Waterproof Installation of Dome Cameras

Introduction
ACTi outdoor dome cameras are all waterproof, rated as IP66. However, this waterproof
condition is guaranteed only if both camera and the cables are properly sealed off. It is
necessary to use waterproof flex conduit to protect the Ethernet cable that connects the
camera from its outdoor installation spot to the indoors or to the nearest waterproof junction
box. The flex conduit can be mounted to the camera by using conduit gland (US: conduit
fitting). The conduit gland is not included to the package of the dome camera and has to be
purchased separately from local providers.
While purchasing conduit gland, the installer only needs to know the camera-side dimension. It
is 3/4”(trade size), or with actual physical diameter of 26.441mm. All the following ACTi
models have the same hole dimension: ACM-7411, ACM-7511, TCM-7011, TCM-7411,
TCM-7811, KCM-7111, KCM-7211.
As for the size of the other end of the conduit gland (hosting the flex conduit), it is up to the
user to decide. Different sizes are available in the market. It is recommended to use the size
that can host at least 1/2”(trade size) tubing so that the Ethernet cable together with RJ-45
head can go through it smoothly.
The following chapter explains how to mount the flex conduit to the camera by using conduit
gland.

Installation of Conduit
Have the Ethernet cable inserted through the
flex conduit together with RJ-45 connector.
You may also consider to do the RJ-45
connector crimping after pushing the cable
through the conduit.
Disassemble the conduit gland.
Slide the clamping nut around flex conduit
some 10-20 cm away from the top. Fit the
sealing insert (made of rubber) to the top of
the flex conduit.
On the camera side, decide which of the 2 possible holes you are going to use to connect the
flex conduit. There is one hole on the side, and one on the bottom. Whichever you pick,
remember to seal off the other one with the metal patch (included in the camera set).

Scenario 1 –using the side hole. Scenario 2 –using the bottom hole.
Screw the body of the conduit gland into the camera and fix it with the lock nut (included in
the set of conduit gland that you purchased) from the inside of the camera..
Connect the Ethernet cable to the camera’s network port.If you are not using PoE, then please
remember to pull the DC power cable through the flex conduit as well, and connect to the
camera at this point.

Push the head of the flex conduit, wrapped with sealing insert, into the body of the conduit
gland.
Screw the clamping nut tightly onto the body of the conduit gland.
Adjust the viewing angle and focus of the camera and put the dome cover back on, and tighten
it by using the screws.
You have completed a fully waterproof installation!

Installation in Humid Environment
Sometimes the installation has to be conducted in a rainy day or in a very humid environment.
In such cases the main concern is the humidity that would remain inside the camera and might
produce fog on the dome cover later.
In case of proper use of conduit, this is not the concern –the flex conduit acts as the ventilation
system linking to the dry indoor environment and eventually the humidity caused by the
installation in rainy day will be gone!
