Description
The CoroCAM 6D represents a significant advancement in UV imaging technology, building upon the legacy of the CoroCAM Solar Blind UVc imaging system. This innovative device has been meticulously redesigned with a focus on cost efficiency, achieved through cutting-edge design techniques. One of the standout improvements is its enhanced sensitivity, made possible by the integration of newly developed solar blind filter packs and a specially engineered low noise, high sensitivity detector. These advancements ensure that the CoroCAM 6D delivers exceptional performance in detecting even the smallest corona discharges.
In addition to its improved sensitivity, the CoroCAM 6D features modernized electronics that contribute to a reduction in weight, system noise, and overall size. This makes the device more portable and user-friendly, without compromising on its powerful capabilities. The camera can be factory fitted with an optional motorized module, allowing it to operate in both Solar Blind (SB) and Non-Solar Blind (NSB) modes. The NSB mode is particularly noteworthy, as it removes the SB filter from the light path, enabling more UV light to reach the detector and significantly boosting the camera's sensitivity. However, it is important to note that the NSB mode is designed for use only at night or indoors.
The CoroCAM 6D is equipped with a high sensitivity detector capable of detecting UVC emissions down to incredibly low levels, ensuring precise and reliable detection of corona discharges. The device also offers flexibility in image optimization, with settings for UV gain, threshold, or integration. Furthermore, the camera's design includes a high sensitivity color video camera with impressive resolution and low-light capabilities, allowing it to capture clear images even under near-dark conditions. The synchronized UV and visible zoom, along with automatic or manual focus controls, enhance the user experience by providing detailed and accurate imaging.
Designed for ease of use, the CoroCAM 6D features a robust, variable angle, color LED backlit LCD display optimized for daylight use, ensuring that inspections can be conducted with ease and precision. The on-screen display provides all relevant information, and the UV overlay can be customized in terms of color and translucency to highlight the discharge source effectively. With integrated GPS, onboard recording capabilities, and easily replaceable batteries, the CoroCAM 6D is a versatile and reliable tool for professionals in the field of UV imaging.
