ToF depth cameras rated to 60 °C or higher for use near a foundry furnace

Asked as: “Is there any ToF depth camera rated to 60 °C or higher? It's going near a foundry furnace.”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

No — I could not find any ToF depth camera rated to 60 °C or higher. The highest stated maximum operating temperature among the ToF depth cameras in our catalog is 50 °C, so for a foundry furnace environment none of them meets your rating as stated. I also can't confirm the Basler models' limits: their maximum operating temperature is not listed in the catalog, so I can't treat them as meeting 60 °C either.

Here is the full picture of what I verified — the ToF depth cameras and their stated temperature ratings:

For your furnace-side deployment, the closest verified options are the DepthVista_MIPI_IRD and DepthVista_USB_RGBIRD at 50 °C — still 10 °C below your requirement, and I would not present them as meeting it. If your mounting location's ambient temperature is genuinely 60 °C+, none of these is rated for it as stated; the DepthVista_GMSL_IP65's IP65 industrial design may be of interest, but its temperature rating is not listed, so I can't verify it meets your requirement — you'd need to confirm that with the manufacturer directly.
