Transport and handling

2.2.  Transport using a crane

For transport using a crane, the gas tank must be robust 

enough for lifting the special distribution transformer by 

means of the lifting eye bolts. The following indications 

must be taken into account when lifting the special 

distribution transformer:

The slings on the eye bolts must form a minimum angle of 

60º with the special distribution transformer’s horizontal.

The slings must not rub or damage the bushings or other 

accessories of the special distribution transformer.

Danger of death by crushing and damage to 

the special distribution transformer or to the 

installation.

•  

Use the eye bolts in the special distribution 

transformer cover to lift it with a crane, maintaining a 

horizontal position at all times.

•  If the weight of the special distribution transformer 

requires the lifting eye bolts to be located in the tank, 

they will be duly identifi ed with a diff erent colour.

•  Avoid causing damage to the elements on the special 

distribution transformer cover. Use proper hooks to 

achieve a perfectly vertical elevation.

•  

Never

 use the cooling elements of the special 

distribution transformer, such as fi ns or radiators, as 

lifting elements. 

Risk

 of severe injury and damage to 

the machine.

Figure 2.2. 

Elevation using a crane

2.3.  Transport on rollers

Risk of machinery breakage

•  Do not use the cooling fi ns of the special distribution 

transformer as a support point.

In order to move the special distribution transformer 

by means of its rollers, lean a lever against the special 

distribution transformer carriage.
