The real-time automatic scanning feature allows SAFETIS EV to continuously monitor and analyze the environment, performing up to 9 scans per second. This high scanning rate ensures high accuracy and immediate response to any changes in the monitored area, which is key for effective prevention and detection of risks
INNOVATIVE DETECTION CAPABILITIES SAFETIS EV
SAFETIS EV represents a revolutionary step in the world of thermal imaging sensors, offering an unprecedented level of detection capabilities for various applications. At the core of this system are 19,200 active temperature sensors, enabling rapid and precise detection of temperature changes in real-time. This technology offers exceptional sensitivity and resolution, which is crucial for the quick identification and response to potential risks or unusual temperature fluctuations.
With the ability to scan up to nine times per second, SAFETIS EV can monitor environments with high frequency, ensuring immediate response to any changes. This high scanning frequency is essential in situations where rapid detection is required, such as in industrial facilities, warehouses, or security applications.
EFFECTIVE MONITORING
For optimal results with SAFETIS EV, careful consideration of the camera’s placement is essential. It’s important for the camera to be positioned in a way that effectively monitors the desired area without losing detail. This means avoiding the attempt to cover as large an area of the warehouse as possible, as this would lead to a reduction in detail and detection efficiency.
The key is optimal placement, which can be determined using our Field of View (FOV) calculator. This tool allows customers to visualize how large an area the camera will cover, considering an mrad of 6.2, meaning the size of one pixel on the measured surface is 6.2 mm per meter.
When selecting the installation site, it’s also important to consider the mounting method. SAFETIS EV is designed for easy installation, thanks to its compact dimensions and light weight of under 300 grams. This allows for installation on various types of walls and ceilings without the need for special equipment or complicated mounting work.
Regarding the SAFETIS EV software, it focuses on basic but efficient functions of a thermal imaging sensor. It allows users to set parameters such as warning and critical temperature levels, and then the sensor continuously monitors these values. Although the software may not offer complex functions for long-term monitoring of temperature trends and generating detailed reports, its main strength is simplicity and reliability in detecting temperature changes, which is key for identifying and preventing potential risks.
COMPATIBILITY AND CONNECTIVITY
The connectivity and communication of SAFETIS EV with other systems are crucial aspects of its functionality and efficiency. This thermal imaging sensor utilizes the Modbus RTU protocol, accessible via RS485 and Ethernet. Modbus RTU can be compared to a common language like English, in the sense that it is a standard communication protocol understood and utilized by various devices. This protocol allows SAFETIS EV to effectively communicate with different control systems and devices, similar to how two people speaking the same language understand each other.
In this analogy, RS485 and Ethernet represent different ways these “two people” can communicate – either “telephonically” (RS485) or “in person” (Ethernet). This analogy helps understand that SAFETIS EV can communicate in different ways, depending on what is most suitable for a given application.
Regarding software, SAFETIS EV comes with service software that allows users to set up and configure the sensor. However, this software is just one of the options available. Thanks to the standardized nature of the Modbus RTU protocol, customers have the option to use other compatible software for configuring and managing the sensor. This means they are not limited to only the software provided by the manufacturer, enhancing the flexibility and adaptability of SAFETIS EV for various applications and user needs. This open approach to connectivity and configuration is key to the sensor’s wide range of practical uses.
DURABLE CONSTRUCTION
The durability of the SAFETIS EV camera is one of its key aspects, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, especially in demanding industrial and outdoor environments. The camera is designed to withstand extreme conditions, crucial for reliable and long-term operation.
The first element of its durability is the robust construction of the camera. SAFETIS EV is equipped with a sturdy and durable aluminum body, effectively protecting the internal components from mechanical damage, such as impacts, vibrations, or falls. This material not only increases the device’s durability but also ensures its long-term endurance and resistance to corrosion, which is important in environments with high humidity or aggressive chemicals.
Another important aspect of its durability is the IP64 protection rating that SAFETIS EV provides. This rating means that the device is protected against dust and splashing water from any direction. This feature is essential for use in industrial environments, where the device may be exposed to dusty conditions or weather elements.
In addition to physical resilience, SAFETIS EV is also designed to withstand a wide range of operating temperatures. This allows for its reliable use in various climatic conditions, from freezing temperatures to extreme heat. The ability to function safely and efficiently across such a wide temperature range is key for applications where the sensor is exposed to diverse and sometimes unpredictable environments.
Combined, these features make SAFETIS EV an exceptionally durable solution for thermal monitoring. Whether installed in industrial halls, outdoors, or in other challenging environments, SAFETIS EV is capable of withstanding physical and environmental challenges, ensuring reliable performance over a long period.
