Generalities Introduction

Introduction An Okken table is an association of modular columns.

This construction facilitates its transport and installation.
The electrical connection of the horizontal busbar between two columns
is carried out by splice.
Before shipping, the Okken panels underwent the 3 tests of
routine (wiring and electrical operation, insulation, measurements
of protection) and are visually, mechanically and inspected.

Generalities The final unpacking of the equipment should preferably be done just
before the installation of the board, as close as possible to its installation area
final match.
The dimensions, weight, and handling instructions of
the columns are indicated on the packaging.
As a guideline, the average mass of a column is 650 kg.
The columns must be handled in
standing position with great precautions. There is a risk
of tipping due to the high position of the center of gravity.
Avoid any movement of the columns by rotating them by
jerks and stutters

Handling from below The columns are designed with an integrated base and can be
moved forward or backward using a pallet truck or
of a forked trolley.
In this case, the columns must be raised with caution and
maintained during transport, either manually or by them
bloody on the handling device, if the movement is significant
as chaotic.

Receipt of equipment Handling

Lifting by hand In case of using cranes or overhead cranes, use some

slings that are strong enough and in good condition
The attachment must necessarily be made on the 4 rings of
lifting of the columns
Adjust the length of the slings according to the dimensions of the
table in such a way that their orientation is extended
that of the lifting rings. The predefined angle in relation to
the vertical is 20° 5° (see sketch)
Do not tilt the column during handling.
Make sure to distribute the load evenly on the 4 rings.

Receipt of the equipment Storage

Precautions Precautions to take for the storage of Okken columns:

The Okken table being an indoor equipment, the columns
must be stored upright in dry, ventilated premises, protected
rain, bad weather, runoff, dust and
chemical agents
never store the columns outside, even under a
tarpaulin
The columns should preferably remain wrapped until
their final installation. If work is underway nearby or
in the same room, cover the columns with a tarp to protect them

cement
The acceptable storage temperature is from -10°C to 40°C.
to allow for easy and safe handling, the
Columns, due to their significant weight, must be stored
fitted on a stable and rigid ground.

Installation Site preparation

Generalities The location where the board will be installed must be clean.
It is recommended to have a floor with good flatness: +/- 2 mm/m
(in this case, the columns can be secured with dowels).
For floors with a flatness > 2 mm/m, it is necessary to plan
U, T, I profiled supports, whose straightness and level must be
to be verified in both directions.
The systematic use of profiled supports is recommended.
to facilitate the mechanical connections between columns and
the splice of the bar games.
If possible, apply an anti-dust paint on the floor to
limit the nuisances within the table.
Also plan for the necessary space if extensions
futures are being considered.

Connection from the front Allow a minimum space of 100 mm at the back of the panel for
allow for good ventilation.
A minimum space of 1200 mm (1500 mm for NW appliances
A 40b/50/63 4 pole must be arranged at the front of the board in order to
allow the full opening of doors, and the handling of a
device with the help of a forklift.

Rear connection Provide a minimum space of 1200 mm at the back of the board for

❑either under a false floor.
In the case of a false floor, the panel must be installed on a
metal chassis designed to support the weight of the columns
(about 650 kg per column). The tiles of the false floor will be
adjusted to comply with the level of protection of the panel.
In both cases, plan for a minimum depth of 500 mm.

Installation Installation of the columns

Identification of columns Each column is typically marked by a number located on

the top of the column. It corresponds to the order number assigned to
each column on the front elevation of the table.
Some devices are too heavy to be shipped in their
columns. They are shipped separately and are marked with:
the number of the column in which they will be installed
the marker of their location in this column.

Setting up the columns There are no specific rules regarding the order of implementation.
of columns. The installation is done by juxtaposing the columns
in a logical order. The first positioned column can be
indifferently the right or left column, or even the central one of
tableau.
The choice is made based on:
from the arrangement of the premises
possibilities of access
imperatives for the installation of all the equipment in
the premises (positioning in relation to a partition, to a transformer-
teur....)
constraints of connections (position of cable trays,
arrival by prefabricated electric pipeline ....)
bring the columns on site in the chosen assembly order
Remove the packaging and protection boards if applicable.
remove the cover elements to allow access to the points
of the assembly of the columns and at the junction points
dismantle the roof
❑ dismantle the upper ventilation grilles (the lower grilles
are delivered unassembled to allow for handling of the
columns with a pallet truck).

Generalities General prescriptions

Before any intervention on the connections, put the unit into operation.
de-energized, remove the protective screens, plates and
partition enclosures
If the column is not shape 4, its power supply must be cut off.
in order to avoid the risk of contact with the functional units see-
sines or their connections
It is imperative to cut off the power to the column for any
intervention on functional units on a plate
Upon reassembling the connections:
use new fasteners (screws, washers, nuts) of the same type
(class 8.8)
tighten to the recommended torque (see table on page 21)
apply nail polish.

Fats to use
❑ electrical contacts: ref. 87635
mechanisms: ref. 87636

Heating point screwed connection

Identify the cause: usually a loosening of the connection
disassemble the assembly
clean and revitalize the contact surfaces (e.g. sandpaper)
No. 400
Reconnect the connections.
