![The image displays a rectangular graphic with a white background that resembles a stamped seal. Inside a rough, red border, there is bold, red text in all capital letters. The word 'CONDUCTION' is on the top line, and the word 'COOLED' is directly below it on the second line. The text and border have a distressed, grunge texture.](.datasheet-vpx3020-series-20221216/9674b3a352cb1e845876f1978babd1f588b2326faffedf54a3667db21f11ded2.jpg)
