Installation: IRIS710
WARNING:
Installation of the IRIS710 necessitates a hole being cut into the structure of the vessel. Although guidelines
are provided below, the responsibility to ensure the camera is installed correctly and is sealed sufficiently to
prevent water ingress belongs to the installer, who must be suitably competent. Iris Innovations Limited and
Iris Innovations USA Corporation accept no liability whatsoever for issues that may arise as the result of
improper or sub stand installation that results in damage caused directly or indirectly as a result of leakage.
IMPORTANT:
Always ensure that the vessel’s power source and battery are disconnected prior to installation
Ensure a suitable fuse or circuit breaker are used. Iris recommend a 3A fuse.
Prior to installation, ensure there is sufficient space within the vessel to accommodate the camera,
taking into consideration room to tighten the cameras lock nut and facilitate access to connect and
disconnect the cable.
Although the camera housing and rear connector are waterproof, the PoE injector may not be. Ensure
this is installed well away from any moisture or direct heat sources.
Procedure:
1) Locate the camera as desired, taking into consideration internal or external obstacles that may affect
the performance of the camera or inhibit the installation.
2) The camera should be positioned on a flat surface. Ensure the external surface of the hull (or
transom) are even and parallel. It may be necessary to sand or grind the surface.
3) Once the installation area is prepared, drill a 90mm (3.54”) hole using a suitable pilot hole and hole
saw.
4) Ensure the inner hull surface is sealed to prevent water intrusion into the hull before the camera is
secured in place.
5) Ensure that the hull surface is free from dirt, grease and debris. Remove anti-foul from the hull
surface where the camera bezel will sit.
6) Use a suitable marine adhesive sealant (3M 4200 for example) to apply a liberal bead of sealant
around the entire circumference of the back side of the bronze bezel. A channel is machined into the
back of the bezel - ensure this is completely filled with sealant.
7) Apply a bead of sealant around the edge of the 90mm (3.54”) hole.
8) Carefully slide the camera into the hole, ensure the orientation of the camera is as required. The
camera is shipped with a removable stick-on arrow to indicate the ‘top’ of the cameras field of view.
9) From inside the vessel, slide the rubber spacer rings over the camera shaft as required to ensure the
lock nut will provide a suitably tight fixing. Two rings are supplied.
10) Screw the lock nut in place and hand tighten. Do not lock fully in place at this stage.
11) Connect the waterproof RJ45 plug into the back of the camera. Details on connecting to the network
via a PoE injector are listed above.
12) Ensure the camera orientation is as desired. Make any changes to the cameras orientation now
before the sealant cures and the lock nut is fully tightened.
