CC640 Digital Camera for Harsh Environments

CC640
Digital Camera for Harsh Environments
The CC640 Digital Camera, manufactured by
Campbell Scientific Canada, works in harsh, remote
locations. It operates at temperatures as low as -40°C,
while using minimal power. Three communications
ports (RS-232, RS-485, CS I/O) facilitate transfer of
images to a datalogger.
Our dataloggers trigger image acquisitions by applying
a 5 to 12 V signal. The CC640 also has a stand-alone
mode that allows the camera to store images on a
CompactFlash® card—without the use of a datalogger.
In this mode, image acquisitions are triggered by the
camera’s precision real-time clock.
The CC640 can store JPEG images on a CompactFlash
card or in the datalogger’s memory. To send images
to the datalogger’s memory, the datalogger must
have the PakBus® communication protocol and
at least 2 Mbytes of memory. Compatible dataloggers include our CR800, CR850, CR10X-2M-PB,
CR1000, and CR3000.

Datalogger Connection
If the distance between the camera and datalogger is
less than 25 feet, the CC640 typically connects to the
datalogger via the COMCBL1-L cable. When Campbell
Scientific’s MD485 Multidrop Interface is used, the
camera and datalogger can be at a distance of up to
4000 feet. Our MD485 interface connects to the camera via the CABLE5CBL-L cable. The CABLE3CBL-L
cable is used for the power and pulse connections.
A CC640 stationed atop the University of Alberta’s Tory Building
took this photograph of North Saskatchenwan River Valley.
The 18543 camera enclosure completely encloses the
camera and has a window through which images are
acquired. A defrost kit is available for the window.
The CC640 operated in extreme temperatures to provide this
photograph of a mountain pass in Alaska.
