Case study: over 900 camera packages Netherlands road tunnels
Background – tunnel environment requirement for Coen, Velser and Koning Willem-Alexander road tunnels
– limited available space in the tunnel to mount camera
– harsh environment: conventional, lower-quality cameras packages need replacing within 1 to 2 years
– extreme wind and dust abrasion forces due to passing traffic (especially lorries and trucks)
– low level of maintenance required due to limited access to the camera
– extreme fast swapping time in case of replacement
The Ministry of Infrastructure selected Akkadia’s Aker 1000 PTZ tunnel camera packages because:
– extremely ruggedised due to materials used: stainless steel A316Ti, IP68 (tested - submersed in 25cm water for 4½ months)
– scratch-free, fused quartz glass front cover with high temperature resistance and light intake enhancement
– industrial connector with 1 umbilical cable combining mains, video and data
– extremely easy to install especially for maintenance; average swap-time of less than 7 minutes
– camera enclosure accommodates up to 128mm zoom lenses inclusive of a normal sized ½" CCD camera
– nanotechnology on glass front avoids using wipers
Contract win argument:
Lowest Total Cost of Ownership & Utilisation (TCO/U) over 15 years tunnel system’s lifecycle
