INSTALLATION
The installation section is divided into two parts. The first will cover mechanical installation, the
second, electrical installation.
Read this manual thoroughly prior to attempting the installation. Improper installation is the most
significant cause of system start-up problems and service issues over the product’s life. Upon
receipt of the equipment, perform an external visual inspection. Verify that nameplate information
is consistent with the ship’s power requirements (required form, voltage, and frequency).
Proper planning will speed up installation, location, and connection of the equipment. Follow the
suggested minimum clearances provided in Table 2.
Ensure the room/compartment has adequate ventilation and cooling. The thermal load
presented by the converter will be substantial, approximately 27,000BTU/Hr at maximum
continuous load for the AC112Q-3 & AC125Q-3. The thermal load presented by the
converter will be substantial, approximately 32,750BTU/Hr at maximum continuous load
for the AC150Q-3. The thermal load presented by the converter will be substantial,
approximately 36,000BTU/Hr at maximum continuous load for the AC165Q-3.
THE CONVERTERS ARE HEAVY, WEIGHING 2,080lbs. (943kg) EXTREME CAUTION
