Transport and storage

Transport

• Only by qualified personnel
• Only in recyclable original manufacturer's packaging
• Avoid sharp impacts
• Temperature: -40...+70°C, varying no faster than 20K / hour
• Air humidity: relative humidity max. 95%, non-condensing
• The servo drives contain components at risk from electrostatic discharge caused by improper handling.
• Please ensure you are electrostatically discharged before touching the servo drive directly.
• Avoid contact with highly insulating materials (synthetic fibres, plastic film etc.).
• Place the servo drive on a conductive surface.
• If the packaging is damaged check the AX5000 and any accessories for visible damage. Inform the transport company and, if necessary, the manufacturer.

Packaging

• Recyclable carton with inserts
• Dimensions:
   AX5000 (H x W x D) 348 x 324 x 175 mm
  Identification: Device name plate on the outside of the carton

Storage

• The AX5000 and its accessories must not be stored outdoors. The storage space must be adequately ventilated and dry.
• The devices must be stored in the recyclable original manufacturer's packaging.
• The servo drives contain components at risk from electrostatic discharge caused by improper handling.
• Please ensure you are electrostatically discharged before touching the servo drive directly.
• Avoid contact with highly insulating materials (synthetic fibres, plastic film etc.).
• Place the servo drive on a conductive surface.
• Max. stack height 8 cartons
• Storage temperature: - 40...+ 55° C, varying no faster than 20 K / hour
• Atmospheric humidity: relative humidity max. 95%, non-condensing
• Duration of storage:
• < 5 years: without limitation
• > 5 years: The dielectric (an oxidation layer with a thickness of approx. 1 µ) in the DC link capacitors degrades over time, and the capacitors lose their forming.

forming.
Prior to commissioning of the servo drive the capacitors must be reformed. Release all electrical connections and feed the servo drive for about 30 minutes with 230 V_AC (single-phase) at terminals L1/L2 or L2/L3.
