What this note covers

  • Shipment configuration — approximately 3 x 40-foot HC containers plus 2 x 40-foot flat racks carrying the three PhotonAssay™ 1408X cabins

  • Cabin weights and crane rigging requirements, including the LINAC cabin’s off-centre centre of gravity (~30 tonnes)

  • Site access planning — access routes, door clearances, and positioning of trucks, cranes, and frannas

  • Two methods for moving cabins into a facility: direct internal unloading via franna, or external unloading onto Chrysos-supplied trolleys

  • Cabin positioning onto timber blocks and loose shipment delivery and unloading procedures
