Chapter 3: Thermal Protection Covers

Thermal Protection Covers Overview

FARO laser scanners are normally able to operate at ambient temperatures from 5 °C to 40 °C (4 °F to
104 °F). The thermal protection covers make it possible to operate the scanner in temperatures between
40 °C and 55 °C (104 °F to 131 °F) and in strong direct sunlight. The covers provide:

•

shielding against IR radiation

•

high-performance thermal insulation to prevent excess heat intrusion

•

latent-heat absorbers to remove excess heat from the device
