Seawater (salt damage)

The air in the vicinity of coastal areas contains large amounts of airborne sea salt particles. If these particles remain

inside computers, substances are formed by a condensation reaction of chemicals. These substances and the

humidity lead to insulation failure and the corrosion and deterioration of components and materials. Therefore,

computers should be installed in locations at a distance from coastal areas.

The following outlines installation criteria for preventing salt water damage due to airborne sea salt particles.


Criteria: The installation site shall not be within 0.5 km of the ocean or coastal areas (unless the computer room

uses air conditioners to filter out airborne sea salt particles from outside air).
