FAQ
What ACTi camera models are compatible with this housing?
The PMAX-0200 housing is specifically designed for ACTi surveillance network cameras including the ACM-5611, TCM-5311, and TCM-5611 models. These cameras fit securely within the enclosure without requiring modifications, ensuring proper mounting alignment and full functionality in outdoor environments.
How does the heater and fan system protect my camera?
The integrated heater prevents frost formation and condensation on the camera lens during cold weather, maintaining clear imaging. The fan actively dissipates heat during warm conditions to prevent overheating that can degrade camera performance or cause premature component failure. This climate control extends camera operational life in temperature-variable outdoor installations.
Is this housing suitable for extreme weather conditions?
Yes, the PMAX-0200 is designed for outdoor use and provides weatherproof protection against rain, snow, dust, and humidity. The active temperature regulation system ensures cameras remain within their operational temperature range even during seasonal extremes, making it suitable for year-round surveillance in most climate zones.
What power requirements does this housing have?
This housing operates on 110V power, making it compatible with standard North American electrical infrastructure. The voltage supports both the enclosure's climate control systems and the connected camera, though cameras may have separate power requirements that should be verified during installation planning.
What are the physical dimensions and weight of this housing?
The housing measures 5.51 inches in height, 5.79 inches in width, and 18.50 inches in depth (140 × 147 × 470 mm). It weighs approximately 2.34 kg, providing a substantial yet manageable enclosure that offers adequate internal space for camera mounting while maintaining a compact external profile suitable for various installation locations.
Can this housing be used in indoor environments?
While primarily designed for outdoor deployment, the PMAX-0200 can be used indoors in environments requiring climate control or additional physical protection for cameras. However, its outdoor-rated construction and temperature regulation systems are optimized for external conditions where weather exposure and temperature fluctuations are significant factors.
