GigE Vision Camera GMAX0505

The Mercury 2 Pro GigE Vision Camera lineup represents a series of industrial cameras equipped with a GigE Vision interface. These industrial cameras incorporate high-resolution, low-noise global shutter sensors housed in a compact design. GigE remains the prevalent interface choice for cameras in conventional machine vision setups. The ME2P series offers enhanced functionalities. Should you require advanced options, please reach out to us to verify if the specific capability is available or can be implemented for your needs. Additionally, it supports "remove parameter limit" allowing extended ranges for exposure, gain, white balance, and more. Exposure durations can extend up to 10 seconds.
This GigE Vision Camera series is suitable for applications meeting the following criteria:
- Compact, high-resolution global shutter camera
- Cable runs up to 100 meters
- Cost-effective and straightforward cable installation
- Single cable connectivity for the industrial camera
- Advanced image processing capabilities

For further information, please consult the ME2P GigE Vision camera manual.

MTBF, warranty & product life cycle

Daheng Imaging manufactures over 100,000 industrial cameras annually, adhering to rigorous quality standards. The mean time between failures (MTBF) exceeds 400,000 hours (equivalent to 45 years of continuous operation). These industrial cameras carry TÜV Rheinland certification and include a 3-year warranty. Each camera model remains available for a minimum of 7 years following market release, with many models supported for significantly longer periods.

Monochrome Industrial Camera

A monochrome camera, also referred to as a black and white camera, provides benefits across numerous applications. While color cameras dominate the security and telecommunications sectors, industrial environments leverage the strengths of monochrome cameras. These cameras exhibit high sensitivity to light, deliver crisp images, and generate less data compared to color cameras, making them optimal for image processing. By selecting appropriate lighting colors and lens filters, a monochrome camera can fully exploit its characteristics, enabling the capture of images with strong contrast and high resolution.

Advanced vision camera features

The ME2P GigE Vision camera series integrates both basic and sophisticated features, including:
- Programmable ROI for increased frame rates via partial scanning
- Adjustable gain, exposure, and white balance settings (white balance applicable only to color models)
- Support for auto gain, auto exposure, and auto white balance (auto white balance exclusive to color models)
- Four acquisition modes: Single frame, Continuous, Software trigger, and External trigger
- Compliance with GenICam and GigE Vision standards, compatible with numerous third-party software packages such as HALCON and LabVIEW
- Multiple sample applications and an easy-to-use SDK supporting various programming environments
- Certifications: CE, RoHS, GenICam, GigE Vision

These comprehensive features make the ME2P GigE Vision camera series an excellent option for demanding image processing tasks.
