/** Ambient temperature in the range above 28 °C (82.4 °F) / 34 °C (93.2 °F) (depending
on camera model) requires heat dissipation measures.
/*** Ambient temperature above 45 °C (113 °F) requires heat dissipation measures.
4.2 Heat Transmission
Caution
Device heats up during operation.
Skin irritation possible.
Do not touch the camera during operation.
Caution
Heat can damage the camera. Provide adequate dissipation of heat, to
ensure that the temperatures does not exceed the value (see table below).
As there are numerous possibilities for installation, Baumer recommends
no specic 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
