The AXIS ACCS (part number 01461-001) is an outdoor pendant kit, specifically designed for the AXIS M30-PLVE series of network cameras. It serves as a weather protection housing, shielding the camera from environmental influences such as rain, sunlight, and mechanical stress. The housing is made from a special polymer that is shock-resistant, UV-resistant, and heat-resistant, ensuring a long service life even under extreme outdoor conditions. The mounting is done as hanging mounting, allowing the camera to be attached to a roof overhang or structure, without being directly exposed to the weather.

Applications
This pendant kit is designed for outdoor use, where a camera must be protected from direct sunlight, precipitation, or mechanical impacts. It is particularly suitable for installations on buildings, in industrial facilities, or at transportation infrastructure, where the camera operates outdoors for extended periods. Using the housing increases operational reliability and reduces maintenance frequency, as the camera is protected from dirt and weather influences.

Features and Equipment in Detail
The housing provides complete weather protection for the AXIS M30-PLVE series. It is designed to fully enclose the camera without impairing optical performance. The material selection, a UV- and heat-resistant polymer, ensures that the housing does not deform or become brittle even at high temperatures or under prolonged sun exposure. The shock-resistant construction also protects against mechanical damage, such as from falling objects or birds.

Technology Explained Simply
The pendant kit is not a standalone device, but a passive protective housing that is attached to the camera via a mounting opening. It is not connected to power or data cables, but serves exclusively for mechanical and climatic protection. The mounting is done via a 3,8 cm ( 1,5 inch ) NPS thread interface, which is compatible with a wide range of AXIS mounting accessories. This allows flexible installation on various surfaces, such as ceilings, poles, or railings, provided the appropriate brackets are used.

Compatibility and Accessories
The AXIS ACCS is specifically developed for the AXIS M30-PLVE series and is directly attached to the camera. It is compatible with a wide range of AXIS mounting accessories that feature a 3,8 cm ( 1,5 inch ) NPS thread interface. These include, for example, ceiling mounts T91B63, T91B51, T91B50, pole mounts T91B67 and TP3301-E, as well as parapet mounts TQ6501-E and T91D62. Wall mounts such as T91H61, T91E61, TP3004-E, and T91D61 are also compatible with the pendant kit. For longer mounting distances, extension tubes such as TP3908-E are available in various lengths (10 cm, 15 cm, 30 cm, 100 cm). Additionally, the kit can be combined with spare parts such as the BIRD Bird Control Spike 10er Pack to keep birds away from the camera.

Installation and Mounting
The installation is carried out in two steps: First, the camera is mounted at the desired location using an appropriate AXIS mounting accessory. Then, the pendant kit is attached to the camera via the 3,8 cm ( 1,5 inch ) NPS thread interface. The fastening is done by screw connection, with the exact mounting instructions following the respective mounting accessory. The hanging mounting allows for flexible positioning, and after installation of the housing, the camera is no longer directly exposed to the weather.

Operational Advantages
Using the AXIS ACCS extends the camera’s service life by protecting it from weather influences. The optical performance remains unchanged, as the housing does not contain any optical filters or shading. Compatibility with a wide range of mounting accessories enables flexible installation at various locations. The high-quality material ensures robustness, reducing maintenance frequency. The pendant kit is therefore a reliable solution for outdoor use, where a camera is intended for long-term operation.
