Imperx Cheetah CLF-C2820 UV Camera

Highlights

The Imperx Cheetah CLF-C2820 is a ruggedized 8.1 MP ultraviolet CMOS area scan camera for industrial, scientific, and inspection applications. Its Sony Pregius S IMX487 global-shutter sensor provides a native resolution of 2856 × 2848 pixels, sensitivity from 200 nm to 400 nm, and full-resolution acquisition at up to 59 frames per second.

Camera Link Base, Medium, and Full operating modes with Power over Camera Link support flexible, high-bandwidth system integration. The CLF-C2820 combines a 2/3-inch optical format, 2.74 µm pixels, monochrome UV imaging, configurable sensor-window options, programmable exposure and triggering, and onboard image-correction functions.
