Introducing Vicon Capsule
Capsule provides protection for all Vicon Vantage and ViperX cameras that
are installed in outdoor or exposed environments. In particular, it prevents
the performance of the cameras from being affected by dust and moisture.
External seal Ethernet cable with ferrite
Front of Capsule (rear & front casing) Thermal Interface Material (TIM)
Lens cover Curved surface for TIM
Vicon Vantage or ViperX camera Camera-mounting screws
O-ring x 2 Internal Ethernet port
Specification and standards
Independently tested and certified to confirm:
Operation between -5°C–35°C, 10%–98% RH
Weatherproof IP65-rated enclosure (see info box, right): dust-tight and
protected against both water splashes, such as rain, and water projected
from a nozzle
IP65-rated indicates
that Capsule is suitable
for general outdoor use. It
may not meet the
requirements for IP66
(resistance to high
pressure water jets) or
IP67 (submersion in 1.5
meters of water for 30
minutes). Conversely,
equipment rated IP66 or
IP67 does not necessarily
achieve IP65 protection.

Prepare a Vicon Capsule
1.Open the Capsule by
unfastening the two latches on the
sides.
2. Ensure that the two O-rings
are in place in the two grooves
around the edge of the back
plate. If you have to fit the O-
rings, push one O-ring into the
first (slightly smaller) groove, and
then push the other one past the
first, into the second groove.
3. Peel the clear plastic coating
from the gray side of the Thermal
Interface Material (TIM) and
carefully stick the TIM to the
curved surface on the inside of the
back plate.
4. Connect the ferrite end of the
Ethernet cable to the port on
the inside of the back plate.
Install the camera
1.If a lens cover is required,
fit it over the lens on the front of
the camera by pressing until it
clicks into place.
2. Connect the free end of the
Ethernet cable to the camera,
then place the camera onto the
back plate.
3. Secure the camera to the
back plate with the two screws
supplied and tighten them.
Important: Ensure the
camera is square (parallel)
with the back plate.
4. Place the front of the Capsule
over the back, enclosing the
camera that is attached to the
back plate.

5. Fasten the latches and press
the front and back sections of the
Capsule together so that the seal
is airtight.
6. Stretch the seal around the
edge of the front window of the
Capsule. First, push each of the
four corners of the seal into the
gap between the window and the
housing. Next, starting with the
center of each edge, firmly press
the rest of the seal into the gap.
To ensure the IP rating is
maintained, check that the tightly
fitting seal appears compressed
around all the edges .
Important: If you're using
a lens cover, ensure that it is
fully in contact with the
window at the front of
the Capsule.
Tip: To fit a different camera
variant into the Capsule,
change the position of the
window by clipping it to
the appropriate slot inside
the housing.

Seal the cable connection
Important: To ensure the
seal integrity, use only the
RJ45 cable that is provided
with the Capsule unit.
1.Ensure you have the required
parts of the waterproof cable
cover and the RJ45 cable.
For non-moulded cables only:
To ensure a tight seal, add the
supplied support between the
housing (far left) and the split seal.
2. Slip the back sealing nut and
the split seal onto the cable.
3. Push the cable as far as it will
go into the front of the cover, so
that the front of the plug slightly
protrudes beyond the opening.
4. Firmly push the seal fully into
the front of the cover.
5. Twist the back sealing nut
onto the thread on the front of
the cover.
6. Remove the protective cap
from the connection on the back
of the Capsule, then attach the
RJ45 cable by twisting the front
of the cover until it clicks, which
indicates that the connection is
fully sealed.
7. After the back sealing nut is
screwed on tightly, ensure the
RJ45 plug protrudes far enough.
Before installation, test the
connection by moving the cable
in multiple directions at ground
level to ensure a good
connection is maintained.
Mount the cameras
Do not mount the assembled
unit from a ladder. Instead use a
Mobile Elevating Work Platform
(MEWP) or Aerial Work Platform
(AWP), such as a cherry picker.
Before using the camera,
remember to remove the
protective film from the window
on the front of the Capsule.
Re-use Capsules
You may remove cameras from
their Capsules and replace them
as many times as required.
Important: To ensure the
integrity of the seal and that
the enclosure continues to
meet IP65 standards, ensure
that O-rings and all other
parts, including TIMs, are in
good condition before use,
and that installation is
completed in accordance
with this guide.
Use Capsules in sunlight
If using cameras enclosed in
Capsules in strong sunlight, high
temperatures or poor airflow, to
prevent overheating, you may
want to shade the Capsules or
provide additional cooling.
