Setup Guide

Environmental
Operating One shock pulse (one pulse each side of the system) of 31 G for
2.6 ms in the operational orientation.
Non-operating Six consecutively executed shock pulses in the positive and
negative x, y, and z axes (one pulse on each side of the system)
of 71 G for up to 2 ms.
Six consecutively executed shock pulses in the positive and
negative x, y, and z axes (one pulse on each side of the system)
of 32 G faired square wave pulse with velocity change at 270
inches/second (686 centimeters/second).
Altitude
Operating
–16 m to 3048 m (10,000 ft).
NOTE: For altitudes above 950 m (3,117 ft), the maximum
operating temperature is derated 1°C/300 m (1 ºF/547 ft).
Storage –15.2 m to 12,000 m (–50 ft to 39,370 ft)
Airborne Contaminant Level
Class G1 as defined by ISA-S71.04-1985
Particulate Contamination
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
NOTE: Applies to data center
and non-data center
environments.
Air must be free of conductive dust, zinc whiskers, or other
conductive particles.
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.
