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 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 175m 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 22 ft).
