Inspection role and alternatives

Five-megapixel colour frames place this unit on the detail side of compact inspection. MV-CT0CG0050/G combines a Stacked BSI CMOS sensor, global shutter, 2448 × 2048 px colour output and 24.5 fps. Its 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels occupy a 2/3-inch sensor, while Gigabit Ethernet carries the image stream through the RJ45 connector.

The global shutter and 24.5 fps ceiling support print presence, label inspection and multi-feature assembly checks, with the full field exposed on the same timing basis. Exposure extends through 30 µs to 10 s in High Full Well Capacity mode and 5 µs to 10 s in High Sensitivity mode. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled modes allow exposure to follow external timing. The 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") body accepts C-mount optics. IP40 protection applies with proper lens installation and wiring, and the working range is –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F).

The alternatives expose trade-offs in output type, transport, resolution and frame rate. MV-CT0MG0050/G keeps 2448 × 2048 px and 24.5 fps but changes the output to Mono. MV-CT0CU0050/G uses USB 3.0 for 2448 × 2048 px colour capture at 80 fps. MV-CT0CG0032/G provides 2048 × 1536 px at 39 fps with a global-shutter colour path over Gigabit Ethernet. Retain MV-CT0CG0050/G when Color output, Gigabit Ethernet and PoE are needed together at 24.5 fps.

Selection and applications

Colour feature capture at 2448 × 2048 px. Triggered colour inspection with a global shutter. Full-frame acquisition up to 24.5 fps.

Minimum kit: Use MV-CT0CG0050/G with a C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connector, and either PoE or 9 V DC to 24 V DC power through the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection.

Nearby in the range: MV-CT0MG0050/G — Prefer it for Mono output at the same 2448 × 2048 px and 24.5 fps; MV-CT0CU0050/G — Prefer it for USB 3.0 transport at 2448 × 2048 px and 80 fps; MV-CT0CG0032/G — Prefer it for 2048 × 1536 px, 39 fps and global-shutter colour capture.

FAQ

Which suggested lenses cover the sensor in MV-CT0CG0050/G?

For MV-CT0CG0050/G, the C-mount matches are MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Their image circles cover the 2/3-inch sensor, and the 12 MP and 25 MP lens classes are above the camera’s 2448 × 2048 px matrix. Both therefore match the stated mount, sensor coverage and resolution requirement.

How should power and cabling be arranged for MV-CT0CG0050/G?

The camera accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC and also supports PoE. The RJ45 connector carries Gigabit Ethernet; the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection provides DC power and I/O when separate power is used. Consumption is typically 1.5 W at 12 V DC.

What data interface and peak acquisition rate does MV-CT0CG0050/G provide?

Data uses Gigabit Ethernet at 1 Gbit/s through RJ45 and remains compatible with Fast Ethernet. The stated full-frame ceiling is 24.5 fps at 2448 × 2048 Bayer GR 8. MVS and software meeting the GigE Vision protocol are supported.

How do shutter timing and exposure affect motion work with MV-CT0CG0050/G?

The CMOS sensor uses a global shutter, so all pixels share the exposure timing for moving-part capture. Full-frame rate is 24.5 fps, and the exposure range is 30 µs to 10 s in High Full Well Capacity mode and 5 µs to 10 s in High Sensitivity mode. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled operation are available.

Which image-reduction and I/O functions are available on MV-CT0CG0050/G?

Binning and decimation each support 1 × 1, 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 operation. Horizontal and vertical reverse-image output is available. The 8-pin M8 A-Code I/O provides one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated line for sequencing.

What enclosure conditions and temperature range apply to MV-CT0CG0050/G?

Operation is rated from –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F), with 20% RH to 95% RH (no condensation). The housing is 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") and weighs approximately 116 g (0.3 lb.). Its IP40 rating applies under proper lens installation and wiring, so the station must provide conditions consistent with that protection level.
