Environmental Considerations for 4mm Data Cartridges
Information in this section describes operating and storage conditions including
temperature, relative humidity, and maximum wet bulb data.
Attention: The manufacturer has specified a set of temperature and humidity ranges
in which the 4mm data cartridge can operate with ease. Only regular cleaning
procedures, as described in “Head Cleaning” on page 6-1 are required when
operating the cartridge within this range. The risk of possible data loss is increased if
4mm tape cartridges are operated, stored, or shipped outside the temperature or
humidity ranges shown in the following table.
Before using a cartridge, always let it adjust (acclimate) to the operating
environment. Do this by placing the cartridge with its container in the operating
environment for as long as it has been away from this environment or for 24 hours,
whichever is less.
Acclimation is necessary for any data cartridge that has been exposed to a different
humidity environment or a temperature change of 11°C or 20°F or more.
