Moisture Penetration

Moisture is the leading cause of faults associated with outdoor panel
applications. The introduction of moisture or condensate in the DataSite
configured panel may cause components in the panel to wear out prematurely.
Moisture in the panel will cause corrosion of some of the components, making
the DataSite configured panel unreliable. In the event that moisture or
condensate is found within the panel, check all conduit connections as well as
the main gasket seal of the DataSite configured panel. If any seals are broken
or leaking, replace or fix these seals to ensure that no moisture accumulation
occurs within the panel.
