Table 16. Particulate contamination specifications (continued) Particulate contamination Specifications Conductive dust Air must be free of conductive dust, zinc whiskers, or other conductive particles. NOTE: This condition applies to data center and non-data center environments. Corrosive dust • Air must be free of corrosive dust. • Residual dust present in the air must have a deliquescent point less than 60% relative humidity. NOTE: This condition applies to data center and non-data center environments. Table 17. Gaseous contamination specifications Gaseous contamination Specifications Copper coupon corrosion rate

Table 16. Particulate contamination specifications (continued)
Particulate contamination
Specifications
Conductive dust
Air must be free of conductive dust, zinc whiskers, or other conductive
particles.
NOTE:
This condition applies to data center and non-data center
environments.
Corrosive dust
Air must be free of corrosive dust.
Residual dust present in the air must have a deliquescent point less than
60% relative humidity.
NOTE:
This condition applies to data center and non-data center
environments.
Table 17. Gaseous contamination specifications
Gaseous contamination
Specifications
Copper coupon corrosion rate
<300 Å/month per Class G1 as defined by ANSI/ISA71.04-1985.
Silver coupon corrosion rate
<200 Å/month as defined by AHSRAE TC9.9.
NOTE:
Maximum corrosive contaminant levels measured at ≤50% relative humidity.
Standard operating temperature
Table 18. Standard operating temperature specifications
Standard operating temperature
Specifications
Continuous operation (for altitude less than 950 m or 3117
ft)
10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment.
Humidity percentage range
10% to 80% Relative Humidity with 26°C (78.8°F) maximum dew point.
Expanded operating temperature
Table 19. Expanded operating temperature specifications
Expanded operating temperature
Specifications
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 in temperatures as
low as 5°C and as high as 40°C.
For temperatures between 35°C and 40°C, de-rate maximum allowable dry
bulb temperature by 1°C per 175 m above 950 m (1°F per 319 ft).
Less than or equal to 1% of annual operating hours
–5°C to 45°C at 5% to 90% RH with 29°C dew point.
NOTE:
Outside the standard operating temperature (10°C to
35°C), the system can operate down to –5°C or up to 45°C for a
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).
NOTE:
When operating in the expanded temperature range, system performance may be impacted.
NOTE:
When operating in the expanded temperature range, ambient temperature warnings maybe reported in the
System Event Log.
