General information SMB Rack NOTE! Always read the instruction manual before use. Combisafe accepts no liability for items that have been altered. GENERAL INFORMATION Only use the SMB Rack for its intended purpose only. Do not stack or load anything other than Combisafe Steel Mesh Barriers No.
SMB Rack Technical data TECHNICAL DATA General dimensions and weight, SMB Rack The overall dimensions can be seen in Figure 1. Figure 1. General dimensions of SMB Rack Product number Weight 9535 46,1 kg...
SMB Rack Assembly of the SMB Rack While transporting the SMB Racks the vertical corner tubes are disassembled to achieve a compact stacking. Before loading the Rack with SMBs these tubes needs to be assembled. Figure 2. Assembly of corner vertical tubes The tubes are secured with M10x70 bolts (Art.No.
SMB Rack Lifting by crane Use a suitable 4-legged lifting chain or two lifting slings with permissible load ability (SWL) above 1020 kg. Maximum chain/sling spread angle 60°. Figure 3. Lifting SMB Rack with sling by crane...
SMB Rack Lifting with forks The Rack can be lifted from all sides with forks. When lifting from long side, make sure that the barriers are not in the way. Caution must be exercised not to damage the barriers with the fork lift. Place forks centered on Rack and make sure that forks are pushed in enough so the box supports on both sides.
SMB Rack Method 1 This method is the easiest, due to that the barriers are stacked in the same direction, with the toe board upwards according to Figure 5. (Picture showing optional Fixation Device). Make sure that the barriers are placed centered in the Rack to avoid overturning.
SMB Rack Method 2 This method is used when absolute maximum number of barriers must be stacked in each Rack. Place every second barrier in the opposite direction, i.e. every second net with the toe board upwards according to Figure 7, (Picture showing optional Fixation Device).
SMB Rack The heaviest barrier weighs 19,5 kg and can be handled by one person, but for frequent loading/unloading it is recommended to use lifting equipment or use two persons. Don’t move or lift the SMB Rack by hand. Refer to current Health and Safety regulations applicable to country of use to ensure compliance.
SMB Rack General dimensions and weight, Fixation Device The overall dimensions can be seen in Figure 9. Figure 9. General dimensions of Fixation Device Product number Weight 11040 2,8 kg...
SMB Rack Assembly of the Fixation Device Figure 10. Assembly of optional Fixation Device Attach the Fixation Device with one M10x70 bolt (Art.No. 100227) and lock nut (Art.No. 100027). The attachment hole is placed asymmetrically making it impossible to mount the Fixation Device in the wrong direction.
SMB Rack Figure 11. Rack fully stacked with 50 SMBs using the Fixation Device Stacking of SMB racks Combisafe recommends that no more than four SMB Racks are stacked on top of each other. Figure 12. Maximum four SMB Racks stacked...
SMB Rack Stacking of empty SMB racks During transportation and storage of empty SMB Racks, the vertical corner tubes described in the assembly section are removed and the SMB Racks are stacked on top of each other according to Figure 13. The vertical tubes are sent along, packed separately.
SMB Rack Identification Every SMB Rack has a stamped ID-number. This can be found on one of the foot bars. The ID number contains : Manufacturers code (First character) Manufacturing year (First set of two digits) Manufacturing week (Second set of two digits) Figure 14.
SMB Rack Safety recommendations Check list Crack free and notch-free welds Deformation Corrosion Damage Wear Visible ID number Deformed or damaged areas around lifting points No sharp edges If in doubt, consult Combisafe. Annual inspection It is recommended that the box is inspected at least once a year by a trained competent person unless stated otherwise in a community country of use.
