Installation Environment Requirements

The RG-WS6512 must be installed indoors. To ensure its normal operation and prolonged
service life, the installation site should meet the following requirements.
2.2.1

Temperature/Humidity Requirements

To ensure the normal operation and prolonged service life of the device, maintain an
appropriate temperature and humidity in the equipment room. If the humidity in the
equipment room keeps high for a long time, some mechanical performance issues may
occur, such as the poor insulation of insulating materials and even electric leakage. If the
relative humidity is too low, the insulating gasket may shrink and cause the fixed screws
to loosen. Moreover, it is easy to generate static electricity and harm the circuits in the
device. Too high temperatures can accelerate the aging of insulation materials, greatly
reducing the reliability of the device and severely affecting its service life. The following
table provides the temperature and humidity requirements. (The related specifications in
Chapter 1 prevail.)
Temperature
Long-Term
Operating
15°C to 30°C (59°F
to 86°F)
Note
The ambient temperature and humidity of the device are measured at the point
that is 1.5 m (59.06 in.) above the floor and 0.4 m (15.75 in.) before the device when
there is no protective plate in front or at the back of the device.
Short-term operating indicates that the device functions for no more than
consecutive 48 hours or accumulated 15 days per year.
The temperature and humidity ranges in extremely severe environments generally refer to the possible
values in an equipment room where the air-conditioning system fails and is recovered in no more than 5
hours each time.
Short-Term
Operating
