During handling, take great care not to
stress the insulating parts of the apparatus
and the terminals of the contactor.
Any operation carried out on the contactor
must be done without the presence of
voltage and with the main protection device
open: danger of electrocution and/or severe
burns.
Make sure that operations are carried out
with the main and auxiliary power off.
On receipt, immediately check integrity of the packing and the
colour of the “SHOCKWATCH” indicator (Fig. 1) placed on it.
If the “SHOCKWATCH” impact indicator is WHITE, it means
that the packing has not received any notable shocks during
transport. Open the packing, remove the contactor as
indicated below, and check the state of the apparatus and
its correspondence with the nameplate data (see fig. 2) with
what is specified in the accompanying shipping note and in
the order confirmation sent by ABB.
If the “SHOCKWATCH” impact indicator is RED, follow the
instructions indicated on the plate.
Opening the packing does not damage its components and it
can therefore be re-instated using the original material.
The contactor is shipped in special packing, in the open
position.
Each piece of apparatus is protected by a plastic cover
to prevent any infiltration of water during the loading and
unloading stages and to keep the dust off during storage.
To remove the contactor from the packing, proceed as
follows:
– open the plastic bag
– remove the contactor, avoiding any stress to the functional
insulating parts and the terminals of the apparatus.
– use the special lifting plates for the withdrawable version
– check the rating plate characteristics to make sure that the
performances are suitable for the destined application and
that they are those indicated in the order confirmation.
Should any damage or irregularity be noted in the supply
on unpacking, notify ABB (directly or through the agent or
supplier) as soon as possible and in any case within five days
of receipt.
The apparatus is only supplied with the accessories specified
at the time of ordering and validated in the order confirmation
sent by ABB.
The accompanying documents inserted in the shipping
