Unpacking and Repacking
When dispatched from the factory, the equipment is packed in accordance with the guide-
lines laid down in IEC 60255-21.
Unpack and pack them with appropriate care and without using force, using only suitable
tools. Inspect the devices and verify that they are in proper mechanical condition.
Note any further instructions which may be enclosed.
The transport packing may be used in the same way for any further transport. The storage
packing of the individual devices alone is not suitable for transport. If alternative packing is
used, this must also meet the same requirements for transportation as laid down in IEC
60255-21-1 class 2 and IEC 60255-21-2 class 1.
Before you apply voltage to the device for the first time, keep it in its operational room at least
for 2 hours to ensure temperature balance and avoid humidity and condensation.
Storage
SIMEAS devices and their replacement modules must be stored in dry and clean rooms.
Store the device and its replacement modules at temperatures between –25 °C and +55 °C.
The relative humidity must neither cause condensation water nor ice formation.
It is recommended to maintain a restricted temperature range b10 °C and +35 °C
for storage to prevent premature aging of the electrolytic capacitors used for power supply.
In addition it is advisable for extended storage periods to apply an auxiliary voltage to the
device for 1 to 2 days about every 2 years to form the electrolytic capacitors used for power
supply. The same procedure should be used before the device is to be used.
