Warnings

Read on to learn about using IR camera properly.

Avoid damaging eyesight

Warning: Do not trigger the laser pointer in human or animal eyes.

Exposure to the laser produced by the laser pointer may damage

eyesight.

Do not disassemble

Do not attempt to disassemble or alter any part of the equipment

that is not expressly described this guide

Stop operating immediately if it is damaged

Failure to do so may result in fire, electrical shock or explosion in

coal mine environment. Immediately turn the IR camera’s power off.

Do not remove the IR camera battery or in coal mine environment.

Return the camera back to SATIR or its distributor and have it check

before reusing it.

Stop operating immediately if it emits smoke or

Warning:

It is forbidden to disassemble the camera, connect any

terminal, install and uninstall the battery, charge the battery,

short-circuit, and disassemble the battery and its charger in

coal mine environment. Fail to do so may cause terrible

disaster and SATIR is not responsible for it. Only the genuine

intrinsic safety battery packs and battery charger are allowed

to use. This camera is not design for high temperature

environment, and the operational temperature range should

not exceed -15°C to +50°C (5°F to +122°F).

noxious fumes

Failure to do so may result in fire or electrical shock. Immediately

turn the IR camera’s power off. Do not remove the IR camera battery

or in coal mine environment. Return the camera back to SATIR or its

distributor and have it check before reusing it.

Stop operating immediately if it is dropped or the

casing is damaged

Failure to do so may result in fire or electrical shock. Immediately

turn the IR camera’s power off. Do not remove the IR camera battery

or in coal mine environment. Return the camera back to SATIR or its

distributor and have it check before reusing it.

Do not use substances containing alcohol,

benzene, thinners or other flammable substances

to clean or main the IR camera

The use of these substances may lead to fire.

Remove the power cord on a regular periodic basis

and wipe away the dust and dirt that collects on

the plug, the exterior of the power outlet and the

surrounding area

In dust, humid or greasy environments, the dust that collects

around the plug over long periods of time may become saturated with

humidity and short-circuit, leading to fire.

Do not handle the power cord if your hands are

wet

Handling it with wet hands may lead to electrical shock. When

unplugging the cord, ensure that you hold the solid portion of the plug.

Pulling on the flexible portion of the cord may damage or expose the

wire and insulation, creating the potential for fires and electrical

shocks.

Do not cut, alter or place heavy items on the power

YRH Coal Mining Infrared Camera

adapter cord

Any of these actions may cause an electrical short circuit, which

may lead to fire or electrical shock.

Use only the recommended power accessories

Use of power sources not expressly recommended for this IR

camera may lead to overheating, distortion of the IR camera, fire,

electrical shock or other hazards. Fail to do so may cause terrible

disaster and SATIR is not responsible for it.

Do not place the batteries near a heat source or

expose them to direct flame or heat

Neither should you immerse them in water. Such exposure may

damage the batteries and lead to the leakage of corrosive liquids, fire,

electrical shock, explosion or serious injury.

Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat

to the batteries

This is serious risk of injury due to an explosion. Immediately flush

with water any area of the body, including the eyes and mouth, or

clothing, that comes into contact with the inner contents of a battery. If

the eyes or mouth contact these substances, immediately flush with

water and seek medical assistance. Fail to do so may cause terrible

disaster and SATIR is not responsible for it.

Avoid dropping or subjecting the batteries to

severe impacts that could damage the casings

It could lead to leakage and injury.

Do not short-circuit the battery terminals with

metallic objects, such as key holders

It could lead to overheating, burns and other injuries.

Before you discard a battery, cover the terminal

with tape or other insulators to prevent direct

YRH Coal Mining Infrared Camera

contact with other objects

Contact with the metallic components of other materials in waste

containers may lead to fire or explosions. Discard the batteries in

specialized waste facilities if available in your area.

Use only recommended batteries and accessories

Use of batteries not expressly recommended for this equipment

may cause explosions or leaks, resulting in fire, injury and damage to

the surroundings. Fail to do so may cause terrible disaster and SATIR

is not responsible for it.

Do not use the battery charger or compact power

adapter if the cable or plug is damaged, or if the

plug is not fully inserted into the power outlet

The battery charger varies according to region.

Exercise due caution when screwing on the

separately sold tele-lens, close-up lens

If you loosen, fall off and shatter, the glass shards may cause an

injury.

Prevent Malfunction

Read on to learn about preventing malfunction of IR camera

Avoid damaging the detector of the IR camera

Warning: Do not aim the IR camera directly into the sun or at other

intense heat source which could damage the detector of the IR

camera.

Avoid Condensation Related Problems

Moving the IR camera rapidly between hot and cold

temperatures may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on

its external and internal surfaces.

You can avoid this by placing the IR camera in the plastic case

(bundle) and letting it adjust to temperature changes slowly before

removing it from the case.

If Condensation Forms Inside the IR Camera

Stop using the camera immediately if you detect condensation.

Continued use may damage the IR camera. Remove the PC card,

and battery or a household power source, from the IR camera and

wait until moisture evaporates completely before resuming use.

Extended Storage

When not using the IR camera for extended periods of time,

remove the battery from the IR camera or battery charger and store

the IR camera in a safe place. Storing the IR camera for extended

periods with battery installed will run down the battery.
