Transport and packaging

Choose a suitable packaging when returning the unit itself or one of its components to Cornelius Deutschland
GmbH, e.g. for repairs. In particular, make sure that the unit and any components are protected from
shock/impact, moisture, dirt and electrostatic discharge (ESD). This will prevent transport damage to the unit
and to the components, for which the manufacturer shall assume no liability.
Caution!
Component damage due to freezing liquids
Ambient temperatures that are below freezing will lead to the freezing of any water or cleaning agent
residue remaining inside the unit. This will lead
to damage to internal components.
o
Before shipment, storage or relocation of the unit, the unit is to be cleaned and the cleaning solution
is to be fully drained from the unit.
2.1

Storage

Avoid excessive temperature fluctuations as condensate may form, which in turn may cause damage to the unit
or to the components.
The permissible storage temperature is -10 °C to +50 °C.
The acclimatization period is 6 hours.
Caution!
Damage due to improper storage
Dirt or moisture entering a unit, as well as certain weather conditions (e.g. condensate forming at the unit,
sunlight) will cause damage to the unit and its components.
• Protect the unit and its components by storing the unit in a clean and dry place, and by ensuring stable
ambient conditions.
• If possible, store the unit in its original packaging. Unpacked units must be covered with a dustproof
cover. No condensate must form under the cover.
Caution!
Risk of electrostatic charge!
Improper handling or storage may result in electrostatic charges.
o
If possible, store units and/or any electronic components in their original packaging.
o
Keep units and/or electronic components away from charged objects, fields and insulators.
o
Avoid electrostatic charges when removing packaging and/or handling electronic assemblies and
components by working at an ESD protected workstation or work area.
o
When working at the unit or its components, wear a grounding (antistatic) wrist strap at the very
least and wear antistatic gloves if necessary.
Caution!
Component damage due to material ageing
Material can age due to long storage periods, thereby affecting the material's properties (e.g. plastics
and seals may become brittle). The properties of lubricants may change due to long storage periods.
o
Check the assemblies and components for damage before each use/before installing them. Do not
install assemblies or components that show visible signs of ageing.
