Unpacking and Inspection

Once the equipment is received, inspect the exterior of the shipping carton for any signs of damage. Report any damage and file a claim with the shipping company immediately.

In addition, at least two “Tip-n-Tell” or “TiltWatch” labels are mounted on the exterior of the shipping carton. Inspect these labels carefully before accepting the shipment. Any sign that the package has been mishandled during transit may indicate that the compressor may be damaged due to oil migration within the system. This could cause the unit to overheat and ultimately fail after a short period of operation. The compressor must be returned to the factory for service.

Report the mishandling of the package and file a damage claim with the shipping company immediately. Failure to do so will void the warranty on the compressor. Please also contact Trillium US Inc. Inc. Technical Support using the contact information found in Section 2.2.

Remove the straps and packaging materials from the compressor container, then lift or roll the unit out of the container carefully. Inspect the exterior, if any damage is observed, inform the shipping company and Trillium US Inc. Inc. Keep the original packaging materials in case the unit needs to be returned to the factory for service.

Most shipping companies have a certain grace period for reporting damages due to shipping in order to process the insurance information in a timely manner. Therefore it is highly recommended that the shipping container be opened and the unit inspected immediately whether or not it will be put into operation right away. Tip and Tells are present on the external packaging as well on the compressor interior as shown in

and

Caution: When transporting or storing the compressor unit, make certain it is not tilted by more than 45 degrees from horizontal level to avoid potential oil migration damage to the compressor.
