VIDEO SURVEILLANCE > IR illuminators


When video surveillance is needed for low-light areas, it is a good idea to use black and white cameras, which are more sensitive than color cameras. A better solution (just a bit more expensive) is to use cameras with SONY Ex-View CCD for filming in low-light environments.
However, if you need to film in complete dark environments, you will need to use infrared illuminators, which enable the camera to film in total darkness. The site where installed the infrared light stays in total darkness to the human eye, but fully lit to a camera.
All VSE infrared illuminators use LED technology, which compared to the obsolete halogen lamps with infrared filters, have the advantages of low consumption and long duration. All VSE illuminators have 850 nm wavelength and switch ON automatically when darkness falls; so they do not require any cabling other than the power supply.
The aluminum waterproof cases are also suitable for outdoor use, without protection.
NOTE: Infrared illuminators can only be used with black and white cameras or color cameras with a day/night feature. Infrared illuminators can also be used with IR cameras as additional infrared sources.

VRE-SIR40CE - 40m LED Illuminator

With 48 LEDs, this illuminator allows you to film in total darkness (0 Lux), covering an area of around 40 metres in front of the camera.
The VRE-SIR40CE connects directly to a 12VDC power supply (VRE-SAL4SE adaptor to be ordered separately).
The white aluminum housing is waterproof (IP66), suitable for outdoor use, and includes the bracket for wall-mounting with cable management.

VRE-SIR90CE - 90m LED Illuminator

With 12pcs. 10 mm diameter LED, this illuminator allows you to film in total darkness (0 Lux), covering an area of around 90 metres in front of the camera.
The VRE-SIR90CE connects directly to a 12VDC power supply (VRE-SAL4SE adaptor to be ordered separately).
The white aluminum housing is waterproof (IP67), suitable for outdoor use, and includes the bracket for wall-mounting with cable management.

VRE-SIR180E - 180m LED Illuminator

Long range latest generation infrared illuminator. With 15 pcs. new generation High Power LEDs, this illuminator allows you to film in total darkness (0 Lux), covering an area of around 180 metres in front of the camera.
The illuminator takes both 12VDC or 24Vac power supply. Due to the LEDs power consumption it is advisable to use 2A power adaptor such as VRE-SAL5E (not included).
The die cast aluminum housing has been specially designed for effective heat dissipation, and it is totally waterproof, making it suitable for outdoor use (IP67).
It comes with a bracket for wall-mounting or ceiling installation.

 Tips for installing IR illuminators
  • The illuminator should be tested in total darkness, as it will only turn ON in absence of light. Therefore it should avoid sources of light such as street lights or reflected lights, which will prevent it from switch ON.
  • Position the illuminator no higher than 3-4 meters from the ground, not far from the area you wish to illuminate, otherwise the lighting will not be powerful enough.
  • The illuminator should be installed above or beside the camera, or on the camera itself. It should point the same direction as the camera. The illuminator may also be positioned in another point, but not directly in front of the camera.
  • The lighting power provided can vary due to a number of factors, including the refraction created by the surrounding environment, the sensitivity of the camera and (above all) the focus and the aperture of the lens. It is a good idea to remember that the rated illumination range is tested with long-focal length lenses, while wide-angle lenses will reduce the lighting performance dramatically.
