1 General Information
1.1 Description
Thank you for choosing the optris® Outdoor protective housing.
The outdoor protective housing is an ideal complement for the PI/Xi camera, CSlaser LT, CTlaser LT and the
USB server for applications with additional influences of different kinds. It protects the devices among things
like dirt, dust, and moisture. The outdoor protective housing can be used for any PI camera (lenses up to
90° FOV) and for CSlaser LT and CTlaser LT. The integrated heating and the blower result in an extended
operating temperature. An optional visual camera is also available and can be also integrated to your process.
• Avoid abrupt changes of the ambient temperature.
• Avoid mechanical violence – this may destroy the system (expiry of warranty).
• If you have any problems or questions, please contact our service department.
Read the manual carefully before the initial start-up. The producer reserves the right to change
the herein described specifications in case of technical advance of the product.

2.4 Air Purge Laminar
The lens must be always kept clean from dust, smoke, fumes, and other contaminants in order to avoid reading
errors. These effects can be reduced by using an air purge laminar. Make sure to use oil-free, technically clean
air only.
The needed amount of air (approx. 20...100 l/min.) depends on the application and the installation
conditions on-site. Pipe connection of air purge laminar is 6x4 mm.

3 Installation
3.1 Electrical installation (w/o visible camera)
Loosen the two screws and open the outdoor protective housing, as shown in Figure 4.
Figure 4: Opening the housing
Inside the protective housing is the electronic circuit board, where all loads are connected (see Figure 3). The
heating element and the fan are already integrated and connected. To supply the outdoor protective housing

with voltage, you must connect a 24 V line. This is connected to the marked side of the board. Observe the
correct polarity and ensure that no voltage is present. The USB server and the industrial PIF are connected to
the board as shown and are supplied by 24 V.
To get the cables into the housing, you must loosen the two cable glands, as shown in Figure 6. On the left
side is a cable gland with 8 mm sealing insert and on the right is a cable gland with two 6 mm sealing inserts.
It is recommended to pull the Ethernet cable or the USB cable through the 8 mm sealing insert. The PIF cable
and the 24 V cable are passed through the two 6 mm sealing inserts.

washer DIN125A-6,4 A2 (Figure 17).
• Note that the connector is facing
outward to allow you to connect the
cable.

Accessoires 23-
4 Accessoires
4.1 Visual Camera
In addition to an infrared image, you can integrate a visual image into your process and see simultaneous
two images, infrared with all the temperature information and visual image. This is an ideal combination for
fire prevention and condition monitoring applications. The visual image has a resolution of maximum 1920 x
1080 pixels. We recommend using this combination with an USB server, in this case you can use the
infrared camera and the visual camera just with one network cable, the system can be powered over
ethernet. Both images can be integrated easily to your video surveillance software, e.g.: iSpy, or other.
4.2 Industrial Process Interface (PIF)
In addition to the installation of the camera and the USB server, the industrial PIF (without housing) can be
integrated into the outdoor protective housing as shown in Figure 20. The industrial PIF without housing can
be purchased under the order number ACCJAPIPIFMA (for PI series and Xi 400) or under ACOPHXIPIF
(Xi 80/ 410).
Figure 20: Outdoor protective housing with industrial PIF

Before the industrial PIF is attached, the camera must be installed in the outdoor protective
housing (see chapter 3.4 Mounting of the PI camera or 3.5 Mounting of the Xi camera).
The outdoor protective housing can be attached to
a wall using a wall mount. This is available as an
option under the part number ACOPHWM.
