8.5.2 Product Storage

Proper storage minimizes shifts in relative humidity (RH) accuracy and prevents contamination. HDC3120-Q1 has a MSL Level 1. For general details on storage duration and reflow profiles, refer to : MSL Ratings and Reflow Profiles.

A typical recommended storage environment is 10°C to 35°C and 20% to 60% RH. Keep devices in sealed, controlled environments to protect against moisture and chemical contaminants. Keep the sensor shielded from UV/visible light and chemical vapors whenever possible.

In regards to packaging materials, polyethylene bags must be avoided (often blue, pink, or yellow) because the bags can emit harmful vapors. Use sealed, anti-static, moisture-barrier bags (metallic) to protect against excessive moisture and outgassing.
