Package the Swept CW
Generator for Shipment
CAUTION
3-18 Installation
Use the following steps to package the swept CW generator for
shipment to Hewlett-Packard for service:
1. Fill in a service tag (available at the end of Chapter 4) and attach
it to the instrument. Please be as specific as possible about the
nature of the problem. Send a copy of any or all of the following
information:
Any error messages that appeared on the swept CW generator
n
display
A completed Performance Test record from the service guide for
n
your instrument
Any other specific data on the performance of the swept CW
n
generator
Swept CW generator damage can result from using packaging
materials other than those specified. Never use styrene pellets in any
shape as packaging materials. They do not adequately cushion the
instrument or prevent it from shifting in the carton. Styrene pellets
cause equipment damage by generating static electricity and by
lodging in the swept CW generator fan.
2. Use the original packaging materials or a strong shipping container
that is made of double-walled, corrugated cardboard with 159 kg
(350 lb) bursting strength. The carton must be both large enough
and strong enough to accommodate the swept CW generator and
allow at least 3 to 4 inches on all sides of the swept CW generator
for packing material.
3. Surround the instrument with at least 3 to 4 inches of packing
material, or enough to prevent the instrument from moving in
the carton. If packing foam is not available, the best alternative
is SD-240 Air Cap TM from Sealed Air Corporation (Hayward,
CA 94545). Air Cap looks like a plastic sheet covered with
static electricity. Wrap the instrument several times in the
material to both protect the instrument and prevent it from
moving in the carton.
4. Seal the shipping container securely with strong nylon adhesive
tape.
5. Mark the shipping container "FRAGILE, HANDLE WITH
CARE" to ensure careful handling.
6. Retain copies of all shipping papers.
In any correspondence, refer to the swept CW generator by model
number and full serial number.
