TM-4200GE Hardware

8.2 Camera Setup

8.2.1Heat Dissipation

The TM-4200GE is a compact 2k by 2k camera. Since all the electronics have been packed in a compact package, the outer case of the camera can become hot due to heat dissipation. For optimal performance, JAI Inc. recommends using a cooling fan to set up a positive air flow around the camera and following the precautions below.

Mount the camera on a large heat sink (camera bracket) made out of heat-conductive material like aluminum.

Make sure the flow of heat from the camera case to the bracket is not blocked by a non-conductive material like plastic.

Make sure the camera has enough open space around it to facilitate the free flow of air.

Please contact JAI Inc. at (800) 445-5444 or send an E-mail to imaging@jai.com if you have any questions.
