HF-VH221
Hikvision HF-VH221 is a manufacturer-described fire detection camera combining a visible 1920 × 1080 camera with thermistor sensing and high-temperature or differential-temperature alarms. Separate 2.8 mm and 4 mm lens references are listed. Confirm the intended system and actual lens; this is not evidence of a certified smoke detector or radiometric thermal imager.

Temperature alarms and visible imaging
- Device class
- Fire Detection Camera
- Temperature sensing principle
- A thermistor is named as the temperature-sensing method. This does not establish a radiometric thermal-imaging sensor or a thermal-pixel image.
- Temperature alarm modes
- High-temperature and differential-temperature alarms are listed. Confirm the required thresholds, site and system rather than assuming smoke or flame detection.
- Alarm indication
- The single indicator uses red for alarm, yellow for fault and green for normal. It is distinct from infrared illumination.
- Remote silence
- Remote alarm silencing is listed. Authorised configuration and the actual safety procedure must be confirmed.
- Image sensor
- A 1/2.9-inch progressive-scan CMOS sensor is listed for the visible camera.
- Maximum image size
- 1920 × 1080 pixels is the listed maximum image size. It is not a thermal-image resolution.
- Main stream
- 25 fps at 1920 × 1080 or 1280 × 720 is listed. Confirm the chosen codec and configuration.
- Sub-stream
- 25 fps at 704 × 576 or 640 × 480 is listed. These are separate sub-stream options.
- Minimum colour illumination
- 0.01 lux at F2.0 with AGC on is listed. This test condition is not a promise of identification in every low-light scene.
- Shutter range
- 1/25 to 1/100,000 second is listed. Exposure selection affects usable motion images.
- Image processing
- Digital WDR, BLC and 3D DNR are listed. No numerical true-WDR rating is inferred.
- Video compression
- H.264 and H.265 are listed for main and sub-streams. Confirm recorder support and the actual selected profile.
- Video bitrate
- 256 kbps to 4 Mbps is the listed bitrate range. Recording time depends on the actual configuration and storage.
Lens,lighting and network interfaces
- Lens options
- Separate 2.8 mm and 4 mm options are listed. Neither lens is selected by this base-model enquiry.
- 2.8 mm lens coverage
- For the 2.8 mm option: horizontal 105.12°, vertical 59.13° and diagonal 120.6°. Do not apply this tuple to the 4 mm lens.
- 4 mm lens coverage
- For the 4 mm option: horizontal 78.96°, vertical 43.17° and diagonal 93.31°. Do not apply this tuple to the 2.8 mm lens.
- Adjustment reference
- Horizontal 0–360°, vertical 0–70° and rotation 0–360° are listed adjustments. These do not establish a motorised pan/tilt or optical-zoom function.
- Supplement light
- Up to 30 m infrared supplement-light range is listed. It is not temperature-alarm range or a guaranteed recognition distance.
- Microphone
- One built-in microphone is listed. No audio-pickup distance or speaker is inferred.
- Network port
- One RJ45 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port is listed. Network availability and correct configuration are required.
- Interoperability references
- ONVIF profiles S and G, ISAPI and EZVIZ are named. These are manufacturer references, not proof that a particular recorder or cloud account has been connected.
Power,environment and selection
- Power alternatives
- 12 V DC or IEEE 802.3af Class 3 PoE is listed. Confirm an appropriate compliant supply; these are alternatives, not additive power sources.
- Consumption reference
- Up to 6.5 W is listed. Confirm the actual operating state and supply design.
- Operating environment
- −30 to 60 °C and humidity below 95%, non-condensing, are listed. The actual enclosure and site must be suitable.
- Ingress reference
- IP66 is the manufacturer enclosure reference. It does not authorise underwater use or guarantee every installation seal.
- Body dimension reference
- The body table lists diameter 109.9 mm and height 106.5 mm; the dimensioned drawing shows the same two measurements. Verify actual mounting clearances separately.
- Mounting-height reference
- The source lists wall mounting at 2.4–2.8 m and pendant mounting at 3.3–6 m. These are manufacturer references, not a site-specific life-safety design or installation service.
Selection notes
- Manufacturer reference for HF-VH221 only. The document lists separate 2.8 mm and 4 mm ordering options; confirm the actual lens, hardware, firmware, region and intended system. Lens options are not new aliases or proof of ISD supply.
- ISD supplies products only. Manufacturer references do not confirm stock, price, ETA, actual contents, local warranty, authorisation or publication approval. Qualified personnel must confirm the actual system and site.
- This reference is not evidence of a certified smoke/flame alarm system, medical device or radiometric thermal imager. Do not substitute it for an approved life-safety design.
