Video security technology has drastically improved over the
last twenty years and we have security camera system features now that weren’t
even in their infancy just 10 years ago. If you haven’t shopped for a video
security system before, the laundry list of standard features can be a bit
daunting at first glance and you may feel in over your head. Don’t panic.
Whether you’re looking for a small, entry level system to secure your home or
your security needs are a little more complex, Weatherproof Camera Housings is
one of the most important aspects of CCTV
Weatherproof Camera
Housings
As security camera technology becomes more advanced, the
internal components also become more sensitive to dirt, water, and fluctuations
in temperature. If you need to monitor the outside of your location, you will
need weatherproof cameras or camera enclosures. CCTV camera housings protect
against various intensities of dust and moisture that range from zero to
complete protection. That level of protection is designated by its weatherproof
rating.
The standard format for a camera’s weatherproof rating is
IPxx with the first ‘x’ notating the level of protection against solid objects
ranging from 0 (none) to 6 (complete protection) and the second ‘x’ for
moisture protection which ranges from 0 (none) to 8 (complete submersion). When
you’re looking for weatherproof cameras, be sure to find out their IP rating so
they have the correct level of protection.
