The cameras can be used to help document compliance with Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations (DSEAR), assure malfunctioning equipment and processes are identified correctly, enable rapid, accurate repairs to ensure plant operation is at maximum efficiency which in turn reduces the need to extraneous fuel and a corresponding reduction in carbon emissions.

Centurion XPG also plays a key part in the Quality Control and repeatability of production processes. Each production step can be documented by a short movie file or suitable still images to ensure compliance with the original design intent. Final product anomalies such as discolouring can be recorded quickly and easily as visual images with the camera to assist with continual quality improvement.

Centurion XPG is equipped with a 5 million pixel detector array with onboard interpolation options allowing an increase in image resolution to 10 million pixels. A 4x digital zoom allows the camera to be used for both intricate plant details and wide area shots. Onboard memory options range from 512Mb to 2Gb which can allow thousands of pictures to be stored onboard. Images and movies can be searched within the explosive area quickly via the keypad and are viewed on the bright 2.5” TFT screen.
