Environmental Specifications
Note
The HP SureStore E Disk Array FC60 has been tested for proper operation in
supported Hewlett-Packard cabinets. If the disk array is installed in an untested
rack configuration, care must be taken to ensure that all necessary
environmental requirements are met. This includes power, airflow,
temperature, and humidity. Failure to meet the required operating
specifications may result in product failure.
Operating Environment
For continuous, trouble-free operation, the high availability disk array should not be
operated at its maximum environmental limits for extended periods of time. The
recommended operating range provides a less stressful operating environment. Operating
within the recommended operating range ensures maximum reliability for the disk array.
The following specifications were type-tested under controlled conditions. Hewlett-
Packard maintains an active program of auditing production products to ensure these
specifications remain true when products are again tested under the same conditions. The
limits of these specifications do not represent the optimum for long, trouble-free operation
and are specifically not recommended for maximum customer satisfaction. The
recommended conditions are stated separately where appropriate.
• Operating temperature: 5º C to 40º C (41º F to 104º F)
Recommended:
20º C to 25.5º C (68º F to 78º F)
• Maximum gradient: 20º C per hour (36º F per hour)
• Relative humidity: 10% to 80% RH at 28º C (wet bulb)
Recommended: 30% to 50%
• Altitude: 3048 m (0 - 10,000 ft)
Note
For continuous, trouble-free operation, the product should NOT be operated at
its maximum environmental limits for extended periods of time. Operating
within the recommended operating range, a less stressful operating
environment, ensures maximum reliability.
