• Check that the surface that the attachment
pipe and locally procured bracket are to be
attached to can bear the weight of the
bracket and camera.
Mounting method for this product
This product is designed to be used as a pen-
dant mount camera. If the product is mounted
on a desktop or at a slant, it may not work cor-
rectly and its lifetime may be shortened.
Do not place this product in the following
places:
• Locations where a chemical agent is used
such as a swimming pool
• Locations subject to moisture or oil smoke
such as a kitchen
• Locations that have a specific environment
that is subject to an inflammable atmo-
sphere or solvents
• Locations where a radiation, an X-ray, a
strong radio wave or a strong magnetic
field is generated
• Locations subject to corrosive gases such
as from hot springs, volcanic regions, etc.
• Locations where the temperature is not
within the specified range (
☞
page 30)
• Locations subject to vibrations, such as on
vehicles, marine vessels, or above product
lines (This product is not designed for on-
vehicle use.)
• Locations subject to condensation as the
result of severe changes in temperature (In
case of installing the product in such loca-
tions, the dome cover may become foggy
or condensation may be caused on the
cover.)
Sulfurization caused by rubber products
Do not place the product near rubber products
(packing, rubber feet, etc.) that contain sulfur.
There is a risk that sulfur components in rubber
products may cause electrical parts and termi-
nals, etc. to become sulfurized and corrode.
Screw tightening
• The screws and bolts must be tightened
with an appropriate tightening torque
according to the material and strength of
the installation area.
• Do not use an impact driver. Use of an
impact driver may damage the screws or
cause tightening excessively.
• When a screw is tightened, make the
screw at a right angle to the surface. After
tightening the screws or bolts, perform
checks to ensure that the tightening is
sufficient enough so that there is no
movement or looseness.
Heater unit
This product is equipped with an internal heater
unit for use in cold climates. The product can be
used in temperatures as low as –30 °C {–22 °F}
when connected to a PoE+ hub,
X6531
X6511
–50 °C {–58 °F} when connected to a 24 V AC
power supply or a tested PoE injector, and
S6530
–40 °C {–40 °F} when connected to a 24 V AC
power supply.
The heater unit turns on automatically when
the temperature inside the product drops
below +10 °C {50 °F}. As the camera warms
up, snow or frost accumulated on the dome
cover will melt. However, it may not be defrost-
ed from the cover depending on the ambient
temperature or weather condition. Also, the
camera may not function properly, if it is
installed and operated in an environment where
the temperature is below –30 °C {–22 °F}. In
such a case, wait approximately 2 hours or
more until the camera is warmed up. Then,
turn on the power again.
Influence on images and their quality
Under the following conditions, image quality
may deteriorate or images may not be viewed
properly.
(1) Influence by rainfall
During rainfall, there may be raindrops on
the dome cover due to wind, which makes
surveillance images difficult to be viewed.
