Honeywell’s HCM574E black and white camera is ideal for surveillance
applications with limited light conditions. Designed for maximum value, the
HCM574E saves you time and money through its easy installation and reliable
performance. This camera's off-the-shelf feature sets are developed for sharp
picture quality, and they require little to no adjustment once installed.
The HCM574E supports direct-drive and drive-style Auto Iris lenses to ensure
video quality in changing light conditions. Regardless of lens type, attachment is
simple with a built-in C/CS mounting ring and four-pin Auto Iris connector
standard. Power connection is also a snap with built-in push terminals that save
installation time and eliminate the need for a screwdriver.
The HCM574E includes an automatic electronic shutter for light level changes
and an automatic backlight compensation option for viewing objects in the
foreground with bright light in the background. The HCM574E produces 580 TV
lines of resolution down to 0.15 lux.
Market Opportunities
The Honeywell HCM574E is designed for general cost effective high resolution
surveillance applications where object identification and recognition are required
in low light applications. This includes general indoor and outdoor surveillance
applications in retail, educational, financial, and other commercial markets. For
extremely dark applications the HCM574E can take advantage of external
infrared illumination to further improve low light sensitivity.
