4.2 Mounting the Camera

The PANTERA 22Mcameras can be mounted via the 4 holes.

4.3 Thermal Management

For any CCD camera optimal performance is achieved by transferring heat away from the

sensor. Keeping a sen sor ―cool‖ red uces the amount of dark current generated. Dark

current is the leading contributor to FPN, PRNU, dark offset, random noise and other

performance specifications, especially when a camera is significantly gained (i.e. +10db).

PANTERA 22M mechanicals have been optimized to transfer heat from the sensor to the

front of the housing. Recommend to mount camera on a metal plate. Mount fans away

from the camera to avoid vibration, and direct the airflow across the housing to decrease

the temperature delta between ambient and housing temperatures. Proper installation

greatly reduces dark current and will improve you systems performance.

4.4 Environment

The camera and cables should be shielded from environmental noise sources for best

operation. The camera should also be kept as cool as possible. The specified operating

temperature is -10–50°C measured at the front surface of the camera.
