HIKMICRO HF310 Heat-Resistant Camera
The HIKMICRO HF310 Series is a heavy-duty, heat-resistant thermal camera system designed specifically for continuous monitoring in extreme ambient heat environments. Encased in a ruggedized, corrosion-resistant housing, this unit is engineered to be plumbed directly into industrial air or liquid cooling systems.
When actively cooled, the HF310 can be installed in ambient environments reaching up to 200°C—making it the definitive choice for monitoring directly adjacent to furnaces, rotary kilns, and glass melting tanks where standard cameras would instantly fail. Featuring a standard 384 × 288 thermal resolution and Alarm I/O capabilities, it delivers uninterrupted thermal data and automated safety alerts in the harshest conditions imaginable.
Key Professional Advantages
Active Cooling Housing: The specialized enclosure features integrated ports for air or liquid cooling. This allows the camera body to survive and operate flawlessly in ambient air temperatures up to 200°C.
Extreme Target Measurement: While the camera survives high ambient heat, its thermal sensor is calibrated to measure process targets ranging from -20°C up to 650°C with a tight accuracy of ±2°C or ±2%.
Corrosion & Dust Defense: The heavy-duty housing not only protects against extreme heat but also acts as an impenetrable shield against highly corrosive gases, heavy dust, and moisture commonly found in foundries and steel mills.
Flexible Optics: Available in four fixed-lens configurations (3 mm, 4 mm, 8 mm, and 10 mm), allowing you to customize the field of view based on how close the camera must be mounted to the hazardous process.
Automated Safety Integration: Equipped with standard Alarm I/O interfaces, the HF310 acts as a critical safety node, instantly triggering plant alarms or emergency shutdowns if target temperatures exceed safe limits.
HF310 Series Variant Comparison
| Lens Configuration | Technical Field of View | Best For... |
| 3 mm Lens | 90° × 65° | Ultra-wide monitoring of large rotary kilns or general furnace area safety. |
