Foreword
This multi-part European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) has been produced by the Equipment
Engineering (EE) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
This standard is concerned with environmental conditions and environmental tests for telecommunications
equipment and comprises two main parts, each with subdivisions:
- ETS 300 019-1: "Classification of environmental conditions".
This part of the standard, Part 1, specifies different standardised environmental classes covering
climatic and biological conditions, chemically and mechanically active substances and mechanical
conditions during storage, transportation and in use.
- ETS 300 019-2: "Specification of environmental tests".
This part of the standard will specify the test requirements for the different environmental classes.
Each part of the standard is divided into sub-parts. Sub-part 1-0 will form a general overview of Part 1.
This sub-part, Sub-part 1-2, deals with transportation.
This part of the standard (Part 1) was submitted to Public Enquiry as prETS 300 019 Part B. The original
Part A is to be published as ETSI Technical Report ETR 035 entitled: "Equipment Engineering (EE);
Environmental engineering Guidance and terminology".
Annex A to this sub-part is normative.

1 Scope
The purpose of this sub-part of this standard is to define the classes of environmental conditions and their
severities to which equipment may be exposed when being transported. Only severe conditions, which may
be harmful to the equipment, are included. The severities specified are those which will have a low
probability of being exceeded; generally less than 1 %.
This sub-part applies to equipment being transported from one place to another after being made ready for
dispatch from the manufacturer's works. The most commonly used methods of transportation have been
taken into account, i.e. ground, water and air transport. Loading and unloading as well as temporary
storage, have been included. Where the equipment is packaged the environmental conditions apply to the
packaging protecting the equipment.
NOTE: Normal transportation time is considered to be 30 days or less. Where the total
transportation time exceeds 30 days then additional storage or packaging precautions
must be considered.
2 Normative references
This ETS incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative
references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. for
dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of any of these publications apply to this ETS
only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the
publication referred to applies.

and terminology".
[2] IEC Publication 721-3-2: "Transportation".
[3] IEC Publication 721-2-1: "Temperature and Humidity".
[4] IEC Publication 68-2-27: "Test Ea: Shock".
3 Definitions
In this sub-part of this standard, the following definitions apply:
Weatherprotected: The equipment, packaged or unpackaged, is contained within an enclosure which
affords some protection from the environment, ranging from a temperature controlled container to a
waterproof cover placed over the equipment. Ventilation ranges from controlled air flow to the raising of
part of a waterproof cover to allow for natural air flow.
Non-weatherprotected: The equipment, packaged or unpackaged, is not protected in any way from the
environment.

4 Environmental classes
The classes shown in parentheses, e.g. (2M3) may be selected for special applications.
Three different environmental classes have been defined. Classes 2.1 and 2.2 are special classes relating
to low temperature and less severe mechanical conditions. Class 2.3 is the normal class for transportation
of equipment.
4.1 Class 2.1: Very careful transportation
This class is a combination of classes 2K3/2B2/2C2/2S2/2M1 (see Table 5 NOTE 8) in IEC
Publication 721-3-2 [2].
This class applies to transportation where special care has been taken e.g. with respect to low
temperature and handling.
The conditions covered include transportation in unventilated enclosures and in non-weatherprotected
conditions with restrictions on the general open-air climates, excluding cold and cold temperate climates.
transportation by air only covers equipment carried in heated, pressurised holds.
NOTE: A survey of applications in different climates is shown at Annex A. Climatic conditions
for different areas are defined in IEC Publication 721-2-1 [3].
This class applies to transportation:
- where the equipment may be moved between cold, non-weatherprotected and warm,
weatherprotected conditions. It may for short periods be exposed to direct solar radiation,
precipitation and splashing water. The equipment may be placed on a wet floor and inside an
enclosure which is subjected to sunshine and rain etc. Non-weatherprotected exposure does not
include exposure to sea waves. The equipment may be placed close to heating elements;
- in areas and conditions where mould growth, attacks by animals, except termites, may occur;
- which is non-weatherprotected (but including transport by sea where the equipment is protected
against sea waves) in areas with normal industrial activities excluding those where large quantities of
chemical pollutants are emitted;
- which is non-weatherprotected, as well as weatherprotected and where sweeping of dusty floors is
taken into account. Transportation in sand desert areas is not included;
- in aircraft, lorries and air-cushioned trucks and trailers in areas with well-developed road systems.
Only mechanical loading and unloading is included. No risk of dropping is taken into account. The
mechanical conditions given apply to equipment placed on the floor of the compartment in which it is
transported.
4.2 Class 2.2: Careful transportation
This class is a combination of classes 2K3/2B2/2C2/2S2/2M1 in IEC Publication 721-3-2 [2].
This class applies to transportation where special care has been taken e.g. with respect to low
temperature and handling.
Class 2.2 covers the conditions of class 2.1. In addition class 2.2 includes transportation in all types of
lorries and trailers in areas with well-developed road systems. It also includes transportation by ship and
by train with specially designed, shock-reducing buffers. Manual loading and unloading of up to 20 kg is
included.
4.3 Class 2.3: Public transportation
This class is a combination of classes 2K4/2B2/2C2/2S2/2M2(2M3) in IEC Publication 721-3-2 [2].

ETS 300 0019-1-2: February 1992
This class applies to transportation, where no special precautions have been taken.
The conditions covered include transportation in unventilated enclosures and in non-weatherprotected
conditions with restrictions on the general open-air climates, excluding cold climates. Transportation by air
covers equipment carried in heated, pressurised holds.
NOTE: A survey of applications in different climates is shown in Annex A. Climatic conditions
for different areas are defined in IEC Publication 721-2-1 [3].
Class 2.3 covers the conditions of classes 2.1 and 2.2. In addition class 2.3 has a lower cold-temperature
limit. Continuous or repeated solar radiation, precipitation and splashing of water may occur. Class 2.3
also includes all types of transport in areas without well-developed road systems. Rough handling is
included.

NOTE 1:  The high temperature of the surface of a product may be

      and the solar radiation through a window or another opening.

NOTE 2:  The high temperature of the surface of a product is influenced
      by the surrounding air temperature, given here, and the solar
      radiation defined below.

NOTE 3:  A direct transfer of the product between the two given
      temperatures is presumed.
NOTE 4:  The product is assumed to be subjected to a rapid decrease of
      temperature only (no rapid increase). The figures of water content
      apply to temperatures down to the dew-point; at lower temperatures
      the relative humidity is assumed to be approximately 100 %.

NOTE 5:  The figure indicates the velocity of water and not the height of
      water accumulated.

NOTE 6:  Occurrence of condensation.

NOTE 7:  For short duration only.
