Overview of the Honeywell 35 Series bi-spectrum thermal turret camera
- Affordable and compact solution for zone surveillance and heat monitoring
- Dual optical and thermal sensor for accurate detection 24-hours a day
- Spot temperature reading for reliable temperature recording in real-time
- Advanced video and thermal analytics including early fire warning, smoke and open flame detection
- White strobe light acts as an alert for staff or an effective deterrent for warning off intruders
The Honeywell HC35TE5R bi-spectrum turret series combines a 5MP optical sensor with a 256 × 192 thermal sensor to deliver reliable heat detection and event monitoring in all lighting and weather conditions. Offering cost-effective yet powerful performance, it comes in two lens configurations: 2.2mm optical with 2.1mm thermal, or 4mm optical with 3.5mm thermal, both ideal for wide-area coverage. With an IP66/IP67 and IK10-rated housing, it ensures reliable 24/7 operation, even in rain, fog, or snow.
Fire and smoke analytics deliver early, reliable alerts to support rapid response and reduce risk. Additionally, Smart IR up to 35m range (model dependent), wide dynamic range, and image fusion help maintain high optical visibility in low-light and pitch dark environments. The unit can be integrated with external devices and local alarm networks thanks to 2 x I/O ports. The built-in mic and speaker enables audio capture and 2-way communication.
We recommended mounting this camera to walls and ceilings with the Honeywell HA35JCBHA1 35 Series All-In-One Junction Box for effective cable management and secure installation.
Video Analytics
Equipped with advanced thermal and optical analytics, the HC35TE5R series enables intelligent detection of people, vehicles, flames, and heat anomalies. Thermal-specific analytics support early fire detection, smoker identification, and equipment monitoring, while optical-side analytics include face detection, loitering, object removal, and directional triggers like wrong-way detection. The use of bounding boxes, temperature alarms, and bi-spectral filtering helps reduce false alerts, improve situational awareness, and support both security and safety-driven use cases in enterprise and industrial settings.
Recording and Video Management
