4 Packaging, transport and storage
4.1 Packaging
The products are sometimes supplied with sealed packaging and sometimes
in a dry state, depending on requirements.
Sealed packaging surrounds the packaged goods with plastic foil on all
sides.
Products that have also been dried are identified by a yellow label on the
sealed packaging. In the dry state, delivery is also possible in a transport
container.
The information in the following sections should be applied as appropriate.
4.1.1 Suitability
NOTICE
Property damage due to incorrectly stacked crates!
Stacking the crates incorrectly can lead to damage to the packaged goods.
► The outer marking on the packaging states if, for example, the on-load
tap-changer or selector has been packed upright. Never stack these
crates.
► General rule: Do not stack crates above a height of 1.5 m.
► For other crates: Only stack up to 2 equally sized crates on top of one an-
other.
The packaging is suitable to ensure undamaged and fully functional means
of transportation in compliance with local transportation laws and regula-
tions.
The packaged goods are packed in a sturdy crate. This crate ensures that,
when in the intended transportation position, the packaged goods are stabi-
lized to prevent impermissible changes in position, and that none of the parts
touch the loading surface of the means of transport or touch the ground after
unloading.
Sealed packaging surrounds the packaged goods with plastic foil on all
sides. The packaged goods are protected from humidity using a desiccant.
The plastic foil was bonded after the desiccant is added.
