Environmental
Requirements
The environmental requirements of the system are listed in the table below.
Note that these requirements are the same as those of the 8510C Network
Analyzer.
Table 2-2 Environmental Requirements
System heating and cooling
Install air conditioning and heating, if necessary to maintain the ambient
temperature within the appropriate range (as given in the table above). Air
conditioning capacity must be consistent with the BTU ratings given in the
table under “Power Requirements” on page 2-2.
Required conditions for accuracy-enhanced measurement
Accuracy-enhanced (error-corrected) measurements require the ambient
temperature of the 8510XF to be maintained within ±1°C of the ambient
temperature at calibration.
Temperature (Operation) 5 °C to 40 °C (41 °F to 104 °F)
Temperature (Storage) −40
°C to +65 °C (-40 °F to +158 °F)
Temperature (Measurement Calibration) 20
°C to 26 °C (68 °F to 79 °F)
Temperature (Performance Verification) Temperature must be within 1
°C (1.8 °F) of the
temperature at which the measurement
calibration was performed.
Relative Humidity (Operation) 5% to 95% at 40
°C or less (non-condensing)
Relative Humidity (Storage) 5% to 95% at 65
°C or less (non-condensing)
Pressure Altitude (Operation or Storage) Less than 4600 meters (~15,000 feet)
