Environment Environment Environment Environment System Inlet Temperature System Inlet Temperature System Inlet Temperature System Inlet Temperature Operating 10° to 35°C (50° to 95°F) at sea level with an
altitude derating of 1.0°C per every 305m (1.8°F
per every 1000ft) above sea level to a maximum
of 3050m (10,000ft), no direct sustained
sunlight. Maximum rate of change is 10°C/Hr
(18°F/Hr ). The upper limit may be limited by the
type and number of options installed.
System performance may be reduced if operating
with a fan fault or above 30°C (86°F).
Non-operating -30° to 60°C (-22° to 140°F). Maximum rate of
change is 20°C/Hr (36°F/Hr).
