VMC1300 and Turn270 - and temperature

Post by Benny » Mon 09 Feb , 2009 19:08 pm

Customer writes in:
I am looking at purchasing a VMC1300 and Turn270. They are going to be placed in a trailer that could get quite warm in the summer. Do you recommend air conditioning? If that's not a possibility, will the machines work in heat up to 100.00 or so Fahrenheit degrees? Is there a recommended temperature range? such as 40 - 100 fahrenheit degrees.
Thank you

The spec for the controller card is as stated:

I would suggest Air Conditioning would be required and depending on humidity and temperature the trailer should be stored indoors so the conditions are controlled when the unit is not being used


The Control card must be installed in an ambient temperature of 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F).


The temperatures limit changes with Humidity so that the limit is up to 31 °C (87 °F) decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40 °C (104 °F), non-condensing.

The Control must be installed where the pollution degree according to IEC664 shall not exceed 2.

There shall not be abnormal levels of nuclear radiation or X-rays.
