Caution!
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DISCONNECT THE POWER SOURCE WHILE INSTALLING THE DEVICE.
Caution!
Installation must be made by qualified personnel and conform to ANSI/NFPA 70 (the National Electrical Code® (NEC)), Canadian Electrical Code, Part I (also called CE Code or CSA C22.1), and all applicable local codes. Bosch Security Systems accepts no liability for any damages or losses caused by incorrect or improper installation.
Warning!
INSTALL EXTERNAL INTERCONNECTING CABLES IN ACCORDANCE TO NEC, ANSI/NFPA70 (FOR US APPLICATION) AND CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE, PART I, CSA C22.1 (FOR CAN APPLICATION) AND IN ACCORDANCE TO LOCAL COUNTRY CODES FOR ALL OTHER COUNTRIES. BRANCH CIRCUIT PROTECTION INCORPORATING A 20 A, 2-POLE LISTED CIRCUIT BREAKER OR BRANCH RATED FUSES ARE REQUIRED AS PART OF THE BUILDING INSTALLATION. A READILY ACCESSIBLE 2-POLE DISCONNECT DEVICE WITH A CONTACT SEPARATION OF AT LEAST 3 mm MUST BE INCORPORATED.
Warning!
ROUTING OF EXTERNAL WIRING MUST BE DONE THROUGH A PERMANENTLY EARTHED METAL CONDUIT.
Warning!
THE CAMERA MUST BE MOUNTED DIRECTLY AND PERMANENTLY TO A NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE.
Warning!
Risk of bodily injury Do not put a canted (45°) camera in an upright position on the camera base or on an unsecured DCA. In this position, the camera can fall over and can cause injury or be damaged. Put the canted camera on its side until installation.
Do not open the camera unit. Doing so will invalidate the warranty. – Use common-sense safety precautions, especially in situations where there could be risk
of injury if any part of the assembly becomes detached and falls. Bosch recommends using the hinged DCA, which allows installers to “hang” the MIC camera temporarily on the DCA to make electrical connections, before bolting the camera to the DCA.
Ensure that the unit case is properly earthed. If the product is at risk of being struck by
lightning, ensure that earth bonding connections are made correctly to the mounting of the base of the unit.
Do not point the camera at the sun. Bosch Security Systems will not be liable for any
damage to cameras that have been pointed directly at the sun.

Before transporting, supply power to the camera and rotate the camera head so that the
window points toward the base. This position of the camera head will help to protect the wiper and the window during transit.
Make sure that the installation conditions comply with the specified stresses of vibration
and shock as mentioned in the datasheet.
Warning!
Do not manually back drive the camera The motor/gear head combinations used in the MIC cameras were designed to provide smooth pan/tilt movement of the camera during powered operation. The gear heads were not specifically designed to be manually “back-driven” under any circumstance. Although it might be possible to do so on unpowered units, there is no guarantee that “back­driving” will be possible on every unit. Some units may even enter a “locked-up” mechanical state. If the camera becomes “locked-up,” simply apply power to the camera. The pan/tilt functions of the camera should now operate properly.
Warning!
Moving parts! Moving parts may result in risk of injury, therefore, the device should be mounted so that it is accessible only to the technician/installer.
Notice!
Risk of injury or damage To prevent injury to your hands or damage to the wiper, do not touch the wiper with your hands, especially when the wiper is moving.
Notice!
Always use a shielded twisted pair (STP) connection cable and a shielded RJ45 network cable connector where the camera is used outdoors or the network cable is routed outdoors. Always use shielded cables/connectors in demanding indoor electrical environments where the network cable is located in parallel with electrical mains supply cables, or where large inductive loads such as motors or contactors are near the camera or its cable.
Notice!
Bosch recommends the use of surge/lightning protection devices (sourced locally) to protect network and power cables and the camera installation site. Refer to NFPA 780, Class 1 & 2, UL96A, or the equivalent code appropriate for your country/region, and to local building codes. Refer also to the installation instructions of each device (surge protector where the cable enters the building, midspan, and camera).
Notice!
Outdoor installation For details about the proper configuration for installing your camera outdoors with surge and lightning protection, refer to Best Practices for Outdoor Installation, page 56.
Notice!
To maintain the Type 6P rating when the camera is mounted to a MIC-DCA, installers must make sure that the user-supplied cable glands or conduit connections have Type 6P ratings.

1.6 Important Notices - Illumination Safety

The text in this section applies only to cameras which have the optional illuminator accessory.
The IEC 62471 provides the methods to determine the risk group of any lamp or any product incorporating a lamp. The risk groups in IEC 62471 indicate the degree of risk from potential optical radiation hazards. The risk groups were developed based upon decades of lamp use experience and the analysis of accidental injuries related to optical radiation emission. EXEMPT Group – no optical hazard is considered reasonably foreseeable, even for continuous, unrestricted use. Typical examples are most frosted incandescent lamps and fluorescent lamps used in domestic applications. Risk Group 1 – products are safe for most use applications, except for very prolonged exposures where direct ocular exposures may be expected. An example of Risk Group 1 is a domestic battery operated torch (flashlight). Exposure Hazard Value (EHV) is a ratio of the Exposure Level (distance, exposure time) to Exposure Limit Value (ELV). When EHV is greater than 1, the device has exceeded the Exposure Limit Values for a particular Risk Group. The ELV is the level where optical radiation to the eye or skin is not expected to result in adverse biological effects. The Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance from the source at which the Exposure Level equals the appropriate ELV. In other words, when EHV=1 for a particular Risk Group. Regarding the Cornea / Lens infrared hazard of this product, the Exposure Hazard Value (EHV) at a test distance of 200mm is 2.19 based on EXEMPT Group exposure limits. The EHV based on Risk Group 1 limits is 0.386. The HD for the Exempt Group is 297 mm. Regarding the Retinal Blue Light hazard, the EHV is 22.9 based on the EXEMPT Group exposure limits and a test distance of 200 mm. The EHV based on Risk Group 1 limits is 0.266. The HD for the Exempt Group is 2675 mm. These values have been summarized in the table below:

5 Mounting

5.1 Mounting Location and Orientation Options

MIC cameras are designed for easy installation in various locations such as directly onto buildings and poles suitable to support CCTV equipment. Select a secure installation location and mounting orientation for the device. Ideally, this is a location where the device cannot be interfered with either intentionally or accidentally. Select a location where the MIC camera will not touch materials such as steel straps or cables. You can install the camera: – onto a MIC-DCA or a MIC wall mount (MIC-WMB) with a MIC shallow conduit adapter
(MIC-SCA). (Never install the wall mount only.) or
directly to a mounting surface using the supplied base gasket and the appropriate
connector kit (sold separately):
MIC-IP67-5PK MIC7000 IP67 Connector Kit To have an installation rated IP67, you must use the appropriate IP67 Connector Kit from Bosch. Confirm that no residual water or moisture is in the bottom of camera. Ground the camera as described in the chapter “Installing a MIC Camera on a Hinged DCA.” The most common type of mounting location is the top of a pole suitable to support CCTV equipment and that provides a robust mounting platform to minimize camera motion and typically has a large base cabinet for mounting ancillary equipment such as power supplies. Other locations for mounting the camera include the top of a building, the side (wall) of a building, the corner of a building, and under the eave of a building. The camera can also be mounted on the side of a lamp post, pole, or similar column using the Pole Mount Bracket (MIC-PMB). Be aware that lamp posts can often be subject to movement and are not suitable platforms in all conditions or for all applications.
Notice!
Outdoor installation For details about the proper configuration for installing your camera outdoors with surge and lightning protection, refer to Best Practices for Outdoor Installation, page 56.
Ensure that the location has the appropriate clearance from power and lightning conductors, in accordance with NEC725 and NEC800 (CEC Rule 16-224 and CEC Section 60). Do not install the device near: – Any heat sources – Any overhead power lines, power circuits, or electrical lights, or where the device may
contact power lines, circuits, or lights Isolate shielded CAT5e or CAT6 cable from any high voltage power lines in a separate grounded, metal conduit. Refer to the datasheet for test conditions for allowable transients / voltage fluctuations.
Mounting surface recommendations for MIC mounting accessories
The mounting surface should be capable of supporting the combined weight of the MIC camera + MIC Illuminator + MIC mounting accessory (DCA, wall mount, corner bracket, etc.). All expected conditions of load, vibration and temperature should be considered when planning an installation. The material should accommodate a minimum pull-out strength of 275 kg (600 lb). The mounting accessory should be secured to one of the following surfaces:
Bosch Security Systems Installation Manual 2019-11 | 2.1 |
18 en | Mounting MIC IP starlight 7000i
!
Concrete (solid / cast) – Concrete masonry unit (concrete block) – Brick (all types) – Metal (steel / aluminum, minimum 3 mm (0.125 in.) thick) In all situations, Bosch recommends referencing any applicable building codes or professional structural engineering guidelines for a secure installation. 4 Ensure that the selected mounting surface is capable of supporting the combined weight
of the camera and mounting hardware (sold separately) under all expected conditions of load, vibration, wind, and temperature.
Caution!
Risk of lightning strikes If the camera is installed in a highly exposed location where lightning strikes may occur, then Bosch recommends installing a separate lightning conductor within 0.5 m (1.6 ft) of the camera and at least 1.5 m (4.9 ft) higher than the camera. A good earth bonding connection to the camera housing itself will provide protection against damage from secondary strikes. The camera housing itself is constructed to cope with secondary strikes. If the correct lightning protection is applied, then no damage to the internal electronics or camera should result.

5.2 Mounting Options

See the figures that follow for illustrations of the correct and the incorrect mounting orientations of MIC cameras. MIC cameras are designed to be mounted upright (straight up, 90°), inverted (straight down, 90°), or canted upright (ball up, 45°). The tilt limits for the canted unit prevent it from working properly if mounted ball down. See the figures below for illustrations of the correct and the incorrect mounting orientations of MIC cameras.
Correct mounting orientation -
upright, inverted
Note: For canted cameras, ensure that your mounting location provides the necessary clearance (370 mm (14.6 in.)) for the camera head to pan.

5.3 Mounting Bracket Options

Bosch sells a complete series of mounting brackets that support multiple mounting configurations. Always use only Bosch-supplied mounts, which are designed for safe installation of your MIC camera. Refer to the MIC Series Mounting Brackets Installation Guide for complete installation instructions.
Mounting hardware recommendations for MIC mounting accessories
Fasteners are not supplied with the MIC mounting accessories for attachment to the mounting surface. The type of fastener necessary is dependent on the mounting surface. Fasteners can include wedge anchors, sleeve anchors, single expansion anchors, double expansion anchors, machine screws or ‘Thru-Bolting’ with a nut. Fasteners are to be of a structural grade (ISO Class 10.9, SAE Grade 8) and zinc plated for moderate corrosion resistance. When installed in marine or similarly corrosive environments, stainless hardware (A2-800, A4-800) is recommended. Fasteners are to be a minimum diameter of 8 mm (0.3125 in.). All bolts must extend through the mounting surface and be secured with a flat washer, lock washer and nut. All studs must be anchored to concrete or welded to a steel backing plate. In all situations, Bosch recommends referencing any applicable building codes or professional structural engineering guidelines for a secure installation.
Deep Conduit Adapter
