Installation Site Assessment
Before installing equipment at a site, the characteristics of the site should be considered to
determine whether they will adversely affect the reliability of the equipment. The following
section discusses some of the site factors to consider prior to deploying equipment.
Geographical Location
Different geographical locations carry different risk factors. For example, coastal installations
with prevailing winds from the sea may be affected by Airborne Sea Salt Particles (ASSP),
which can be carried many kilometers inland. As well, installations near ancient seabeds that
have very high levels of salt in the soil may be affected by ASSP during windy drought
conditions. Mountainous regions near coasts cause unique fog conditions. High humidity
environments often cross dew point thresholds at night.
Consider whether the installation site is in an area that has the potential to experience any of
the following seasonal influences: hurricanes, cyclones, tidal or river flooding, recent volcanic
activity, or forest fires.
Examine the local surrounding environment of the installation site for proximity to possible
sources of contaminants that may cause or accelerate corrosion, especially in the presence of
high humidity.
Possible sources of contaminants include: landfills, fertilizer manufacturing, farming, sewage,
geothermal activity, swamps or marshes, oceans, ancient seabeds, power generation,
automotive and diesel combustion, fossil fuel processing, cement plants, construction sites,
steel blast furnaces, steel electric furnaces, coke plants, pulp manufacturing, chlorine plants,
rubber manufacturing, paint manufacturing, aluminum manufacturing, ore smelting, tobacco
smoke, and battery manufacturing.
If there is any uncertainty surrounding the concentration of various contaminants at the
installation site, then Corrosion Classification Coupons may be used to classify the severity of
the environment according to the standard ISA 71.04.
Installation Site Type
The site must provide the appropriate environment for the installed equipment. This usually
involves controlling ingress of contaminants and ensuring that humidity remains as low as
possible.
Installations are typically in a hut, parking garage, room, or cabinet. Installation in data
centers or telecom centers do not usually have high pollution levels but could still have high
humidity levels.
• Room
Is the room connected to the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system of
the building? What protection is there to prevent ingress of dust, pollution, and humidity?
To seal the environment properly, ensure that any doors, windows, vents, holes, or
conduits are sealed or gasketed appropriately to ensure that the HVAC system can control
the environment. These must be checked as part of routine site maintenance.
If outside air is brought in for ventilation, does it pass through a filter? What is the type
and rating of the filter? Filters can help but the type of filter must be appropriate for the
pollutants you are trying to exclude. For example, a standard fiberglass type air filter only
prevents large debris and dirt from entering, but will do nothing to prevent entry of small
particles (such as ASSP), humid air or gaseous contaminants. It is important to understand
the local conditions and consider what type of filtering is most appropriate. Minimum
Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) charts may serve as a good source to understand
particle sizes and filter options.
One simple yet effective way to keep pollutants out is to ensure that positive pressure is
maintained inside the room or cabinet as compared to the outside by having fans blowing
properly filtered air into the room.
Does the site have an air conditioner or dehumidifier? Is the rating and capacity adequate
for the space? Where does the dehumidifier or air conditioner water drainage go?
Humidity reduction is one of the key elements in corrosion control. Air conditioners and
dehumidifiers are recommended to reduce local relative humidity at the site. Another
method is to keep the temperature in the cabinet high enough to maintain the relative
humidity at less than 50%. Condensate, if allowed to stay in the site or enclosure, will
evaporate over time and lead to higher relative humidity and corrosion.
•Cabinet
There are 3 major classifications of cabinets.
1. Direct Air Cooled (DAC) cabinets bring air into the cabinet to cool the equipment. DAC
cabinets may or may not be filtered. Unfiltered air intake and exhaust is not recommended
since issues will occur if unfiltered air is allowed into the cabinet. The ideal filter is a
hydrophobic filter (GORE) since it filters particles smaller than 1 micron. Hydrophobic
filters will prevent passage of water droplets but still allow water vapor to pass. Some
chemical pollutants may require carbon or other types of filters particularly suited to the
type of pollution.

2. Heat Exchange (HEX) cabinets use a sealed cabinet and a heat exchanger to withdraw
heat from the cabinet interior without bringing outside air into the cabinet. This results in
no contamination influx and low humidity within the cabinet.
3. Air Conditioned (AC) cabinets use a mechanical or Thermal Electric Cooling (TEC)
refrigeration unit to handle higher levels of heat in high-power installations. AC
implementation is similar to HEX since the cabinet should be sealed. Proper AC
implementation should never allow unfiltered air into the cabinet interior.
Site Influences
Is backup power generation located in the same area as the communications equipment? Are
batteries located in the same area as the equipment?
Backup generators that are located in the same enclosed area as the communications
equipment may cause a great deal of site pollution, such as nitrous oxides and hydrogen
sulphides, which can be detrimental to the long-term reliability and performance of
equipment. A best practice is to house motor generator sets in a separate enclosure from the
communications equipment. Batteries will outgas during charge and discharge cycles. These
gases are very corrosive and may also be explosive in sufficient concentration. Batteries
should always be housed in a properly vented enclosure or compartment, separate from the
communications equipment.
Is the equipment located above the water grade? Is there adequate water drainage and leak
controls?
Many areas are prone to flooding during rainy season or spring thaws, and it is important for
the site to be located above typically anticipated flood levels, or to have sump pumps to keep
the installation site dry. Drainage with backflow preventers should be installed if the site has
provision for water sources, such as cooling towers.
What protection is there to prevent entry of insects, pests, and vermin?
Pests and vermin such as insects, mice, and spiders prefer warm, sheltered areas. All entries
into the enclosure or shelter should be appropriately sealed and regularly maintained.
Site Assessment Checklists
The following site assessment checklists are intended to act as a tool in assessing the potential
risks that must be managed at an installation site. The checklists are not intended to provide
an exhaustive list of all risk factors, but rather to indicate some of the most common risks.
The first two checklists indicate environmental factors that may result in malfunctioning or
failing equipment if the installation site is not appropriately deployed and maintained to
counteract the detrimental effects of the environment. For each risk factor that is present, you
must consider how to best design the installation site to avoid the negative effects of the risk
factor. For the final checklist, any question that is answered in the negative indicates that
measures must be taken to correct the installation site appropriately to reduce the risk of
equipment damage.
