Redvision X-SERIES™ take toughness to another level
Vandal-resistance is the most common toughness rating for CCTV products. It is, in fact, a measure of impact resistance, as defined in European standard EN 62262. Products are issued with an IK rating, from IK 00 denoting no impact protection, through to IK10, the maximum. An IK10 product will resist an impact from a 5kg steel mass dropping or swinging into it, from 500mm. Redvision believes IK10 is not exacting enough. Paul Hucker, Managing Director of Redvision, explains, “A camera might experience far greater forces in real applications. In our own impact testing we swing a 14lb (6.5Kg) sledge hammer, on a 2m handle, at the camera with great force a number of times. The camera resists the impact and... Read More
Redvision has successful Intersec 2016
Redvision followed a successful Intersec Dubai exhibition with the appointment of a number of new, international distributors and value-added resellers (VARs). Intersec is the leading exhibition for the Security & Safety industry in the MENA region. The January 2016 exhibition featured 1,280 exhibitors and more than 31,100 visitors from 127 countries. Before attending Intersec, Redvision used extensive independent testing to verify that its X-SERIES™ cameras would tolerate the regions’ hotter climates, without compromising product functionality, longevity or warranty. The X-SERIES™ passed tests convincingly, confirming the cameras high-quality construction and efficient power management. It also reflected Redvision’s thorough approach to entering a new market, befitting of its market-leading position CCTV manufacturer status. “Intersec enabled Redvision to showcase the X-SERIES™ rugged PTZ...

Don’t feel the heat, use Redvision X-SERIES™ cameras
Before entering the African, Middle Eastern and Southern European markets, Redvision has established its X-SERIES™ camera’s performance in hotter climate conditions. Exceeding the operating temperature of an electrical and electronic product, or the temperature tolerance of the components within it, dramatically shortens its life and jeopardizes warranties. The product operating temperature will be above the ambient climatic temperature, due to the heat generated by components. In the X-SERIES™, the prime contributors are the PTZ motor, LED illuminators and power supply. Exposure to direct sunlight also has a significant effect. Redvision approached TÜV SÜD, a world-leading provider of testing and product certification to carry out a series of independent tests on the X-SERIES™, simulating operation in hotter climates. The test ran... Read More
