The Armadex Ex-M OZC 3 Explosion Proof Camera is a rugged digital camera specifically engineered for use in hazardous industrial environments where explosive gases may be present. Certified for ATEX Zone 2 (Gas), this intrinsically safe camera meets strict European safety standards for operation in explosive atmospheres such as oil and gas facilities, FPSOs, LNG tankers, chemical plants, and refineries.
Built with durability and reliability in mind, the camera features an IP68-rated enclosure providing complete protection against dust and water immersion. It can withstand drops from up to 2 meters, crushing forces up to 100 kgf, and freezing temperatures down to -10°C, making it ideal for demanding industrial field operations.
The camera is equipped with a high quality 12MP BSI CMOS sensor and a wide angle optical zoom lens that ensures clear and detailed images even in challenging environments. The device also includes advanced imaging features such as macro photography, time lapse recording, GPS location tagging, and multiple hazardous area shooting modes.
Despite its rugged construction, the Armadex Ex-M OZC 3 remains lightweight and portable, weighing approximately 249 grams. It supports SD memory cards and can capture up to 340 images on a single battery charge, making it an excellent tool for inspection documentation and industrial monitoring tasks.
