Use only original replacement parts for any repair or compo-
nent replacement. Consult the list of replacement parts that 
corresponds to the specification of the original equipment.
Do not drain water circuits containing industrial brines, 
without informing the technical service department at the 
installation site or a competent body first.

Close the entering and leaving water shutoff valves and 
purge the unit water circuit, before working on the compo-
nents installed on the circuit (screen filter, pump, water 
flow switch, etc.).

Periodically inspect all valves, fittings and pipes of the 
refrigerant and hydronic circuits to ensure that they do 
not show any corrosion or any signs of leaks.

It is recommended to wear ear defenders, when working 
near the unit and the unit is in operation.

2 - PRElIMINARy CHECkS

2.1 - Check equipment received

• 

Inspect the unit for damage or missing parts. If damage 
is detected, or if shipment is incomplete, immediately 
file a claim with the shipping company.

• 

Compare the name plate data with the order. The name 
plate is attached in two places to the unit:

 

-  on one of the unit sides on the outside,

 

-  on the control box door on the inside.

• 

The unit name plate must include the following 
information:

 

Version number

 

Model number

 

CE marking

 

Serial number 

 

Year of manufacture and test date

 

Refrigerant used and refrigerant class

 

Refrigerant charge per circuit

 

Containment fluid to be used

 

PS: Min./max. allowable pressure (high and low 
pressure side)

 

TS: Min./max. allowable temperature (high and 
low pressure side)

 

Pressure switch cut-out pressure

 

Unit leak test pressure

 

Voltage, frequency, number of phases

 

Maximum current drawn

 

Maximum power input

 

Unit net weight

• 

Confirm that all accessories ordered for on-site installa-
tion have been supplied, are complete and undamaged.

• 

Do not keep the 30RW/30RWA units outside where they 
are exposed to the weather, as the sensitive control 
mechanism and the electronic modules may be damaged.

The unit must be checked periodically during its whole 
operating life to ensure that no shocks (handling accessories, 
tools etc.) have damaged it. If necessary, the damaged parts 
must be repaired or replaced. See chapter “Maintenance”.

The machine must be installed in a place that is not 
accessible to the public or protected against access by 
non-authorised persons.

2.2 - Moving and siting the unit

2.2.1 - moving
See chapter 1.1 - “Installation safety considerations”.

2.2.2 - siting the unit

Always refer to the chapter “Dimensions and clearances” 
to confirm that there is adequate space for all connections 
and service operations. For the centre of gravity coordinates, 
the position of the unit mounting holes, and the weight 
distribution points, refer to the certified dimensional 
drawing supplied with the unit.

Typical applications of these units are in refrigeration 
systems, and they do not require earthquake resistance. 
Earthquake resistance has not been verified.

In case of extra-high units the machine environment must 
permit easy access for maintenance operations.

CAUTION: Only use slings at the designated lifting 
points which are marked on the unit.

Before siting the unit check that:
• 

the permitted loading at the site is adequate or that 
appropriate strenghtening measures have been taken.

• 

the unit is installed level on an even surface (maximum 
tolerance is 1.5 mm in both axes).

• 

there is adequate space above the unit for air flow and 
to ensure access to the components.

• 

the number of support points is adequate and that 
they are in the right places.

• 

the location is not subject to flooding. 

CAUTION: Before lifting the unit, check that all casing 
panels are securely fixed in place. Lift and set down the 
unit  with great care. Tilting and jarring can damage the 
unit and impair unit operation.

If 30RW/RWA units are hoisted with rigging, it is neces-
sary to protect the unit frame (side and rear panels and 
front doors) against accidental crushing while a unit is 
being moved. Use struts or lifting beams to spread the 
slings above the unit. Do not tilt a unit more than 15°. 
Always follow the instructions on the handling notice 
attached to the unit.

If a unit includes a hydronic module (options 116B, 116C, 
270B, 270C), the hydronic module and pump piping must 
be installed in a way that does not submit it to any strain. 
The hydronic module pipes must be fitted so that the pump 
does not support the weight of the pipes.

Never push or lever on any of the enclosure panels (panels, 
uprights, front access doors) of the unit. Only the base of 
the unit frame is designed to withstand such stresses.

Checks before system start-up
Before the start-up of the refrigeration system, the complete 
installation, including the refrigeration system must be 
verified against the installation drawings, dimensional 
drawings, system piping and instrumentation diagrams and 
the wiring diagrams.
