0158

• Description:

The VISULEX K55P-Ex/K55N-Ex is a fixed-lens camera.

During the installation process, the lens of this standard
camera is focused on the outdoor area or facility to be kept
under surveillance (e. g. yard, plant or technical process
elements such as vessels or agitators).
The temperatures specified in the data sheet for the built-in
camera type should be observed so as to ensure trouble-free
operations. A terminal box is provided for connecting the
camera. Important, please note: Under no circumstances
should a camera be used to replace the cover flange or the
complete sight glass fitting, nor should it be used on its own
as a closure for a vessel port.

• Replacing the camera and/or electronics:

Any replacement of the camera module should be carried

out by the manufacturer and/or done at the manufacturer’s
works (F.H. Papenmeier GmbH & Co. KG).

• Mechanical installation:

It is essential to read the information sheet “Important

instructions when using sight glass fittings” before commen­cing installation work.

The camera is attached to the cover flange of a circular sight
glass fitting or flow sight glass or to the slotted cover nut of
a screw-type sight glass using the mounting components.

The lens of the camera should never be exposed to direct

sunlight as this will render it inoperable!

The Visulex camera K55P-Ex/K55N-Ex fits the following

nominal diameters when used together with the appropriate

mounting parts:

• Mounting with hinged bracket:

The hinged bracket is intended for fastening the camera to

the cover flange of a circular sight glass fitting or flow sight
glass or to the slotted cover nut on screw-type sight glass
fittings acc. to DIN 11851.

The hinged bracket is secured to the required bolt circle
using the M8 screw included in the scope of supply which
fits into a blind hole which has previously been tapped
(by operating company). Alternatively, the hinged bracket

can be welded in place.

• Mounting by flanged adapter collar:

The adapter collar is secured to the slotted cover nut (DIN

11851) by welding or screwing it on. The camera is then

positioned on the flange using the screws included in the

scope of supply.
