Packing and Transportation Requirements

Minimum Packing Requirements
Uncrated cabinets need to be completely covered in plastic and must be stretch-wrap sealed
around the sides.
For water, air, and rail transport, the equipment must be packaged in a solid wall crate
adequately constructed to support the equipment. Additionally, the equipment must be sealed
in a moisture vapor barrier that is supported by an appropriate level of moisture inhibiting
material (e.g., dessicant).
Packaging maintenance may be required during transit or storage. Packaging maintenance
includes, but is not limited to, the following examples:
1. Vapor barrier repair or replacement if barrier seal is damaged during transport or opened
for inspection.
2. Replacement of desiccant material if product will be exposed to high moisture environment
for an extended period of time.Refer to packaging labels and drawing instructions provided
with your specific system for guidance on proper strap locations.
3. Repair or replacement of pallet or base frame if damaged and no longer capable to support
safe, reliable equipment lift or transport.
4. Repair or replacement of crating material if damaged and no longer capable to provide
protective environment for equipment.
Contact Siemens when extended periods of storage or exposure to extreme environmental
conditions occur.
Transportation Requirements
