In the event that the original packing material is unavailable, observe this basic procedure. It applies to all cabinets,
large or small units, and mechanical items.
Note that a dedicated procedure applies for circuit board handling and packaging.
Any units that requires protection against extreme temperatures are identified as such in the applicable documentation. The
box used to transport and store such units are clearly marked, for example:
Must not be transported or stored in temperatures below -5 °C.
Other temperature limits may be used if applicable.
If a unit needs temperature protection, the box to be used for storage and transportation must be lined on all walls, base
and lid, using minimum 5 cm thick polyurethane or polystyrene foam.
Most system units can normally be stored in temperatures between -30° C and +70° C. Refer to the relevant technical specifications
for details.
NoteUnless otherwise specified, transducers and hydrophones must not be stored in temperatures below −10°C and above +50°C.
