Transport
3. Transport
Despite the robust design and construction of the
transformers manufactured by
Ormazabal
, their integrity
depends critically on the safety and protection measures
taken during transport and unloading. The transformer
can be severely damaged in these operations if shaking,
vibrations, impacts or knocks above normal for goods of
these dimensions and weight occur.
3.1. Preparing the load for transport
The transformer must be fixed by means of slings, chains
and other elements suitable for the mass of the transformer,
as shown on its nameplate.
The protection tools and equipment provided or
recommended by
Ormazabal
(
according to the agreement
with the customer
), such as anti-vibration mounts and
suitable elements for pulling (braces) or fastening the load,
must be used for transport.
The transformer has specially designed lashing/fastening
elements to secure it during transport/handling operations.
•
Top fastening elements:
when provided, there are
four in total, located on the same structure as the
lifting elements (Figure 3.1) It is essential that chains,
hooks and pulling or lashing elements
NEVER
interfere,
collide or exert force on the cooling fins or radiators.
For this reason, they must be mounted at an angle
that prevents the collisions or interference described.
