Offering extended sensitivity to below 200 nm, the JAI CM-140PMCL-UV is part of the C3 Compact series of cameras using a 1/2" monochrome, progressive scan UV-sensitive CCD sensor with 1.4 million pixels resolution (1392 x 1040 pixels) and Power-over-Mini-CL interface.

The camera outputs 16 full frames/second in continuous (free-run) mode with higher frame rates achievable using the Partial Scan mode (38 frames/second) or Vertical binning mode (25 frames/second).

For proper and safe operation, PoCL cameras require a compatible frame grabber. The camera complies with the "Safe Mode" feature stipulated by the PoCL standard.
