If you decide your CCTV system is in need of an upgrade most forward thinking people will decide to use HD CCTV cameras. The reason is fairly simple, better live images and better recorded images. The improvements over analogue cameras are dramatic. Facial recognition becomes possible where before it was almost impossible. Registration plates can be recorded where before this was very much hit and miss and a as a management tool HD CCTV is second to none, in addition as a security deterrent HD CCTV wins every time. Well almost every time !!! The big exception is at night. The reason is simple, they are light hungry.
Dual chip HD cameras require IR illuminators to ensure image quality does not drop as the light fades. Either Clarius white lights or the Clarius IR illuminator range will ensure your system functions at it’s peak as the dark nights approach.
The Clarius range is built to a high specification. One benefit is a self cleaning lens which means the IR illuminator can be installed in even the most hostile environment. The main places where IR lluminators will be found is airports, quarries and heavy industry the self cleaning lens is so important here and this USP will help to keep images crystal clear.
This one feature alone leads to low maintenance costs. The Clarius IR illuminator has and a ten year life span and a built in photocell to keep running costs down and as a result this means return on investment can be achieved in months rather than years.
The Clarius IR illuminator has a consistent light spread and as the light is invisible there is no light pollution associated with halogens, it also means of course that a more covert security operation can be achieved.
So in summary HD CCTV and Clarius IR illuminators go hand in hand, if you have one you need the other.
