Simplify Surveillance/CCTV Camera Maintenance
 

The Duraline / [MG]² Camera Lowering Connector System
allows for a camera and its housing to be detached from its position high atop a pole; and easily and safely lowered to ground level on a stainless steel aircraft cable with a portable winch. This provides for safe, simple, and quick camera installations, maintenance, and/or replacement. The weather-tight system consists of an arm, a winch, a cast aluminum disconnect unit and durable, rubber-molded male and female connectors for pole-mounted, multi-function surveillance cameras. The heart of the system is the patented water-proof connector assembly. Each connector is comprised of a “socket half” and a “pin half”. After all the mechanical parts of the disconnect unit have aligned, the connector halves will engage to make electrical and signal contact. The “socket half” is secured to the fixed portion of the disconnect unit and the “pin half” is attached to the movable portion of the disconnect unit. Spring assisted “socket half” maintains constant pressure on the “pin half”, ensuring complete insulation of the contacts.

The connectors are available in several configurations, including10-wire (with two coaxial connectors), 15-wire (with one coaxial connector) or 20-wire, to suit the requirements of the application. The system is designed to allow cameras to be lowered and maintained without the use of bucket-trucks and heavy equipment. The system is ideal for uses wherever cameras are used, roadways, banks, prisons, office complexes, residential areas, etc.

No other system on the market provides the convenience of camera lowering for maintenance.

Key Benefits:

• Weather-tight system keeps moisture and contaminants out.

• Allows maintenance of cameras without the use of heavy equipment (saves money). Further, depending upon the placement of the cameras, previously required lane closings, outriggers, crash trucks and cone crews for maintenance are eliminated. Maintenance cost and necessary personnel are considerably reduced.

• Connectors are molded of Hypalon (registered trademark DuPont Dow Elastomers) chlorosulfonated polyethylene type 4085 rubber, making them long lasting and able to withstand abusive environments.

• System withstands wind forces of 130 mph with a 30 percent gust factor using a 1.65 safety factor.

• Cameras can be installed at any height to provide a greater field of view because height is not limited to the reach of large bucket trucks.
