Compact USB color applications

Triple-digit color capture and a sealed compact body meet in MV-CT1CU0032/G. The 1/1.8 in Stacked BSI CMOS sensor records 2048 × 1536 px Bayer GR 8 at 104.8 fps with a global shutter. Its 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels, USB 3.0 Type-C link, C-mount and 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm enclosure suit a close-host machine vision station.

The camera supports moving color-feature checks, assembly verification and label orientation where 3.2 MP detail must be captured above 100 fps. High-sensitivity exposure begins at 5 µs, and Trigger Width or Trigger Controlled operation can coordinate a short strobe. IP67 protection applies with correct lens, lens cap and wiring installation, while 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 binning or decimation offer lower-data modes.

MV-CT0MU0032/G matches 2048 × 1536 px and 104.8 fps in monochrome, but its enclosure is IP40 and its listed mass is 72 g rather than the color model's approximate 70 g. MV-CT1CG0032/G keeps color and IP67 while changing to Gigabit Ethernet and PoE; its listed rate is 77.5 fps with lossless compression enabled. Select MV-CT1CU0032/G for faster USB color imaging in the sealed short body.

Selection and applications

High-rate color assembly checks. Triggered label orientation. Compact sealed USB inspection.

Minimum kit: Pair the camera with a C-mount lens, a USB 3.0 Type-C cable, and USB power or a separate 9–24 V DC source.

Nearby in the range: MV-CT0MU0032/G — Prefer it for monochrome 2048 × 1536 px at the same 104.8 fps.; MV-CT1CG0032/G — Prefer it for Gigabit Ethernet and PoE at 2048 × 1536 px and 77.5 fps..

FAQ

Which C-mount lenses are suggested for MV-CT1CU0032/G?

The listed lenses are MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Each covers the 1/1.8 in sensor format, and the 12 MP and 25 MP lens classes are higher than the 2048 × 1536 px camera output. Both therefore meet the documented sensor coverage and nominal detail criteria.

Can MV-CT1CU0032/G be powered directly from USB 3.0?

Yes. The Type-C USB 3.0 connection carries data and can provide power; typical draw is 1.6 W at 5 V DC when fast heat balance is not enabled. USB 2.0 compatibility is also listed. A separate 9 V DC to 24 V DC source can enter through the 8-pin M8 A-Code power and I/O port.

What supports full-frame motion capture on MV-CT1CU0032/G?

The global shutter exposes the 2048 × 1536 px image together, and Bayer GR 8 reaches 104.8 fps. High-sensitivity exposure can start at 5 µs. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled modes let acquisition follow a machine sensor or defined illumination interval.

How do the two exposure ranges of MV-CT1CU0032/G differ?

High-full-well-capacity operation covers 30 µs to 10 sec with gain from 0 dB to 12.8 dB. High-sensitivity operation covers 5 µs to 10 sec and extends gain to 24 dB. The two settings provide documented alternatives for short illumination and scenes needing more gain.

What keeps the MV-CT1CU0032/G enclosure at its IP67 rating?

The IP67 rating requires proper lens, lens cap and wiring installation. The 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm camera weighs approximately 70 g and works from –30 °C to 60 °C. The humidity interval is 20% RH to 95% RH without condensation.
