Temperature Requirements
To ensure continued safe and reliable operation of the equipment, place the
system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment.
The Compaq Maximum Recommended Ambient Operating Temperature
(TMRA) for most server products is 35°C (95°F). Therefore, do not allow the
temperature in the room where the rack is located to exceed 35°C (95°F).
The operating temperature inside the system will always be higher than the
room temperature and will depend on the configuration of equipment in
your system.
The maximum internal system temperature for your configuration should not
exceed the values in the following table.

CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment when installing
third-party options:
■
Ensure that the option equipment does not impede airflow to the
rack-mountable system or increase the internal rack temperature beyond
the Compaq specified maximum rating.
■
Ensure that the Manufacturer’s Maximum Recommended Ambient
Operating Temperature of the option equipment is not exceeded when
installed in the rack.
