Ceres V 640 Series
Compact, industrial thermal camera
The Ceres V 640 series is based upon the Dione 640 OEM thermal imaging core with 640×480 pixels and 12 µm pixel pitch and NETD of less than 40 mK (available upon request) or 50 mK. The camera offers superior thermal imaging capabilities, thanks to the state-of-the-art microbolometer detector and on-board image processing.
The Ceres V 640 camera outputs full frame images at 60 Hz via either a CameraLink or GigE Vision interface – all GenICam compliant.
The compact size Ceres V 640 series offers excellent image quality and find applications in industrial machine vision, medical, scientific and security thermal imaging systems.
The camera offers either a no lens configuration or with different HFOV (Horizontal Field-Of-View) options.
Benefits & Features
• Compact and high-resolution
• Superior on-board image processing performance (optimized image quality)
• GenICam compliant

Lenses
Our cameras are compatible with a wide variety of lenses.
We do not manufacture our own lenses, but instead offer a variety of third-party lenses that can be purchased directly from us. We guarantee compatibility for any lenses purchased directly from Xenics.
Cables & Power Supplies
Xenics develops flexible and modular cameras resulting in a wide variety of camera interfaces. All these interfaces require unique cabling which we keep in stock. Next to interface cables we also offer separate power supplies.
Cases
Xenics ships its infrared cameras all over the world in high-grade custom cases. As our infrared cameras have different sizes, we have several case-types in stock guaranteeing a tight fit. The cases are made of polypropylene which make them very sturdy. They are dustproof, watertight, stackable and can cope with temperatures between -40 °C and 80 °C. In addition they are equipped with an automatic air pressure compensation valve allowing us to ship the cameras all over the globe.
Most of our infrared cameras come with a standard hardshell case upon purchasing.
