Standard Practice for Evaluating Response Robots: Logistics: Packaging and Setup Time
1.1 This practice covers the requirement that remotely operated robots and all necessary associated components or equipment (for example, operator control station, power sources, spare parts, sensors, manipulators, tools, extra batteries, and so forth) shall be included in the response organization’s cache packaging and transportation systems.
1.2 Shipment by ground, air, or marine should be considered.
1.3 Volume, weight, shipping classification, and deployability of the robots and associated components are considered in this practice.
1.3.1 The deployability is considered through the determination of:
1.3.1.1 The length of time required to prepare the robot system for deployment, and
1.3.1.2 The types of tools required for servicing the robot system in the field.
1.3.2 Associated components or equipment include not only all the onboard sensors, tethers, and operator control station, but also any spare parts and specialized tools needed for assembly, disassembly, and field servicing.
1.3.3 Associated components also include power equipment necessary for the operation of the system, such as batteries, chargers, and power converters. Gasoline, diesel, or other types of liquid fuel are not included.
1.4 The packaged items should support the operational availability of the robot during a deployment of up to ten days or as determined by the organization. There may be no resupply within the first 72 h of deployment, or as determined by the organization.
1.5 No other standard currently exists except for those relevant to shipping (for example, CFR Title 49 and International Air Transport Association (IATA) documents).
1.6 The International System of Units (SI Units) and U.S. Customary Units (Imperial Units) are used throughout this practice. They are not mathematical conversions. Rather, they are approximate equivalents in each system of units to enable use of readily available materials in different countries. The differences between the stated dimensions in each system of units are insignificant for the purposes of comparing test method results, so each system of units is separately considered standard within this practice.
1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.8 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
