Dahua DH-EPC245U-PTZ-IR — 2MP 45x Optical Zoom Explosion-Proof PTZ Camera
The Dahua DH-EPC245U-PTZ-IR is a 2MP pan-tilt-zoom camera built for demanding outdoor and hazardous-area sites, combining a 45x optical zoom with an explosion-proof, corrosion-resistant housing rated ATEX and IECEx.
Who is it for?
PTZ cameras cover a wide area from one mounting point, giving operators (or auto-tracking) pan/tilt/zoom control to follow activity or zoom into detail — useful for open sites, car parks, perimeters and any area too large for a single fixed camera to cover in detail. The DH-EPC245U-PTZ-IR's explosion-proof, 316L stainless steel housing and IP68 rating make it particularly suited to industrial, marine, oil & gas and other hazardous or corrosive environments where a standard PTZ housing would not be certified for use.

Frequently asked questions
