2.3.3 TEMPERATURE LIMITS 

Operation temperature: -20°C to 60°C 
 
Room temperature: -20°C to 60°C 
 
The temperature limits given in this manual or in any applicable standard shall not be exceeded under any 

circumstances, under risk of damage to the equipment, to the installation safety, and to the people involved in the 
operation.
