Norbain SD, Europe's largest distributor of CCTV and access control equipment will stock explosion protection CCTV products, starting with the EX70 Explosion Protected surveillance camera from Extreme CCTV Surveillance Systems.
Said Paul Wong, Norbain's Technical and Product Development Manager:
"Explosion protection products are specifically designed to provide CCTV coverage in hazardous environments where traditional CCTV cameras are seen as a possible risk of causing explosion. This could occur from the smallest of electrical sparks, or even heat. These products are becoming more cost effective and, in some sectors, are becoming a standard requirement for environments that previously have installed standard CCTV solutions."

Typical environments include the petro-chemical industry, oil and gas platforms, power and nuclear facilities, fuel storage facilities at airports and munitions storage.
The EX70 is a compact pan/tilt adjustable CCD camera in a standard instrumentation housing and is certified as complying with explosion standards. It is available in five models with a range of lenses from 2.5mm to 16.0mm.
