Bosch Security Systems Inc., Fairport, N.J., introduced the Extreme Series Camera EX65 model Explosion Protected. The high-performance, affordable camera holds international explosion protected certifications to provide safe surveillance for hazardous locations, including oil and gas, petrochemical and chemical facilities.

Designed for extreme environment operation, the camera’s electropolished 316L stainless steel construction protects it from corrosion by reducing the risk of imbedded contamination — making it ideal for offshore applications. It is also available in anodized aluminum for onshore environments, with both housings providing NEMA 4X and IP67 ratings to safeguard the equipment from harsh weather conditions. The camera can withstand temperatures from -58-deg. F to 140-deg. F.

Featuring powerful Dinion 2X Day/Night technology, the Extreme Series Camera EX65 model delivers uncompromising surveillance in all lighting. The cameras also feature Smart Backlight Compensation (BLC) to optimize light levels for objects of interest in areas with a bright background.

An available explosion protected infrared illuminator, supplied separately, further enhances around-the-clock surveillance by delivering clear images even in complete darkness. 

The Extreme Series Camera EX65 model has an integrated junction box, a one-piece design and multiple mounting options that make installation fast and easy. With support for Bosch’s Bilinx communication, the Extreme Series Camera EX65 model also allows customers to remotely configure and control the camera without additional cabling.
