iMac 2019 in humidity

I have iMac 2019 and the place where I am working have a lot of humidity - https://ibb.co/0VfJh2T .

Daily have 70% humidity.


The problem is that the power supply crashed twice for humidity?


In the place where I am working I have dehumidifier.

Also in the same place I am using MacBook and no issue was found. It works right.


What Apple recommend to do?

Any other solution?


Thank you,

Stavros.

The Apple humidity spec for 2019 is " Relative humidity: 5% to 95% noncondensing"


The "noncondensing" part is important. As long as you can keep moisture from condensing on the inside of your Mac or its accessories, they should work just fine. But condensation is the same as a water incursion.


No two Macs are alike so you have to deal with the problem you have with the Mac experiencing the problem. However, That does not mean any of your Macs are not at risk.


If you are in fact experiencing high humidity related problems you likely need to get a dehumidified with a substantially greater water extraction capability. Apple appears to be rather rigid as to acceptable humidity standards.
