2. HANDLING AND STORAGE
DynAmp products are engineered and manufactured for use in industrial environments.
However, they contain sensitive electronic and mechanical components which may be
damaged and fail if not handled and stored properly. All products must be handled and
stored with the same care as any precision measurement instrument. Severe bumps or
jolts may damage internal parts and cause malfunction or premature failure. DynAmp
products are designed and assembled with conformal coating, shock mounting, and
environmental seals, when appropriate or when specified. However, this protection
requires that the product must be properly installed and operational before the protection is
fully functional. Therefore, adequate protection from humidity, shock, and temperature
must be provided during handling and storage prior to installation.
The handling and storage of equipment must be sufficient to meet the storage temperature
and humidity specifications of the product and to prevent any condensation or contact with
water or any other liquid. The storage location and container or crate must provide
adequate protection from precipitation (rain, snow, ice) and direct water contact. Adequate
shelter must be provided to prevent the accumulation of precipitation (rain, snow, ice) and
water which can lead to the deterioration or failure of shipping containers or crates and
cause water ingress. Storage in coastal or industrial areas subject to salt-laden or
corrosive air or areas of wind-driven sand or other abrasive dust must be adequate to
prevent the deterioration or failure of shipping containers or crates and cause ingress.
Frequent inspection of storage areas and storage containers or crates is required to
ensure proper storage conditions are being maintained.
If the shipping container or crate is opened and/or the equipment is removed for inspection
prior to installation, the equipment must be repackaged in the original undamaged
container or crate in the same manner as it was shipped to prevent environmental damage
or placed in a storage location that meets the required environmental and storage
conditions.
General product storage temperature and humidity requirements:
Storage Temperature:
-40 to 70°C
-40 to 158°F

DynAmp, LLC does not assume liability for the customer’s failure to comply with handling
and storage requirements.
