Packaging, Transport, Handling and Mounting
4.1.1
Packaging
The eTower modules are packaged with protective foam and placed inside a cardboard box.
The box is easily handled by two people.
The eTower is available from Freedom Won in singles or per crate, with a crate containing
12 eTower e5000 modules. For storage or transport, the boxes may be stacked four high.
The crates may be stacked two high.
The eTower boxes and crates must be kept dry.
4.1.2
Transport
Although the eTower incorporates the safe LiFePO4 lithium cell design, it is unfortunately
classified along with all lithium batteries as dangerous goods Class 9 Miscellaneous and UN
3480. When shipped by sea the package must be labelled as such using the correct label (Fig
3.1). The eTower box has this label printed on it already, so this is only required if shipped
inside another crate or packaging. The packaging design must also comply with the
dangerous goods regulations, so should always be transported in its original packaging.
For sea freight and road freight the transporter will require the Safety Data Sheet for the
product, which is available from your distributor or from Freedom Won.
