General safety instructions2.
Caution
Heat can damage the camera. Heat must be dissipated adequately to en-
sure that the temperatures do not exceed the values (see Heat Transmis-
sion).
As there are numerous options for installation, Baumer does not specify a
specic method for proper heat dissipation.
Caution
Device heats up during operation.
Skin irritation possible.
Do not touch the camera during operation.
Caution
Observe precautions for handling electrostatically sensitive devices!
Intended Use3.
The camera is used to capture images that can then be transferred over a USB 3.0 inter-
face to a PC.
Notice
Use the camera only for its intended purpose! For any use that is not described in the
technical documentation poses dangers and will void the warranty. The risk has to be
borne solely by the unit´s owner.

Installation6.
Caution
Observe precautions for handling electrostatically sensitive devices!
Lens mounting6.1
Notice
Ensure the sensor and lens are not contaminated with dust and airborne particles when
mounting the support or the lens to the device!
The following points are very important:
Install the camera in an environment that is as dust free as possible!▪
Keep the dust cover (bag) on the camera for as long as possible!▪
Hold the printer with the sensor downwards if the sensor is uncovered.▪
Avoid contact with any of the camera's optical surfaces!▪
