Data Sheet
When choosing a place for mounting, please consider the following recommendations:
● Choose a place which is in accordance with the optical constraints listed below
● Mounting close to sources of heat or strong electromagnetic fields can decrease the
sensing performance
● Do not mount anything directly in front of the sensor or in a cone of approximately
+/-15° around the central optical axis of the sensor
● Within the first meter from the sensor, avoid objects with high surface reflectivity in a
cone of approximately +/-45° around the central optical axis of the sensor
● It is better to avoid having other sources of Continuous Wave or modulated IR light
close to the sensor
● Please consider that dust, dirt and condensation can affect the sensor performance
● It is not advised to add an additional cover in front of the sensor
● Drone rotor blades, or other environments with flickering (‘chopped’) ambient light in
the field of view can affect sensors’ readings
