Caution

Device heats up during operation.
Skin irritation possible.
Do not touch the camera during operation.

Caution

Heat can damage the camera. Provide adequate dissipation of heat, to en-

sure that the temperatures does not exceed

the values in the table below.

As there are num erous possibilities for installation, Baumer recommends

no specific method for proper heat dissipation

, but suggest the following

principles:

▪

operate the cameras only in mounted condition

▪

mounting in combination with forced convection may provide proper heat

dissipation
