2 Transport and Installation
2.1 Transporting Equipment
The shakers and especially the incubation shaking
cabinets are heavy. Use only suitable transportation and
lifting tools when moving or setting up units.
Make sure clearances are sufficient along the transport
route and that the combined weight of lifting and
transportation tools does not exceed the maximum load
permitted for the floor or ground.
Use only qualified personnel to transport the equipment.
Make sure personnel is protected from injury during
transport.
Do not remove any transport protection before the
equipment has been transported to the site of
installation.
2.2 Requirements at the site of installation
1. The floor or the laboratory bench where the equipment
is to be installed must be able to support the weight of
the fully equipped units and systems.
2. The installation place should be sufficiently dimensioned
and feature a non-slip surface.
3. The equipment has to be easily accessible for operation,
maintenance, and service tasks.
4. The shakers and the incubation shaking cabinets may
transmit vibrations to the installation surface especially
when carrying a heavy load. For this reason, install the
shakers so that surrounding equipment is not affected.
5. The power supply must match the rating indicated on
the type plate and must be grounded correctly.
Use a level to align the equipment after setting it up!
Before stacking equipment (max. 3 units), make sure
that the bottom most device is properly aligned
horizontally!
