Model/Part Number: DWE-ELWIRUSBR0

Standard Cable Length: 1 meter

This camera is a cutting-edge Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) Camera engineered for rugged ocean surface operations. Built to withstand the harshest marine conditions, it boasts exceptional durability and resilience, capable of surviving complete submersion in water and withstanding the immense pressures of ocean depths. Whether mounted on oceanic vehicles or used in demanding surface applications, this camera is the ideal companion for maritime missions.

Key Features:

• Rugged Design: Constructed with corrosion-resistant materials and a pressure-rated housing to endure rough handling and extreme environments.
• Submersion Survivability: Designed to survive prolonged exposure to high-pressure submersion and resume operation seamlessly upon resurfacing.
• Reliable Thermal Imaging (Above Water): Provides high-precision thermal data in surface environments for applications such as navigation, surveillance, and equipment monitoring.
• Compact and Lightweight: Engineered for integration with ocean vehicles and equipment without adding unnecessary bulk.

⚠️ Important Note: The camera does not produce thermal imaging or vision data while submerged. Its primary use is for surface-level thermal imaging, with enhanced survivability in underwater scenarios.

Equip your oceanic missions with the resilience and reliability of our LWIR Camera, designed to endure the extremes of the marine world while delivering exceptional thermal performance above water.
