6.6.2 Heat Transmission
Caution
Provide adequate dissipation of heat, to ensure that the temperature does
not exceed the spedified temperature (+65°C /+149°F).
The surface of the camera may be hot during operation and immediately
after use. Be careful when handling the camera and avoid contact over a
longer period.
It is very important to provide adequate dissipation of heat, to ensure that the housing
temperature does not reach or 65°C (+149°F). As there are numerous possibili
-
ties for installation, Baumer do not specifiy a specific method for proper heat dissipation,
but suggest the following principles:
operate the cameras only in mounted condition
▪
mounting in combination with forced convection may provide proper heat dissipation
▪
