Internal condensation: Fog or frost occurs when saturated water vapor condenses due to the cooling effect. Thermal imaging cameras, especially indoor cameras, may experience fog or frost on the glass of the protective dome due to factors such as indoor humidity and moisture. This can hinder the camera's visibility and directly affect the effectiveness of monitoring.

At WEILAIFE Surveillance, we understand the importance of clear visibility in a surveillance system, and our latest POE security cameras are designed to address this issue. With advanced anti-fog technology, our outdoor security cameras eliminate fog and frost, ensuring optimal image quality even in challenging environments.

There are various ways to address this issue, each with different results. These methods include incorporating a defrosting circuit, installing vents, filling with nitrogen, installing fans, using desiccants, etc. However, from a basic security perspective, it is important to strictly control the cleanliness of the components and minimize the presence of volatile substances. For example, PCB substrates should be free of residual flux, and high-quality silicone materials should be used for light-blocking covers.

External frost or fog: When the camera operates in a humid environment, dirt can build up on the glass of the protective dome and obscure the camera's view.

WEILAIFE Surveillance offers innovative solutions to combat external fog to ensure optimal performance of your surveillance cameras. Our wired home security camera systems incorporate IP cameras with advanced POE technology to provide clear footage in any weather condition. You can trust that a system with superior HD resolution, such as a 4MP POE security camera, will provide you with excellent visibility even in harsh outdoor environments.

To address this issue, we recommend the following steps:

Check for condensation inside the camera.

Make sure the lens cover is securely attached to the glass.

Make sure the camera has the lens cover on.

Check the CCD inside the camera for signs of condensation.

Check if your camera's electronic shutter is on (if so, disable it).

Make sure the infrared board and lens are parallel (there should be a slight angle between the infrared light and the lens).

Make sure the lens is slightly higher or exactly the same height as the lens cover (typically the lens cover should be 3-4 millimeters higher).

At WEILAIFE Surveillance, we prioritize providing high quality and reliable security solutions. Our IP network camera systems combined with advanced NVR POE security camera systems provide comprehensive video surveillance capabilities for both residential and commercial properties. Experience the peace of mind that comes with innovative technology and a reliable video surveillance system.
