Shipping Weights and Dimensions
The SL8500 library is delivered on pallets that can measure up to 2.5 m (8.25 ft) in
length and weigh up to 481 kg (1060 lb). Ensure there are forklifts or pallet jacks that
can handle these pallets. If moving between floors, verify the elevator can handle these
loads.
Total Pallet Weights
The total weight of the pallets for various library configurations are listed below. If
ordering the optional CAP, increase the total weight by 33 kg (73 lb). CAPs are shipped
on their own pallet. Similarly, if ordering redundant robotics, increase the total weight
by 65 kg (143 lb). Four additional robots are shipped on an additional #10 pallet.
Additional pallets not listed below may be shipped depending on the library features
ordered.
