Environmental

NOTE: For additional information about environmental measurements for specific system configurations, see

dell.com/environmental_datasheets.

Storage temperature –40 °C to 65 °C (–40 °F to 149 °F) with a maximum

temperature gradation of 20 °C per hour.

Standard operating temperature Continuous operation: 10 °C to 35 °C at 10% to 80%

relative humidity (RH), with 26 °C max dew point. De-rate

maximum allowable dry bulb temperature at 1 °C per 300

m above 900 m (1 °F per 550 ft).

Expanded operating temperature

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 and in the System Event Log.

≤ 10% of annual operating hours 5 °C to 40 °C at 5% to 85% RH with 26 °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 40 °C for a maximum of 10% of its annual

operating hours.

For temperatures between 35 °C and 40 °C, de-rate

maximum allowable dry bulb temperature by 1 °C per 175

m above 950 m (1 °F per 319 ft).

≤ 1% of annual operating hours –5 °C to 45 °C at 5% to 90% RH with 26 °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 45 °C for a maximum of 1% of its annual

operating hours.

Environmental

For temperatures between 40 °C and 45 °C, de-rate

maximum allowable dry bulb temperature by 1 °C per 125

m above 950 m (1 °F per 228 ft).

Expanded operating temperature restriction

• Do not perform a cold startup below 5 °C.

• Maximum 95 W processor is supported.

• The following do not support the expanded

operating temperature range:

– PCIe SSDs

– LRDIMMs

– Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC)

H710/H710P cards (in dual-processor

configurations)

• When populating the server module slots in the

PowerEdge VRTX enclosure with only

PowerEdge M620 server modules:

– Install only 97 mm wide heat sink(s).

– Dual-processor server modules with

PERC H310 cards cannot be mixed with

single-processor server modules.

– If you install a server module with two

processors and a PERC H310 card in the

PowerEdge VRTX enclosure, all server

module slots in the enclosure must have

PowerEdge M620 server modules with

the same configuration (PowerEdge

M620 server modules with two

processors and a PERC H310 card).

However, vacant server module slots in

the enclosure can be installed with

server module blanks.
