Transport
3. Transport
Despite the robust design and construction of the
transformers manufactured by
Ormazabal
, their integrity
depends critically on the safety and protection measures
taken during transport and unloading. The transformer
may be severely damaged in these operations if any bangs,
vibrations, impacts or shocks above normal for goods with
such dimensions and weight occur.
3.1. Preparing the load for transport
The transformer must be fixed using slings, chains and
other elements suitable for the weight of the transformer,
as shown on its name plate.
The protection tools and equipment provided or
recommended by
Ormazabal
(according to the agreement
with the customer), such as anti-vibration brackets and
elements for pulling (bracing) or securing the load, must be
used for transport.
The transformer has specially designed lashing/fastening
elements to secure it during transport/handling operations.
•
Top fastening elements:
if fitted, there are normally
four of them, and they are located in the same structure
as the lifting elements (Figure 3.1). It is essential that
chains, hooks and pulling or lashing elements
NEVER
interfere, collide or exert force on cooling fins or
radiators. For this reason, they must be mounted at
such an angle as to prevent the described collisions or
interference.
