Product SKU: DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-1696ZJ-X-AC(OS) is an anti-corrosion pendant mount designed for selected compatible Hikvision anti-corrosion dome cameras where the camera needs to be suspended below a flat ceiling or overhead mounting surface. Manufactured from electro-polished 316L stainless steel, it provides a corrosion-resistant mounting solution for specialised surveillance environments where conventional painted mounting hardware may not be suitable. The bracket measures 136 × 136 × 306 mm and weighs approximately 1.1 kg, providing a substantial 306 mm pendant drop for the supported camera assembly. Hikvision mounting documentation specifies a maximum load capacity of 10 kg and requires the supporting structure to carry at least three times the combined weight of the camera and mount. Exact camera compatibility should be confirmed before installation.
Key Capabilities
Anti-Corrosion Pendant Mounting
The DS-1696ZJ-X-AC(OS) provides a dedicated pendant mounting interface for selected Hikvision anti-corrosion dome cameras, allowing the camera to hang below a suitable flat overhead surface.
Electro-Polished 316L Stainless Steel
The mount uses electro-polished 316L stainless steel, providing a corrosion-resistant material specification intended to complement supported anti-corrosion camera installations.
306 mm Pendant Drop
The 306 mm overall length lowers the compatible camera away from the mounting surface, helping achieve the required camera position beneath ceilings or overhead structures.
10 kg Maximum Load
Hikvision mounting documentation specifies a maximum load capacity of 10 kg when the supporting surface and fixing method are suitable for the complete camera and mount assembly.
Best For
- Anti-Corrosion Camera Installations: Designed for selected Hikvision dome cameras requiring matching corrosion-resistant mounting hardware.
- Industrial Facilities: Suitable where compatible cameras are being installed in environments that call for 316L stainless-steel mounting components.
- Ceiling and Overhead Mounting: Provides a 306 mm pendant drop where a compatible camera needs to sit below the mounting surface.
- Specialised Surveillance Projects: Useful as part of a verified Hikvision anti-corrosion camera and accessory combination.
Why Choose the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC(OS)
The DS-1696ZJ-X-AC(OS) is intended for projects where a standard painted pendant mount does not provide the preferred material specification. Its electro-polished 316L stainless-steel construction complements compatible Hikvision anti-corrosion cameras and provides a purpose-built 306 mm pendant mounting position rather than relying on generic pipework or adaptors. The 10 kg maximum load rating also supports substantial compatible camera assemblies when the mounting structure is correctly engineered. Available through Security Wholesalers, the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC(OS) should be selected only after confirming the exact camera model and mounting arrangement, as it is not a universal wall mount, PTZ bracket or explosion-proof camera accessory.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: The DS-1696ZJ-X-AC(OS) is a pendant mount, not a projecting wall-mount arm. If the camera needs to be installed from a vertical wall, confirm the compatible Hikvision wall-mount model instead.
Buyer Tip: Confirm the exact camera model before ordering. The current Hikvision documentation specifies this mount for selected anti-corrosion dome cameras, so compatibility should not be assumed simply because another camera is anti-corrosion, explosion-proof or PTZ.

Ideal Use Cases
Industrial Facilities
Provides a 316L stainless-steel pendant mounting solution for compatible anti-corrosion cameras used in demanding industrial environments.
Processing Environments
Useful where compatible surveillance equipment requires corrosion-resistant mounting hardware rather than conventional painted accessories.
Overhead Camera Positions
The 306 mm pendant length helps position a compatible dome camera below structural or ceiling surfaces.
Anti-Corrosion CCTV Systems
Designed to form part of a supported Hikvision anti-corrosion camera installation where matching mounting materials are important.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: Your exact Hikvision anti-corrosion dome camera specifically supports the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC(OS) and requires a pendant installation.
- Choose a wall mount if: The camera must project horizontally from a vertical wall rather than hang below an overhead surface.
- Confirm the camera family if: Your camera is described as explosion-proof, bullet or PTZ, because the latest Hikvision specification identifies this mount for compatible anti-corrosion dome cameras.
FAQs
- What is the Hikvision DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS used for?
The Hikvision DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS is an anti-corrosion pendant mount for selected compatible Hikvision anti-corrosion dome cameras. It provides a dedicated ceiling-mounted interface that positions the camera below a flat mounting surface. The mount is manufactured from electro-polished 316L stainless steel and should be matched to the exact camera model before installation. - Is the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS a wall mount or a pendant mount?
Hikvision identifies the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS as an anti-corrosion pendant mount, not a wall-mount arm. It is designed to suspend a compatible anti-corrosion dome camera below a flat mounting surface. If the project requires a projecting wall installation, a different compatible Hikvision wall-mount bracket should be selected. - What material is the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS made from?
The DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS is manufactured from electro-polished 316L stainless steel. This material and finish make the mount suitable for compatible anti-corrosion camera installations where standard painted mounting hardware may not be preferred. The current Hikvision datasheet lists the appearance as the natural colour of stainless steel. - What are the dimensions and weight of the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS?
The DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS measures 136 mm × 136 mm × 306 mm and weighs approximately 1.1 kg. These dimensions refer to the pendant mount itself, so additional clearance should be allowed for the compatible camera, cabling and fixing hardware when planning the completed installation. - What is the maximum load capacity of the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS?
The DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS has a maximum stated load capacity of 10 kg in Hikvision mounting documentation. The supporting surface should also be capable of carrying at least three times the combined weight of the camera and mount. For Security Wholesalers installations, the structure and fixings should therefore be assessed for the complete installed assembly. - Does the DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS fit every Hikvision anti-corrosion camera?
No. The DS-1696ZJ-X-AC-OS is intended for selected compatible Hikvision anti-corrosion dome cameras and should not be assumed to fit every anti-corrosion, explosion-proof or PTZ model. The exact camera and mounting combination should be confirmed before purchase so the correct accessory is selected.
