Environmental specifications

NOTE: For additional information about environmental measurements for specific system configurations, see Dell.com/environmental_datasheets.

Table 1. Temperature specifications When the system is in continuous operation (for altitude less than 950 m or 3117 ft), the temperature specification ranges from 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment. When the system is not in operation, the temperature specification is –40°C to 65°C (–40°F to 149°F). The Maximum temperature gradient for both operation and nonoperational systems is 20°C/h (36°F/h). For information about fresh air, view the Expanded Operating Temperature section.
Temperature	Specifications
Storage	–40°C to 65°C (–40°F to 149°F)
Continuous operation (for altitude less than 950 m or 3117 ft)	10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment.
Fresh air	For information about fresh air, see Expanded Operating Temperature section.
Maximum temperature gradient (operating and storage)	20°C/h (36°F/h)

Table 2. Relative humidity specificationsFor a nonoperational system, the ambient relative humidity ranges from 5% to 95% with 33°C (91°F) maximum dew point. Atmosphere must be noncondensing always. For an operational system, the ambient relative humidity ranges from 10% to 80% with 29°C (84.2°F) maximum dew point.
Relative humidity	Specifications
Storage	5% to 95% RH with 33°C (91°F) maximum dew point. Atmosphere must be noncondensing always.
Operating	10% to 80% Relative Humidity with 29°C (84.2°F) maximum dew point.

Table 3. Maximum vibration specificationsThe maximum vibration specification of an operational system is 0.26 Grms at 5 Hz to 350 Hz (all operation orientations).The maximum vibration specification of a nonoperational system is 1.88 Grms at 10 Hz to 500 Hz for 15 min (all six sides tested).
Maximum vibration	Specifications
Operating	0.26 Grms at 5 Hz to 350 Hz (all operation orientations).
Storage	1.88 Grms at 10 Hz to 500 Hz for 15 min (all six sides tested).

Table 4. Maximum shock specificationsThe maximum shock specification of an operational system is six consecutively run shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axes of 40 G for up to 2.3 ms. The maximum shock specification of a nonoperational system is six consecutively run shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axes (one pulse on each side of the system) of 71 G for up to 2 ms.
Maximum shock	Specifications
Operating	Six consecutively run shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axes of 40 G for up to 2.3 ms.
Storage	Six consecutively run shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axes (one pulse on each side of the system) of 71 G for up to 2 ms.

Table 5. Maximum altitude specificationsThe maximum altitude of an operational system is 3048 m (10,000 ft). The maximum altitude of a nonoperational system is 12,000 m (39,370 ft).
Maximum altitude	Specifications
Operating	3048 m (10,000 ft).
Storage	12,000 m (39,370 ft).

Table 6. Operating temperature derating specificationsIf the operating temperature of a system is up to 35 °C (95 °F), the maximum temperature is reduced by 1 °C/300 m (1 °F/547 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft). If the operating temperature of a system ranges from 35 °C to 40 °C (95 °F to 104 °F), the maximum temperature is reduced by 1 °C/175 m (1 °F/319 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft). If the operating temperature of a system ranges from 40 °C to 45 °C (104 °F to 113 °F), the maximum temperature is reduced by 1 °C/125 m (1 °F/228 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft).
Temperature	Specifications
Up to 35 °C (95 °F)	Maximum temperature is reduced by 1°C/300 m (1°F/547 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft).
35 °C to 40 °C (95 °F to 104 °F)	Maximum temperature is reduced by 1°C/175 m (1°F/319 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft).
40 °C to 45 °C (104 °F to 113 °F)	Maximum temperature is reduced by 1°C/125 m (1°F/228 ft) above 950 m (3,117 ft).
