Packages must not be opened, or their integrity disturbed during the transport.
Packing may only be opened when the equipment has been taken from storage and has
been transported to its intended location of installation, or to connect the anti-condensation
heater, after which the packing must be resealed. Storage preservation measures are
immediately invalidated as soon as the packaging is disturbed.
One shall inspect packages on receipt at the storage warehouse and at regular monthly
intervals during the storage period in regard to external damages. Any visible damage that
may have a consequence to the condition of the contents or integrity of the preservation
must be immediately documented and reported. In case of such an event, the supplier
must be contacted immediately for advice
