Important Operating Tips

>The hot side must be attached to a heatsink at all times when powered. Without proper heat removal, the module will overheat and may be permanently damaged[citation:5].

>Do not exceed Imax or Vmax ratings[citation:5].

>For moisture-sensitive applications, apply silicone sealing around the edges[citation:7].
