  • EXTREMELY DURABLE
  • RATED TO 250 METERS
  • CRISP, WIDE-ANGLE IMAGE

Summary

The SS-126C video camera with built-in LED lighting is DeepSea's smallest color video camera. The SS-126C is designed to withstand the rigors of day-to-day inspection in confined areas where environmental and mechanical shock are unavoidable.

The SS-126C's housing is constructed from stainless steel for maximum durability and will not wear in contact with tough materials such as cast iron. A sapphire crystal lens port that can only be scratched by diamond or carbide. Built into the camera are 30 ultra bright-white LEDs protected by a smooth, chip and crack resistant window. LED lighting provides powerful and virtually indestructible illumination over thousands of hours of use. The 1/3" lens is fixed-focus, meaning there are no moving parts to break loose or wear. Each SS-126C is factory pressure-tested and guaranteed to 250 meters underwater.

The SS-126C has applications in pipe and borehole inspection, fixed-mount monitoring, tank and void inspection, in fisheries and aquaculture, or just about any confined space with access over 1.26 inches. It is also ideal for inspection of machinery and and engineering spaces both on land and aboard ship. It is an economical solution for applications that previously required very expensive and temperamental remote CCD cameras. The SS-126C can be used alone as a drop system, affixed to tools or remote manipulators, and other equipment.

A choice of three cables are available including RG-59 triax, a micro-triax with a tough kevlar braid, and a flexible fiberglass push cable that allows the camera to be pushed through multiple bends up to 61 meters (200 ft.) in pipe as small as 3 cm (1.25 in.). Several camera control options are available, ranging from a basic power supply to an integrated power and video display unit with audio and video recording.

Power & Viewing
SS-126C heads are ideally suited to work as a system with our family of controllers, which include the ability to vary the LED light intensity, view the image with high resolution monitors, output the video signal to other monitors and VCRs, or make video recordings with Hands-Free audio overlay.
Power+
(P+) 120 vac/60 Hz (or 220 vac/50 Hz) to ~12 vdc power supply. Includes direct connection for SS3ILMP terminated cables. RCA video output interfaces with customer-supplied monitors and VCRs. Variable LED intensity controller allows fine adjustment of lighting for different conditions. A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) is included on the AC cord for added safety.
(M+) A P+ with high-resolution surveillance monitor (>850 TV lines) enclosed in a rugged, aluminum case. A metal sunshade folds down to protect the CRT screen and front panel controls during transport. A tilt-stand improves viewing angle when system is on the ground. Includes direct connection for TOP/SS-terminated cables. Variable LED intensity controller allows fine adjustment of lighting for different conditions. Video in/out jacks allow hook up to external devices such as VCRs, camcorders and other remote monitors. A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) is included on the AC cord for added safety.
(M+VCR) An M+ with added VHS VCR and Hands-Free audio recording. Video/audio out jacks, CB mike input jacks, front-panel wireless microphone and playback speaker, one-button monitor/record/play
