Approved operating conditions
1.8.1.1
Ambiance
The allowed ambient temperature range for operation is 0 °C (32 °F) to 50 °C (122 °F). During storage or transport, the allowed
range extends to -20 °C (-4 °F) to 70 °C (158 °F). In case water condensation occurred due to transport, the device must be
acclimatized prior to operation for at least 2 hours, ideally in a place with good air circulation.
The device is intended to be operation in dry rooms. It must not be exposed or operated to extreme dust, high air humidity,
danger of explosion and aggressive chemicals polluting the air. The operating position isn’t arbitrary (see
),but in any case it requires a sufficient air circulation. The device is allowed to be operated in altitude up to 2000
m (approx. 6,560 ft) above sea level. Technical specifications (here: ratings), when given with tolerance, are valid for a unit
warmed up for at least 30 minutes and for an ambient temperature of 23 °C (73 °F). Specifications without tolerance are
typical values from an average device.
1.8.1.2
Cooling
Power dissipated inside the device heats up air circulating through the device. A fan at the end of an air flow channel,in which
a cooling block is placed, pulls the air through the device. Entry is on the front, exhaust at the back. Depending on the internal
temperature, the fan speed is automatically regulated up or down, whereas a certain minimum speed is maintained because
some internal components even heat up when the device is idle.
Dust in the air can obstruct the air flow with time, thus it’s important to keep the air flow unimpeded at least outside of the device
be leaving sufficient room behind it. Since it’s usually installed inside cabinets, the cabinet doors are required to be meshed.
At the same time, the ambient temperature should be kept at low levels, perhaps by external means such as an air condition.
Should the device heat up internally and the cooling block temperature exceed 80 °C (160 °F), the device will protect itself
from overheating by automatically switching off the power stage. It could then only continue to operate and switch the power
stage on again after cooling down for some time.
