 5 Packaging, transport and storage

5.1 Purpose
The packaging is designed to protect the packaged product during transport,
loading, unloading and during periods of storage in such a way that no detri-
mental changes occur. The packaging must protect the goods against per-
mitted transport stresses such as vibration, knocks and moisture (rain, snow,
condensation).
The packaging also prevents the packaged goods from moving impermissi-
bly within the packaging.

5.2 Suitability, structure and production

The goods are packaged in a sturdy cardboard box or solid wooden crate.
These ensure that the shipment is secure when in the intended transporta-
tion position and that none of its parts touch the loading surface of the
means of transport or touch the ground after unloading.
Inlays inside the box or crate stabilize the goods, preventing impermissible
changes of position and protecting them from vibration.

5.3 Markings
The packaging bears a signature with instructions for safe transport and cor-
rect storage. The following symbols apply to the shipment of non-hazardous
goods. Adherence to these symbols is mandatory.

Protect against Top Fragile Attach lifting Center of mass

moisture gear here
Table 4: Shipping pictograms

5.4 Transportation, receipt and handling of shipments

In addition to vibrations, jolts must also be expected during transportation. In
order to prevent possible damage, avoid dropping, tipping, knocking over
and colliding with the product.
Should the packaging tip over or fall, damage is to be expected regardless of
the weight.

5972470/03 EN 27
5 Packaging, transport and storage

Every delivered shipment must be checked for the following by the recipient
before acceptance (acknowledgment of receipt):
▪ Completeness based on the delivery slip
▪ External damage of any type.
The checks must take place after unloading when the cartons or transport
container can be accessed from all sides.

Visible damage
If external transport damage is found upon receipt of the shipment, proceed
as follows:
▪ Immediately record the transport damage found in the shipping docu-
ments and have this countersigned by the carrier.
▪ In the event of severe damage, total loss or high damage costs, immedi-
ately notify the manufacturer's sales department and the relevant insur-
ance company.
▪ After identifying damage, do not modify the condition of the shipment fur-
ther and retain the packaging material until an inspection decision has
been made by the transport company or the insurance company.
▪ Record the details of the damage immediately on site together with the
carrier involved. This is essential for any claim for damages.
▪ If possible, photograph damage to packaging and packaged goods. This
also applies to signs of corrosion on the packaged goods due to moisture
inside the packaging (rain, snow, condensation).
▪ Be absolutely sure to also check the sealed packaging.

Hidden damage
When damage is not determined until unpacking after receipt of the ship-
ment (hidden damage), proceed as follows:
▪ Make the party responsible for the damage liable as soon as possible by
telephone and in writing, and prepare a damage report.
▪ Observe the time periods applicable to such actions in the respective
country. Inquire about these in good time.
With hidden damage, it is very hard to make the transportation company (or
other responsible party) liable. Any insurance claims for such damage can
only be successful if relevant provisions are expressly included in the insur-
ance terms and conditions.

28 5972470/03 EN
 5 Packaging, transport and storage

5.5 Storage of shipments

When selecting and setting up the storage location, ensure the following:
▪ Store the product and accessories in the original packaging until installa-
tion.

Damage to the device!
Electrostatic discharge can lead to damage to the device.
► Take precautionary measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic
charges on work surfaces and personnel.

Avoid installing components of different versions

There are different versions of the oil level indicator, depending on various
factors (e.g. design of the float gauge connection, flange design, display
range).

The gauge part and transmitter part are adjusted to one an-
other at the factory and have identical serial numbers. Only at-
tach transmitter parts and gauge parts together that have iden-
tical serial numbers.

Validity of the measured value stored in the INPUT register

addresses 1…3:
It can be seen via the DISC register with address 4 (Boolean)
whether the measured value is invalid (0) or valid (1).
We strongly recommend evaluating this register in parallel to
the measured value query.

Device status:
The INPUT register with address 0 indicates the device status
(0: the device self-diagnostic could not find any errors). We
recommend querying the device status either parallel to the
measured values or when needed (e.g. during troubleshoot-
ing, fault elimination). For details, see Fault elimination.
