Installation
Unpacking
The PCM-2 is shipped upright packed with protective cardboard and bagged foam
and plastic wrapped. The standard unit also includes a cardboard box which
resides on the floor of the unit. This box contains the unit's P-lO counting gas
bottle regulator, lifting eyebolts, spare tubing, door and upper cover lock keys,
MS-DOS & PCM-2 boot software disc and operators manual. For PCM-2's
equipped with any option(s) the associated optional hardware is installed integrally
within the unit with the exceptions of the Hand Frisking Probe, Printer, Remote
Annunciator and Remote Ailliunciator Wall Bracket Options 1, 3,4 and 14
respectively. An additional box or boxes will be provided on the floor of, or
seperately with, the PCM-2 for units with these options.
Prior to removal of its shipment packaging, the PCM-2 should be moved to the
location of its ultimate use so as to avoid damaging of its exterior surfaces in
transporting. As mentioned, two (2) large eyebolts arc provided for overhead
lifting of the unit. These eyebolts install into threaded sockets located in the
ceiling of the unit at the front-right and rear-left corners (Reference drawing
11534-D321, Detectors Installation Assembly, in Drawing Section). For overhead
lifting, a chain or webbing strap should be attached through both of these eyebolts
to keep the unit upright and to properly distribute the unit's load when hoisted.
Use appropriately rated equipment and exercise due safety precautions when
lifting the PCM-2 unit in this overhead fashion. A large appliance dolly with a
retaining strap and incline truck can be used for moving the PCM-2 on the
ground.
Avoid moving a PCM-2 unit equipped with Option 6, Swiveling Casters on its
casters across uneven surfaces or at rapid rates across any surface. These optional
casters are intended for quick and easy movement of the unit away from its fixed
operating position (i.e. up against a wall or another unit) to access rear and side
doors. The spring loaded caster levelers provided with the caster option disallow
the unit to be moved over rough or uneven surfaces and should be in their
retracted (up) positions prior to moving the unit at any time.
