The Jade UC is a new affordable infra-red camera designed for harsh industrial environments.

Cedip Infrared Systems has a new affordable infra-red camera designed for harsh industrial environments Packaged in a sealed unit, the robust Jade UC offers IP54 standard protection against the ingress of rain and humidity

This makes it the perfect IR camera for automation and machine vision applications including paper production, glass inspection, food processing and plastics manufacturing.

All camera features may be remotely controlled through USB 2.0, Camlink or RS232C standard protocols enabling the Jade UC to easily interface and operate with PCs and third-party frame grabbers.

The high-level programming language used to program the Jade UC allows the camera to be easily integrated into production lines.

Operating with Cedip's intuitive Altair software, the camera provides comprehensive real time image acquisition, post processing and reporting capabilities.

Benefiting from a sensitive microbolometer focal plane array sensor the Jade UC infra-red camera is able to offer high sensitivity, low response time and good image resolution at a truly low price.

Using a focal plane sensor of 320 x 240pixel, operating in the 8-12um waveband, the Jade UC camera offers best-of-class performance with thermal sensitivity of less than 80mK and a thermal response time of less than 4ms.

Operating at up to 100 frames per second at full image, with output digitised over a complete 14bit dynamic range the Jade UC provides the resolution to detect even the smallest area of defect or nonuniformity.

To extend the applications utility of the system a complete range of lenses is available. Request a free brochure from Cedip Infrared Systems ...
