1 General Information
1.1 Description
Thank you for choosing the Outdoor protective housing.
The outdoor protective housing is an ideal complement for the TIM camera, the thermoMETER CSL, the
thermoMETER CTL and the USB server for applications with additional influences of different kinds. It
protects the devices among things like dirt, dust and moisture. The outdoor protective housing can be used
for any TIM camera (lenses up to 90 ° FOV). The integrated heating and the blower result in an extended
operating temperature.
Avoid abrupt changes of the ambient temperature.
Avoid mechanical violence –this may destroy the system (expiry of warranty).
If you have any problems or questions, please contact our service department.
Read the manual carefully before the initial start-up. The producer reserves the right to change
the herein described specifications in case of technical advance of the product.
