Introduction
This document describes how to mount a lens tube on an IDS camera. It covers the following lens tubes:
CK.0010.1.12100.00 lens tube 51 mm, Ø 41 mm
CK.0010.1.12000.00 lens tube 64 mm, Ø 41 mm
CK.0010.1.12200.00 lens tube 77 mm, Ø 41 mm
IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH assume no liability for defects if the lens tube was improperly
mounted or dismounted by the customer or a third party.
Prerequisites
Before mounting the tube, store the camera, lens, and lens tube in a cool, dry place for a while. This will prevent
condensation on the inside of the lens tube after mounting.
Mounting the lens tube
Note on the tube thread and the camera thread
Check the thread in the tube and the thread at the front part of the camera for damage before mounting.
Use only undamaged parts.
A damaged thread leads to leakage of the camera.
Note on the O-ring seal at the tube thread
Check the O-ring seal for damage before mounting a protective lens tube. If you will be using the camera
without a lens tube for a prolonged time, remove the O-ring seal and store it away from light, as UV light
and ozone can cause the O-ring seal to become porous.
NOTICE!
If you need to grease the O-ring seal, use only a thin lubricant film of silicone grease.
Proceed as follows
Mount your lens.
Mount the lens tube on the camera. The lens tube is tight if it is screwed flush on the camera front.
