micro**FLUX** is designed to be able to operate without airflow through natural convective cooling in many applications. For best results when convective cooling, ensure the unit is mounted with the heatsink side facing directly upwards.

Performance can be further improved with a small amount of airflow over the unit. For further details see the thermal performance section.
