Introduction
MTS Exceed Electromechanical Material Test Systems are designed to operate in
a laboratory or light industry environment. To get the maximum intended use of
the system, it is recommended that careful consideration be given to planning its
installation. This includes:
•
The types of testing that will be performed.
•
The building facilities requirements for power, cooling water, air
conditioning, ceiling height, floor loading, and so on.
•
Contract services, such as riggers and moving equipment, to transport the
system components within the facility.
•
Support personnel that might be required during installation of the system.
In addition to the test system requirements, each test application also has its own
requirements. Therefore, it is recommended that overall planning be considered
as early as possible. Preparation for and setup of the major system components
are your responsibility. This guide will help answer most of your questions about
the physical characteristics and requirements of your system.
