designation: Induction Gx
3 Transport and storage
3.1 Transport
Use suitable packaging to prevent damage to the product. Dynamic and static forces, vibrations
and shocks must be avoided by the packaging. The induction components and systems are
designed for the static operation.
It is not allowed to change the product assembly e.g., positions of inductors
or cable routings within the product transport. If induction components are mounted in an appliance
of a third party, it’s their responsibility to avoid any transport damages of the product in the new
constellation. Induction systems are not designed for a free-swinging storage.
A double or more stacking with the same product or with another pallet is not allowed.
Have a transport temperature between -25 °C – +70 °C with maximum 85 % relative humidity at
38 °C. This temperature range is limited to a short-term period for the transport.
A condensation of the induction product must be avoided.
The following transport tests are considered for the product itself:
– IEC 60068-2-31
– IEC 60068-2-6
3.2 Storage
Comply with the following storage conditions:
– Have a storage temperature between 0 – 45 °C. Recommended is 10 – 25 °C with 50 – 60 %
humidity for a storage with initial packaging.
– Store dry in a closed room. The packaging of the induction is designed for a transport with
maximum 85 % relative humidity at 38 °C for a short-term period.
– Have a protection against corrosion and pollution. E.G.O. recommends storing in appropriate
containers for electrical equipment to protect the induction particularly from corrosion and dirt.
– A block storage by stacking pallets on top of each other is not allowed.
Gx needs to be in the valid temperature operating range before handling. A condensate formation is
not allowed. The relative humidity must not exceed 93 % (T<40 °C).
