2 Requirements | 2.7 Transport and Storage
2.7 Transport and Storage
The following regulations must be observed before and during transport:
§
Check if there is any moving equipment available on site that can be used to safely transport
the Microscope System to the installation room. In clean-room environments, this check is
mandatory.
§
The Microscope System may only be transported in air-suspended vehicles.
§
Moving parts must be secured during transport to prevent them from slipping or tipping over.
§
Avoid rocking the crates back and forth.
§
Devices for transporting the Microscope System must be rated to handle its full weight and di-
mensions.
§
Note the weight information on the package and on the shipping document.
§
Where possible, the original packaging must be used for shipping or transport.
Fork lift and a
hand pallet truck
For on-site transport and unloading a fork lift and a hand pallet truck are necessary.
§
Ensure all hallways and corners are wide enough to be passed with the hand pallet truck.
§
Please check the location requirements for door and hallway widths.
§
Check the entrance to the building and to the final site for suitable ramps and compliant ele-
vators that can match the weights of the system where necessary.
§
Some components, such as the tables, are large, heavy or bulky and may require extra assis-
tance to get the units into the allocated site.
Maximum shock
resistance
§
Do not drop or bump the boxes during movement or storage. (Any acceleration shall be <10 g.)
§
Evaluate packaging shock and tilting sensors on delivery and after internal transport.
Allowable
temperature
Allowable temperature during on-site storage and transport:
§
Between 10 °C and 30 °C
§
Relative humidity less than 65 %
Info
24 hours before installation
of the Microscope System it is required that the boxes be at
recommended room temperature to avoid ingress of humidity, which is very harmful to optical
paths, and to ensure effective stability of the Microscope System during installation and test-
ing.
