Environmental Engineering (EE) - Environmental conditions and environmental tests for telecommunications equipment - Part 1-2: Classification of environmental conditions - Transportation

The present document defines classes of environmental conditions and their severities to which telecommunication equipment may be exposed. The severities specified are those which will have a low probability of being exceeded; generally less than 1 %. The present document applies to equipment being transported from one place to another after being made ready for dispatch from the manufacturer's works. The most commonly used methods of transportation have been taken into account, i.e. ground, water and air transport. Loading and unloading as well as temporary storage, have been included. Where the equipment is packaged the environmental conditions apply to the packaged equipment. NOTE: Normal transportation time is considered to be 30 days or less. Where the total transportation time exceeds 30 days then additional storage or packaging precautions should be considered.

Okoljski inženiring (EE) - Okoljski pogoji in preskusi vplivov okolja na telekomunikacijsko opremo - 1-2. del: Klasifikacija okoljskih pogojev - Prevoz

Ta dokument opredeljuje razrede okoljskih pogojev in njihovih mejnih vrednosti, ki jim je telekomunikacijska oprema lahko izpostavljena. Navedene mejne vrednosti so tiste, za katere je verjetnost, da bodo prekoračene, majhna; v splošnem manj kot 1 %. Ta dokument velja za opremo, ki se prevaža iz enega kraja v drugega, potem ko jo je proizvajalec pripravil na odpremo iz svojih delavnic. Upoštevane so bile vse običajne metode prevoza, tj. kopenski, morski in letalski prevoz. Nakladanje, raztovarjanje in začasno shranjevanje so vključeni. Kjer je oprema zapakirana, veljajo okoljski pogoji za opremo v embalaži. OPOMBA: Običajni čas prevoza je 30 dni ali manj. Če celotni čas prevoza prekorači 30 dni, je treba poskrbeti za dodatne ukrepe za shranjevanje in pakiranje.

3 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
absolute humidity: mass of water vapour in grammes which is associated with one cubic metre of dry air in an
air/water vapour mixture
non-weatherprotected location: equipment, packaged or unpackaged, is not protected in any way from the
environment
relative humidity: ratio of the partial pressure of the water vapour in moist air at a given temperature, to the partial
pressure of the water vapour in saturated air at the same temperature
weatherprotected location: location at which the equipment is protected from direct weather influences
NOTE: Totally weatherprotected location: the equipment, packaged or unpackaged, is contained within an
enclosure which affords some protection from the environment, ranging from a temperature controlled
container to a waterproof cover placed over the equipment. Ventilation ranges from controlled air flow to
the raising of part of a waterproof cover to allow for natural air flow.
4 Environmental classes
Three different environmental classes have been defined. Classes 2.1 and 2.2 are special classes relating to low
temperature and less severe mechanical conditions. Class 2.3 is the normal class for transpo

3 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
absolute humidity: mass of water vapour in grammes which is associated with one cubic metre of dry air in an
air/water vapour mixture
non-weatherprotected location: equipment, packaged or unpackaged, is not protected in any way from the
environment
relative humidity: ratio of the partial pressure of the water vapour in moist air at a given temperature, to the partial
pressure of the water vapour in saturated air at the same temperature
weatherprotected location: location at which the equipment is protected from direct weather influences
NOTE: Totally weatherprotected location: the equipment, packaged or unpackaged, is contained within an
enclosure which affords some protection from the environment, ranging from a temperature controlled
container to a waterproof cover placed over the equipment. Ventilation ranges from controlled air flow to
the raising of part of a waterproof cover to allow for natural air flow.
4 Environmental classes
Three different environmental classes have been defined. Classes 2.1 and 2.2 are special classes relating to low
temperature and less severe mechanical conditions. Class 2.3 is the normal class for transportation of equipment.
4.1 Class 2.1: Very careful transportation
