3.3. Ambient Conditions
The PILATUS3 R 100K-M detector is equipped with a temperature and a humidity sensor. When either sensor detects
that the operating conditions are not met, the detector will shut off. However, as the sensors may not prevent damage,
temperature and humidity should be monitored to avoid breaching the operation limits.
Information
#2
The relative humidity within the module chamber must be lower than 30 % during operation and lower than
25 % during start up (use of dry air or nitrogen advised).
The PILATUS3 R 100K-M detector is designed for indoor use only. The ambient conditions shown in table 3.7 must be
satisfied. The stated values are for the ambient conditions.
Values inside the detector, in particular due to the dry-air or nitrogen supply, are different. These are described in section 5.4
and chapter 6.

Please consider following points when storing the detector:
• Make sure the temperature and the humidity inside the transport box do not exceed the specified range (use of a
drying agent is required).
• Ensure that no condensation moisture develops if the detector is stored at low temperature.
