4K three-row color on Gigabit Ethernet
Three-row color capture over a 4096-pixel CMOS line gives MV-CL043-A1GC its specific place in the networked range. The 4096 × 3 array uses 7 × 7 µm pixels and supports a 1-Line scan. Standard operation reaches 28 kHz in Bayer 8 or Mono 8 and 9 kHz in RGB 8/BGR 8; after a reduced region of interest, RGB 8/BGR 8 can reach 40 kHz.
The combination suits continuous print, coating or color-feature inspection where an Ethernet acquisition host is preferred and the output format can be selected around throughput. Exposure spans 3 µs to 10 ms, while gain settings of 1.0×, 2.0× and 4.0× support illumination adjustment. Four configurable I/O lines on the 12-pin P10 connection allow single-ended or differential timing with the moving target.
MV-CL024-91GC offers a shorter 2048 × 3 color line but runs at 70 kHz in high-bandwidth Bayer RG 8/Mono 8. MV-CL044-91NC keeps 4096 × 3 resolution, changes the link to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet and reaches 75.3 kHz, with PoE support. For an 8192 × 3 color line over the same 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet family, MV-CL084-B1NC provides 37.6 kHz in full-resolution Mono 8/Bayer RG 8.

Selection and applications
4K three-row color inspection. GigE Bayer web scanning. Reduced-width RGB capture.
Minimum kit: Use the MV-CL043-A1GC camera, an M42*1.0 line-scan lens or adapted C-mount/F-mount optic, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and a 12 V DC to 24 V DC supply through the 12-pin P10 connector.
Nearby in the range: MV-CL024-91GC — Prefer it for a shorter 2048 × 3 line at up to 70 kHz.; MV-CL044-91NC — Prefer it for 4096 × 3 capture over 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet with PoE.; MV-CL084-B1NC — Prefer it when the color line must extend to 8192 pixels..

FAQ
How does output format change MV-CL043-A1GC line rate?
In standard operation Bayer 8 and Mono 8 reach 28 kHz, while RGB 8 and BGR 8 reach 9 kHz. RGB 8/BGR 8 can reach 40 kHz after reducing the region of interest, so full-line output and reduced-width output must be distinguished.
What lens connection and back focus apply to MV-CL043-A1GC?
The native optical interface is M42*1.0 with a 12 mm flange back length. F-mount, C-mount and other lens types may be attached through an adapter, with coverage selected for the 4096 × 3 array and 7 µm pixels.
How much electrical power does MV-CL043-A1GC require?
The camera accepts 12 V DC to 24 V DC and has typical consumption of 4.2 W at 12 V DC. Power and four configurable I/O lines share the 12-pin P10 connector, while image data uses the separate Gigabit Ethernet link.
Which operating limits matter for an MV-CL043-A1GC enclosure?
Operation is specified from -20 °C to 50 °C and 5% RH to 90% RH without condensation; storage is -30 °C to 80 °C. IP40 applies with proper lens installation and wiring, requiring external control of liquid and heavy dust exposure.
When should MV-CL044-91NC replace MV-CL043-A1GC in a design?
Both provide a 4096 × 3 CMOS array with 7 µm pixels. MV-CL043-A1GC uses Gigabit Ethernet and reaches 28 kHz at standard Bayer 8/Mono 8, while MV-CL044-91NC uses 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet and reaches 75.3 kHz.
