Rugged-environment IP cameras, ONVIF-conformant so they suit the VMS you already run.
Pelco build IP cameras for rugged environments as well as discreet indoor ones. They are ONVIF-conformant, so they integrate with any conformant video management system rather than locking the site to one supplier.

ONVIF-conformant: works with any conformant VMS
AI-driven insights and real-time alerts on the camera itself
A weatherproof IP camera is the ordinary building block of outdoor surveillance on an
industrial site. Two things separate it from an indoor camera: the enclosure is sealed against
driven rain, dust and wash-down, and the video leaves the camera as a network stream rather
than as an analogue signal on coaxial cable.
The network part matters more than it first appears. Because the camera is an IP device it
shares the structured cabling and switches already on site, and it is added to the recording
system as a configuration change rather than as a new cable run back to a matrix. Adding a
camera later becomes a question of whether there is a spare port near it, which is a much
easier problem than pulling coaxial across a live plant.
Pelco make a point of being ONVIF-conformant, and that is worth understanding before you
buy anything. ONVIF is the interoperability standard for network video: a conformant camera
will work with a conformant VMS regardless of who made either. In practice it means a site
can add cameras to the recorder it already has, or change VMS later, without replacing the
cameras - which on a large installation is the difference between an upgrade and a rebuild.
Pelco describe their devices as an open platform for exactly this reason.
Their current cameras also carry analytics on the device, producing what Pelco call
AI-driven insights and real-time alerts rather than simply recording. That shifts a site from
someone watching monitors to the system raising something worth looking at, which is the only
approach that scales past a handful of cameras. Which model suits a given position depends on
the distance at which you need to detect, recognise or identify, and that is what a
field-of-view study settles.
Features
ONVIF-conformant. Integrates with any conformant VMS, so cameras and
recording software are not tied to each other.
Made for rugged environments. Pelco's range spans hard outdoor duty
through to discreet indoor models.
On-camera AI. AI-driven insights and real-time alerts, so the system
flags events rather than only storing them.
Open platform devices. Pelco's stated design position, which keeps a
future VMS change from meaning new cameras.
IP video over existing cabling. Uses the site network and switches
rather than dedicated coaxial runs.
Cloud-based options. Pelco offer cloud-based AI alongside on-premises
recording.
Applications
Weatherproof IP cameras cover most of the outdoor surveillance on a working site, from
the boundary inwards.
Oil, gas and petrochemical. Tank farms, process roads, jetties and
loading racks.
Ports, terminals and marine facilities. Quaysides, gates and container
yards, where salt air is constant.
Power generation and utilities. Switchyards, compounds and unmanned
substations.
Water and wastewater treatment. Open basins and wash-down areas.
Mining and bulk handling. Conveyors and stockpiles, where dust rather
than water is the problem.
Logistics and industrial estates. Yards, vehicle gates and loading
aprons.
A site rarely uses one type. Weatherproof cameras handle the defined scenes, PTZ units
cover the open areas, and thermal is added where detection has to work without light.
Support & Documents
PT Vivo Asia Teknologi Indonesia supplies surveillance equipment as part of a designed
and commissioned system rather than as a boxed item. Our scope typically covers:
Site survey, camera placement and field-of-view study against your actual site.
System design, including transmission, power, recording capacity and mounting.
Supply, installation, termination and commissioning.
Integration with your VMS, access control and PAGA or alarm systems.
Analytics configuration and tuning to bring false alarms down to a workable level.
Operator and maintainer training, with ongoing maintenance and support.
Optical, electrical and approval details vary by variant and are confirmed against the
current manufacturer datasheet at quotation stage. Tell us the area to be covered, the
detection distance you need and the site conditions, and we will come back with the right
variant and a full bill of materials.
