Cleanliness; Corrosive Gas Limit - H3C S5170-EI Series Installation Manual

Item

Cleanliness

Dust buildup on the chassis might cause electrostatic adsorption and dust corrosion, resulting in
poor contact of metal connectors and contact points. This might shorten the device's lifetime and
even cause device failure in the worst case.

Dust particles
To maintain cleanliness in the equipment room, follow these guidelines:
•
Keep the equipment room away from pollution sources. Do not smoke, eat, or drink in the
equipment room.
•
Use double-layer glass in windows and seal doors and windows with dust-proof rubber strips.
Use screen doors and window screens for doors and windows open to the outside and make
sure the external windows are air tight.
•
Use dustproof materials for floors, walls, and ceilings and use wallpaper or matt paint that does
not produce powders.
•
Clean the equipment room regularly and clean the air filters of the rack each month.
•
Wear ESD clothing and shoe covers before entering the equipment room, keep the ESD
clothing and shoe covers clean, and change them frequently.

Corrosive gas limit

Corrosive gases can accelerate corrosion and aging of metal components. Make sure the corrosive
gases do not exceed the concentration limits as shown in
