Due to work needs, I need to use d435 to capture data in a damp environment.I want to consult, can d435 work in a humid environment? If not, can I close the d435 vents and plugs?

Water content in the air:45%

temperature:28 degrees Celsius

d435 work time:Not less than 15 days

In theory, the 400 Series cameras can run indefinitely so long as it remains within recommended temperature tolerances. When a problem occurs in a long-running operation, if the camera temperature is within tolerances then it tends to be related to either the USB port / cable or a glitch in the computing hardware / OS.

 

The data sheet document for the cameras recommends a 'Temperature/ RH' of 40 degrees C / 90% and a maximum operating temperature of 35 degrees C

 

I assume RH to be 'Relative Humidity'.

 

 If the camera meets your humidity needs then your main problem would be maintaining the stability of the computing equipment for a 15 day period or more. Using industrial-grade equipment can help with this.

I just wanted to update you that the Intel Authorized Distributor company FRAMOS is releasing an own-brand industrial version of the RealSense D435 camera in September that has greater casing resistance against dust and water (rated at IP66 protection level), can operate in up to 55 degrees C temperature (compared to the 35 degrees C of the standard D435) and can operate in relative humidity (RH) of 90%. The camera is called the FRAMOS D435e.
