2. Product Overview
The LPRB922 is a high-performance plate-capture camera, equipped with a 1/3” SONY™ CCD.
Outfitted with powerful 850 nm IR, the LPRB922 works perfectly even in total darkness to
deliver clear plate images. Its varifocal IR-corrected lens keeps it in focus day and night,
optimizing performance even in very low light conditions. In short, the LPRB922 provides the
kind of reliability and round-the-clock surveillance-and-capture capabilities crucial to
maximizing the efficiency of LPR applications.
High Contrast Image
The LPRB922 features high-contrast imaging performance that delivers sharp, clear licenseplate captures, even of vehicles moving at 55 MPH, in bad weather, and in low-light
conditions.
Powerful IR
Its powerful IR functionality and IR-corrected lens deliver perfect image captures and
outstanding images all day long. It is also equipped with a high-power LED to help minimize
energy usage.
Wide Range Capture
Its built-in 9-22mm lens captures a wide 10-27 ft. field.
Rain Guard/ Extendable Sunshield
The camera’s rain guard and extendable sunshield minimize the effects of rain and sunlight
on image quality.
Easy Installation
The cable-management bracket enables easy installation in any location, including walls,
surfaces, and ceilings.
Note: Because of the special nature of this camera, it will only show pictures
of license plates. All other items in the camera's field of view will be blacked out.
