Operating 
Conditions
The following table shows the Quantum operating conditions.
Gas Resistance 
in Conformally 
Coated Modules
The following table shows gas resistance data for conformally coated Quantum 
modules.
Storage 
Conditions
The following table shows the Quantum storage conditions.
Temperature 0 ... 60° C (32 ... 140° F), unless specified otherwise
Humidity 0 ... 95 percent RH non-condensing at 60° C
Chemical 
Interactions
Enclosures and terminal strips are made of polycarbonates. This material 
can be damaged by strong alkalis and various hydrocarbons, esters, 
halogens and ketones in combination with heat. Common products 
containing these include detergents, PVC products, petroleum products, 
pesticides, disinfectants, paint removers, and spray paints.
Altitude 2,000 meters. When the altitude exceeds this, reduce the 60°C maximum 
operating temperature by 6°C per 1000 meters of additional elevation.
Vibration 10 ... 57 Hz at 0.075 mm d.a. 57 ... 150 Hz at 1 g
Shock +/-15 g peak, 11 ms, half-sine wave
