Heat Dissipation

You must provide sufficient heat dissipation to maintain the temperature of the camera housing at
50 °C or less. Since each installation is unique, Basler does not supply a strictly required technique
for proper heat dissipation. Instead, we provide the following general guidelines:
In all cases, you should monitor the temperature of the camera housing and make sure that the
temperature does not exceed 50 °C. Keep in mind that the camera will gradually become
warmer during the first hour of operation. After one hour, the housing temperature should
stabilize and no longer increase.
If your camera is mounted on a substantial metal component in your system, this may provide
sufficient heat dissipation.
The use of a fan to provide air flow over the camera is an extremely efficient method of heat
dissipation. The use of a fan provides the best heat dissipation.
