Stress Test Results#

To ensure stability when used in normal environments, Basler cameras are tested under exaggerated levels of stress.

Cameras were submitted to an independent mechanical testing laboratory and subjected to the stress tests listed below. The mechanical stress tests were performed on selected camera models. After mechanical testing, the cameras exhibited no detectable physical damage and produced normal images during standard operational testing.

Test Standard Conditions
Sine (each axis) DIN EN 60068-2-6 10–58 Hz / 1.5 mm; 58–500 Hz / 20 g; 1 Octave/Minute
10 repetitions
Shock (each axis) DIN EN 60068-2-27 20 g / 11 ms / 100 shocks positive
20 g / 11 ms / 100 shocks negative
Random (each axis) DIN EN 60068-2-64 15-500 Hz / 0.05 PSD (ESS standard profile) / 00:30 h

ace 2 and ace Cameras#

The mechanical stress tests were performed with a dummy lens connected to a C-mount. The dummy lens was 35 mm long and had a mass of 67 g. Using a heavier or longer lens requires an additional support for the lens.

boost Cameras#

  • The mechanical stress tests for cameras with a C-mount were performed with a dummy lens attached. The dummy lens was 35 mm long and had a mass of 67 g. Using a heavier lens requires an additional support for the lens.
  • The mechanical stress tests for cameras with an F-mount were performed with a dummy lens attached. The dummy lens was 48 mm long and had a mass of 246 g. Using a heavier lens requires an additional support for the lens.

pulse Cameras#

The mechanical stress tests were performed with a dummy lens attached. The dummy lens had a mass of 67 g.

dart Classic/E/R Cameras#

  • The mechanical stress tests for S-mount cameras were performed with a dummy lens attached. The dummy lens had a mass of 30 g. Using a heavier lens requires an additional support for the lens.
  • The mechanical stress tests for CS-mount cameras were performed with a dummy lens attached. The dummy lens had a mass of 67 g. Using a heavier lens requires an additional support for the lens.
  • Bare board cameras: Because the circuit board of bare board models is the same as the circuit board of S-mount and CS-mount models, individual stress tests are not carried out for bare board cameras.

dart M Cameras#

The mechanical stress tests for dart M cameras were performed with dart M bare board models.

As the components of the S-mounts and CS-mounts used for dart M cameras are identical to the mount components of the dart Classic/R cameras, the stress results are also valid for the S-mounts and CS-mounts of the dart M cameras.
