The user-friendly industrial camera housing is a compact, high-quality enclosure that provides optimal protection for your machine vision camera and lens. With the camera housing, it is possible to use your machine vision camera in humid and dusty environments. Machine vision cameras are a crucial part of industrial automation. Protect your camera and lens with this machine vision camera housing.
The enclosure has been developed to meet the IP67 standards. IP67 means dustproof and waterproof (protected against immersion up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes). The IP67 tested camera enclosure features a two-piece sealing concept: for the body and the lens (front cap). The enclosure concept is based on 1 part aluminum and 1 part industrial polymer. The blue aluminum part of the machine vision housing serves as a heatsink. The heatsink ensures that the heat is dissipated from the camera. At an ambient temperature above 35 degrees, it's mandatory to attach the camera enclosure to a metal profile, so that the heat can be further dissipated. The glass in the front cap of the enclosure transmits frequencies between 400 and 1000 nm.
The front cap section of the housing is modular so that different lens length can be used. Each enclosure will be delivered including a 20mm front cap and four 15mm extension rings. This allows the enclosure length to be adapted to different lens lengths. Lens length is measured from the front of the C-mount camera to the front of the lens. Maximum Supported Lens Diameter is 74mm.
With the standard package and included extension rings, the following lens lengths are possible.
- No extension ring, max lens length 18.5mm
- 15mm extension ring, max lens length 33.5mm
- 15mm + 15mm extension rings, max lens length 48.5mm
- 15mm + 15mm + 15mm extension rings, max lens length 63.5mm
- 15mm + 15mm + 15mm + 15mm extension rings, max lens length 78.5mm
Additionally, you have the option of buying the extension rings:
- VA-ACC-MVEC-267-IP-TUBEx2, two extra 15mm extension rings to support a lens length of max 108mm
This modular approach with extension rings allows the housing to be adapted to different camera and lens combinations while maintaining a secure and protected camera setup.
Note: In the event of damage to the original front cap, there is no need to replace the complete camera housing. The damaged front section can be replaced separately. The spare front cap is available: VA-ACC-MVEC-267-IP-FRONTCAP. This accessory can also be purchased together with the camera housing.

The VA-MVEC-267-IP enclosures are compatible with cameras from manufacturers such as Allied Vision, JAI, FLIR, Basler, IDS, and others. Compatibility depends on factors including the enclosure model, camera dimensions, mounting arrangement, lens dimensions, and cabling requirements.
If you are unsure whether your camera and lens setup is compatible with a VA-MVEC enclosure, or need help selecting the right enclosure, please refer to our article, “How to Check Compatibility of VA-MVEC Enclosures with Third-Party Cameras and Lenses”
Standard we include 2 different mounting plates, type1 and type2. Depending on the camera model, you only need to use one of these adapter plates. Beside Daheng Imaging we also support Basler, FLIR, Allied Vision (AVT) and many other camera models with a maximum dimension of 44x44mm.
Adapter plate 1 (29mm):

Adapter plate 2 (30mm):

Starting at 50 pieces, we can make a customized adapter plate for you, ensuring your camera fits perfectly into the housing. The maximum camera dimensions are 44x44mm. For low volume and if your camera has a height of 25-34mm, you could consider to take adapter plate 1 or 2 and drill extra holes in it to fit you camera. When the camera has a height of 29mm, it will be perfectly outlined in the center of the housing. When you camera has a height of 25 or 34mm, your camera will be 2mm off center.
Our camera housing is fully compatible with the with a cameras with maximum dimension 44 × 44 mm and from Daheng Imaging, including the MER2, MER3, ME2S, and ME2P series. Daheng cameras can typically be identified by their type number, which starts with MER2 or MER3. The housing supports cameras with USB3, GigE, and GigE with PoE interfaces. For MER2 and MER3(USB), Adapter Plate Type 1 and, for ME2P,ME2S, MER3 GigE, Apater Plate Type 2 is required. The camera enclosure provides additional protection for your Daheng Imaging camera.
Lens Compatibility: We designed the housing to accommodate our 6 mm wide-angle lens for 1.1″ sensors. Please note that this lens provides a fully clear image when used with a 1″ sensor. When used with a 1.1″ sensor, however, some vignetting (dark corners) may occur. For 1.1″ sensors, we therefore recommend using a lens with a focal length of 8 mm or longer to avoid dark corners and achieve optimal image coverage. The housing is also compatible with our M12 3.3 mm wide-angle lens.
For Daheng Imaging cameras and our VA lenses, the VA-MVEC Series datasheet includes a detailed compatibility matrix. This matrix shows the supported camera models, available lens configurations, and the corresponding housing suitability.

We initially explored several embedded vision camera and USB3 camera options for our application. Our main priorities were compact dimensions and keeping the required software development to a minimum. We selected a VEN-161 boardlevel camera. It was easy to integrate and USB3 Vision interface allowed our software team to get started quickly. The sales guy was very helpful with selecting the hardware for us. We are happy that we selected the USB3 board-level camera instead of a Mipi embedded vision camera as we didn't require now the additional driver development.
It was easy and quick process from ordering to receiving. One personal message from the team is making it even better. Thanks It was easy and quick process from ordering to receiving. One personal message from the team is making it even better. Thanks

Recently we purchased a camera with lens, and LED lights. We are not experienced with machine vision but the installation worked out fine. After installation on our laboratory we were surprised again of the high quality of the photos and the versatility of this system. (options in Galaxy viewer and integration in Python. Recently we had an issue with the software and the customer support was able to give us the relevant information to fix it within one day. The next time we need a camera we will not be looking to other suppliers but contact GeT Cameras immediately.

For a new product development there was a lot of price pressure. We needed a cheap camera. I called them and Caspar was providing great support. He even advised a cheaper camera than I had in mind. I was just surprised by the inhouse knowledge of get cameras about machine vision. Never expected this from a webshop. The image an built quality of the camera is also great. The camera feels and operates the same as our Basler cameras.

In the beginning I was sceptic because of the low prices, but support by email was great. They advise a lens and provided additional technical information. Unfortunately they don't offer a loan service, but I decided to try it. I had the cameras in house within 2 weeks and connection was easy. The SDK looks like the SDK from Basler so I felt directly comfortable with it. The camera and lens was a perfect match and now I'm able to read small DMC codes on large products with just a single camera.
