Fresh Air: temperature, humidity, altitude de-rating
When operating in the expanded temperature range, system performance may be impacted,
and ambient temperature warnings may be reported on the LCD and in the System Event Log.
≤ 10% of annual operating hours: 5°C to 10°C and 35°C to 40°C (with no direct sunlight on
the equipment) at 5% to 85% relative humidity with 26°C dew point (maximum wet bulb
temperature). 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 (95°F to 104°F), de-rate maximum allowable dry bulb
temperature by 1°C per 175m above 950m (1°F per 319 ft above 3117 ft).
≤ 1% of annual operating hours: –5°C to 5°C and 40°C to 45°C (with no direct sunlight on
the equipment) at 5% to 90% relative humidity with 26°C dew point (maximum wet bulb
temperature). 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 (104°F to 113°F), de-rate maximum allowable dry bulb
temperature by 1°C per 125m above 950m (1°F per 228 ft above 3117 ft).
Expanded operation restrictions:

Maximum altitude for the operating temperature must be 3050m (10,000ft)
-40° to 65°C (-40° to 149°F) with a maximum temperature gradation of 20°C per hour
See Fresh Air for temperature information
-40° to 65°C (-40° to 149°F) with a maximum temperature gradation of 20°C per hour
See Fresh Air for humidity information
5% to 95% at a maximum wet bulb temperature of 33°C (91°F); atmosphere must be
condensing at all times
0.26 Grms at 5–350Hz for 5 minutes in operational orientations
1.54 Grms at 10–250Hz for 10 minutes in all orientations
Half sine shock in all operational orientations of 31 G 5% with a pulse duration of 2.6ms 10%
Half sine shock on all six sides of 71G 5% with a pulse duration of 2ms 10% Square wave shock
on all six sides of 27G with velocity change @ 235 in/sec or greater
-16 to 3048m (-50 to 10,000ft) Note: For altitudes above 2950 feet, the maximum operating
temperature is de-rated 1°F/550ft
-16 to 10,600m (-50 to 35,000ft)
