Heat Dissipation Of The Camera; The Electrolytic Capacitor During The Poe Operation - Sony XCG-C30 Technical Manual

Heat dissipation of the camera

• Use this camera in an environment that the read value
of the temperature sensor is 68°C (154.4°F) or less
during PoE mode.
• The read value of the temperature sensor becomes
high if the temperature around the camera is high.
When the read value is higher than 68°C (154.4°F),
mount a heat dissipation plate to the camera.
• If you use a larger heat dissipation plate, it is possible
to lower the read value of the temperature sensor.
The read value of the temperature sensor can be
obtained by the following formula:
Read value of temperature sensor =
Temperature around the camera + Temperature inside
the camera
The relation between the heat dissipation plate area
and the temperature inside the camera is shown in the
following graph:

material.)

The electrolytic capacitor during
the PoE operation
This unit has an electrolytic capacitor.
This electrolytic capacitor is not powered on during the
DC IN operation. It is powered on during the PoE
operation.
When the power is supplied by PoE, the electrolytic
capacitor is designed to work for more than 3 years
without any problems even if it is operated for 24 hours
under an environment at a temperature of 40°C (104°F).
Also, if the operating time is 8 hours per day, the life
expectancy is 3 times the above mentioned period.
Periodic inspections are recommended if it is used for a
long time.
◆ Contact a Sony sales representative for more
information about inspections.
