Preparing the Environment

Ensure that the environment you are using the PXIe-5841 in meets the following specifications.

Temperature and humidity
Operating ambient temperature

Chassis with slot cooling capacity ≥58 W[1]1 Not all chassis with a slot cooling capacity ≥58 W can achieve this ambient temperature range. Refer to PXI chassis specifications to determine the ambient temperature ranges your chassis can achieve.

0 °C to 55 °C

Chassis with slot cooling capacity ≥38 W[2]2 For chassis with a slot cooling capacity of 38 W, the fan speed must be set to HIGH for use in ambient temperature range.

0 °C to 40 °C

Operating relative humidity

10% to 90%, noncondensing

Maximum altitude

2,000 m (800 mbar) (at 25 °C ambient temperature)

Pollution Degree

2

Indoor use only.

Notice Clean the hardware with a soft, nonmetallic brush or lint free cloth. Make sure that the hardware is completely dry and free from contaminants before returning it to service.
Note Refer to the PXIe-5841 Specifications for complete specifications.
