Environmental

Temperature Ranges (for altitude less than 950 m or 3117 ft)

Humidity Percentage Range

10 °C to 35 °C (50 °F to 95 °F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment.

10% to 80% Relative Humidity (RH) with 26 °C (78.8 °F) maximum dew point.

Relative Humidity

 

Storage

5% to 95% RH with 33 °C (91 °F) maximum dew point.

 

Atmosphere must be non-condensing at all times.

Maximum Vibration

 

Operating

0.26 Grms at 5 Hz to 350 Hz (all operation orientations).

Storage

1.88 Grms at 10 Hz to 500 Hz for 15 min (all six sides

 

tested).

Maximum Shock

 

Operating

One shock pulse in the positive z axis (one pulse on each

 

side of the system) of 31 G for 2.6 ms in the operational

 

orientation.

Storage

Maximum Altitude

Operating

Storage

Operating Altitude De-rating

Up to 35 °C (95 °F)

35 °C to 40 °C (95 °F to 104 °F)

40 °C to 45 °C (104 °F to 113 °F)

Particulate Contamination

Four consecutively executed shock pulses in the positive and negative y and z axes (one pulse on each side of the system) of 71 G for up to 2 ms.

–15.2 m to 3048 m (–50 to 10,000 ft). 12,000 m (39,370 ft).

Maximum temperature is reduced by 1 °C/300 m (1 °F/547 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft).

Maximum temperature is reduced by 1 °C/175 m (1 °F/319 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft).

Maximum temperature is reduced by 1 °C/125 m (1 °F/228 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft).

NOTE: This section defines the limits to help avoid IT equipment damage and/or failure from particulates and gaseous contamination. If it is determined that levels of particulates or gaseous pollution are beyond the limits specified below and are the reason for the damage and/or failures to your equipment, it may be necessary for you to re-mediate the environmental conditions that are causing the damage and/or failures. Re-mediation of environmental conditions will be the responsibility of the customer.

Air Filtration

NOTE: Applies to data center environments only. Air filtration requirements do not apply to IT equipment designed to be used outside a data center, in environments such as an office or factory floor.

Data center air filtration as defined by ISO Class 8 per ISO 14644-1 with a 95% upper confidence limit.

NOTE: Air entering the data center must have MERV11 or MERV13 filtration.

Conductive Dust

Air must be free of conductive dust, zinc whiskers, or

 

other conductive particles.
