Hey lilliput,
The unit was put in the foam enclosure only to act as a worst case heat transfer scenario so we could see how hot it might get. In practice it will be used within the metal shielding that will have about 45mm of depth behind it.
Hey Lilliput,
We ran some worst case scenario tests where the unit ran for 24 hours within a foam enclosure and saw temperatures up in the mid to high 50s Celsius. The operating range for this device is only up to 40C and when running within ambient conditions and no enclosure regularly posts...
