SVEX-HSF-Z Explosion-Proof High-Temperature Camera Housing for Extreme Environments
The SVEX-HSF-Z Explosion-Proof High-Temperature Camera Housing is specifically engineered to protect surveillance systems in extreme heat and explosive atmospheres. Built with stainless steel and equipped with both air- and water-cooling systems, this housing allows sensitive security cameras to operate safely in furnace areas, kilns, steel plants, and other high-temperature industrial applications.
With a certified Ex d IIC T5 GB / DIP A20 TA, T5 explosion-proof rating and an IP68 protection level, the SVEX-HSF-Z is designed for maximum durability, environmental resistance, and certified safety in the harshest environments.
Certified Safety for Hazardous Zones
This model is rated for use in explosive gas and dust environments, providing critical protection in Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21, and Zone 22 classified areas. Certified with the Exd IIC T5 GB / DIP A20 TA, T5 mark, the housing meets global explosion-proof standards, ensuring that internal components are fully isolated from external hazardous atmospheres.
The IP68 ingress protection rating guarantees complete sealing against dust ingress and long-term submersion in water, allowing it to be deployed in corrosive and high-moisture industrial zones without risk to the internal camera components.
Advanced Thermal Protection: Air & Water Cooling
What sets the SVEX-HSF-Z apart is its dual cooling system, designed to maintain safe operating conditions for internal electronics in environments with ambient temperatures as high as 250°C (482°F).
- Air Cooling: Operates effectively in ambient air temperatures from -25°C to +150°C (-13°F to 302°F) with an airflow rate of 0.3–0.6 m³/min and pressure of 0.1–0.2 MPa.
- Water Cooling: Required for extreme high-heat locations, it manages conditions from 0°C to +250°C (32°F to 482°F) with a water flow rate of 0.3 m³/h, water temperature ≤35°C, and pressure ≥0.1 MPa.
- 8mm Thick Viewing Window: With a diameter of 80mm, the thick tempered glass window protects the camera lens from thermal shock and debris impact without compromising image clarity.
These cooling capabilities make the SVEX-HSF-Z ideal for monitoring furnace interiors, smelting operations, and process control in highly volatile heat-intensive industries.
Durable Construction for Industrial Applications
The housing is crafted from stainless steel 304 or optional 316L, ensuring strong corrosion resistance against chemicals, moisture, and aggressive vapors. It includes dual G3/4 or NPT3/4 cable entries, facilitating secure, flexible camera integration.
Key construction and mounting features include:
- Mounting Options: Wall or pole mount for flexible installation
- Weight: 9.1 kg (20 lbs.)
- Outer Dimensions: 374 × 163 × 185 mm
- Internal Space: 260 × 80 × 80 mm, compatible with a range of box, mini-box, and compact IP cameras
Electrical Performance
The SVEX-HSF-Z supports multiple input voltage options for diverse power environments: AC85V ~ AC265V, DC24V, or AC24V. With low power consumption at only 15W, and a working current of 3A, this housing offers energy efficiency while maintaining stable performance.
The power components are engineered for reliable operation in environments with:
- Ambient Pressure: 80 KPa – 106 KPa
- Relative Humidity: ≤95%, non-condensing
Connections are secured via G3/4 threads, providing tight sealing for hazardous location cable entry and conduit.
Ideal Applications
Designed for the toughest surveillance environments, the SVEX-HSF-Z is ideal for:
- Furnace monitoring
- Steel and metal processing
- Cement kilns
- Power plant boilers
- Petrochemical refining
- High-temperature storage facilities
Whether you’re monitoring thermal processes or maintaining visibility in explosion-prone industrial zones, this housing ensures the performance and safety of your critical video systems.
