Spectra®V was designed with ease of installation and ease of maintenance
in mind. Each dome system consistsof three components: a back box, a dome
drive, and a lower dome. These three system components are interchangeable with other Spectra V dome systems, making retrofitting and application
adjustments simple. Also, dome drives and lower domes can be removed and
replaced reducing maintenance time.
Back Box
Spectra V back box options include the following models: environmental
pendant. The Spectra V Series can also be ordered with heavy-duty,
pressurized, and stainless steel back box options (refer to the appropriate
product specification sheets for more information). Each back box model
features built-in back box memory to store camera and location-specific
dome settings, including labels, presets, patterns, and zones. A passive UTPcircuit is located on the door assembly for convenient video transmission
through twisted pair wire.
Dome Drive
The Spectra V dome drive’s unique integrated optics package incorporates
many advanced features that allow the system to produce high quality video
in the most difficult environments. All cameras in Spectra V dome drives
feature LowLight™technology allowing the cameras to compensate for
scenes where minimal light is present. The cameras feature built-in motion
detection and advanced WDR that enables the system to compensate for
scenes where dramatic contrasts in lighting are present.
Lower Dome
Special consideration was taken when designing the Spectra V lower dome
bubble to ensure that an optimal optical relationship between the lens and
bubble was achieved, providing crystal clear video at long focal lengths.
Dome Systems
Spectra V dome systems feature many software enhancements that increase
performance and make configuration and operation easy. An internal
scheduling clock allows for the scheduling of presetsandpatterns.Window
blanking enables a user to configure up to eight, four-sided, user-defined
privacy areas. Password protection prevents unauthorized users from
changing the system settings. Configurable on-screen compass and tiltdisplay provides positioning information when needed. Intuitive multilingual
on-screen menus can be displayed in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian,
French, German, Russian, Polish, Turkish, and Czech.
Spectra V’s variable speed capabilities range from a smooth,fastpan motion of
400 degrees per second to a smooth “creep” speed of 0.1 degree per second.
The system is capable of continuous 360 degrees rotation and has an “autoflip” feature that allows the dome to rotate 180 degrees and reposition itself
for uninterrupted viewing of any subject that passesdirectly beneath the dome.
Durability
Pelco’s Pressurized and Stainless Steel options are designed for harsh
environmental installations. The Stainless Steel option meets NEMA Type 4X
and IP66 standards. The components (back box and lower dome) provide added
protection against corrosive conditions. The IDM4012SS mount is designed
specifically for the Stainless Steel Spectra V and features an all stainless steel
construction and conduit access in the bottom and back of the mount.
Pelco’s Pressurized Spectra V option provides ultimate protection of the
camera optics and electronics from moisture, corrosive gases, and airborne
contaminants, meeting NEMA Type 6P and IP67 standards when installed
properly. Domes are pressurized with dry nitrogen before or after installation to
stabilize the internal environment. Temperature, pressure, and dew point
sensors are placed inside the system to send “Alert” messages when
conditions are beyond factory-set limits and allow for real time on-screen
monitoring. The lower dome features an innovative single captivated fastener,
O-ring seal, and a stainless steel V-band to create an easy and reliablepressure
seal. Accessible on the lower dome trim ring is a Schrader valve for system
purgingandapressurereliefvalve.ThePressurized Spectra V SE Series is
supplied with a pre-wired cable with mating connector. The cable includes all
wires for system functionality, including power, alarms, auxiliaries, coaxial
video, UTP video, and serial control.
