Chapter 2 Mechanical Installation
This chapter introduces the mechanical installation of the chilled water AC, including the transportation and
movement, unpacking, inspection, installation notes and installation procedures.
2.1 Installation Preparation
2.1.1 Transportation And Movement
Railroad transportation and shipping are the recommended means of transportation. If truck transportation is
unavoidable, choose roads that are less bumpy in order to protect the equipment.
The chilled water AC is heavy (see Table 2-1 for the weight parameters). It is recommended to use a
mechanical handbarrow such as an electric forklift when unpacking and moving the equipment to the place
closest to the installation site. Insert the tines of the forklift below the pallet, as shown in Figure 2-1. Align the
tines with the center of gravity to prevent the unit from falling over.
Figure 2-1 Fork direction
Keep the obliquity within 75° ~ 105° during the movement, as shown in Figure 2-2. Extreme incline is not
allowed.

Follow the procedures below to unpack the unit:
1. Removing the side boards and top cover
The chilled water AC uses international packaging. You can use a hammer or straight screwdriver to
straighten the hook, as shown in Figure 2-3.
