6.3 Handling
6.3.1 General Handling Information
When moving the Load Bank, please keep the device upright and do not transport
on its side. Use the attached rollers for short distances. If the unit needs to be
lifted, only lift the unit using the handles on the sides or lifting the from the
bottom of the unit. Avoid lifting from the Cam-Lok connections as it will apply
extra pressure to the BUS connectors. Do not insert any lifting tools in the fan
grating. Avoid impact while transporting as well as avoid dropping the unit in
general. While the metal casing is quite strong, avoid dropping anything heavy on
the unit.
6.3.2 After-Operation Handling Information
Because of the nature of the Load Bank’s operation, the unit will be extremely
hot. To prevent burn injury, allow the fans to run for a few minutes without an
applied load at the end of operation. When the unit has cooled, turn the fans off
and move it as necessary.
