BC-10 UV camera uses 240-280nm out-of-band rejection UV imaging technology, which can filter out the interference of the sunlight. Its SDK provides developing options for corona inspection systems such as onsite (OS), drone (DR), or robot (ROB) systems.


BC-10 can "see" the corona discharge, invisible to human eyes since it is weak radiation emitted by electric facilities. BC-10 provides output, including video stream and photon counting for quantitative analysis. The photon number indicates the corona intensity. BC-10 camera comprises a high-performance detector, UV enhanced components, UV optical components, and signal processing units, which can also be customised for different applications according to your existing system configurations.


BC-10 camera has advantages of high detection sensitivity, excellent anti-interference ability, low power consumption, robust scalability, etc. This daytime UV module can apply to high voltage electrical equipment such as substations, transmission and distribution lines, railway lines, generators, transformers, mines, petroleum, heavy industry, fire prevention and inspection services.

FEATURES

High Sensitivity Detector

A high-performance ultraviolet detector is used, which is very suitable for detecting the weak ultraviolet rays generated by the corona.

Out-of-band Rejection Filter

A high-performance filter has the characteristic of deep cut-off 240 to 280nm waveband and high transparency. To ensure the operation can run under sunlight.

UV Photon Counting

Photons counting to evaluate the intensity of corona discharge is available. Data are flexible to use for various developments.

Adjustable UV Gain

Gain adjustable. If used for integrated development, it can adjust to read the current UV gain voltage through the serial port.

Small, Light & Stable

Compact. Dedicated aerial plug cable and power adapter. It can work for a long time in harsh environments with stable performance.

Customer Customisation

As a mono UV detection component, it is highly expandable provided with SDK for different customised applications.
