2. UNLOAD/UNPACK CRATES

2.1 Unload Crates of iPASOLINK VR 10 and Antenna

Followings show how to treat the iPASOLINK VR 10 crates when arrived:

NOTE: Following is a bad example, showing a crate that is improperly

handled, upside downed and deformed. If a crate has arrived in such
condition, do not accept the crate and its contents.

 Upside down

 Deformed

2-2 Unload/Unpack Crates

Procedure 2-1

1. Place the crate in the appropriate place.

NOTES:

1. Do not pile up crates. Keep it evenly.

2. Ensure not to give any shock to the crates when unloading them.

3. Do not place the crates upside down.

4. Pay attention to labels of care marks.

NOTE: Followings are the handling marks that are usually seen on crates:

Care Marks Description

This end up.

Contents are fragile.

Handle with care, and avoid giving shockes.

Keep the contents dry.

Use no hooks, use hands to carry/move.

2-4 Unload/Unpack Crates

Procedure 2-2 Unload Waveguide Drum

NOTES:

1. HE Waveguides are supplied by the package of crate or as finished

piece (factory assembled). Both ends of each HE Waveguides has
normally been pressurized with the nitrogen gas (or dry air) of
approximately 0.3 kg/cm² at the shipment. Air inlet value (Schrader
Valve, No, 5 Gas Valve) is attached at each both ends as well.

2. The Waveguide can be considered airtight if there is no significant

pressure fall within 12 hours. This test is carried out for each
Waveguide before the shipment. The test can be carried out before or
after the installation as well.

1. Unload the drum (crate of Waveguide) using supports, such as ropes, bridge
plate, etc.

(wider is better, to capture
both flanges of the drum)

NOTE: If possible, use a crane or a fork lift as well for unloading the drum.
i) Secure the one end of the rope firmly on a strong enough attached part,
such as supporting pole on a track.
ii) Wind a rope around the drum (Waveguide Crate) for twice or more.
iii) Snub the other end of the rope around other supporting pole.
iv) Unload the drum (crate) by loosen the rope end to slide the drum on the
bridge plate.

Unload/Unpack Crates 2-5

NOTES:

1. Do not drop the drum.

2. If possible, it is better not to roll the drum. If the drum should be rolled,
keep rolling it straight ahead by adding the equal pressure to both sides
of the drum.
Figure 2-3 If Drum Should be Rolled

This step ends the procedure.

3.2 Install 19-inch Open Rack

Procedure 3-1

1. Locate the place where the 19-inch Open Rack is to be installed, and mark
the area on the floor. Square meters of the area to occupy varies depending
on the base of the 19-inch rack to use.

 Ensure that the post frames are facing their channel side:

Post frames should face their channel

side to make rooms inward.

2. Within the marked area. apply additional markings for bolt holes. Make sure
that the four marked points fit with the holes on the 19-inch Rack base.

 To install the racks side by side, allow at least a 50-millimetre space between the
racks.

 To install the racks back to back, they should be in the air conditioned room, and
allow also at least a 50-millimetre space between the racks.

See below for examples.

3.4.2 Check Dehydrator

Procedure 3-8

1. Disconnect the Dekabon tubes from the dehydrator.

2. Turn on the dehydrator.

 The normal pressure is 8 kPa.
 The pressure will decrease while Dekabon tubes are disconnected. If the
value goes below 4 kPa, the air compressor will automatically start, and an
alarm LED is issued.

3. Connect the Dekabon tubes back in place with dehydrator,

4. Observe the meter gauge.

 The air pressure may start increasing.
 The air compressor will stop when the pressure is back to normal value
(8 pKa).
 If the pressure does not back to normal, check the leakage of the air. If a
leakage is found on the Dekabon tube, replace the tube.
 Check the connection of Dekabon tube at the both ends if it is properly con-
nected and sealed.
 Tighten the connection(s) if any of them are loose.

This step ends the procedure.

NOTES:

1. NEC recommends that FAN-CV Unit be replaced approximately every

three years, regardless of its condition.

2. If a FAN-CV alarm occurs, replace the FAN-CV Unit immediately.

3. If a FAN-CV fails, it should be immediately replaced in order to prevent the

temperature within the chassis from rising. When replacing a FAN-CV, a
new FAN-CV to be mounted should be prepared near by so that the
replacement can quickly be done.

4. The FAN-CV Unit is hot swappable, which allows the replacement without
shutting down the system.

(1) Protect joint of plug and cable by wrapping the vinyl tape around:
For the IF Cable terminated with the L-Shape Plug, it is strongly recommended to wrap
vinyl tape around the joint of the plug and cable. See below:

PLUG BODY 1. From the starting point as shown on the left

photograph, wrap the tape for one to 1.5 times

is recommended.

2. Keep wrapping till the tape reaches midway up the

middle of the plug. See Step 4. below for the
measurements.

3. Pressing the tape by fingers, tightly wrap the tape

around the joint for four or five times more.

4. Referring to the example shown left, check if the

tape is appropriately wrapped.
