Environmental Conditions
When installing the VarioPrint 135/120/110 the environmental conditions of
the room should be as follows:
Table 22 – Environmental Conditions
Optimum Temperature
Range:
Between 62.6°F (17°C) and 78.8°F (26°C) for print speeds
greater than 120 ipm
Between 62.6°F (17°C) and 82.4°F (28°C) for print speeds up to
120 ipm
Optimum Humidity
Range:
Between 20% and 80% Relative Humidity
Atmospheric Pressure:
Less than 1,000 m (3,280.8’) (898.7 hPa or 0.887 atm)
Noise (sound level):
Standby: 47.3 dB; Operating: 75.3 dB
Ozone Emissions:
None
NOTE: In certain areas of the country and during certain times of the year, it
may be necessary to use a humidifier or dehumidifier to attain the proper
humidity levels for optimal machine performance. There is a risk that
productivity, paper feeding, may be affected if the machine is operated
outside of these guidelines.
The machine should not be installed in locations with significant shifts in
temperature or humidity.
Areas containing water, or equipment that can
significantly alter room temperature or humidity, such as a heater, stove, or
portable air conditioner, should be avoided, unless proper environmental
control is available to achieve maximum productivity or quality capability.
Temperature and Humidity
The optimal humidity range for storing paper is 20% to 80% RH with a
room temperature of 62.6°F to 78.8°F (17°C to 26°C) for print speeds
greater than 120 ipm, or 62.6°F to 82.4°F (17°C to 28°C) for print speeds
up to 120 ipm. Storing paper in a location that does not meet these
specifications may affect paper feeding. For example, if the humidity is
too high, paper curling and paper jams will increase. If the humidity is too
low paper may shrink.
Temperature Gradient
If a sudden temperature change occurs, may have an adverse affect on
image positioning. Sudden temperature changes may cause the paper to
bend or contract, cause the machine to malfunction, and form
condensation. Every effort should be made to maintain consistent
temperature and humidity levels in the operating environment at all times
for the VarioPrint.
Ventilation
Ensure that there is an air exchange rate of at least 1 times per hour, and
at least 1,236 ft
3
(35 m
3
) of space in the location where the machine will
be installed.
Elevation Limitation
Install this machine at an elevation below 3,280.8’ (1,000 m) (898.7 hPa).
