Extended-body SWIR variant
A 58 × 94 × 82 mm housing distinguishes MV-CI013-GS-TH among the 1.3 MP GigE SWIR variants. Inside, the Sony® IMX990 InGaAs sensor records 1280 × 1024 Mono 8 images with 5 × 5 µm pixels from 0.4 µm to 1.7 µm at up to 91 fps. Data travels over Gigabit Ethernet at 1000 Mbit/s, with Fast Ethernet at 100 Mbit/s also supported, and the optical interface is C-mount.
Moving-item spectral inspection can use UltraShort exposures from 3 µs to 7 µs, provided the illumination supplies adequate signal. Standard exposure spans 8 µs to 0.1 sec, gain covers 0 dB to 18 dB, and dynamic range is 56 dB. A 12-pin P10 connector carries one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output, one bidirectional non-isolated I/O, and one RS-232 interface for trigger and control integration.
At approximately 750 g, TH is larger and heavier than MV-CI013-GS-TF at 58 × 58 × 82 mm and approximately 470 g; both have a typical 11.7 W rating at 12 VDC with TEC enabled. TH extends the stated storage ceiling to 80 °C, versus 70 °C for TF. MV-CI013-GS-NN is the uncooled, PoE alternative at 29 × 29 × 42 mm. Select TH when its package dimensions and wider storage range match the mechanical and environmental design.

Selection and applications
High-speed SWIR contrast inspection. Short-exposure spectral imaging. P10-triggered acquisition with RS-232.
Minimum kit: Install MV-CI013-GS-TH with a C-mount lens for its 1/2-inch sensor and chosen 0.4 µm to 1.7 µm band, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, a 12-pin P10 cable, and a 9 VDC to 24 VDC source sized for the 11.7 W at 12 VDC rating.
Nearby in the range: MV-CI013-GS-TF — Prefer it for the smaller 58 × 58 × 82 mm TEC-cooled package at approximately 470 g; MV-CI013-GS-NN — Prefer it when an uncooled PoE camera in a 29 × 29 × 42 mm body is required; MV-CI050-Y1S-NN — Prefer it for 5.3 MP global-shutter acquisition at 120 fps over CoaXPress.

FAQ
What image and spectral characteristics define MV-CI013-GS-TH?
The camera uses a Sony® IMX990 InGaAs sensor at 1280 × 1024 Mono 8 resolution. Its 1/2-inch array has 5 × 5 µm pixels and covers 0.4 µm to 1.7 µm. Full-resolution acquisition reaches 91 fps, with 56 dB dynamic range.
How does the TH housing compare with the TF enclosure?
TH measures 58 × 94 × 82 mm and weighs approximately 750 g. TF measures 58 × 58 × 82 mm and approximately 470 g. Their imaging resolution, 91 fps maximum, Gigabit Ethernet interface, 12-pin P10 I/O set, and 11.7 W at 12 VDC TEC-enabled rating align.
What optical coverage is needed from a C-mount SWIR lens?
The C-mount lens should cover the 1/2-inch sensor, resolve its 5 × 5 µm pixels, and transmit the portion of the 0.4 µm to 1.7 µm band used by the inspection. Verify its image circle and spectral transmission across the 1280 × 1024 image.
Which power, communication, and I/O connections does TH use?
Supply voltage is 9 VDC to 24 VDC, with typical consumption of 11.7 W at 12 VDC when TEC is enabled. Gigabit Ethernet carries images. The 12-pin P10 connection provides an isolated input, isolated output, bidirectional non-isolated line, and RS-232.
What exposure settings support high-speed spectral capture?
UltraShort mode is specified from 3 µs to 7 µs and Standard mode from 8 µs to 0.1 sec. The camera runs at up to 91 fps at 1280 × 1024 Mono 8. Gain from 0 dB to 18 dB provides another stated adjustment for the available signal.
What storage and operating limits distinguish the TH variant?
MV-CI013-GS-TH operates from –30 °C to 50 °C and stores from –30 °C to 80 °C. Its IP40 rating requires proper lens installation and wiring, and allowable humidity is 20% RH to 95% RH without condensation. TF has a lower 70 °C storage ceiling.
