Appendix C - Carrying Case
The contents of this appendix are applicable to Trillium Compact, model numbers
TC120-SV1, TC20-SV1 (surface vault).
C.1 Transporting a Trillium Compact in the Carrying Case
The recommended method for transporting your Trillium Compact is in its specially designed
Carrying Case / Insulating Cover (Nanometrics part number 16862). This enclosure functions
as both a carrying case for transporting your Trillium Compact and as an insulating cover at
the installation site.
When used as a carrying case (see Figure C-1), this enclosure can house the seismometer, a 5 m
ultra-flexible cable (Nanometrics part numbers 16777-5M or 16865-5M) or a foam plug
(included with carrying case), and a leveling cradle (Nanometrics part number 16863). The case
provides cushioning protection and makes transport of the Trillium Compact and its
accessories easy with its compact design and handle.
To properly pack your carrying case:
1. Lower the Trillium Compact feet first into the case.
2. Tightly coil the cable (the case will fit up to a 5 m cable) and lower it into the case so that
it is resting on top of the Trillium Compact.
-OR-
If you are not packing a cable in the case, insert the foam plug or other cushioning
material that will prevent movement of the Trillium Compact and leveling cradle during
transport.
3. Firmly fit the feet of the leveling cradle into the corresponding slits in the foam of the
lid.
4. Place the lid on the case and secure it with the latches.
