Safety
In order to be able to use this product properly and safely, every user must first read these operating
instructions and observe the safety instructions contained therein. Take care of these operating
instructions and keep them in a place where they can be accessed by everyone.
CAUTION: Failure to follow these safety instructions may result in injury or
equipment damage.
WARNING: High Voltage 36-70 VDC. If the equipment is powered from a
source other than an Eddyfi Technologies provided controller, the power supplied
to the product must have reinforced isolation from the mains with no reference to
earth ground.
CAUTION: Disconnecting the camera while the power is on can cause damage to
the camera. Disconnect the power source before servicing the product.
WARNING: Spark Hazard - Under no circumstances should this equipment be
used in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
WARNING: Intense Optical Radiation - The Spectrum 45™ camera lights are
extremely bright. Never look directly at the lights. Use a welding filter (shade #8
or higher) if inspecting the LEDs.
•The Spectrum™ 45 camera is an industrial product. All personnel operating or maintaining this
equipment must be competently trained.
•There are no user serviceable parts inside. This product may be serviced only by qualified
technicians or trained personnel.
•Eddyfi Technologies equipment is used in many varied environments from hot/dry to confined
spaces to deep underwater. Such diverse environment risks must be addressed by the operators
who are trained to work in such surroundings. As such, the operator is responsible to determine
safe site setup and appropriate procedures for operation and maintenance of the equipment.
•Do not use the product or any component exposed to pressures higher than the rated working
pressure.
•Do not operate the camera with a damaged connector or cable. Inspect connectors and cables
regularly for damage.
•Call the Eddyfi Technologies service department for assistance or service if needed.

System Setup
Unpacking Components
The Spectrum 45™ camera is shipped in a rugged case or is installed on an integrated system.
Packaging is selected to protect the camera from damage during shipping or storage. Upon receiving
your system, check the case and contents for any damage that may have occurred during transport.
Should any of these components be missing or damaged, please notify your vendor. We suggest that
when the system is re-shipped or stored for any length of time, it should be re-packaged in its original
case or be put in a cardboard box encased in high-density foam. It is also strongly advised that the case
be placed in a cardboard box again for shipping purposes. This measure greatly reduces rough handling
and subsequent shipping damage.
Mounting the Camera
The Spectrum 45 camera may come installed on an Eddyfi Technologies robotic vehicle using 3x SS M3
SHCS. The camera may be mounted in any orientation.
For custom mounting, the rear end cap has three clearance holes for M3 screws and the tube has three
M3 tapped holes to be used for a custom-made mounting bracket –see figure below. Remember to
provide minimum Ø28 mm (Ø1.12 in) clearance for the connector and locking collar. The camera may be
mounted in any orientation.
Alternatively, the camera may be clamped around the stationary portion of the 44.5 mm (1.75 in) diameter
housing. Take care that clamping arrangements do not scratch the anodizing.
CAUTION: Avoid forcing the TILT mechanisms by hand. It will wear the tilt clutch
discs. It will wear the clutch discs and could cause premature failure.
The PAN mechanism is designed with a magnetic clutch and can be moved by hand indefinitely.

Galvanic Corrosion Control
Eddyfi Technologies strongly recommends stainless steel cameras for salt water environments or other
corrosive environments. The camera warranty is conditional when aluminum body cameras are deployed
in these kinds of applications.
Cathodic protection is required whenever the camera is being deployed in a salt water environment –
either submerged or in salt spray, regardless of camera material.
Eddyfi Technologies’ cameras use aluminum marine anodes for both stainless and aluminum cameras.
Aluminum anodes are common in the marine industry and are replacing zinc anodes in many areas. For
cameras systems that are often pulled in and out of the water, aluminum anodes are especially important,
as zinc anodes tend to scale over when exposed to air and may not reactivate when submerged again.
An aluminum anode will always reactivate.
It is required that the structure to which the camera is mounted also be protected by aluminum anodes.
If the structure is of a dissimilar metal, the camera mount must be isolated from the structure. Do not mix
anode types (zinc and aluminum) on the assembly. There must be only one anode type throughout the
structure. Magnesium anodes must never be used with Spectrum™ camera installations.
Anodes are installed onto the camera as illustrated below. The anode is installed onto the mounting
bracket using an M5 x 10mm 316 SS SHCS. Contact your sales representative for replacements.

Connector Handling
Connectors are an essential part of system reliability. They should be properly maintained and cared for
to ensure long life and reliability. It is recommended to follow these steps to help prevent damage and
increase the life of connectors.
•Always put the cap back on the tether bulkhead when the tether is disconnected
•Always inspect the end of the connector prior to engaging
•Never plug in a dirty or damaged connector
•Visually align key-ways or locating pins prior to engaging the connector
•Always fully engage or tighten the connector
•Secure locking collars finger tight
•Install dummy plugs on unused connectors
•Disconnect by pulling straight, not on an angle
•Do not pull on the cable to disengage the connector
IMPORTANT: Never “Hot Plug” any connector, this will result in internal damage to the
electronics. Power down the system prior to connecting the inspection system tether.
Note:
Never use WD-40 or similar solvent-based fluids on connectors or crawlers. These will cause
the rubber parts of the connector or crawler to soften and swell rendering them inoperable.
SubConn Connector: Lubrication and Cleaning
•Periodically apply Molykote 111 silicone grease or equivalent before mating connectors
•For dry mate connections, a layer of grease corresponding to 1/10 the socket depth should
be applied to the female connector
•After greasing, fully mate the male and female connector and remove excess grease from the
connector joint
•General cleaning and removal of sand or mud on a connector should be performed using a
spray-based contact cleaner like isopropyl alcohol
Impulse Connector: Lubrication and Cleaning
•Lubricate mating surfaces regularly with 3M Silicone spray or equivalent, DO NOT GREASE
•Lubricate O-rings with Molykote 111 or equivalent
•Use dust caps to protect connectors wherever possible
•Clean connectors with soap and fresh water, rinse out with alcohol and allow connector to air
dry before using.
