Unpacking and inspecting the device

REF601/REJ601 products, although of robust construction, require careful
handling prior to installation on site. The delivered products should always be
examined to ensure that no damage has been sustained during transit.
Remove transport packing carefully without force. Appropriate tools needs to be
used.
Check the relay for transport damages. If the product has been damaged, a claim
should be made to the transport contractor and the local representative of ABB
should be promptly notified. Compare the type designation of the product with the
ordering information to verify that you have received the right product.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) :
The products contain components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. The
electronic circuits are well protected by the relay case and therefore the rear panel
may not be removed.

Storage

On receipt, the apparatus must be carefully unpacked and checked as described
under chapter 6.1. Should installation not be carried out immediately, the apparatus
must be repacked using the original packing material. Should the original packing
material no longer be available, store the apparatus in a dry, dust-free, covered area
which is non-corrosive and has a temperature of between – 40 °C and + 70 °C.
Checking environmental condition and mounting
space
The mechanical and electrical environmental conditions at the installation site must
be within the limits described in the technical data.
Avoid installation in dusty, damp places.
Avoid places susceptible to rapid temperature variations, powerful vibrations
and shocks, surge voltages of high amplitude and fast rise time, strong induced
magnetic fields or similar extreme conditions.
Check that sufficient space is available.
To allow access for maintenance and future modifications a sufficient space is
needed in front and at side of the relay.
Suitably qualified personnel with adequate knowledge of the apparatus must
carry out all the installation operations.
The relay should be disconnected before carrying out any work on relay.
