Additional Considerations
The load unit is typically shipped in a horizontal position on a pallet or in a crate.
Lifting and moving instructions that describe proper handling methods are placed
in a protective envelope and shipped with the load unit. These instructions
include recommended methods to remove the unit from the pallet, raise the unit
erect, and move it into position; for additional information, see
Instructions"
on page 29. Read all provided instructions carefully to understand
how to handle the weight of the components. It is recommended that personnel
experienced in the practice of rigging for construction and industrial operations
be employed. The proper use of lifting slings where the center of gravity is
elevated above the floor is essential to the safety of personnel and equipment.
After the load unit is moved into position, install the vibration isolation pads to
ensure proper vibration isolation between the load unit and floor.
The routing path of the electrical cables should be noted with respect to any
obstructions that could cause the cable to be abraded by rubbing during machine
operation. It is recommended that electrical cabling be routed in overhead wire
trays or, as a minimum, be protected on the floor with adequate covering to
prevent damage caused during fixturing, by dropping specimens and tools, or by
walking on them. Sufficient space should also be left around the load unit for
maintenance and final hook-ups.
Packaging and movement of the computer console is similar to the load unit.
Other peripheral components (such as disk drives) that are susceptible to dust
contamination should be placed away from obvious sources of contamination,
and the room should be slightly positively pressurized to prevent migration of
dust and dirt into the room.
