Description
The xWatch
®
Explosion-Proof Camera Model X7050
produces a high resolution color video picture
using a camera module that is mounted inside
an explosion-proof NEMA 4X rated housing. The
device’s explosion-proof rating makes it suitable for
Class I, Div. 1, Groups B, C and D locations. The
camera can be used alone or in combination with fire
and gas detectors in any application that requires
CCTV surveillance capabilities.
The xWatch Camera can be used in any of three
configurations:
• It can be used as a stand alone device to perform
typical CCTV functions.
• The camera module can be retrofitted in place of the
UV tube module in an existing C7050 Flame Detector
to provide basic visual information.
• The camera can be ordered from the factory as a
combined unit with any X-Series flame detector. With
this arrangement, the camera and detector share the
same field of view.
In the event of a fire or gas alarm, the operator can
immediately view the monitored area to determine
whether personnel are present and safe. An accurate
evaluation of the hazard’s size, nature, location and
severity can be determined quickly and safely.
The use of a digital video recorder (DVR) to capture the
event provides a permanent record for future analysis of
what occurred.
Features
• Low cost surveillance of any flame, gas, or toxic
hazard location
• Parallel, non-interfering operation with hazard
detection system
• Easy connection to a video switcher using twisted
pair wiring
• Use existing wiring if suitable
• Easy retrofit into standard C7050 housing
• Simple no tool exchange of the tube module to
camera
• Compact housing for easy installation in small
spaces
• 3 lens options (wide, normal, or narrow) for flexible
field-of-view:
– Wide lens emulates a flame detector’s field of view
– Normal lens is ideal of monitoring general areas
– Narrow lens enables up-close viewing
• Ideally suited for remote and/or inaccessible areas
• Informed, appropriate response to incidents
• Pre- and post-event analysis of video recording
