Transportation requirements:

Mount the PDU in a vertical position in the center of a suitable pallet with minimum dimensions: 1860 x 1450 mm (73.2 in x 57.1 in). The pallet must be suitable for the weight of the PDU. The maximum weight for PDU is 2917 kg (6400 lbs).
Use appropriate means of fixation to mount the PDU to the pallet.
The original shipping pallet in combination with the original transportation brackets can be reused, if in undamaged condition.

DANGER
TIPPING hazard The PDU must be appropriately fixed to the pallet immediately after being placed on the pallet. The fixation hardware must be strong enough to withstand vibrations and shocks during loading, transport, and unloading. Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Perform one of the following:
- Decommission the PDU, OR
- Move the PDU to a new location to install it.
Only for installing the PDU in a new location: Follow the installation manual to install the PDU in the new location. See Installation Procedure for installation overview.
