5 INSTALLATION
During installation or whenever work must be carried out on the unit, it is essential to strictly follow the instructions in this
manual, comply with the directions on the unit and in any case take all necessary precautions.
The pressures in the refrigerant circuit and the electrical components can create risky situations during
installation and maintenance work.
5.1 Dimensions and weight
In order to correctly position the unit, please refer to the dimensional drawing supplied with the order confirmation for its
size and weight.
5.2 Place of installation
The following should be taken into account when establishing the best place to install the unit and the relevant connections:
- size and origin of the hydraulic piping;
- location of the power supply;
- accessibility for maintenance or repair operations;
- load-bearing capacity of the support surface;
- possible glare, resonance, acoustic interactions with elements outside the unit;
-
ventilation of the remote air condenser (when required): for this purpose, please consult the documentation.
As for the installation of the remote air condenser, please also take into consideration:
- positioning and exposure to solar radiation of the air condenser. Keep the condensing coil out of direct sunlight as far
as possible;
- direction of prevailing winds: Do not position the unit in a such a way that prevailing winds could cause air recirculation
to the condensing coil;
-
type of ground: Avoid placing the condensing unit on dark coloured ground (for example tarred surfaces), in order to
avoid overheating during operation.
All models in the series are designed and built for indoor installation; it is therefore absolutely necessary to avoid positioning
and even storage in outdoor environments even if protected against weather conditions.
The remote air condensers are designed for outdoor installation (terraces, gardens); it is therefore necessary to avoid
placing them under any roofing or positioning them near trees (even if they should only partially cover the unit), in order to
avoid air recirculation potential.
It is obligatory to observe the clearances specified in the dimensional drawing of the unit.
If the condenser is installed in particularly windy areas, it is necessary to provide windbreaks in order to pre-
vent malfunction of the unit.
