8. Unpacking the System
Follow the high-level steps below to unpack the KrosFlo System:
1. Check and confirm that all boxes have been received. The wooden crate contains the
System.
2. Place the forklift blades under the crate in a centered position, and transport the System
close to its intended operating location.
3. Unscrew and remove the front panel (the panel with the ramp built-in).
4. Safely set that panel down, close to the crate. This panel will act as a ramp.
5. Unscrew and remove three reinforcing bars from the crate.
6. Unlock the System two front wheels.
7. Using at least two people, carefully pull the System out the crate and move it off the ramp.
8. Unwrap the System.
9. Visually inspect for any possible shipping damages. If found, notify Repligen immediately.
10. Extend the leveling feet and adjust them until the System is properly leveled.
11. Check the rigidity and tightness of components to their supports, ensuring vibration during
shipping did not loosen them.
Note:
• Loose components such as auxiliary pumps, back pressure valves, flow meters, and other
miscellaneous components are packed separately in several carton boxes.
• Open all the boxes and check if all components are received.
WARNING – Refer to section 3 for complete Safety Precautions.
The KrosFlo System is intended to be unpacked and installed by trained service personnel only.
Do not attempt to lift the System. The System should only be moved by carefully rolling the System on its
casters. The System shipping crate includes an integral ramp that allows the System to be rolled out of the
crate. Be sure to set the brake on each caster to prevent unintended motion.
