More

Manta G-031 is a fast GigE Vision camera. Manta G-031 is offered in both monochrome and color models. It incorporates the high quality Type 1/4 (4.5 mm diagonal) Sony ICX618 CCD sensor. The EXview HAD CCD sensor is very sensitive both in the visible spectrum and in the near-infrared spectrum. At full resolution, this camera runs 125.2 frames per second. With a smaller region of interest, higher frame rates are possible.

Manta is one of Allied Vision's versatile GigE Vision cameras with a wide range of features. Particular highlights are the three look-up tables, sophisticated color correction capabilities, a robust metal housing, and many modular options. By default monochrome models ship with B 270 ASG protection glass and color models ship with a Type Hoya C-5000 IR cut filter.

Hardware options

Various housing options: Select between standard housing, angled-head, or board level versions
Various lens mounts: Select between C-Mount, CS-Mount, or M12-Mount (adapter)
Various optical filters: Select between B 270 ASG protection glass and filter types: Jenofilt 217 IR cut filter, Hoya C-5000 IR cut filter, RG715 IR pass filter, or RG830 IR pass filter.
Available with Power over Ethernet compliant interface
Available with white medical design
