3.3 Packaging, transport and storage
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its
capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test
based on ISO 4180.
The outer packaging of standard instruments consists of environ-
ment-friendly, recyclable cardboard. In addition, PE foam or PE foil is
also used. Dispose of the packaging material via specialised recycling
companies.
For transport, the source holder is fixed on a transport plate of wood
and protected by a foam packaging.
Information:
The foam packaging can be disposed of in the standard household
waste.
Transport must be carried out under consideration of the notes on the
transport packaging. Nonobservance of these instructions can cause
damage to the device.
According to the IATA regulations, the source container serves
adequately as type A packaging for the sources. For transport, the
source container is fixed on a transport plate and protected by foam
packaging.
