Protection measures using conventional light can be quite a nuisance in densely populated areas, in remote outdoor areas or in production facilities. Annoying glare is eliminated by using virtually invisible infrared light (860 nm) that consumes max. 19 W for top-rate energy efficiency.
In most cases, extremely light-sensitive MOBOTIX cameras can be used even without artificial additional lighting. The long-lasting, weatherproof MxIRLight infrared illuminators have proven to be worthwhile in very dark or completely dark applications with lighting lower than 3 lux (in comparison, street lights provide 10 lux), especially for applications requiring intelligent analysis functions.
MxIRLight II
Discreet Security Over Long Range
The light produced by the MxIRLight illuminator has a maximum range of 120 m and generates an infrared wavelength of 860 nm that is perfectly perceptible by a MOBOTIX camera with a black/white image sensor, yet only perceptible to the human eye as a red glimmer, in contrast to conventional white lights. With energy-saving LED technology (max. 19 W, PoE+ standard).
MxIRLight III
Automatic On/Off Function
Thanks to the photosensor on the back of the device, the MxIRLight automatically switches on and off (once connected) when the sensor detects light conditions below the threshold of 3 lux - or above this threshold for periods exceeding 150 seconds. This has the advantage that the device does not manually switch off if the light increases briefly due to flashlights, headlights, lightning etc.
