Disabled Personnel
The customer is responsible for determining applicable Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements for the site. The ADA requires certain
clearances for handicapped personnel.
Particularly consider the ADA requirement for a 36" wide aisle for
wheelchair-bound personnel. The aisle must include an adjacent "T" shaped
area to allow room for maneuvering a wheelchair.
Hazardous Materials and Equipment
The following information is provided as an aid for site planning.
Note:
Compliance with all local, state, and federal regulations concerning
handling and use of hazardous materials and equipment is the sole
responsibility of the customer and associated agents.
The proposed site must not have imminent hazards present in the form of
hazardous materials (stored or spilled), harmful or dangerous conditions, or
exposure to RF energy levels in excess of ANSI Occupational Guidelines.
If asbestos removal is required, it must be removed by a certified asbestos
remover from the site improvement area or from places where it would be
disturbed during site construction.
Floors containing asbestos may be left intact. However, drilling or
penetration of the floor must be done in accordance with federal and state
clean air guidelines. It is recommended that drilling be performed by a
certified asbestos remover.
After any removal of asbestos, a certificate of air cleanliness for the site must
be obtained from the contractor.
The standard battery system uses valve-regulated batteries which are
designed for telecommunication applications. These batteries are also
referred to as sealed or maintenance-free lead-acid batteries. Motorola
recommends that these batteries be stored, transported, and installed by a
certified hazardous material handler. Many regulatory agencies classify
batteries as hazardous material. Special permits and safety equipment may
be needed.
Seismically Active Areas
Sites that are in seismically active areas may require additional bracing of
the equipment cabinets. This manual does not contain specific procedures
related to seismic bracing.
