B/W Video Camera Module  
XC-E Series  
The XC-E Series are compact, light-weight one-piece black and white  
cameras incorporating the latest 1/2 and 1/3 type Interline (IT) CCD  
which produces new levels of picture detail. With dimensions of  
29 x 29 x 30 mm*, these cameras can easily be installed in places  
where installation was previously difficult for other larger cameras.  
Features  
XC-ES50/ES50CE/ES50L/ES50LCE/ES51/ES51CE/  
EI50/EI50CE/EU50/EU50CE: 1/2 type IT CCD  
XC-ES30/ES30CE/EI30/EI30CE: 1/3 type IT CCD  
Compact and light weight: 29 (W) x 29 (H) x 30 (D) mm,  
50 g except for XC-ES50L/ES50LCE:  
29 (W) x 42.5 (H) x 43.8 (D) mm, 110 g  
Near-infrared sensitivity: XC-EI50/EI50CE,  
XC-EI30/EI30CE  
The XC-E Series offer three different model ranges that only differ in  
spectral sensitivity as to suit various application environments. The  
XC-ES  
Series  
(XC-ES50/ES50CE,  
XC-ES50L/ES50LCE,  
XC-ES51/ES51CE and XC-ES30/ES30CE) are standard models for  
general use under visible light conditions. The XC-EI Series  
(XC-EI50/EI50CE and XC-EI30/EI30CE) offer excellent near-infrared  
sensitivity. Under low light conditions or when used with IR LED  
illumination systems, these cameras provide clear images. The XC-EU  
Series (XC-EU50/EU50CE) offer near-ultraviolet sensitivity in the i-line,  
or 365 nm, range. The short wavelength allows the XC-EU Series to  
capture very fine detail. All models have identical dimensions and  
controls, making them easy to interchange. A variety of settings are  
available for differing subject and lighting conditions. All camera  
control switches are accessible from the outside of the camera.  
Excellent vibration and shock characteristics make these cameras  
ideal for demanding machine vision applications.
