What are the power requirements for QSI cameras?
Last Updated: 03/21/2010
|
All QSI cameras include an integrated switching power supply which allows them to run directly from a 12VDC power source. Every QSI 500 Series camera includes an approved AC adapter with an input voltage range of 90-240V, 50-60HZ that will plug into any standard wall socket. The camera can be also powered by any reasonably well regulated, clean 12VDC power source. Maximum power consumption is 1.5 Amps (18 Watts) at max cooling, max fans and the filter wheel moving.
QSI 500 Series cameras use a standard 2.1mm DC power connector. If you wish to build your own power cable, you can use DigiKey Part# SC1052-ND.
Plug specification:
- Outside Diameter: 5.5mm
- Inside Diameter: 2.1mm
- Center Positive
- Length: 10mm
Minimum recommended wire gauge for DC cable:
- 6 foot - 18 gauge wire
- 10 foot - 16 gauge wire
Note: The camera is designed to operate on stable, regulated 12V DC
power and consumes less than 2 amps at full power. DC power input above
or below 12V will decrease the maximum cooling capability of the camera
by increasing power dissipation or lowering cooling efficiency. If the
input voltage is below 11V or above 14V the camera will report an error
until the voltage is returned to the specified range. See Status and
Notification below.
Caution: Applying an input voltage over 16V or under 10V may permanently damage the camera and will void the camera warranty.
