Table 1 Hardware acclimation times (systems and components) (continued)
If the last 24 hours of the
TRANSIT/STORAGE
environment was this:
…and the OPERATING
environment is this:
…then let the system or
component acclimate in
the new environment
this many hours:
Humid
≥
60% RH
<86°F (30°C)
16 hours
Unknown
<86°F (30°C)
16 hours
NOTICE
l
If there are signs of condensation after the recommended acclimation time has
passed, allow an additional eight (8) hours to stabilize.
l
Systems and components must not experience changes in temperature and humidity
that are likely to cause condensation to form on or in that system or component. Do
not exceed the shipping and storage temperature gradient of 45°F/hr (25°C/hr).
l
Do NOT apply power to the system for at least the number of hours specified in
. If the last 24 hours of the transit/storage environment is unknown, then
you must allow the system or component 16 hours to stabilize in the new
environment.
Removing, installing, or storing replaceable units
Use the following precautions when removing, handling, or storing replaceable units:
CAUTION
Some replaceable units have the majority of their weight in the rear of the component.
Ensure that the back end of the replaceable unit is supported while installing or
removing it. Dropping a replaceable unit could result in personal injury or damage to the
equipment.
NOTICE
l
For a module that must be installed into a slot in an enclosure, examine the rear
connectors on the module for any damage before attempting its installation.
l
A sudden jar, drop, or even a moderate vibration can permanently damage some
sensitive replaceable units.
l
Do not remove a faulted replaceable unit until you have the replacement available.
l
When handling replaceable units, avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) by wearing ESD
anti-static gloves or an ESD wristband with a strap. For additional information, see:
Avoiding electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage on page 2
l
Handle a replaceable unit gently. A sudden jar, drop, or vibration can permanently
damage some replaceable units.
l
Avoid touching any exposed electronic components and circuits on the replaceable
unit.
l
Never use excessive force to remove or install a replaceable unit. Take time to read
the instructions carefully.
