TOA / Tamron 13FG08IR-SQ 1/3-Inch IR Mono-Focal Surveillance Lens (8mm) Official Optoelectronic Data Sheet & Camera Integration Framework
The TOA / Tamron 13FG08IR-SQ is a high-resolution, narrow-angle telephoto mono-focal (fixed) lens specifically engineered for 1/3-inch and 1/4-inch image sensors on professional CS-mount security and industrial box cameras. It features an advanced near-infrared (IR) optical system that aligns visible and infrared light waves to the exact same focal plane, eliminating the blurry focus shift typical of standard lenses during night transitions. Boasting an ultra-bright F1.2 maximum aperture and a responsive DC Auto Iris loop, it delivers crisp, targeted close-ups for license plate capture, long corridors, and entry checkpoints across Pakistan.
The base optomechanical chassis matches precise international optical tolerances, but SKYRS provisions and delivers the 13FG08IR-SQ platform in specialized system-matched configurations tailored for specific regional operating conditions:
13FG08IR-SQ-STD (Standalone Assembly): The standard factory 8mm IR-corrected lens with a pre-terminated 4-pin square direct-drive connection layout, optimized for stable indoor environments like banks, corridors, and processing plants.
13FG08IR-SQ-ENV (Protected Perimeter Profile): Outfitted with specialized industrial locking screws and internal stabilization rings supplied directly by SKYRS. This profile guarantees that high-vibration outdoor environments—such as highway toll lanes, high-wind utility poles, or perimeter fences across Pakistan—do not knock the narrow 8mm focus path out of alignment.
Verify that the hosting camera body uses a native CS-mount physical socket interface. If adapting to a traditional C-mount body, a mandatory 5mm spacer adapter ring must be inserted first.
Always ensure the box camera’s power supply is disconnected before plugging in or unplugging the electronic DC Auto Iris terminal block.
Mount Threading: Remove the rear protective cap from the 13FG08IR-SQ and the box camera sensor dust shield. Carefully thread the lens clockwise into the camera CS-mount socket until it sits completely flush. Do not overtighten.
Iris Cable Connection: Insert the attached 4-pin square auto-iris plug firmly into the designated DC IRIS control slot on the side or backplane of the camera chassis.
Target Alignment: Power on the camera system and output the live feed to a high-definition service monitor. Loosen the manual focus thumbscrew lock located on the side of the lens housing.
Precision Focus Lock: Because narrow 8mm lenses have a shallower depth of field, precision calibration is vital. Force the camera iris to open wide (either by placing a neutral density filter over the front glass or adjusting the camera’s shutter speed settings to simulate low light). Rotate the manual focus ring until target details at your specific distance zone are completely sharp, then tighten the thumbscrew firmly.
Because the 13FG08IR-SQ relies on passive, high-fidelity optical glass combined with an analog direct-drive iris loop, configuration is finalized inside the host camera’s digital signal processing (DSP) or web controller dashboard.
Lens Drive Selection: Access the camera web management menu. Toggle the lens configuration type from “Manual/Electronic Shutter” to DC Iris to hand over exposure control to the lens motor loop.
Day and Night Shifting Setup: Because the 13FG08IR-SQ features native broad-spectrum infrared correction, the physical focal point remains identical under daylight (visible spectrum) and nighttime IR illumination. You can safely configure your camera’s mechanical IR-Cut filter to switch automatically based on lux levels without needing to program complex software focus-compensation offsets inside your surveillance software platform.
