10°C to 35°C at 10% to 80% relative humidity (RH), with 26°C max dew point. De-rate
maximum allowable dry bulb temperature at 1 °C per 300m above 900 m (1 °F per
550 ft). When using the PowerEdge R720 with internal GPU card(s), the continuous
operation range is 10°C to 30°C at 10% to 80% RH, with 26 °C max dew point.
When operating in the expanded temperature range, system performance may be
impacted. When operating in the expanded temperature range, ambient temperature
warnings may be reported on the LCD (R720 only) and in the System Event Log.
< 10% of annual operating hours: 5 °C to 40 °C at 5% to 85% RH with 26 °C dew
point. Outside the standard operating temperature (10°C to 35°C), the system can
operate down to 5°C or up to 40°C for a maximum of 10% of its annual operating
hours. For temperatures between 35°C and 40°C, de-rate maximum allowable dry
bulb temperature by 1°C per 175 m above 950m (1°F per 319 ft).
< 1% of annual operating hours: –5°C to 45°C at 5% to 90% RH with 26°C dew point.
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 dry bulb
temperature by 1°C per 125m above 950m (1°F per 228ft).
