Mechanical and Optical Considerations

4.1Camera Dimensions and Mounting

The 2K and 4K TDI camera housings are manufactured with high precision. Sensor alignment is to the four M4 face mounting holes.

The 2K and 4K TDI camera housings are equipped with four M4 mounting holes on the front and two M4 mounting holes on one side and on the bottom of the camera.

Use caution in the following ways to avoid stripping threads or stressing the case:

•Use only M4 screws.

•Do not over torque; do not over tighten screws beyond the depth of the holes; do not otherwise force screws or create a bending moment with them.

•Use caution in crafting mounting brackets so that you do not interfere with the lens or exert force on the lens extender tube barrel, or torque or otherwise place force on any of the connectors on the back of the case. A "L" mounting bracket (section 4.3) is available; contact your Fairchild Imaging representative for more details.
