Sony XC-E User Manual

The XC-E Series are compact, light-weight one-piece black and white cameras incorporating the latest 1/2 and 1/3 type Interline (IT) CCD which produces new levels of picture detail. With dimensions of 29 x 29 x 30 mm*, these cameras can easily be installed in places where installation was previously difficult for other larger cameras.

The XC-E Series offer three different model ranges that only differ in spectral sensitivity as to suit various application environments. The XC-ES Series (XC-ES50/ES50CE, XC-ES50L/ES50LCE, XC-ES51/ES51CE and XC-ES30/ES30CE) are standard models for general use under visible light conditions. The XC-EI Series (XC-EI50/EI50CE and XC-EI30/EI30CE) offer excellent near-infrared sensitivity. Under low light conditions or when used with IR LED illumination systems, these cameras provide clear images. The XC-EU Series (XC-EU50/EU50CE) offer near-ultraviolet sensitivity in the i-line, or 365 nm, range. The short wavelength allows the XC-EU Series to capture very fine detail. All models have identical dimensions and controls, making them easy to interchange. A variety of settings are available for differing subject and lighting conditions. All camera control switches are accessible from the outside of the camera. Excellent vibration and shock characteristics make these cameras ideal for demanding machine vision applications.

* The XC-ES50L/ES50LCE, which are L-type versions of the XC-ES50/

ES50CE, measure 29 (W) x 42.5 (H) x 43.8 (D) mm.

Note following differences between models:

• XC-EI models are more sensitive than XC-ES models, not only in near-IR range but in visible range as well.

• XC-ES51/ES51CE has an improved sensitivity over XC-ES50/ES50CE.

• XC-EU models are only sensitive in near-UV range and are not susceptable to disturbance from surrounding visible light.

• XC-ES50L/ES50LCE include an IR Cut Filter.

The XC-EU50/EU50CE models are compact and light-weight cameras that have near-ultraviolet sensitivity in the i-line, or 365 nm, range. Examples of typical application areas are PCB and solder inspection, document proofing, microscopy, medical and cosmetics applications. Using UV lighting, the short wavelength allows the XC-EU50/EU50CE models to capture clearly very fine detail and surface structures, which cannot be detected using visible or IR lighting, including very small scratches, dust or blemishes, as well as special fluorescent materials.
