Dell 0G8DW - Particulate and Gaseous Contamination Specifications

NOTE: *165 W and 150 W FO includes Intel Xeon Gold 6146 and 6144 processors.
Ambient temperature limitations
The following table lists congurations that require ambient temperature less than 35°C.
NOTE: The ambient temperature limit must be adhered to ensure proper cooling and to avoid excess processor throttling, which
may impact system performance.

Particulate and gaseous contamination specications
The following table denes the limitations that help avoid any equipment damage or failure from particulate and gaseous contamination. If
the levels of particulate or gaseous pollution exceed the specied limitations and result in equipment damage or failure, you may need to
rectify the environmental conditions. Remediation of environmental conditions is the responsibility of the customer.

Air ltration Data center air ltration as dened by ISO Class 8 per ISO 14644-1 with a
95% upper condence limit.
NOTE: This condition applies to data center environments only. Air
ltration requirements do not apply to IT equipment designed to be
used outside a data center, in environments such as an oce or
factory oor.
NOTE: Air entering the data center must have the MERV11 or
MERV13 ltration.
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.
