Optional Heater Unit WV-CW5H (option)

Installing the heater unit enables the camera to operate in a low-temperature environment below –30 °C {–22 °F}. The heater turns on automatically when the temperature inside the camera drops below +10 °C {50 °F} and turns off when the temperature rises. A small fan inside the unit will mini- mize condensation on the surface of the enclosure caused by changes in ambient temperature unless temperatures change too rapidly.

Important:

When using 12 V DC power supply, the optional heater unit is unavailable.

Turning the heater on and off may disturb the camera images.

The power supply of the camera shall be turned off when mounting or dismounting the heater.

When servicing, pay attention to high temperature on the surface of the heater unit. Disconnect the harness and wait until the heater unit cools.

When the camera is installed and operated in low temperatures below –10 °C {14 °F}, normal images may not be obtained immediately after startup. In such a case, wait approxilately 60 minutes or more.
