1. HANDLING AND STORAGE
DynAmp products are engineered and manufactured for use in industrial environments.
However, they contain sensitive electronic and mechanical components which may be
damaged and fail if not handled and stored properly. All products must be handled and
stored with the same care as any precision measurement instrument. Severe bumps or jolts
may damage internal parts and cause malfunction or premature failure. DynAmp products
are designed and assembled with conformal coating, shock mounting, and environmental
seals, when appropriate or when specified. However, this protection requires that the product
must be properly installed and operational before the protection is fully functional. Therefore,
adequate protection from humidity, shock, and temperature must be provided during handling
and storage prior to installation.
The handling and storage of equipment must be sufficient to meet the storage temperature
and humidity specifications of the product and to prevent any condensation or contact with
water or any other liquid. The storage location and container or crate must provide adequate
protection from precipitation (rain, snow, ice) and direct water contact. Adequate shelter must
be provided to prevent the accumulation of precipitation (rain, snow, ice) and water which can
lead to the deterioration or failure of shipping containers or crates and cause water ingress.
Storage in coastal or industrial areas subject to salt-laden or corrosive air or areas of wind-
driven sand or other abrasive dust must be adequate to prevent the deterioration or failure of
shipping containers or crates and cause ingress. Frequent inspection of storage areas and
storage containers or crates is required to ensure proper storage conditions are being
maintained.
If the shipping container or crate is opened and/or the equipment is removed for inspection
prior to installation, the equipment must be repackaged in the original undamaged container
or crate in the same manner as it was shipped to prevent environmental damage or placed in
a storage location that meets the required environmental and storage conditions.
General product storage temperature and humidity requirements:
Storage Temperature:
-40°C to 70°C
-40°F to 158°F
Storage Humidity:
Maximum 85%, non-condensing
DynAmp, LLC does not assume liability for the customer’s failure to comply with handling and
storage requirements.
