Phantom T2540

The Phantom T2540, a 4.2 Mpx, 25Gpx/s high-speed camera, combines compact design and advanced workflow features, making it ideal for detailed motion analysis in diverse environments.

Overview

The Phantom T2540, a 4.2 Mpx high-speed camera boasting a 25Gpx/s throughput, seamlessly blends compact size with sophisticated workflow features, standing out as an exemplary choice for advanced motion analysis in various environments. It’s a fresh addition to our T-Series, presenting a lower frame rate alternative to the T4040 unveiled earlier.


Featuring a 4.2 MPX BSI sensor, the T2540 accomplishes over 5,800 fps at a resolution of 2560 x 1664 and can reach up to 277,000 fps when reduced. The camera’s specifications also highlight a sensitivity quantum efficiency of 85.4% in mono and 71% in color, with binned modes achieving 82.4%. Memory options include 64, 128, or 256GB RAM, and with the FAST option, it enables a minimum exposure of 250ns.


CineMag compatibility is another notable attribute, providing both swift and secure data download from RAM and facilitating direct recording for applications requiring extended recording times. Additional supported features encompass Binned mode, which amalgamates pixels in a 2X2 format for amplified flexibility at 1MPX and below, EDR to counteract flash, 10Gb Ethernet, and programmable I/O.
