Heat dissipation
Due to the small packaging and high speed of Mako cameras, take care to ensure
that the housing temperature of the camera does not exceed 45 °C. The follow-
ing are general guidelines for heat dissipation:
•
Mount the camera on a heat sink such as a metal bracket.
•
Lenses, when attached to a camera, act as a heat-sink and help reduce
housing temperature.
•
Ensure sufficient air flow. Use a fan if necessary.
