Axis Edge Vault safeguards device
There are a number of regulations for explosion protection certification in different parts of the world. Always ensure that the product's certification matches that of your installation's requirements.
Certified for use in Zone and Division 1 hazardous areas, this robust, explosion-protected camera comes with smoke alert analytics. It also includes and supports deep-learning based analytics that run on the edge, such as hardhat detection.
Protect people and improve operations
AXIS XFQ1656 offers many benefits for health and safety and operational efficiency. For instance, pre-installed smoke-alert analytics monitor for signs of smoke or fire in combustible environments. AXIS Object Analytics can detect people in restricted areas, and it supports compliance with safety regulations through hardhat detection. In addition, it can easily be integrated with production monitoring and industrial control systems to provide valuable image-based data, analyzed by deep learning algorithms. This can help improve your scene understanding and offers valuable information about processes. For example, it can be used to improve processes and reduce downtime.
Great image quality and analytic capabilities
This camera offers impressive performance with 4 MP at up to 60 fps. With a 1/1.8” sensor and adjustable iris, it’s ideal in dark environments and changing light conditions. It’s also built on the latest Axis system-on-chip (SoC), which includes a deep learning processing unit. That means you can analyze more data than ever before—on the edge. AXIS XFQ1656 also delivers valuable metadata that can be analyzed further, for example to detect trends. Furthermore, with support for ACAP version 4, you can add tailor-made applications based on deep learning on the edge available from Axis and our partners.
Robust, secure, and easy to install
AXIS XFQ1656 is certified worldwide for use in hazardous locations (Class I/II/III Div 1, Zone 1,21, IIC, IIIC). With a stainless steel housing, it’s IP66/67/68-rated for protection against water and dust. And it can withstand temperatures between -40 °C to 60 °C (-40 °F to 140 °F). It includes Axis Edge Vault, a hardware-based cybersecurity platform that guarantees the device’s integrity and protects it from unauthorized access. Furthermore, this robust camera offers flexible installation anywhere in the world with multiple power and network connectivity options. It also supports simple image configuration with remote zoom and remote focus.

Axis explosion-protected cameras are certified for installation in environments with both gas and dust. Certifications may differ according to country. See all certifications for a product on its datasheet.
There are three explosion-protection classification schemes in the world. A product can be certified to either one or even all three different schemes.
For North America, the Class Division or the Class Zone scheme can be used. A number of NRTLs (National Recognized Test Laboratories), accredited by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration), can issue certificates under their own name upon successful examination and testing according to relevant UL, FM or CSA standards. Some of these are UL, MET, FM and CSA; each of these will give access to the North American market.
The rest of the world uses the IEC Zone system. A National Certifying Body (NCB) from any participating country in the IEC CB Scheme will issue a certificate upon successful examination and testing according to the IEC 60079 standards, giving market access to all participating countries, with a few exceptions (typically installation instructions in the local language, specific marking requirements etc). Here, the name of the certifying body is irrelevant, it’s the name of the legal framework that gives the certification its name. These include:
ATEX
Mandatory certification for installations within EU, but also accepted in other parts of the world. Products tested against EN 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations according to ATEX Equipment Directive 2014/34/EU.
IECEx
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations. The international IEC 60079 standard is widely accepted in Asia-Pacific, Africa and Australia.
PESO
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations according to Indian regulations.
IA
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations in South Africa.
INMETRO
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations in Brazil.
EAC
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations in the Customs Union of Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan shall bear the EAC (EuroAsian Conformity) mark.
KCs
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations in South Korea.
JPEx
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in hazardous locations in Japan.
OSHA(TW)
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in Taiwan.
CCC
Products tested against IEC 60079 and certified for use in China.
