Particulate and gaseous contamination specifications

The following table defines the limitations that help avoid any equipment damage or failure 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 may need to rectify the environmental conditions. Remediation of environmental conditions is the responsibility of the customer.
Table 1. Particulate contamination specifications

Air filtration specification: Data center air filtration defines, ISO Class 8 per ISO 14644-1 should have a 95% upper confidence limit. Note: This condition applies only to data center environments. 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. Note: Air entering the data center must have the MERV11 or MERV13 filtration. Conductive dust specification: Air must be free of conductive dust, zinc whiskers, or other conductive particles. Note: This condition applies to data center and nondata center environments. Corrosive dust specification: Air must be free of corrosive dust. Residual dust present in the air must have a deliquescent point less than 60% relative humidity. Note: This condition applies to data center and nondata 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.
NOTE This condition applies to data center and nondata center environments.
Table 2. Gaseous contamination specifications

The copper coupon corrosion rate is <300 Å/month per Class G1 defines, ANSI/ISA71.04-2013. The silver coupon corrosion rate is <200 Å/month defines, ANSI/ISA71.04-2013.
Gaseous contamination Specifications
Copper coupon corrosion rate <300 Å/month per Class G1 defines, ANSI/ISA71.04-2013.
Silver coupon corrosion rate <200 Å/month defines, ANSI/ISA71.04-2013.
NOTE Maximum corrosive contaminant levels measured at ≤50% relative humidity.
