178 cm (70.0 in.). For information about the weight and height, see
“Weight-and-height-reduced shipping feature” on page 24.
Important: The rack is more easily moved when on a pallet, and the rack
casters might damage floors and carpets; therefore, roll the rack into position
on its own casters only when necessary.
4. Ensure that there is a clear and level path from the truck to the building
entrance. Ensure that there are no steps from the truck to the installation site.
5. Ensure that the loading ramp at your site does not exceed an angle of 12.5
degrees, as shown in the following figure.
A ramp with a maximum angle of 12.5 degrees must not be higher than 6.6 cm
(2.6 inches) vertically for each 30.5 cm (12 in.) of horizontal length.
Shipment weights and dimensions
To help you plan for the delivery of the IBM XIV Storage System, ensure that the
loading dock and receiving area can support the weight and dimensions of the
packaged XIV shipments.
For models 281x-114, 281x-214, and 281x-314, at least one shipping container is
delivered for each XIV system that you order. The container is a wooden pallet
that is covered by a corrugated fiberboard (cardboard). This container contains the
XIV system rack with components installed, and other items such as, power cords,
CDs and printed pubs, and other features or peripherals for your model.
Additional containers are delivered for optional features such as the ruggedized
rack, rear-door heat exchanger.
Delivery clearance requirements
The clearance measurements (height x width x depth) that are required for delivery
through all doors and elevators are listed in the following table. These
measurements are for the typical height of the pallet. The measurements do not
include more clearance that is needed to raise the pallet on a pallet jack for
movement.
