HIKROBOT MV-CI003-GL-N6 — Area Scan Cameras
0.3 MP, 640×512, EFL 6.3 mm, GigE, Uncooled Vanadium Oxide Detector

The MV-CI003-GL-N6 is the wide-angle member of the CI series, using a 640×512, 17 μm-pitch uncooled vanadium oxide detector at up to 50 fps. With a 6.3 mm effective focal length — the shortest among its 15/25/35 mm siblings — it delivers the widest field of view in the family, making it suited to close-range, broad-surface scanning. It streams Mono 8/12/14 and YUV422 imagery over GigE.
The camera is GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam compatible, supporting up to 100 m of cable run without a repeater. Power and I/O share a single 6-pin P7 connector (1 opto-isolated input, 1 opto-isolated output, 1 bidirectional non-isolated I/O), and PoE support removes the need for a separate power cable, with 9-24 VDC as an alternative. The compact 58×58×115.5 mm M34×0.75-mount housing has mounting holes on 4 panel sides.

Where it is used
Its wide field of view suits close-range, broad-coverage tasks such as overall scanning of electrical panels and distribution cabinets, whole-surface hotspot checks on large equipment, and general in-plant thermal screening. Its compact body integrates easily into fixed-mount continuous-monitoring lines.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
