Part of Environmental IA Controls - Temperature
Associated with IA controls: PETC-1, PETC-2
Lack of temperature controls can lead to fluctuations in temperature which could be potentially
Check to see if temperature controls have been installed (automatic controls for Mission Assurance Category (MAC) levels I & II). For MAC III systems there may be an alarm when temperatures fluctuate, requiring manual employee intervention. NOTES: In general such an area will be in raised floor space. The requirement should not be applied to administrative/office space. This requirement should also not be applied to a tactical environment, unless it is a fixed computer facility supporting missions in a Theater of Operations. The standards to be applied for applicability in a tactical environment are: 1) The facility containing the computer room has been in operation over 1-year. 2) The facility is "fixed facility" - a hard building made from normal construction materials - wood, steel, brick, stone, mortar, etc.
1. For Information Technology (IT) areas containing MAC I and MAC II system equipment automatic temperature controls must be installed to prevent temperature fluctuations. 2. For areas containing MAC III equipment temperature controls that provide an alarm when temperature fluctuations potentially harmful to personnel or equipment operation are detected must be installed.
