System Precautions

Precautions

Read these precautions and this manual carefully before using the camera.

Confirm that the camera’s packaging is undamaged before opening it. If the packaging is

damaged, please contact the relevant logistics personnel.

Do not open the housing of the camera. The warranty is voided if the housing is opened.

Keep the camera housing temperature in a range of 0 °C to +60 °C during operation.

Do not operate the camera near strong electromagnetic fields. In addition, avoid

electrostatic charging, violent vibration, and excess moisture.

To clean the device, avoid electrostatic charging by using a dry, clean absorbent cotton

cloth dampened with a small quantity of pure alcohol. Do not use methylated alcohol. To

clean the surface of the camera housing, use a soft, dry cloth. To remove severe stains, use

a soft cloth dampened with a small quantity of neutral detergent and then wipe dry. Do not

use volatile solvents such as benzene and thinners, as they can damage the surface finish.

Further cleaning instructions are below.

Though this camera supports hot plugging, it is recommended that you power down and

disconnect power to the camera before you add or replace system components.

Electrostatic discharge and the CMOS sensor

Image sensors and the camera bodies housing are susceptible to damage from electrostatic

discharge (ESD). Electrostatic charge introduced to the sensor window surface can induce

charge buildup on the underside of the window that cannot be readily dissipated by the dry

nitrogen gas in the sensor package cavity. The charge normally dissipates within 24 hours

and the sensor returns to normal operation.

The Piranha4 Color Camera

Camera Highlights

Based on Teledyne e2V’s unique CMOS color line scan sensor architecture, the Piranha4™

8k trilinear color cameras provide outstanding signal-to-noise performance for high speed

imaging.

The Piranha4 8k model has 8k resolution with a 7.5 µm x 7.5 µm pixel size for optimized

optical design. The cameras deliver a maximum line rate of 33 kHz.

Precise sensor alignment simplifies multiple camera calibration at the system level.

GenICam™ or ASCII command-compliant interfaces make the camera easier to setup,

control, and integrate. Programmable features include exposure control, flat field correction,

and gain settings. The Piranha4 camera is ideal for the inspection of printing, printed circuit

board, solar cell, film, and large format webs.

Supported Industry Standards

GenICam™

The camera is GenICam compliant and implements a superset of the GenICam Standard

Features Naming Convention specification V1.5.

This description takes the form of an XML device description file using the syntax defined by

the GenApi module of the GenICam specification. The camera uses the GenICam Generic

Control Protocol (GenCP V1.0) to communicate over the Camera Link HS command lane.

For more information see www.genicam.org.

Sensor Responsivity and QE

Spectral Responsivity

The responsivity graph illustrates the sensor’s response to different wavelengths of light

(excluding lens and light source characteristics).

Note: The responsivity of a color camera will measure approximately 1/6th that of a similar

monochrome camera model as a result of the effect the color filter has on the sensor and

also due to the color camera not incorporating TDI Mode.
