Pelco EXBE2-2X30QF18-SPT-M1G Explosion-Proof Bispectral PTZ Camera
The Pelco EXBE2-2X30QF18-SPT-M1G is an ExSite Enhanced Bispectral 2 series PTZ camera designed for hazardous area surveillance where both visible and thermal imaging are critical. This dual-sensor system combines a 2 MP visible imager with 30× optical zoom and a QVGA (320×256) thermal channel, delivering simultaneous visible and thermal video with fusion-mode analysis. ATEX, IECEx, and UL explosion-proof certifications make it suitable for Zone 1 and Zone 21 hazardous locations.

- M1 field-terminated wiring mount for flexible installation
- Operating temperature range: -40°C to +70°C
- 5-year warranty and NDAA Section 889 compliant
Technical Highlights
The dual thermal and visible sensors enable comprehensive situational awareness in petrochemical plants, refineries, and other explosive atmospheres where hazard detection and personnel safety are paramount. The 9 fps visible frame rate combined with 30 Hz thermal capture ensures responsive monitoring across both spectrums. Advanced analytics including object detection and EIS enhance threat identification and reduce false alarms. Full ONVIF compliance ensures interoperability with standard VMS platforms and third-party systems.
Installation & Configuration
Field-terminated M1 wiring provides installers flexibility for custom cable routing in confined or complex site layouts. The IP69 rating withstands high-pressure washdowns common in industrial settings. Wide operating temperature range accommodates extreme ambient conditions without thermal drift or image degradation.
Applications
Ideal for refineries, petrochemical facilities, grain processing plants, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and other ATEX/IECEx Zone 1 or Zone 21 environments requiring certified explosion-proof surveillance with dual-spectrum capabilities.
