Selection context and uses

A 4096 × 3000 monochrome field makes this the global-shutter 12 MP GigE choice. At its centre, MV-CT0MG0120/G records 4096 × 3000 px monochrome frames at up to 9.9 fps. The Stacked BSI CMOS device has 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels on a 1.1-inch format and uses a global shutter. Transport is Gigabit Ethernet through the RJ45 connector.

The global shutter and 9.9 fps ceiling support large-field print review, assembly completeness and grayscale feature inspection, with the full field exposed on the same timing basis. Exposure extends through 10 µs to 19 µs in UltraShort mode and 20 µs to 10 s in Standard mode. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled modes allow exposure to follow external timing. The 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") body accepts C-mount optics. IP40 protection applies with proper lens installation and wiring, and the working range is –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F).

The neighbouring configurations differ in output type, interface, frame dimensions and acquisition rate. MV-CT0CG0120/G keeps 4096 × 3000 px and 9.9 fps but changes the output to Color. MV-CT0CU0120/G uses USB 3.0 for 4096 × 3000 px colour capture at 31 fps. MV-CT0MG0089/G provides 4096 × 2160 px at 13.9 fps with a global-shutter monochrome path over Gigabit Ethernet. Retain MV-CT0MG0120/G when Mono output, Gigabit Ethernet and PoE are needed together at 9.9 fps.

Selection and applications

Grayscale feature capture at 4096 × 3000 px. Triggered monochrome inspection with a global shutter. Full-frame acquisition up to 9.9 fps.

Minimum kit: Use MV-CT0MG0120/G with a C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connector, and either PoE or 9 V DC to 24 V DC power through the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection.

Nearby in the range: MV-CT0CG0120/G — Prefer it for Color output at the same 4096 × 3000 px and 9.9 fps; MV-CT0CU0120/G — Prefer it for Color output over USB 3.0 at 4096 × 3000 px and 31 fps; MV-CT0MG0089/G — Prefer it for 4096 × 2160 px, 13.9 fps and global-shutter monochrome capture.

FAQ

Which suggested lenses cover the sensor in MV-CT0MG0120/G?

For MV-CT0MG0120/G, the C-mount matches are MVL-KF3524M-25MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Their image circles cover the 1.1-inch sensor, and the 25 MP lens class is above the camera’s 4096 × 3000 px matrix. Both therefore match the stated mount, sensor coverage and resolution requirement.

How should power and cabling be arranged for MV-CT0MG0120/G?

The camera accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC and also supports PoE. The RJ45 connector carries Gigabit Ethernet; the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection provides DC power and I/O when separate power is used. Consumption is typically 1.7 W at 12 V DC.

What data interface and peak acquisition rate does MV-CT0MG0120/G provide?

Data uses Gigabit Ethernet at 1 Gbit/s through RJ45 and remains compatible with Fast Ethernet. The stated full-frame ceiling is 9.9 fps at 4096 × 3000 Mono 8. MVS and software meeting the GigE Vision protocol are supported.

How do shutter timing and exposure affect motion work with MV-CT0MG0120/G?

The CMOS sensor uses a global shutter, so all pixels share the exposure timing for moving-part capture. Full-frame rate is 9.9 fps, and the exposure range is 10 µs to 19 µs in UltraShort mode and 20 µs to 10 s in Standard mode. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled operation are available.

Which image-reduction and I/O functions are available on MV-CT0MG0120/G?

Binning and decimation each support 1 × 1, 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 operation. Horizontal and vertical reverse-image output is available. The 8-pin M8 A-Code I/O provides one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated line for sequencing.

What enclosure conditions and temperature range apply to MV-CT0MG0120/G?

Operation is rated from –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F), with 20% RH to 95% RH (no condensation). The housing is 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") and weighs approximately 116 g (0.3 lb.). Its IP40 rating applies under proper lens installation and wiring, so the station must provide conditions consistent with that protection level.
