Security

When we think about buying or installing an outdoor security camera, we often look for the picture quality, advance feature, or night vision. But we usually don’t check for the material they are made from. Material of a CCTV Camera is very important because durability of your CCTVs depends highly on this.

We should firstly think, will my camera work properly in this environment for a long time? In India’s harsh climates, salty coastal air, heavy monsoon rains, and dusty highways, can lead to your camera getting rusted or corroded. We can prevent it, with anti-corrosion aluminum CCTV cameras. These cameras are durable, weatherproof, and reliable. So this time if you are going to invest in a CCTV Camera, invest smartly in long-lasting surveillance systems.

Let me make it more clear for you.

Why Material Matters in CCTV Systems

The Housing and Mounting structure of CCTV cameras is as important as the lens, sensor, and electronics.

  1. Camera housing is the outer shell or casing that protects the camera unit whereas
  2. Camera mount is the bracket, arm, or pole that the camera is attached to.

They protect the cameras from sun, rain, wind, and dust. So even if your camera’s lens and electronics are working fine your camera won’t last long, will shake, bend, or fall.

Let us understand how long a camera housing or mount of different material will last:

  1. Plastic housings and mounts: A plastic housing is quite affordable but they are only suitable for indoor cameras. They will crack, fade, or warp if they are exposed to heat for a long time.
  2. Steel housings and mounts: A steel housing is strong but they can be rusted in monsoon season, heavy rain, or coastal areas.
  3. Anti-corrosion aluminum housings and mounts: An anti-corrosion aluminum housings is lightweight, rust-proof, weatherproof, and durable. These housings are designed to last in extreme outdoor conditions like heavy rain, extreme heat, or coastal areas.

That’s why If you are looking for an outdoor security camera, go for anti-corrosion cameras with aluminium mount for home-security, outdoor-security, or indoor surveillance.

Key Benefits of Anti-Corrosion Aluminum CCTV Cameras

  1. Resistance to Harsh-Weather: Weatherproof CCTV cameras with aluminium housing and mount can prevent rust or corrosion. Aluminium naturally forms an oxide layer that protects it from rust, and when treated with anti-corrosion coatings, it becomes even more durable. They are designed to resist harsh weather conditions, heavy- rains in monsoon, dusty highways, or humid coasts . They work properly 24/7, are reliable, and can last-longer.
  2. Enhanced Stability for Clear Surveillance: If the material of mount is not strong, gets corroded, or rusted, the camera can shake or even fall. This can affect video-quality, or your camera can be broken from falling. If your camera is attached with an anti-corrosion or rust-proof mount, it will stay steady, give you good picture quality, and reliable footage.
  3. Reduced Maintenance Costs: If your camera is rust-free then you will need less maintenance, repairs, and replacements. So you won’t need to invest so much money for outdoor security.
  4. Lighter, Stronger, Easy to Install: Aluminium is lighter than steel but still strong enough to handle wind, vibrations, and extreme weather. It is also quite easy to install.

Best Use Cases for Anti-Corrosion Aluminium CCTV Cameras

1. Coastal Areas: In coastal cities people should buy or install anti-corrosion aluminium CCTV Cameras with aluminium mounts as the salty sea air in these cities can damage the ordinary housings and mounts.

2. Smart Cities & Highways: These anti-corrosion CCTV cameras ensure reliable outdoor surveillance in open, weather-exposed locations such as traffic signals, bridges, and roadside poles.

3. Industrial Environments: These cameras are reliable, efficient, and can last-long in factories and industrial areas which often face heat, chemical exposure, and high pollution.

4. Residential Societies: These are very cost-effective and the best choice if you are looking for CCTV Cameras for homes and housing complexes.
