Checking the shipping and handling indicators prior to commissioning
It is essential to check the shipping and handling indicators prior to commissioning the
converter.
Figure 3-5
The tilt indicator provides immediate visible evidence of whether the cabinet units have been
transported and stored upright. When the unit is tipped, blue-colored quartz sand begins to
flow into the arrow-shaped indicator area. The tilt indicator has tripped when the blue color
extends beyond the middle line of the arrowhead.
Figure 3-6
The shock indicator shows if an acceleration has exceeded 98.1 m/s
the direction of acceleration. The black color of the arrows indicates that an impermissible
shock load has occurred in the direction of the arrow.
Risk of death due to device damage when shock or tilt indicators are tripped
When shock or tilt indicators have been tripped, safe operation of the device is not
guaranteed.
Death, serious injury, and property damage can result.
