Guidance on Humidity Levels in the Operating Room | AHRMM
Many safety codes and standards regulating the healthcare physical environment now require relative humidity levels in operating rooms (not other areas of the facility) to be at least 20 percent, a change from the 30 percent minimum humidity required by some previous editions of codes. The 20 percent threshold provides hospitals with flexibility during construction and saves …

USP 797 Environmental Monitoring 101 | HVAC Requirements
Humidity. Clean rooms must maintain an adequate humidity level to prevent personnel from sweating due to high humidity and static buildup in low humidity. Low humidity can also cause residual adhesives from labels to stick to surfaces like gloves. According to USP 797, relative humidity (RH) must be below 60% at all times. Pressure. Non-HD ...

Tantalum Capacitors and Moisture Sensitivity
Level 2a specifies a floor life of 4 weeks at 30 °C and 60 % relative humidity (RH). Unused capacitors should be re-sealed in the MBB with fresh desiccant. A moisture strip (Humidity Indicator Card) is included in the bag to assure dryness. To remove excess moisture, capacitors can be dried at 40 °C for 168 h (standard "dry box" conditions).

Server Room Humidity: Learn Critical Humidity Control
Did you know that the relative humidity (rH) in server rooms and data centers must be between 40% and 60%? Too dry will lead to the development of fixed electrical power in the systems. Too damp and corrosion will start slowly harming your devices, resulting in permanent failure. The ambient air temperature outside may be at greater levels when utilizing …
