Environmental Factors

What is the recommended humidity range for data centers to prevent both condensation and static discharge?

• 10% to 30%

• 30% to 50%

• 40% to 60%

• 60% to 80%

What is the optimal temperature range for electrical equipment in data centers, according to industry best practices?

• 50°F to 60°F (10°C to 15.6°C)

• 64°F to 81°F (17.7°C to 27.2°C)

• 80°F to 90°F (26.7°C to 32.2°C)

• 90°F to 100°F (32.2°C to 37.8°C)

What is the primary purpose of an HVAC system in a data center?

• To provide emergency power backup.

• To manage temperature and humidity.

• To detect and suppress fires.

• To control network traffic.

Why is water generally not the best option for fire suppression in data centers?

• Water is too expensive for large data centers.

• Water can cause significant damage to electronic equipment.

• Water evaporates too quickly in a data center environment.

• Water cannot effectively extinguish electrical fires.
