Shipping a PS-150-120


 

First time shipping this power supply so I thought I'd solicit suggestions.
?
For example, I know to separate a Collins 516F-2 from its cabinet before shipping - any similar caveats here?
?
I am not asking for generic help with packaging - I've shipped delicate radio equipment across the globe successfully.? Rather, I seek specific product-related advise, if any.
?
Thanks, & 73,
Jeff

Get a hard Pelican case w/foam from Amazon and use it over and over again.?

Dave, I don¡¯t think he needs that, from his question.

Perhaps that unit should have a big transformer removed or supported somehow due to the likely hood of it being on its side. Or perhaps some parts of the front should not have any pressure on them. I¡¯m just shooting from the hip, but have seen unfortunate results. Now? to those knowing the PS-150-120

Jeff,

Use a lot of foam padding and double box. Also, remove the rubber feet for shipping.

Mike

Thanks for your thoughts.?

As a collector and one that restores and ship equip. Ex: Ps2000 I¡¯m much less concerned about the transformer to chassis connection then the ps still in the cabinet scenario. It¡¯s my personnel preference after decades of shipping equipment.? No PITA cardboard, bubble wrap, foam chips, etc.?
