1.8 Equipment handling
Introduction
This chapter describes how to transport, pack and unpack, clean,
preserve and store electronic, electro-mechanical and mechanical
units supplied by Simrad AS.
The units may be supplied as spare parts, or as parts of a delivery.
Transportation
General specifications
Unless otherwise stated in the accompanying documentation,
electronic, electro-mechanical and mechanical units supplied by
Simrad can be transported using all methods approved for delicate
equipment; e.g. by road, rail, air or sea. The units are to be
transported in accordance with general or specific instructions for
the appropriate unit(s), using pallets, transport cases, or carton
boxes as appropriate.
Note
Special local restrictions concerning air transportation may be
applied to units containing certain types of batteries. The units
should be checked and the regulations investigated by the
packer/shipper before the unit is dispatched.
Local transportation
All local transportation must be carried out according to the same
specifications as for the initial delivery. In general, all units must
be handled with care. The carton or case containing the equipment
must be kept dry at all times, and must be sheltered from the
weather. It must not be subjected to shocks, excessive vibration or
other rough handling.
The carton or case will normally be marked with text or symbols
indicating which way up it is to be placed. Follow any instructions
given and ensure the case is always placed with its “top”
uppermost.
The carton or case must not be used for any purpose for which it
was not intended (e.g. step, table, etc.), and in the absence of other
information, no other cartons or cases must be stacked on top of it.
Lifting
A heavy crate will normally be marked with its weight, and the
weights of other cartons or crates will normally be entered on the
packing list.
•
Always check the weight of a crate before attempting to lift it.
•
Always use lifting apparatus that is certified for the load.
