Storage; Handling - ABB DS1 Installation And User Manual

1.4 Storage

When the apparatus must be stored for a certain period of
time, our workshops can provide (on request) suitable packing
for the specified storage conditions.
On receipt, the apparatus must be carefully unpacked and
checked as described in Checking on receipt (chap. 2).
If immediate installation is not possible, apparatus must be
repacked in its original packing materials.
Insert at least one packet of hygroscopic substance inside the
packing of each piece of apparatus.
Should the original packing be unavailable and immediate
installation is not possible, store the apparatus in a covered,
well-ventilated, dry, dust-free, non-corrosive place, well away
from flammable materials and at a temperature between –15 °C
and +55 °C.
In any case, avoid accidental impact or positions which could
stress the structure of the apparatus.

1.5 Handling

Use the tool (1) in (fig. 2) to lift and handle
the apparatus.
Insert the hooks (2) into the holes made in
the apparatus frame and lift. Take care when
lifting tools are used: the load is not perfectly
balanced (it is unbalanced toward the poles).
Unhook the lifting tools after having com-
pleted the operation (in any case before put-
ting into service).
When handling the apparatus, always take great care not to
stress the insulating parts or the apparatus terminals.
The apparatus must not be handled by inserting lifting devices
directly under it.
If this method is unavoidable, place the apparatus on a sturdy
supporting surface (see fig. 2).
