TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
3.1
Transport
The MetalJet D2+ source should only be transported in an upright position.
The MetalJet D2+ source may be considered to be dangerous goods when being transported. Contact
Excillum for more information, see Section 1.3.4.
Information regarding the overall dimensions and weight may be found in Section 11.
Only remove the protection caps from the connections on the turbopump, roughing pump, jet-exit

3.1.1
Lifting
Use the three lifting handles on the side to lift the pump box (see Figure 3-1). The pump box must be
lifted by at least two persons using correct lifting technique to avoid personal injuries as well as
damage to the pump box.
Figure 3-1.
Use the three lifting handles when moving the pump box. The third handle is on the far side of the
pump box (not shown in the image).
The electron gun/x-ray head must be lifted by at least two persons using correct lifting technique to
avoid personal injuries as well as damage to the electron gun/x-ray head.
Pay special attention to the jet-exit port and cooling-water connections when putting the electron
gun/x-ray head down. It sticks out below the base plate and may be damaged if not positioned slightly
outside the edge of a table, see Figure 3-2.
