Chapter 2 Installation
General Requirements
ESD
ESD protection has been taken into account when designing the EM1365-LD and the engine is shipped
in ESD safe packaging. Always exercise care when handling the engine outside its package. Be sure
grounding wrist straps and properly grounded work areas are used.
Dust and Dirt
The EM1365-LD must be sufficiently enclosed to prevent dust particles from gathering on the imager,
lens and circuit board. Dust and other external contaminants will eventually degrade the engine
’s
performance.
Ambient Environment
The following environmental requirements should be met to ensure good performance of the EM1365-LD:
Operating Temperature
-20
℃
~ 60
℃
Storage Temperature
-40
℃
~ 85
℃
Humidity
5% ~ 95% (non-condensing)
Thermal Considerations
Electronic components in the EM1365-LD will generate heat during the course of their operation.
Operating the EM1365-LD in continuous mode for an extended period may cause temperatures to rise on
CIS and decoder chip. Overheating can degrade image quality and affect scanning performance. Given
that, the following precautions should be taken into consideration when integrating the EM1365-LD.
Reserve sufficient space for good air circulation in the design.
Avoid wrapping the EM1365-LD with thermal insulation materials such as rubber.
