Thermal camera The radiation tolerant thermal camera, CCTV40-TH is the newest addition to the CCTV product line. It is a combined thermographic and visual camera. Inside the camera, the thermographic sensor measures temperature differences of critical equipment and other valuable assets. The visual sensor helps the operator with orientation in the room. The camera’s pan and tilt unit move the camera to pre-set positions and gathers temperature information on pre- selected equipment. As the cameras are usually mounted high up on the
walls, they are designed for easy service with a minimum of hand-tools, and without removing the camera from its location.
Customized Video Management System All camera, pan and tilt, and light functions, as well as recording and filing are controlled with the T-Complex video management software. All images are displayed and can be enlarged on the screen. It is a scalable platform that controls anything from one to several hundreds of cameras. For temperature detection our software receives the information from the CCTV40-TH camera and presents it to the operator with thermal images. Detected temperature differences of any equipment alerts the operator of undesired behavior. This gives the operator an early warning and the root cause can be taken care of before equipment becomes damaged. If the CCTV40TH thermal camera is equipped with a microphone, the sound information is processed by the sound detector software. Like the thermal information, it is presented and alerted similarly to the operator.
Mobile cameras In the case of quickly gaining supervision of a specific area, mobile cameras are used. They are important for increased safety and ALARA. Depending on need, radiation
levels, and available interfaces, different types of mobile cameras are used for easy connection to the system or for independent use. Typical surveillance tasks for the mobile cameras are temporary work area surveillance, possible leakage targeting and replacing personnel in dangerous work situations.
Turnkey solutions Ahlberg Cameras designs, delivers, installs, and maintains complete CCTV systems. Our engineers design both new installations and upgrades of old systems. These can be situated in nuclear power plants, spent fuel storage, waste management, and decommissioning sites. “We offer an extensive range of radiation tolerant equipment combined with customizable software, installation services, and maintenance. Our aim is to stand out as a market leader in CCTV equipment for nuclear power plants and waste management facilities, ensuring the safety of personnel and security of these critical facilities,” says Johan Bäckström, CEO at Ahlberg Cameras. In upgrade projects at nuclear sites, existing cabling must, in many cases, be reused as a benefit to our customers. In that case, the designer’s challenge is to incorporate new HD cameras and a modern monitoring system into an existing cabling infrastructure. ■
