Unloading and Handling

2.0UNLOADING AND HANDLING

With the exception of the 500kVA unit with 6-pulse rectifier, UPS modules are shipped in split cabi- nets to allow ease of handling. Because the weight distribution in the cabinets is uneven, use extreme care during handling and transport. Your installation may also include battery cabinets and a System Control Cabinet.

NOTE

It is very important that the shipping split sections are matched up to their proper mates, as identified by the shipping split labels.

Integrated SCC/Switchgear will also be shipped in sections, and require proper match up of sections, as identified by labels and drawings.

! WARNING

Exercise extreme care when handling UPS cabinets to avoid equipment damage or injury to personnel. The UPS module weight ranges from 5710 to 12,005 lbs. (2590 to 5445kg). Battery cabinets weigh from 3060 to 5300 lbs. (1388 to 2404kg).

Locate center of gravity symbols before handling cabinet. Test lift and balance the cabinet before transporting. Maintain minimum tilt from vertical at all times.

Slots at the base of the modules and battery cabinets are intended for forklift use. Base slots will support the unit only if the forks are completely beneath the unit.

System Control Cabinets (SCCs)/Switchgear have holes intended for rigging bars or chains (see your submittal package for switchgear drawings). Prevent chains or cables from contacting cabinet by using spreader bar and adequate padding.

To reduce the possibility of shipping damage, cabinets are shored with 2-by-4 bracing, secured with screw-type nails. This shoring must be carefully removed prior to unloading.

! CAUTION

Extreme care is necessary when removing shoring braces. Do not strike cabinet with hammers or other tools.
