Radiation Tolerant Video Camera

D40 Radiation Tolerant Camera

 

Configurable radiation tolerant cameras for inspection in highly radioactive environments. Available with a wide range of interchangeable viewing heads and lens for various inspection tasks.

The D40 radiation tolerant camera is one of the most sophisticated and versatile cameras in the world. The non-browning optical components and remotely located electronics allow this video camera to withstand irradiation dose up to 2 x 108 RAD without sacrificing video quality. In addition, with a diameter of just 40 mm, the D40 radiation tolerant camera can be maneuvered into confined spaces for inspection.

The D40 radiation tolerant cameras are available with a wide range of interchangeable viewing heads and lenses for various inspection tasks. Options include frontal or right angle viewing lenses equipped with or without integrated LED lights, a continuous rotation unit and a 5:1 optical zoom lens.

Other radiation tolerant video camera features include: a 2X analog zoom, auto-iris, auto-exposure, and edge enhancement. The analog zoom allows the operator to see small details of the inspected object without the pixelization effects of digital zoom. Auto-iris provides optimum contrast of the image while auto-exposure optimizes light intensity, camera iris and AGC. Edge enhancement function enhances the sharpness of the small and low contrast details. These features act in unison to create the hightest quality video possible for many different applications.

The D40 radiation tolerant cameras are ideally suited for high radiation nuclear related applications. The underwater camera's stainless steel housing is corrosion resistant and completely sealed for in-air and up to 40 m (130 ft) depth underwater. It is built with smooth surfaces to allow for easy decontamination. The D40 radiation tolerant cameras are designed with a quick and simple tube replacement methodology that includes only three potentiometer adjustments with a screwdriver at the CCU.

The D40 radiation tolerant cameras are designed and manufactured to meet stringent quality standards. All stages of the production cycle are rigorously controlled from component receipt to factory acceptance test. The result is a rugged, robust and reliable radiation tolerant camera system.
