Alternators will be packed for shipment in a manner suitable to
their mode of transport and final destination.
Prior to handling goods, please ensure that lifting equipment is of
sufficient capacity. Under lifting conditions machinery should be
elevated to a minimal distance from the ground.
When lifting or moving goods by forklift apparatus, care should be
taken to ensure that forks are correctly positioned to prevent slip-
ping or falling of pallet or crate.
Both packed and unpacked alternators shall be stored in a cool
and dry room, and shall never be exposed to the inclemency of
the weather.
With regard to single bearing alternators (form MD35) please en-
sure that the rotor fixing clamps is in place. Failure to do so may
lead to slippage or assembly.
When installing the alternators, always lift them by using their
eyebolts (table 25 pag 44).
IMPORTANT :
AFTER PROLONGER STORAGE OR IF THE MACHINES
SHOW
SIGNS
OF
CONDENSATION,
SHOULD BE SUBJECTED TO INSULATION TESTS PRIOR
TO OPERATING.
THE INSULATION TEST SHALL BE MADE BY SKILLED PER-
SONNEL.
BEFORE CARRYING OUT THE TEST, THE VOLTAGE REGU-
LATOR MUST BE DISCONNECTED; IF THE TEST RESULTS
ARE TOO LOW (LOWER THAN 1 MΩ)(EN60204-1) THE AL-
TERNATOR MUST BE DRIED IN AN OVEN AT 50-60°C.
