How to use the Manual
Remark:
The LDP-C/CW described in this manual are baseplate cooled devices.
Improper cooling may cause an internal overtemperature shutdown. The two fans in one side
of the unit prevent local thermal hot spots inside the unit. They can not compensate a
baseplate cooling. The air inside an enclosure within an OEM application is usually enough to
yield enough air flow.
Baseplate cooling:
Depending on the final application and operation regime, this unit may
stay non-cooled or must be assembled onto a heat sink.
No general rule value can be given. It depends on the (electrical) power used by your diode –
and thus the power dissipation (about 5% of this) in the driver.
You may use a passively or an actively air/water cooled device.
Housing: All units are delivered with housing. Changes are possible the units can be delivered
without housing upon request.
Before powering on your unit, read this manual thoroughly and make sure your understood
everything.
Please pay attention to all safety warnings.
