Table 14 Environmental specifications
1) All operating specifications include a data cartridge. These measurements assume that the autoloader is
installed in accordance with the instructions in the autoloader Installation and Operation manual.
2) The autoloader is in its original packaging. No data or cleaning cartridges are allowed to be in the in the box.
3) The autoloader has been unpacked but is still in its protective antistatic bag. The packaging is designed to
protect the autoloader from the condensation caused by extreme temperature variations (15° C or more).
When the autoloader is moved from a cold storage environment to a warm operating environment, it must
acclimate in its packaging for at least 12 hours before opening to prevent serious condensation damage from
occurring.
4) The autoloader has not been unpacked. The transportation period does not exceed 72 hours.
No data or cleaning cart ridges are allowed to be in the box.
5) The data cartridges. temperature and humidity must be allowed to stabilize in the specified ambient
environment for 24 hours.
Acoustics Noise Limits
The overall, averaged A-weighted sound pressure level (in decibels) for the autoloader does not
exceed the upper limits specified in the following table.
Operating mode LpA
1)
The autoloader is powered on and idle. 5.0 Bel
The autoloader is operational (the carousel or cartridge loader is moving);
the tape drive is in streaming mode. 5.8 Bel

Table 15 Acoustic noise limits
1) LpA is the average A -weighted sound pressure level over the following frequency range: 5 Hz to 12.5 KHz.
2) Represents a maximum sustained operational level.
