Optional Heater Unit WV-CW5H (option)
Installing the heater unit enables the camera to operate in a low-temperature environment below
–30 °C {–22 °F}. The heater turns on automatically when the temperature inside the camera drops
below +10 °C {50 °F} and turns off when the temperature rises. A small fan inside the unit will mini-
mize condensation on the surface of the enclosure caused by changes in ambient temperature
unless temperatures change too rapidly.
