# STORAGE CONDITIONS

## Storage Conditions

### Recommended Storage  Environmental Conditions

When not in use, GREMSY payloads shall be stored under the following conditions:

* **Ambient Temperature:** 18–25°C
* **Relative Humidity:** 30 – 45 %RH

These conditions are recommended to ensure long-term reliability of electronic components, gimbal motors, camera sensors, and mechanical assemblies.

{% hint style="success" %}
Recommendation: Use a dry cabinet to keep temperature and humidity stable and well-controlled.
{% endhint %}

### Storage Requirements Based on Non-Operating Duration

| Non-Operating Duration      | Storage Requirement                                            |
| --------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| ≤ 12 hours                  | **Should** be stored under the recommended storage conditions. |
| > 12 hours                  | **Must** be stored under the recommended storage conditions.   |
| Long-term storage / standby | **Always** store under the recommended storage conditions.     |

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Warning:** If the device is not maintained under the recommended storage conditions

* > 12-72 hours: condensation on the sensor lens may occur.
* > 72 hours: there is a high risk of moisture-related damage.
  > {% endhint %}

### Important Notes

In high-humidity environments (80–90% RH), dry cabinet storage may be required sooner than the time frames listed above.

Failure to follow these storage conditions may result in:

1. PCB oxidation and corrosion
2. Reduced gimbal motor lifespan
3. Electrical connector and camera sensor malfunction

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.gremsy.com/payloads/general/product-maintenance/storage-conditions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
