| *The temperature is the difference between the temperature of the operating conditions and the current ambient temperature. | |||
| Example: | |||
| Is the current ambient temperature greater than the temperature of the operating conditions | |||
| (50°C / 122°F (current ambient temperature)) – (40°C / 104°F (operating temperature)) = 10°C / 50°F | |||
| Is the current ambient temperature less than the temperature of the operating conditions | |||
| (0°C / 32°F (operating temperature)) – (-5°C / 23°F (current ambient temperature)) = 5°C / 41°F | |||
