The main function of the FLIR A500f/FLIR A700f series camera is, through adding the
housing, to increase the environmental specification of the standard FLIR A400/A500/
A700 series camera to IP 66 without affecting any of the features available in the camera
itself.
When delivered, these cameras are already mounted into a environmental housing de-
vice from VIDEOTEC. The device is based on model HOV Hi-PoE IPM with special FLIR
front with support for visual and thermal camera.
There is no active cooling, such as a cooling fan. However, the camera is mounted on
FLIR custom made cooling plates and there are also extra cooling plates connecting the
camera to the housing.
There is a heater which will control the powering of the camera. When it is started in cold
environments, it will wait until the internal heater has increased the temperature inside of
the camera, before the camera is powered up.
For more information on the environmental housing device, refer to the Instruction man-
ual from the supplier of the device:
