2. Checking on receipt
During handling, take great care not
to stress the insulating parts of the
apparatus and the terminals of the
contactor.
Any operation carried out on the
contactor must be done without the
presence of voltage and with the main
protection device open: danger of
electrocution and/or severe burns.
Make sure that operations are carried
out with the main and auxiliary power
off.
On receipt, immediately check integrity of the
packing and the colour of the "SHOCKWATCH"
indicator (Fig. 1) placed on it.
If the "SHOCKWATCH" impact indicator is
WHITE, it means that the packing has not re-
ceived any notable shocks during transport.
Open the packing, remove the contactor as in-
dicated below, and check the state of the ap-
paratus and its correspondence with the name-
plate data (see fig. 2) with what is specified in
the accompanying shipping note and in the or-
der confirmation sent by ABB.
If the "SHOCKWATCH" impact indicator is RED,
follow the instructions indicated on the plate.
Opening the packing does not damage its com-
ponents and it can therefore be re-instated us-
ing the original material.
The contactor is shipped in special packing, in
the open position.
Each piece of apparatus is protected by a plas-
tic cover to prevent any infiltration of water dur-
ing the loading and unloading stages and to
keep the dust off during storage.
To remove the contactor from the packing, pro-
ceed as follows:
– open the plastic bag
– remove the contactor, avoiding any stress to
the functional insulating parts and the termi-
nals of the apparatus.
– use the special lifting plates for the withdraw-
able version
– check the rating plate characteristics to make
sure that the performances are suitable for
the destined application and that they are
those indicated in the order confirmation.
Should any damage or irregularity be noted in
the supply on unpacking, notify ABB (directly
or through the agent or supplier) as soon as
possible and in any case within five days of re-
ceipt.
The apparatus is only supplied with the acces-
sories specified at the time of ordering and vali-
dated in the order confirmation sent by ABB.
The accompanying documents inserted in the

Other documents which are sent prior to ship-
ment of the apparatus are:
