Transport and unpacking

The specified storage conditions must be adhered to (see chapter 8 Technical data).

Despite the robust design of the unit, the components are sensitive to strong vibrations and impacts. During transport the device must therefore be protected from mechanical stress. Appropriate packaging of the control panel, in particular the original packaging, can improve the shock resistance during transport.

Notice

Hardware damage due to condensation

Unfavorable weather conditions during transport can cause damage to the device.

  • Protect the device against moisture (condensation) during transport in cold weather or in case of extreme temperature fluctuations.
  • Do not put the device into operation until it has slowly adjusted to the room temperature.
  • Should condensation occur, wait for about 12 hours before switching the device on.

Unpacking

Proceed as follows to unpack the device:

  1. Check the packaging for transport damage.
  2. Remove packaging.
  3. Keep the packaging for possible future transport.
  4. Check your delivery for completeness by comparing it with your order.
  5. Check the contents for visible shipping damage.
  6. In case of discrepancies between the package contents and the order, or in case of transport damage, please inform Beckhoff Service (see Chapter 10.1 Service and Support).
