Robust, Lightweight Housing for Inline Cameras

The APG 22C Series enclosure delivers dependable, basic protection for modern inline machine-vision cameras, combining rugged construction, compact form factor, and flexible configuration to suit a wide range of industrial applications. 

The 22C series enclosure is built to safeguard sensitive optical devices from dust, dirt, mild water exposure, and incidental contact, while remaining lightweight and easy to integrate. It is a go-to solution for automation, robotics, and enclosed-environment vision systems.

Many off-the-shelf camera enclosures are either too bulky for robotic arms or lack flexibility in lens/cable configuration. The 22C Series bridges that gap by offering:

  • A purpose-built platform for modern inline cameras (30 × 30 mm), rather than a one-size-fits-all enclosure.
  • A balance between protection and form factor, delivering dust and splash protection while remaining lightweight enough for dynamic mounting.
  • Versatility via optional accessories (air curtain, lens/ring-light support, pan/tilt mount) making it useful across many different vision-system setups.
  • High-quality construction and materials for long-term reliability in industrial environments.

APG 22C Key Features:

  • Built specifically for compact inline cameras with a 30 x 30 mm cross section for seamless integration
  • Supports standard camera lenses up to 48mm in diameter and ring lights up to 50 mm outer diameter
  • Durable and industrial-grade construction (6061 aluminum construction)
  • Tool-less access to camera
  • Compact, lightweight and robot ready weighing only 19.7 oz
  • Flexible viewport options to match your optical and environmental requirements
