Particulate and gaseous contamination specifications

This section defines the limitations that prevent damage to the IT equipment from particulate and gaseous contamination. If the levels of particulate or gaseous pollution exceed the specified limitations and result in equipment damage or failure, you must rectify the environmental conditions. Remediation of environmental conditions is the responsibility of the customer.

The following table contains particulate contamination specifications:

Particulate contamination Specifications
Air filtration Data center air filtration as defined by ISO Class 8 per ISO 14644-1 with a 95% upper confidence limit.

This condition applies to data center environments only. Air filtration requirements do not apply to IT equipment designed to be used outside a data center, in environments such as an office or factory floor.

Air entering the data center must have MERV11 or MERV13 filtration.
Conductive dust Air must be free of conductive dust, zinc whiskers, or other conductive particles.

This condition applies to data center and non-data center environments.
Corrosive dust Air must be free of corrosive dust. Residual dust present in the air must have a deliquescent point less than 60% relative humidity.

This condition applies to data center and non-data center environments.

The following table contains gaseous contamination specifications:
