Color inspection at the 2K line length
Color capture across a 2048 × 2 CMOS line defines the role of MV-CL022-91GC. Its 14 × 14 µm pixels run at 40 kHz in both standard and high-bandwidth modes, while Gigabit Ethernet also permits operation over Fast Ethernet. This combination suits installations that need chromatic separation and a moderate line rate without moving to a longer 4096-pixel sensor.
The two-row color arrangement is applicable to continuous inspection of printed webs, colored parts, or material edges as the product passes the imaging station. Four configurable input/output lines can accept timing signals or coordinate external equipment, with single-ended and differential signaling available. PoE can carry power with the network connection, while a 12 V DC to 24 V DC input remains available for separately powered layouts.
Within the CL Series, MV-CL022-91GM changes the same 14 µm pixel class to mono and reaches 100 kHz in high-bandwidth mode. MV-CL024-91GC retains color at 2048 pixels, uses 7 µm pixels and reaches 70 kHz, making it the faster color choice. MV-CL042-91GC extends the line to 4096 pixels and reaches 80 kHz when more samples across the inspected width matter than the larger pixel pitch here.

Selection and applications
2K color web inspection. Color edge and print checking. PoE line-scan stations.
Minimum kit: Use the MV-CL022-91GC camera, an M42*1.0 line-scan lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and either a PoE connection or a 12 V DC to 24 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CL022-91GM — Prefer it for mono capture at up to 100 kHz; MV-CL024-91GC — Prefer it for 2048-pixel color capture at up to 70 kHz; MV-CL042-91GC — Prefer it when a 4096-pixel Gigabit Ethernet line is required.

FAQ
How should an M42 lens be selected for the MV-CL022-91GC color line?
The camera has an M42*1.0 mount, a 12 mm back focal length and 14 × 14 µm pixels across a 2048 × 2 color array. Select an M42 line-scan lens that covers that sensor line and resolves the required object sampling across the inspected width.
Can MV-CL022-91GC use one network cable for both data and power?
Yes. The Gigabit Ethernet interface supports PoE, so a PoE-capable network connection can carry data and power. The camera can instead be supplied from 12 V DC to 24 V DC. Its stated power consumption is 7.4 W, which should be included in the power allocation.
What line rate does MV-CL022-91GC deliver in its two bandwidth modes?
The maximum is 40 kHz in standard mode and 40 kHz in high-bandwidth mode. Because the listed ceiling is the same in both cases, mode selection should follow the receiving network arrangement rather than an expectation of a higher line rate.
Which environmental limits apply to an MV-CL022-91GC installation?
Operation is specified from -20 °C to 55 °C and 5% RH to 90% RH, with storage from -30 °C to 80 °C. The housing is IP40, so the installation must control dust and liquid exposure rather than treating the camera as a sealed unit.
When is MV-CL022-91GC preferable to the mono MV-CL022-91GM?
Choose MV-CL022-91GC when color information is required from the 2048-pixel line. MV-CL022-91GM is mono, has a 2048 × 1 array and reaches 100 kHz in high-bandwidth mode, whereas the color model uses 2048 × 2 and tops out at 40 kHz.
