How to install AXIS TP3826-E Housing

• Assess camera compatibility: Confirm that your AXIS onboard camera model is among the selections supported by the TP3826-E Housing to ensure a secure fit and reliable operation.
• Prepare the mounting surface: Choose a suitable exterior location on the vehicle where the housing will be exposed to the environment while preserving camera field of view and accessibility for maintenance checks.
• Mount the housing: Secure the TP3826-E enclosure to the vehicle using the appropriate fasteners and mounting interface designed for exterior installation. Ensure the base plate is firmly anchored to withstand road vibrations and wind loads during operation.
• Route and protect cabling: Route camera power and data cables through approved conduits or knockouts, keeping them shielded from the elements and away from moving parts. Maintain proper gland seals and weatherproofing where applicable to preserve enclosure integrity.
• Install the camera inside the housing: Place the selected AXIS onboard camera inside the TP3826-E, align the optics, and secure the camera using the enclosure’s mounting provisions. Reconnect power and data lines as required by the camera model.

After installation, perform a functional test to verify video transmission, image quality, and camera alignment. Inspect seals and weatherproofing to ensure there are no gaps that could allow moisture ingress. Periodic maintenance checks should be scheduled to verify mounting integrity, cable routing, and camera performance in changing weather conditions.
