The Hikvision DS-2XC3386G0H-LISU/SL (PA) is a high-performance 8MP anti-corrosion fixed turret camera built for extreme environments where standard metal-bodied cameras cannot survive. Its polymer enclosure provides exceptional resistance to salt, chemical vapours, high humidity and industrial contaminants, making it suitable for coastal sites, marine vessels, chemical plants, food-processing plants and heavy industrial locations.
With an 8-megapixel (3840 × 2160) image sensor, the camera offers sharp, detailed video across large open spaces. The available 2.8mm and 4mm fixed lenses deliver wide coverage, supported by advanced image technology including 120dB WDR, 3D noise reduction and distortion correction. This ensures clear, stable imaging even in difficult lighting conditions such as backlight or hazy industrial air.
The camera features an IP68 weather rating and is designed to withstand harsh outdoor exposure. Its polymer anti-corrosion housing carries severe-duty classification suitable for coastal and marine applications. For intelligent monitoring, the unit includes HEOP (Hikvision Embedded Open Platform) processing power for onboard analytics such as human/vehicle detection, helmet detection, people counting and third-party applications.
Audio input/output and alarm I/O expand integration options, enabling local siren, strobe, speaker or relay-based automation. Combined with professional-grade video compression and strong cybersecurity features, the DS-2XC3386G0H-LISU/SL (PA) provides a specialised surveillance solution for environments where durability is critical.

Installer Notes
-
Use this camera in environments where metal housings would corrode quickly (salt air, chemical vapour, industrial humidity).
-
Ensure mounting brackets and conduit used are also corrosion-resistant; standard hardware may deteriorate rapidly.
-
Confirm the mounting surface is suitable and will not chemically react with the polymer housing.
-
Avoid installing inside metal enclosures or behind metal barriers to prevent interference with the hybrid light and sensors.
-
Seal all cable entries properly to maintain IP68 protection.
-
After installation, test analytics such as human/vehicle detection or PPE compliance (e.g., hard-hat detection).
-
Periodically inspect the camera for dirt or chemical residue on the lens and clean using non-corrosive cleaning agents.
-
Perform firmware updates regularly to maintain security and analytics performance.
Use Cases
1. Coastal & Marine Environments
Ideal for jetties, marinas, ports, shipping terminals and waterfront homes where salt exposure destroys standard cameras.
2. Chemical Processing Facilities
Suitable for areas with acidic or alkaline vapours, chemical mist or harsh industrial cleaning agents.
3. Offshore Oil & Gas Platforms
Designed for wind, salt spray and rapid corrosion environments, providing stable long-term monitoring.
4. Food & Beverage Manufacturing
Great for environments with continuous wash-downs, cleaning chemicals and moisture exposure.
5. Wastewater Treatment & Industrial Plants
Handles humidity, corrosive gases and chemical by-products found in treatment and industrial processing facilities.
6. Industrial Marine Vessels & Boats
Can be mounted on boats, barges or ships where metal cameras quickly corrode.
FAQs
Q: What does the “PA” suffix mean?
It indicates the Polymer Anti-Corrosion version, designed for severe environments with salt or chemical exposure.
Q: Is this suitable for coastal and marine installations?
Yes. The polymer housing and IP68 rating make it ideal for coastal wind, salt spray and marine environments.
Q: Does it support smart analytics?
Yes. The built-in HEOP platform supports human/vehicle classification, PPE detection, people counting and third-party applications.
Q: What lens options are available?
2.8mm for maximum wide-angle coverage or 4mm for longer detection distance.
Q: Can it integrate with local alarms or sirens?
Yes. The camera includes alarm input/output and audio interfaces for linking to external speakers, strobes or relays.
Q: What maintenance does it require?
Minimal. Periodic cleaning of the lens and checking seals is recommended for long-term corrosion resistance.
