Although all of our solutions are tested against extreme environmental conditions for the purposes of marine type approval, installation should take into account the following guidelines:
> Keep the computer away from excessive moisture, direct sunlight and the extremes of heat and cold. Wherever possible, ensure that the unit is operated within the manufacturer's specified operating range:
Temperature : 10 to 35 C (operating), -30 to 60 C (non-operating)
Humidity : 10 to 90% (operating), 5 to 95% (non-operating)
> Leave a 10.2cm (4-inch) clearance on all vented sides of the computer to permit the required airflow
> Never restrict airflow into the computer by blocking any vents or air intakes
> Occasionally clean the air vents on all vented sides of the computer
> If the computer is to be operated within a separate enclosure, intake and exhaust ventilation must be provided on the enclosure, and the same operating guidelines listed above still apply
By following these guidelines you will maximise the life of your computer and minimise service costs |
