Instruction Manual - H4 Security Camera Housing w/Heater & Blower
These housing are designed with ease of installation and excellent environmental performance
in mind. With cable entry options through the rear cap and the mounting foot, these features
will allow for a variety of installation options. The accompanying mount permits cable
concealment when the cables are routed through the mount.
The all-aluminum construction is coated with a light colored UV protected power paint for
minimum heat absorption and environmental sealed with all UV protected silicone gaskets. The
3mm glass viewing window provides for HD optical clarity that will not fad or yellow over time.
Sized to fit a varying range of cameras and lenses, these housing provide a perfect complement
to most complete security and surveillance system solutions. Contact your security dealer or
customer service representative to match the best equipment and devices for your application.

pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
10. Power Lines - An outdoor system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outdoor system,
extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be
fatal. U.S.A. models only - refer to the National Electrical Code Article 820 regarding installation of CATV systems.
