Shipping the H-ADCP

This section explains how to ship the H-ADCP.
Remove all customer-applied coatings or provide certification that the coating is nontoxic if
you are shipping a H-ADCP to TRDI for repair or upgrade. This certification must include the
name of a contact person who is knowledgeable about the coating, the name, manufacturer
of the coating and the appropriate telephone numbers. If you return the equipment without
meeting these conditions, TRDI has instructed our employees not to handle the equipment
and to leave it in the original shipping container pending certification. If you cannot provide
certification, we will return the equipment to you or to a customer-specified cleaning facility.
All costs associated with customer-applied coatings will be at the customer's expense.
When shipping the H-ADCP through a Customs facility, be sure to place the unit so identifying labels are
not covered and can be seen easily by the Customs Inspector. Failure to do so could delay transit time.
TRDI strongly recommends using the original shipping crate whenever transporting the H-
ADCP.
If you need to ship the H-ADCP, use the original shipping crate whenever possible. If the original packag-
ing material is unavailable or unserviceable, additional material is available through TRDI.
For repackaging with commercially available materials:
1. Use a strong shipping container made out of wood or plastic.
2. Install a layer of shock-absorbing static-shielding material, 70-mm to 100-mm thick, around all
sides of the instrument to firmly cushion and prevent movement inside the container.
3. Seal the shipping container securely.
4. Mark the container FRAGILE to ensure careful handing.
5. In any correspondence, refer to the H-ADCP by model and serial number.
