Heat Dissipation
The best way to dissipate heat from the Gold Bell is to mount it so that its heat-sink faces up. For
best results leave approximately 10 mm of space between the Gold Bell's heat-sink and any other
assembly.

Thermal Data
•
Heat dissipation
capability (θ): Approximately 10 °C/W.
•
Thermal time constant: Approximately 240 seconds (thermal time constant means that the Bell
will reach two-thirds of its final temperature after 4 minutes.)
•
Shut-off temperature: 86 °C – 88 °C (measured on the heat-sink).
