At OHWOAI Surveillance, we understand the importance of maintaining clear and reliable surveillance footage. Fog or frost formation can hinder the visibility of your security cameras, affecting their monitoring effectiveness. In this article, we will explore methods to address fogging issues, both internally and externally, while incorporating relevant keywords to enhance search engine optimization.

Internal Fogging: Fog or frost forms when the saturated water vapor in the air condenses due to cold temperatures. Infrared cameras, especially indoor ones, are susceptible to fog or frost on the protective cover's viewing window, obstructing the camera's view and compromising monitoring results.

To tackle this issue, various approaches can be employed. These include implementing defrosting circuits, providing ventilation openings, nitrogen gas infusion, installing fans, and utilizing desiccants. Each method yields different outcomes, with some more effective than others. However, from a fundamental security perspective, rigorous control over component cleanliness is crucial. Measures such as thorough cleaning of components, ensuring the absence of residual flux on PCB boards, and using high-quality silicone for light-shielding covers are highly recommended.

External Fogging: In high-humidity environments, surveillance cameras can encounter visibility issues due to dirt accumulation on the protective cover's viewing window, obstructing the camera's line of sight.

To address this problem, consider the following solutions:

Check for internal condensation.

Ensure the lens cover is tightly attached to the camera's glass.

Verify that the camera is equipped with a lens cover.

Inspect the CCD inside the camera for condensation.

Determine if the electronic shutter is enabled and disable it if necessary.

Confirm that the infrared light board is parallel to the lens, maintaining a certain angle between them.

Verify that the lens cover is slightly higher or precisely the same height as the lens itself (typically, the lens cover should be 3-4 millimeters higher).

By following these procedures and incorporating OHWOAI Surveillance's advanced 8-channel IP camera systems, 4K security cameras, PoE (Power over Ethernet) capabilities, and 24/7 recording features, you can enhance your circuito cerrado de cámaras (closed-circuit camera) and store surveillance camera system. Our indoor CCTV cameras offer reliable and high-quality performance to meet your security needs effectively.
