DESCRIPTION
The SA-FIX W camera housing is a rugged corrosion proof camera housing designed for use in onshore, offshore, marine
and heavy industrial environments. The camera housing is constructed from electro-polished 316L stainless steel for
maximum corrosion protection and is fitted with an 316L sun-shield, a thermostatically controlled heater element, and a
integrated wiper. The housing is not sold separately, it is only available in combination with a Siqura daylight camera
module, such as the BC822v2H3-AS, and an interface (INT-RJ/SM/MM).

INSTALLING THE CAMERA
Prior to installation and operation, carefully read all instructions the in this manual and heed all warnings.
Unpack this equipment and handle it carefully. If the package appears to be damaged, notify the shipper immediately.
Use the original packaging to transport the unit. Disconnect power supply before moving it. In case of returning the equipment, the original
packaging must be used.
Make sure that the installation surface can support at least four times the weight of the unit in normal operating conditions. In case of
excessive external stress (e.g. vibration, strong winds or impact), the equipment may need additional means of protection.
Proper stainless steel hardware should be carefully chosen to fasten the unit to the surfaces.
Use caution when lifting and assembling the unit. It is recommended that non-slip protective gloves be worn during installation. The unit
could bear sharp edges.
Trying to manually force the wiper will result in damaging the device and will void the warranty.
To maintain the IP rating of the unit, adequate cable glands must be used. The unit must be tightly closed when operating.
For security reasons, do not install the unit in the proximity of water containers and never push objects or pour liquids into the unit. The
unit can be safely used in damp environments or outdoors, as long as the connectors are properly sealed.
Video and data cables should not share the same conduit with supply voltage cables. Whenever EMC is an issue, adequately shielded
cables must be used.
Open only the covers pointed out in this installation manual. Other covers should be open only by the manufacturer.
This equipment has been designed to fit in harsh environments requiring little or no maintenance. Suggested inspection interval is 6
months, but extremely harsh environments may require more frequent inspection and maintenance checks. On each inspection check the
O-ring seals and the eventual window wiper blade integrity. Replace them if necessary.
Check cables, electrical connections and mounting hardware for integrity and tightness. Replace or tighten any damaged/loose part.
Operating temperature: -20° +55° C (-4° +131° F).
Before performing any operation, turn off the power. The installation of the unit can be performed only by qualified personnel in accordance
with the regulations in force. Do not connect the unit to a supply circuit unless the installation is completed.
Check carefully the supply voltage marked on the label. Incorrect Power Supply Voltage may damage the unit. Do not overload the terminal
connection, as it may cause a fire or electrical shock hazard.
An all-pole mains switch with an opening distance between the contacts at least 3 mm in each pole must be incorporated in the electrical
installation. The switch must be equipped with protection against the fault current towards the ground (differential) and the overcurrent
(magnetothermal, maximum 15A). It must be very quickly recognizable and readily accessible. A suitable blow fuse must also be installed
for protection.
For connection to the mains, use a multipolar cable having minimum 3x1,5 mm2 (15 AWG). The main cable must be at least protected by
an ordinary PVC sheath.
Fasten all the cables inside the housing with cables ties or other fixing means to avoid the electrical contact with surrounding parts in case
that terminal blocks screw off.
Electrical connections (such as plugs and cords) must be protected from potential hazardous environmental factors (e.g. foot traffic, hitting
objects).
Ensure that the unit case is properly earthed, connecting all the earth ground studs. Earth cable should be about 10mm longer than the
other cables on the connector, in such way that it won't be accidentally disconnected if the cable is stretched or pulled.
When leaving the unit unused for long periods, disconnect supply cables.

1. Open the housing
a. Loosen the screw at the bottom of the external rail. The screw is
fixed to a nut welded on the housing.
b. Unscrew the two M6 screws on the rear flange.
c. Slide the housing outer body away from the back flange.
Be careful not to lose screws, washers and O-rings.

2. Hang the housing body inserting the pin into the slot on the
bracket in order to perform electrical connections and maintenance
tasks inside the housing.

3. Install the camera
Mount the camera on the internal rail using one of the ¼” screws
supplied and the plastic washer. Use the included spacers to adjust
its height position. Feed the cables through the cable glands on the
rear flange and perform electrical and video connections according
to the instructions in the camera installation manual.

4. Only on housings with heater system
Perform the input and output (to the camera) voltage connections
using the PCB installed inside the housing near the rear flange.
5. Only on housings with wash wiper system [24/240VAC]
Connect correct supply voltage between pin 1 (line) and pin 2
(neutral).
Connecting pin 1 (line) to pin 3, the wiper works until pin 3 is
disconnected, then the wiper parks itself to its initial position.
A normally open switch, connected between pin1 and pin3, can be
used for this operation.

6. Close the housing.
a. Slide the housing outer body along the internal rail. The internal
rail is to be inserted in the guide fissure as shown in the picture.
Check the proper position of the seal in its groove on the rear flange.
b. Tighten the cable glands up till an 8 Nm torque ratio.
c. Tighten the two M6 on the rear flange screws to the main body.
d. Fix the screw at the bottom of the external rail to the nut welded
on the housing.

7. Connecting a external washer pump (Models with integrated IP-camera and wiper)
Models with integrated wiper are fitted with a mini telemetry receiver. Connect the washer pump to AUX 2.
(M3, pin 3 & 4)
8. Setting PTZ camera number (Analog models only)
The 8 way dip-switch on the telemetry receiver (DIS1) can be used to
set up the unit address (binary). When a switch is on the ON position,
the relative digit has value 1, otherwise the value is 0. Switch 1 is
referred to the least significant digit (20), while switch 8 is referred to
the most significant digit (27).
For example, the address 13 (00001101 in binary) can be set up
turning ON the switch 1, 3 and 4 (see figure).
