5 PRESERVATION REQUIREMENTS for shipping
5.1
Corrosion protection
Due to the long transport and storage period, all sensitive equipment - in addition to
corrosion protection applied to the goods by the manufacturer - must be protected from
corrosion. For the preservation for packing and shipping follow the instruction given in
this document. The processing requirements for the relevant corrosion protection agent
must be met under all circumstances.
In case that no special instructions are applicable, the following has to be adhered for
packing of goods:
Materials, which are sensitive for corrosion due to their design and properties, have to be
shrink-wrapped into film sheeting. The minimum thickness of the film is 0.2 mm.
When selecting the film (polyethylene or aluminum compound sheeting), its barrier
properties against water together with the transport and storage time have to be taken
into consideration (see also item 15.2.2 for more detailed information).
(According VN1577-1 paragraph 5.2.1, attached to this document at the end for
reference).
Note: For transport and storage time of 12 month, add a quantity of moisture
absorbent (silica gel) to the packed item which is sufficient to keep the relative humidity
within the barrier sheeting below the value of 50 % for the entire duration of transport and
storage (calculated according to DIN 55 474 HPE Standard), see also item 5.2 and 5.3
below.
The use of hygroscopic filler and cushioning means (e.g. wood shavings, hay, straw,
paper) for filling empty gaps and cushioning purposes is not permitted.
The required preservation conditions for the various turbine - generator - governor and
BOP equipment are given below and have to be applied to the individual components.
This information is based on the VSN 1576-1 Preservation and Storage, which is
attached to this document at the end for reference.

sections, formed pipes, scaffolding, etc.
Goods class GK 2
Cable on cable drums.
Goods class GK 3
Shock and corrosion-resistant, heavy, bulky materials.
Framework parts, walkways, containers with exterior elements, machined piping, support
structures, parts with cooling ribs, robust machines, thin-walled sheet-metal parts (pans,
wire pans, vats), equipment, etc. which are largely insensitive to physical and chemical
influences (UV radiation, salt water, etc.), fluids and bulk goods in barrels or other
containers, etc.
Goods class GK 4
Corrosion-resistant materials requiring physical protection or cannot be classified in
goods class GK 3 due to their size (small parts).
Non-hygroscopic insulating material, plastic, coated steel parts, etc.
Goods class GK 5
Corrosion-sensitive materials that require physical protection.
Machine elements (wicket gates, couplings, axles, shafts, etc.), fastening elements
(screws, wedges, springs, bolts, etc.),
Other structural parts (flanges, brackets, etc.), simplest and insensitive parts of general
mechanics, refractory materials, etc.
Goods class GK 6
Materials that require physical and chemical protection.
Shafts, trunnions, parts with ultra fine machining, parts of general mechanics such as

11.2.1 Instructions for shrink-wrapping
A special PE shrink-wrap foil must be used so that machine parts can be shrink-wrapped.
The foil is placed on the object to be packed and stapled to the supporting wood or pallet,
if any. Then the shrink-wrap foil is evenly heated by means of a gas flame or electrical
heater. Care must be taken that the heater is not held in one place for too long, but
traced over the foil in coating movements (see photos below).
Heating softens the plastic which clings to the object to be shrink-wrapped. After cooling,
the foil tightly clings to the packed good and has significantly more strength than in the
original condition. If holes occur during the shrinking process, they must be closed by
means of adhesive tape.

11.11.1 Crate and cover design
According to packing category VK 8.
11.11.2 Goods
The goods are to be shrink-wrapped in aluminum foil. Edges or projecting parts must be
padded adequately. Distance between foil and crate wall 30 - 50 mm. Direct contact of
the aluminum foil with the crate floor must be avoided (install air cushion foil, foam
material, etc.).
11.11.3 After processing
After processing of the foil, the enclosed air must be exhausted (vacuum approx. 6 mbar)
and a leakage test to be carried out. For absorption of humidity, desiccants of sufficient
quantity (silica gel, etc.) must be added, and/or suitable measures must be taken so that
a corrosion preventing room climate is created. In order to prevent contact corrosion,
the desiccant must be attached in such a manner that direct contact to the packed good
is not possible. The desiccant packs must be guaranteed to be dustproof and so stable
that they will not open under any circumstances.
11.11.4 Packed goods
The packed goods must be secured in such a manner inside the crate against horizontal
forces that may occur (tilting, marshaling shock, impact, etc.) that such loads are
withstood without damage. They may be secured by bolting to the skids and/or the floor,
fixing to the floor by means of frames, padding between the device and crate wall, etc.
11.11.5 Goods that may vibrate
Goods that may vibrate must be secured in such a manner (using rubber-metal
connection, spring elements, etc.), that the mass and exciting forces cannot reinforce
each other and resulting damage is prevented.

15 Packing and shipping procedure
Machine parts and other components with nozzles, or openings have to be plugged with
suitable fixed plastic cups or wooden disks. Cable passing holes for terminal boards of
the electric motors shall be sealed with plastic cups.
The material shall be fixed to the case bottom beams using either bolts or the rods or by
other adequate stirrups.
All valves shall be plugged with suitable fixed plastic cups or wooden disks.
The cases shall be braced and reinforced to withstand any load (static or dynamic) likely
to occur during transportation by rail, road or ship (rail: 4g, road: 1.2g, ship: 1.1g) :
For detailed information see paragraph 13.2 Load assumption.
Measures shall be taken to prevent the item from shifting within the packed unit, i.e.
screwing together, bolting to the bottom of the case, etc.
Exclusively wood of quality class II / III (pine/spruce) according to DIN 40/4 part 1 and 2
may be used for the production of cases. The boards for the outer surfaces must have a
thickness between 24 and 30 mm, depending on the type, dimensions and weight of the
goods to be packed. The boards have to be butt joined and nailed. One of the crucial
criteria of the case design is their capability to be stacked, i.e. sufficient internal bracing
using squared timber and diagonal struts have to be provided.
The case has to be provided with skids and sub-skids (for the attachment of the lifting
cable/ropes). Number and thickness of the skids must match the total weight, the length
and width of the packed item. For gross weights above 5 tons, the sling points
(bottom/side and side/cover) have to be reinforced by additional angled sheet steel (at
least 3mm thick) in order to prevent the cables/ropes from being constricted. For cases
having an overall weight of 1,000kg and above, the front timbers have to be permanently
bolted to the case skids.
The packed item has to be protected against any displacement by appropriate measures
(screw connection with each other, bolted down to the case bottom, etc.).
The internal case walls have to be lined with barrier sheeting (e.g. jute cardboard or
tarred brown cardboard).

The case cover hast to be prepared such to prevent any ingress of water.
For this reason, the case cover produced has to be lined with polyethylene or aluminum
compound film.
Hold the lining in place by hard board, plywood or plastic boards (nailed against) to
prevent the formation of water pockets (as shown in the picture below).
Never store ready-made cases unprotected in open air. If sheltered or roofed cover
storage place is not available, they have to be covered by tarpaulin.

All wood used (crates, pallets, dunnage bars, etc.) must be treated according to IPPC
Standard and marked accordingly.
Associated standards
16.1.1 ISPM 15 GUIDELINES FOR REGULATING WOOD PACKAGING MATERIAL
Many countries have put quarantine regulations in place to protect their native forests
from the introduction of wood pests. In order to prevent the proliferation of differing import
regulations, the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) Secretariat, part of the
Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, has issued ISPM 15
(International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures) "Guidelines for Regulating Wood
Packaging Material in International Trade".
The standard ISPM 15 also gives “GUIDELINES FOR REGULATING WOOD
PACKAGING MATERIAL IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE” and describes phytosanitary
measures to reduce the risk of introduction and/or spread of quarantine pests associated
with wood packaging material (including dunnage), made of coniferous and nonconiferous raw wood, in use in international trade.
OUTLINE OF REQUIREMENTS
Wood packaging material made of unprocessed raw wood is a pathway for the
introduction and spread of pests. Because the origin of wood packaging material is often
difficult to determine, globally approved measures that significantly reduce the risk of pest
spread are described. NPPOs (National Plant Protection Organization) are encouraged to
accept wood packaging material that has been subjected to an approved measure
without further requirements.
Such wood packaging material includes dunnage, but excludes processed wood
packaging material.

Procedures to verify that an approved measure, including the application of a globally
recognized mark, has been applied should be in place in both exporting and importing
countries. Other measures agreed to under a bilateral arrangement are also considered
in this standard. Wood packaging material that does not comply with the requirements of
this standard should be disposed of in an approved manner.
The key features of ISPM 15 are given in the table below for reverence:
The key features of ISPM 15:
ISPM 15 applies only to solid wood, with derived timber products and solid wood thinner
than 6 mm (according to the EU Harmonized System) being exempt.
Treatment of the packaging by approved measures, which include heat treatment (HT) to
a core temperature of 56°C for at least 30 minutes, for example by kiln drying (KD),
provided that the above-stated specifications are achieved. Chemical pressure
impregnation (CPI) is approved only if the required HT specifications are achieved, which
is not generally the case. Another measure is fumigation with methyl bromide (MB)
depending on concentration, duration and temperature.
Permanent and legible marking of the packaging must be provided on two opposite sides
of the package. The mark is composed of the ISO 3166 two letter country code (e.g. DE
for Germany), the regional identifier (e.g. NW for North Rhine-Westphalia) and a
registration number issued by the regional phytosanitary authority to the packaging
container manufacturer, the packer or the consignor (unique number beginning with 49).
The treatment method is denoted by the abbreviation HT for heat treatment or MB for
fumigation with methyl bromide. The letters DB may also be included where debarking is
required.

Foils
Only film products which are used in the packing industry for the manufacture of film
shrouds are allowed (see anticorrosion protection with desiccants item 5). The type of
film material has to fulfill the highest quality specifications, unlike film material that is used
only for covering purposes to provide a hood when using the VCI method (see item 5.3)
There are different types of film materials:
1. Transparent shrink-wrap foils HS
Shrink films as VCI corrosion protection film - based on polyethylene with VCI active
substance integrated in the polymer matrix - are used. Both sides of the film provide
effective VCI protection (example: EXOR VALENO FILM).
Below a typical date sheet of such foils is given for information.
2. Aluminum composite foil designed as sealing layer foil.
