Shipping and Unpacking
The Battery Cabinet comes fully assembled and is shipped in an Air Ride Truck to limit vibrational damage. The cabinet will
be shipped upright on a pallet.
CAUTION:
The Cabinet has a high center of gravity (39.2”) – use caution when moving.
Upon arrival follow these steps:
1. Inspect the outside of the cabinet for damage prior to signing for release.
Visible Damage
•
It is the responsibility of the person receiving the shipment to
inventory and fully inspect all materials against the bill of lading
or weigh bill IMMEDIATELY while the carrier representative is still
present. Ensure that all items are accounted for, including number
of skids and quantity of boxes. Also note any visible external
damage that may have occurred during transit. Make all applicable
notations on the delivery receipt before signing and file a damage
report with the carrier.
•
Examine the TILT and SHOCK sensor on the cabinet. Both are just
notifications to show the unit may have been exposed to excessive
forces and that inspection is required to ensure no damage was
done. Units received should be accepted from the shipper, but the
activation must be noted with the shipper at time of acceptance.
2. Remove foam wrap, protectors, and clear plastic over the battery cabinet.
3. There are NO strap downs on the batteries. Everything will remain secure in
place.
4. Perform a visual inspection of the cabinet.
a. Open the door and examine all the batteries/drawers to make sure
everything is still secure and attached.
b. Check seismic brackets to ensure bolts are present and secure
c. Check torque seal markers on batteries
d. Concealed Damage
•
Immediately unpack the system and check for any concealed damage. Check the materials received against
the detailed packing list to verify the quantity and the condition as complete and satisfactory.
•
Note observations of any liquid or crystallized elecotrolyte on the sides of the batteries.
e. Return of Damaged Goods
•
For product returns, please contact a ZincFive support representative to obtain a return material
authorization (RMA).
5. Save the packaging material in the event a return is needed. ZincFive does not
warranty product damage from return shipping unless it is shipped in approved
packaging. Carefully move the cabinet to the install location using necessary fork lift /
pallet jack
a. Remove bolts holding cabinet to pallet
b. Spread forks as wide as possible when lifting.
c. Keep as low as possible to keep center of gravity as low as possible.
d. The cabinet has been designed to be movable while fully loaded with batteries.
NOTES:
•
DO NOT LIFT from the top of the cabinet as it will not support the frame weight.
•
Refer to Appendix A for additional moving details.
