Clover Electronics Ccm636 Ultra Miniature

This camera utilizes a high-end 0.33-inch Panasonic CCD (charge-coupled device) sensor, with a solution of 512-by-492 pixels or 420 TVL (TV lines). The CCM636 includes a 3.6mm lens, has a usable illumination down to 0.5 Lux, and a better-than 46 dB S/N (signal to noise) ratio. The unit’s built-in electronic automati iris control, built-in automatic backlight compensation, low-illumination function, and exposure times ranging from 1/60 to 1/100,000 of a second make sure even higher picture quality with user-definable parameters. This camera may provide a frame rate of up to 30 frames-per-second (frames per second), equivalent to a 460-NTSC analog video. Powered by way of a 12-volt external DC power supply (included), it may operate in temperatures from -10 to 50-degrees Celsius.

Technical Features:

• Sensitivity: down to 0.5 Lux
• S/N ratio: more than 46 dB
• Frame rate: up to 30 frames per second
• Resolution: up to 512 by 492 pixels or 420 TVL
• Operating temperature: -10 to 50 degrees Celsius
• Dimensions: approximately 3 x 2 x 3 centimeters (W x D x H)

Overall, the Clover CCM636 provides you with a reliable, easy-to-use and unobtrusive camera that may supplement most any monitoring system. Quick and easy to install, this fabulously compact camera comes wholly gathered and ready to use, and includes an adaptable set of functions to aid you get the surveillance you need disregarding of the lighting environment. Users must note, however, that the CCD sensor may become permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or halogen light.

About Surveillance Camera Technical Features
Lux rating is the measurement used to indicate how sensible a camera is to light, and stands for the level of light reflected off a piece of paper by a candle from one meter away. Thus a sensitivity of three Lux would mean a camera could generate an adequate for the purpose picture of a piece-of-paper-sized object that was illuminated by the equivalent of three candles from one meter away. The lower the Lux level, the better the camera’s capacity to work in low-light conditions. The camera’s resolution ought to be dandier than or equivalent to the solution supported by the system’s recorder or monitor. The S/N, or signal to noise ratio, is an essential measure of a camera’s quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring causes “noise” which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera with a wide dynamic range is ideal, particularly for recording areas in which both indoor and outdoor light are present. CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to noise. CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors offer less effigy quality, but are normally more cost-effective and energy efficient.
