16.4.2 SHIPMENT BY TRUCK
The transportation of compressors by truck is the most common system for highway or short distances
where the stresses on the product are reduced. This type of transportation, if made without the necessary
precautions on load steadiness and travel on uneven roads can cause stresses to compressors with
possible damages.
16.4.4 ACCELERATION DURING TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
Maximum allowable rate of deceleration/acceleration: 1g
Generally we advise against the rail transportation because during the shunting, stress to the compressors
from decelerations or acceleration can cause stator deformation or breaking of compressors components.
Rail transportation is allowed only for a full container shipment. LCL (Less Than Container Load) is not
allowed.
For conditional approval of specific cases please contact Embraco Logistics or Technical support team.
16.4.3 ACCEPTABLE COMPRESSOR POSITIONS DURING
TRANSPORTATION OF FINISHED PRODUCT
Compressors allowed transportation position - in upright position.
In case the compressors are lying during the transportation or assembly of
the finished products, oil will enter in the suction tube, causing problematic
brazing of the line tubes and hazardous fumes.
