CCTV Maintenance, A Chore That Has To Be Accomplished
Everyone has had something break and has had to repair it. In many cases the repair of the machine can nearly exceed the cost of a new one. The repair or replacement of the part that failed causes downtime increases costs and provides frustration to the owner. CCTV systems are no different. CCTV maintenance reduces costs and eliminates both downtime and frustration.
Your car requires periodic preventative maintenance; you change the oil and filters. You follow the service recommendations in the owners’ manual. This is periodic maintenance. The CCTV system needs periodic CCTV maintenance also. The mounts that the cameras and monitors are hung from need to be inspected to insure bolts are tight and the mount is safe. The camera housing needs to be inspected to insure that it is watertight. The fan for cooling the inside of the housing and the heater to heat the housing must be checked to make sure that they are working properly. A camera that becomes too hot or too cold will have a shorter lifespan than one that is kept in proper operating temperatures.
Heat or sunlight can cause the insulation of the cables that run to the camera to become deteriorated should they not be protected from the environment. This deterioration of the cables will lead to an unusable video picture. Head end equipment, multiplexer, recorder and monitor must all be cleaned periodically. Dust that can accumulate in vent holes will shorten the life span of any electronic component by reducing the air flow through the vent holes. The heads on video tape recorders must have a periodic cleaning. As the tape runs across the heads it can leave deposits on the heads. If these deposits become heavy enough, the video signal will not record on the tape leaving the owner with a blank tape instead of a tape filled with data.
CCTV maintenance contracts are available for CCTV systems. These maintenance contracts insure that inspections are made of all the CCTV equipment in the CCTV system and that the system is functioning the way that it should. Many CCTV maintenance contracts also insure against the failure of any component in the system and that the failed component will be replaced.
The CCTV maintenance contract is a wise expense for the client. Should a component in the system fail, the cost of that individual component could be of a greater dollar value than the total cost of the maintenance contract. The owner of the CCTV system can be sure that their CCTV system is functioning properly and a lack of maintenance on the CCTV system will not contribute to the premature failure of the system.
So now you know why CCTV maintenance is important. Find out more: CCTV Maintenance
