10 Rockwell Automation Publication 7000-IN008D-EN-P - August 2019
Chapter 1 Receiving and Storing Procedures
• Keep the drive bolted to the wooden shipping skid to minimize the
possibility of it tipping. Do not remove the wood skid and top lifting angle
until the drive is at the installation area. If the drive is crated, the crate
includes a pair of lifting angles. Reinstall both lifting angles on top of drive.
High-power air-cooled drives and converter sections do not have wood
skids or top lifting angles but have permanently-attached steel frame bases.
Shipping Details
Receiving the Drive
When your drive arrives, remove the packing and check for damage that can
occur during shipping. Report any damage immediately to your carrier’s claims
office as soon as possible after receiving the drive. Rockwell Automation offers
reasonable assistance to resolve damage claims.
Each MV variable speed drive has a shock indicator installed on the outside of the
converter cabinet. The shock indicator shows black in the chevron shaped area if
the drive experienced sufficient shock during transit.
