Directive Characteristics (Ta=25°C)

Precaution for Use

1.

Cautions

•

This device is a UV LED, which radiates intense UV light during operation.

•

DO NOT look directly into the UV light or look through the optical system. To prevent inadequate

exposure of UV radiation, wearing UV protective glasses is recommended

2.

Static Electricity

•

The LEDs are very sensitive to Static Electricity and surge voltage. So it is recommended that a wrist

band or an anti-electrostatic glove be used when handling the LEDs.

•

All devices, equipment and machinery must be grounded properly. It is recommended that precautions

should be taken against surge voltage to the equipment that mounts the LEDs.

3.

Heat Generation

•

Thermal design of the end product is of paramount importance. Please consider the heat generation of

the LED when making the system design. The coefficient of temperature increase per input electric

power is affected by the thermal resistance of the circuit board and density of LED placement on the

board, as well as other components. It is necessary to avoid intense heat generation and operate

within the maximum ratings given in the specification.

•

The operating current should be considered taking into account the environmental temperature and

the capacity of the cooling solution
