MPORTAN

The speed of the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 fans is stepped up and

down in response to the ambient temperature.

When the ambient temperature reaches a high level, the fan will rotate at a

higher speed, which will increase the noise level. Up to 25°C the noise level

should not exceed about 43.5dB, but higher temperatures or abnormal fan

situations can result in noise levels over 43.5dB, and seclusion in a

dedicated server room is generally recommended.
