Standard operating temperature
Table 13. Standard operating temperature specifications
Standard operating temperature Specifications
Continuous operation (for altitude less than 950 m or 3117
ft)
+5°C–45°C (41°F–113°F) with no direct sunlight on the equipment
NOTE: The 150W CPU support is only up to 35°C.
NOTE: GPU continuous operation is supported up to 30°C.
NOTE: GPU continuous operation is supported up to 45°C with
optional fan booster kit.
Expanded operating temperature
Table 14. Expanded operating temperature specifications
Expanded operating temperature Specifications
Continuous operation 5°C to 45°C at 5% to 85% RH with 29°C dew point.
NOTE: Outside the standard operating temperature (10°C to
35°C), the system can operate continuously in temperatures as
low as 5°C and as high as 45°C.
For temperatures between 35°C and 45°C, de-rate maximum allowable
temperature by 1°C per 175 m above 950 m (1°F per 319 ft).
≤ 1% of annual operating hours –5°C to 55°C at 5% to 90% RH with 29°C dew point.
NOTE: Outside the standard operating temperature (10°C to
35°C), the system can operate down to –5°C or up to 55°C for a
maximum of 1% of its annual operating hours.
NOTE: GPU expanded operating temperatures is up to 37°C for
selected configurations.
NOTE: GPU expanded operating temperatures is up to 50°C for
selected configurations with optional fan booster kit.
For temperatures between 45°C and 55°C, de-rate maximum allowable
temperature by 1°C per 125 m above 950 m (1°F per 228 ft).
NOTE: When operating in the expanded temperature range, system performance may be impacted.
NOTE: When operating in the expanded temperature range, ambient temperature warnings may be reported on the LCD
panel and in the System Event Log.
Expanded operating temperature restrictions
• Do not perform cold start below -15C Per IEC 60945.
• The operating temperature specified is for a maximum altitude of 950 m.
• Redundant power supplies are required.
