The environmental impact of the product life cycle is assessed Like all the apparatus manufactured by us, the HD4 circuit- by the LCA - Life Cycle Assessment procedure, which is also breakers are designed for different installation configurations.
Packing and transport The circuit-breaker is shipped in special packing in the open position with the springs discharged and with absolute pole pressure corresponding with the service value. Each piece of apparatus is protected by a plastic film to prevent any infiltration of water during the loading and unloading stages and to keep the dust off during storage.
If any damage or irregularity is discovered on unpacking, notify ABB (directly or through the agent or supplier) as soon as possible and in any case within five days of receipt. The apparatus is only supplied with the accessories specified at the time of order and confirmed in the order acknowledgement sent by ABB.
Storage In case a storage period is foreseen, on request our Insert hygroscopic substances in the packaging in the workshops will provide a suitable packing to the specified quantity of at least one standard pack per apparatus. storage conditions. Therefore, store in a sheltered, well-ventilated area with a On receipt, the apparatus must be carefully unpacked and dry, non-dusty, non-corrosive atmosphere away from highly checked as described in chapter 2: Checkink on receipt.
Handling Before carrying out any operation, always check that the 36 kV circuit-breakers operating mechanism springs are discharged and that the – Attach the tools (1) to lift and handle the circuit-breaker apparatus is in the open position. (fig. 2c); –...
