Unit Weights
Before rigging any unit, the weight of each section should be verified
from the unit submittal drawing. Unit print weights include the final
assembled tower with all accessories.
Anchoring
Holes suited for M16 bolts are provided for bolting the unit to the
support beams. Refer to the suggested support drawing included in
the submittal for location and quantity of the mounting holes.
The unit
must be level for proper operation.
Anchor bolts must be provided by
others.
Support beams must also be level. Each footing should be shimmed
with a firm material to ensure the weight of the tower is carried at all
points and that the basin ledges are level at all places. Shims may be
required either side of a joint. This is to be done before the basin is
filled with water. If vibration isolators are used, a supporting framework
must be provided between the unit and the vibration isolators to
provide continuous and rigid support. Anchor bolts, footings and beams
to be supplied by others.
Cold Weather Operation
These products must be protected by mechanical and operational
methods against damage and/or reduced effectiveness during sub-
freezing temperatures. Please contact your local BAC Representative
for recommended cold weather operation strategies.
Location
All evaporative cooling equipment must be located to ensure an
adequate supply of fresh air to the fans. When units are located
adjacent to walls or in enclosures, care must be taken to ensure
that the warm saturated discharge air is not deflected and short-
circuited back to the air intake(s). Also each unit should be located
and positioned to prevent the introduction of discharge air into the
ventilation system of the building on which the unit is located & of
adjacent buildings. For detailed recommendations on layouts, please
consult your local Baltimore Aircoil Representative.
Warranties
Please refer to the Limitation of Warranties (located in the submittal
package) applicable to and in effect at the time of the sale/purchase of
these products.
Unit Operation
Prior to start-up and unit operation, refer to the RC Series Operation &
Maintenance Manual shipped with the unit.
ATTENTION:
Before an actual
lift is undertaken, ensure no
water, snow, ice, or debris
has collected in the basin
or elsewhere in the unit.
Such accumulations will
add substantially to the
equipment’s lifting weight.
WARNING:
Drawing weights
are approximate only. They
should be confirmed by
weighing, before lifting, when
available hoisting capacity
provides little margin for
safety. Also before lifting
ensure that no water, ice, snow
or other debris has collected in
the unit. Such accumulations
will add substantially to the
equipment’s lifting weight.
