High durability
AXIS Q60-S cameras, with marine-grade (SAE 316L or V4A) stainless steel and a nylon clear dome cover, have high re-
sistance to the corrosive effect of sea water and cleaning chemicals. They can withstand high-pressure steam cleaning.
Pressurized nitrogen, meanwhile, provides benefits such as preventing external contaminants from entering, preventing
internal condensation and internal corrosion, and creating a nonflammable environment. The cameras can operate in
-30 °C to 50 °C (-22 °F to 122 °F). They have MIL-STD-810G 509.5, IP6K9K, IP66, IP67 and NEMA 4X approvals, ensuring
protection against salt fog, high pressure and steam jet cleaning, dust, rain, snow and ice. Support for shock detection
enables the cameras to trigger an alarm if they have been hit.
AXIS Q60-S cameras are to be filled with nitrogen gas through the inlet valve [1] and the pressure should be above 0.2 bar (3 psi) for full protection from internal
condensation. The pressure relief valve [2] will open when the pressure inside the camera reaches 0.5 bar (7 psi).
System schematic
An AXIS Q60-S connects to the supplied AXIS T8605 Media Converter
Switch using an IP66-rated multi-connector cable [1], which attaches
to the camera with a simple click. Through the media converter switch,
the multi-connector cable enables the camera to receive power (power
supply [2] not included), and send and receive data to and from external
alarm devices and the network. Two SFP slots and two RJ45 connectors
in the media converter switch give installers the flexibility to network the
cameras cost-effectively over long distances in a daisy chain or in a ring
topology for increased reliability in the event of a single point of failure.
(IGMP filtering is not supported and ring topology requires a switch sup-
porting IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol). The RJ45 connectors can
also be used for connection to complementary cameras such as a thermal
camera or temporarily to a laptop to service the system locally.
