N11A27;35/37 9. Notes [General notes] ● This equipment is not allowed to be used for medical purposes, detection of hazardous materials or any other operations of which performance may exert influence on human lives or safety. ● We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any incidental damages (loss of business interests, business interruption, change in data, loss of data etc.) resulting from the user’s use of this equipment or performance failure.
N11A27;36/37 [Countermeasures against heat] [Important] The equipment is subject to temperature increase caused by internal power consumption as its overall size is notably small. Place the equipment on the high thermal conductive mount to fix it. Consider to use a cooling system such as separately sold heat sink (HS500) or air-cooled fan, if the increase of temperature is a concern.
