Intended use and safety
17Alvium IP Housing Kits User Guide V1.0.0
Intended use
Allied Vision’s objective is the development, design, production, maintenance,
servicing and distribution of digital cameras and components for image processing.
We are offering standard products as well as customized solutions.
Intended use of Allied Vision product is the integration into Vision systems by
professionals. All Allied Vision product is sold in a B2B setting.
Allied Vision isn’t a legal manufacturer of medical product. Instead, Allied Vision
cameras and accessories may be used as components for medical product after
design-in by the medical device manufacturer and based on a quality assurance
agreement (QAA) between Allied Vision (supplier) and medical device
manufacturer (customer). Allied Vision’s duties in that respect are defined by ISO
13485, clause 7.2 (customer-related processes, equivalent to ISO 9001, clause 8.2).
Your safety
Mounting IP housings
IP housings must be mounted using the 4 mounting threads. Falling IP housings
can hurt you. To avoid personal injury:
• Ensure proper mounting of IP housings to mounting bases.
• Apply threadlocker for screw connections.
• Especially for dynamic applications, observe the supported values confirmed
by tests for Shock and vibration on page 20.
• Follow the instructions in Mounting the Camera Tube and the lens on page 36.
Product safety
To prevent material damage, read the following to understand risks in using Alvium
IP Housing Kits.
Lenses and Lens Tube windows
For dynamic applications, the supported maximum lens mass is 70 g. See Shock
and vibration on page 20.
Ensure the Lens Tube is large enough for your lens. Observe that some lenses
increase length for various focus settings. With unsuitable lenses, the front
element of lenses or the window of the Lens Tube can be damaged.
Protect the window of the Lens Tube from scratches. They may be out of lens focus
or out of the angle of view, but direct light can cause unwanted flares.

Intended use and safety
18Alvium IP Housing Kits User Guide V1.0.0
Joining tubes
If the tubes are screwed together at an angle, the threads can be damaged. We
recommend you to rotate the Lens Tube and the Camera Tube against each other
counterclockwise until you feel the threads engage before you rotate them
clockwise to join them.
Using seals
If seals are missing or have not been mounted properly, IP housings are not tight as
specified. Ensure to use all seals as described in the instructions.
