ToughCam-1000™ GEN II Rugged Industrial Camera

Designed & Manufactured in Canada.
CUSMA Compliant and Exempt from US Tariff

Proven as a standard for teleoperated heavy mining equipment, ToughCam-1000™ Gen II advances that success with a new-generation design for teleoperated/autonomous, and electric-drive heavy equipment. Developed and tested with multiple world-leading OEMs, it adds tighter installation fit, hardened electrical noise immunity, flexible pigtail routing, connector options, and optional integrated audio, for harsh environments where self-cleaning is not required.

RUGGED and ready for all conditions

Designed for high-vibration and high-shock applications, with rugged construction for harsh mining, construction, and industrial environments. Built for the next generation of teleoperated, autonomous, and electric-drive heavy mobile equipment.

Extreme temperature rateD

Uninterrupted operation in deep frost and temperatures as low as -40°C (-40°F) and as high as 60°C (140°F) with additional solar loading.

STRENGTHENED ELECTRICAL NOISE IMMUNITY

Engineered for reliable operation in severe EMI environments, including electric-drive and next-generation autonomous heavy equipment platforms where electrical noise can challenge conventional camera systems.

INTEGRATED SITUATIONAL AUDIO

Available with an integrated IP69 microphone, adding situational audio without a separate IP microphone, sealed enclosure, dedicated Ethernet cable, additional PoE port, or extra mounting hardware.

IP67/IP69 Rated

The Gen II camera enclosure is rated IP67/IP69 for harsh dust, water, and washdown exposure, with the cable connection rated IP67 (IP69 achievable when linerless rubber tape is applied over the mating interface).

COMPACT SIZE & POE FOR FLEXIBLE INSTALLATION

Compact 68mm x 68mm x 117mm size, perfect for tight spaces or size-limited applications. Power and video are delivered over PoE, supporting straightforward integration with compatible PoE switches or injectors and standard Ethernet infrastructure.

FLEXIBLE M12 OR AMPHENOL MIL SPEC CONNECTOR CHOICE

The pigtail connection can be routed in multiple directions using the cable-routing features on the bottom of the camera, giving installers more freedom to avoid obstructions and reduce cable strain.

CONNECTORS FOR NEW INSTALLATIONS AND RETROFITs

Available with M12 X-Coded and 19-position Amphenol pigtail options. Availability of the Amphenol connector and maintaining the same mounting pattern and width as Gen I, keeps ToughCam-1000™ Gen II backward compatible.

ONBOARD VIDEO STORAGE CAPABILITY

Available onboard storage supports continuous, motion, and pre/post-alarm recording with up to 128GB of local video memory.

What our customers are saying

"The ToughEye™ fills an important need for our mining clients who require maintenance-free optical sensors for very harsh environments, especially in Australia where temperatures can easily reach 55+ Degrees C. In this respect the ToughEye™ has been a great addition to the RCT family of products and the ExcelSense team has been great to work with for both product and sales support"

Brendon Cullen

Product Manager Automation & Control, RCT

"The ToughEye™ has been instrumental in providing an always clear view when operating our shiploaders handling steelmaking coal and potash. These allow us the ability to reduce the potential of asset damage, both on the our assets and the ship itself. We are looking forward to adding more ToughEye™ at our terminal, enabling us optimize our material handling processes."

Clinton Shaw

Assistant Maintenance Manager, neptune terminals

"With the push towards industrial automation, we see an increasing need for remote cameras and sensors in rugged industrial environments. The challenge has always been that sensors deployed in dirty environments required frequent human intervention, limiting their usability. We view the ToughEye™ as truly the first of its kind technology that is designed specifically to address this issue which will immediately create value for our customers across several mining applications"
