Expanded operating temperature
NOTE: When operating in the expanded temperature range, system performance may be impacted.
NOTE: When operating in the expanded temperature range, ambient temperature warnings may be reported on the LCD and in the System Event Log.
Continuous operation | 5°C to 40°C at 5% to 85% RH with 29°C dew point. |
| NOTE: Outside the standard operating |
| temperature (10°C to 35°C), the system can |
| operate continuously down to 5°C or as high |
| as 40°C. |
| For temperatures between 35°C and 40°C, de- |
| rate maximum allowable temperature by 1°C per |
| 175 m above 950 m (1°F per 319 ft). |
< 1% of annual operating hours | |
| point. |
| NOTE: Outside the standard operating |
| temperature (10°C to 35°C), the system can |
| operate down to |
| maximum of 1% of its annual operating hours. |
| For temperatures between 40°C and 45°C, de- |
| rate maximum allowable temperature by 1°C per |
| 125 m above 950 m (1°F per 228 ft). |
