Hanwha TNO-P9082EPT1-Z 8MP Explosion-Proof AI Camera

Hanwha TNO-P9082EPT1-Z 8MP Explosion-Proof AI Camera

The Hanwha TNO-P9082EPT1-Z is a Class I, II, III Division 1 certified explosion-proof IP camera engineered for critical infrastructure in hazardous environments. Built on the proven PNB-A9082 sensor platform, this 8MP AI-ready camera combines robust explosion protection with advanced imaging capabilities, delivering reliable surveillance for petrochemical plants, mining operations, natural gas facilities, and other regulated hazardous locations.

Key Features

• 8MP resolution at 30fps video capture
• Motorized varifocal lens (5.9–13.3mm, 2.25x optical zoom)
• Horizontal field of view: 109° (wide) to 49° (zoomed)
• IP66-rated Type 4x enclosure for dust and high-pressure water jet protection
• Single PoE+ (802.3at) powered with integrated 90W thermal management
• Operating temperature range: -50°C to +55°C with integrated heater
• AI-ready platform for advanced analytics and object detection
• Sealed optical path design—no wiper maintenance required

Explosion Protection & Compliance

This camera holds FM (Factory Mutual) certification for Class I II III Division 1 Groups B, C, D, E, F, and G, along with ATEX and IECEX Zone 1/21 IIB+H2 compliance for both North American and European deployments. The Type 4x stainless steel enclosure with IP66 sealing ensures reliable operation in the harshest industrial environments without compromising optical clarity.

Imaging & Analytics

The 8MP PNB-A9082 sensor delivers sharp, detailed video at 30fps, while the motorized varifocal lens provides flexible field-of-view adjustment from 109° wide angle to 49° telephoto. The AI-ready architecture enables integration with advanced video analytics for object detection, motion analysis, and incident response in regulated settings where compliance and reliability are non-negotiable.

Power & Environmental Design

Single PoE+ feed simplifies installation in hazardous zones by eliminating separate power runs. The integrated 90W thermal management system maintains optimal performance across extreme temperature swings (-50°C to +55°C), while the sealed optical path eliminates wiper maintenance—a critical advantage in explosive atmospheres where moving parts pose operational risks.

The TNO-P9082EPT1-Z is purpose-built for high-stakes surveillance in regulated hazardous locations. Its dual certifications (FM and ATEX/IECEX) make it suitable for global deployments, whether in North American or European Class I/II/III facilities. The motorized varifocal lens and 8MP resolution strike a practical balance between field-of-view flexibility and image clarity, while the sealed design eliminates maintenance points that could compromise safety.

PoE+ powering reduces infrastructure complexity in zones where electrical isolation is paramount. The AI-ready platform positions this camera for future-ready analytics without requiring hardware replacement, making it a strategic long-term investment for critical infrastructure operators.
