Diakont MicroCam - Utility Camera
The MicroCam offers the perfect mix of color imaging capabilities, small size, lighting, radiation tolerance, and economy. Due to its compact diameter of just 1.125” (29mm), this camera is perfectly suited for monitoring reactor activities in dry and submerged confined areas with relatively low dose rates.
- Low-cost
- 420 H-TVL video resolution
- Color video camera for monitoring reactor maintenance
- Exceptional image quality in low light with integrated LEDs
- Compact form factor: 1.13” diameter x 5” length
Due to its compact diameter of 1.13” (29mm), this camera is perfectly suited for monitoring reactor activities in confined areas with dry and/or submerged environments and low dose rates. Being an economically friendly choice, the MicroCam is listed at a lower cost than other small-diameter cameras on the market.
This camera is specifically engineered to meet the needs of reactor services and outage teams. Every detail and fidelity remains strong throughout the range of distances, radiation levels, and environmental and lighting conditions. Being environmentally sealed, the MircoCam also has an ultra-wide vibration spec, allowing operation up to 200 feet underwater while staying highly resistant to impact. Additionally, it incorporates a state-of-the-art APS sensor with impressive picture quality, low-light capabilities, and tolerance to radiation.
A “Plug and Play” Solution
With zero tuning or setup required, this camera is designed for effortless operation. Technicians using the MicroCam don’t have to worry about camera adjustments; the iris and focus operate independently. This utility tool simply needs to be plugged in, and it’s ready to go.
