B/W Camera in Operating PIR Motion Sensor Housing
(VL-272PIR)

Our 1/3" B/W interline CCD camera is a fully functional PIR motion detector.
It has a 0.5 lux with 480 line resolution. It features a 3.6mm pin hole lens with built-in electronic shutter, a normally open and normally closed trigger, and swivel mount. A 12V DC power supply is also included. A color version of this camera can be found under model number VL-572PIR. A non-functioning PIR housing camera can be found under model number VL-265PIR (B/W) and VL-565PIR (Color).
