Pelco IRN10A9AS00 940nm Covert IR Illuminator
The Pelco IRN10A9AS00 is a precision covert IR illuminator designed for long-range surveillance applications requiring narrow-beam infrared coverage. Operating at 940nm wavelength with a tight 10-degree beam angle, this unit delivers approximately 140m maximum illumination range while maintaining complete covert operation—no visible LED glow. Direct AC mains connection (100–240V wide-range input) eliminates the need for separate DC power supplies, simplifying installation in commercial and government deployments.
Key Features
- 940nm wavelength for covert operation with zero visible output
- 10-degree narrow beam angle for concentrated long-range illumination
- Approximately 140m maximum effective range
- 100–240 Vac direct mains input eliminates DC power supply requirements
- Purpose-matched for telephoto camera configurations
- NDAA Section 889 compliant for government and regulated installations
- 5-year warranty backed by Pelco global service network
Technical Highlights
The 10-degree beam concentrates all IR energy into a narrow corridor, maximizing distance capability while minimizing wasted illumination. This design is ideal for fixed-position telephoto camera setups where the field of view is already constrained. Precise optical alignment between illuminator and camera is critical—beam misalignment directly reduces effective range and image quality. At 940nm, infrared sensor efficiency is substantially lower than 850nm alternatives; confirm your camera produces identification-grade imagery at the target 140m distance before deployment.
Applications
Suitable for perimeter security, long-distance covert surveillance, government and military installations, and enterprise-grade commercial monitoring where discrete infrared illumination is required. Engineered for professional installation workflows and withstands environmental demands of industrial surveillance applications.
Alternative Options
Pelco offers broader-beam variants: 30-degree model (IRN30A9AS00, ~80m range) and 60-degree model (IRN60A9AS00, ~60m range) for wider coverage. For low-voltage sites, the IRN10B9AS00 operates on 24 Vac or 12/24 Vdc inputs.
