Input Voltage 117V ## Overview This scientific-grade CCD camera system performs high-sensitivity, low-noise digital image acquisition, specializing in fluorescence and chemiluminescence applications. It operates within microscopy and scientific imaging platforms, interfacing via a dedicated controller unit to a host PC, typically through a PCI-based frame grabber for high-speed data transfer. Connectivity includes external triggering. Common applications span quantitative biological imaging, live-cell observation, and medical diagnostics requiring precise, high-resolution light detection. ## Function Captures high-resolution, low-noise digital images with high sensitivity, converting incident photons into electrical signals and digitizing them for transfer. Provides programmable control over exposure time, gain, and readout parameters to optimize imaging in low-light scientific and industrial applications. ## Platform Designed for integration in industrial and scientific imaging systems requiring high-resolution, low-noise digital CCD imaging. Operates in hermetic vacuum-sealed, Peltier-cooled camera heads to reduce thermal noise and maintain stable performance. Interfaces via 12-bit digital outputs with RS-422A and RS-232C for full remote control of camera functions; supports external TTL trigger inputs for precise exposure and readout synchronization. Connects using C-mount lens systems and interfaces to controllers delivering frame rates up to approximately 45 fps with digital output compatible with machine vision and microscopy applications. Suitable for high dynamic range scanning, low light level imaging, and real-time image acquisition in controlled environmental conditions. ## Application High-performance cooled digital CCD camera system with integrated controller, designed for precision scientific imaging. Features a Peltier-cooled CCD sensor to enhance signal-to-noise ratio, enabling low-noise image acquisition with high dynamic range and 12-bit digital output. Supports external trigger control and exposure timing for synchronization in automated imaging setups. Interfaces via digital outputs and provides compatibility with industrial and laboratory hardware platforms. Commonly applied in fluorescence microscopy, quantitative imaging, machine vision, and other scientific research fields requiring sensitive, high-resolution monochrome image capture. ## Accessories Digital camera link interface for image data transfer to frame grabber board, DB9 connector for RS-232C serial communication control, BNC connectors for external trigger input and exposure timing output, 12VDC power input via 4-pin Hirose connector.
