Table 1. Continuous Operation Specifications for ASHRAE A2 This table describes the operational climatic range for category A2.
Temperature	Specifications
Allowable continuous operations
Temperature range for altitudes <= 900 m (<= 2953 ft)	10–35°C (50–95°F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment
Humidity percent range (non-condensing at all times)	8% RH with -12°C minimum dew point to 80% RH with 21°C (69.8°F) maximum dew point
Operational altitude de-rating	Maximum temperature is reduced by 1°C/300 m (1.8°F/984 Ft) above 900 m (2953 Ft)

Table 2. Continuous Operation Specifications for ASHRAE A3 This table describes the operational climatic range for category A3.
Temperature	Specifications
Allowable continuous operations
Temperature range for altitudes <= 900 m (<= 2953 ft)	5–40°C (41–104°F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment
Humidity percent range (non-condensing at all times)	8% RH with -12°C minimum dew point to 85% RH with 24°C (75.2°F) maximum dew point
Operational altitude de-rating	Maximum temperature is reduced by 1°C/175 m (1.8°F/574 Ft) above 900 m (2953 Ft)

Table 3. Continuous Operation Specifications for ASHRAE A4 This table describes the operational climatic range for category A4.
Temperature	Specifications

Temperature range for altitudes <= 900 m (<= 2953 ft)	5–45°C (41–113°F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment
Humidity percent range (non-condensing at all times)	8% RH with -12°C minimum dew point to 90% RH with 24°C (75.2°F) maximum dew point
Operational altitude de-rating	Maximum temperature is reduced by 1°C/125 m (1.8°F/410 Ft) above 900 m (2953 Ft)

Table 4. Common Environmental Specifications for ASHRAE A2, A3, A4 This table describes the shared requirements across all categories.
Temperature	Specifications
Allowable continuous operations
Maximum temperature gradient (applies to both operation and non-operation)	20°C in an hour* (36°F in an hour) and 5°C in 15 minutes (9°F in 15 minutes), 5°C in an hour* (9°F in an hour) for tape hardware NOTE:* - Per ASHRAE thermal guidelines for tape hardware, these are not instantaneous rates of temperature change.

Table 5. Maximum vibration specificationsThe maximum vibration specification of an operational system is 0.21 Grms at 5 Hz to 500 Hz (all operation orientations).The maximum vibration specification of a nonoperational system is 1.88 Grms at 10 Hz to 500 Hz for 15 minutes (all six sides tested).
Maximum vibration	Specifications
Operating	0.21 G_rms at 5 Hz to 500 Hz (all operation orientations)
Storage	1.88 G_rms at 10 Hz to 500 Hz for 15 minutes (all six sides tested)

Table 6. Maximum shock pulse specificationsThe maximum shock specification of an operational system is six consecutively executed shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axis of 40 G for up to 2.3 ms. The maximum shock specification of a nonoperational system is six consecutively executed shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axis (one pulse on each side of the system) of 71 G for up to 2 ms.
Maximum shock pulse	Specifications
Operating	Six consecutively executed shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axis of 6 G for up to 11 ms.
Storage	Six consecutively executed shock pulses in the positive and negative x, y, and z axis (one pulse on each side of the system) of 71 G for up to 2 ms.
