HEAT TRANSFER FLUIDS 

 
The coil(s) provided have been selected for use with a specific heat transfer fluid as shown on the 
Submittal Record.  Use of other fluids will result in different performance and can damage the coil(s). 
 
It is imperative to properly select and apply heat transfer fluids used in heating and cooling systems. 
Untreated, improperly treated or improper use of fluids or use of fluids not approved for use in commercial 
heating and cooling systems can damage coils and system components. For selection and application of 
heat transfer fluids, always follow the manufacturers’ recommendations including treatment, mixing and 
filling. Warranty will be void if coil damage results from misapplication or improper treatment of the heat 
transfer fluid. 
 
Some systems may use CPVC piping.  Do not use propylene glycol with CPVC.  

BEFORE START-UP 

Remove tie-down bolts, straps and blocks on fan and compressor vibration isolators, tilt equipped heat 
pipes and enthalpy/desiccant wheels if supplied. 

START-UP CHECK LIST 

Warning:

 

This unit is connected to high voltages. Electrical shock or death could occur 
if instructions are not followed. This equipment contains moving parts that 
can start unexpectedly.  Injury or death could occur if instructions are not 
followed.  All work should be performed by a qualified technician. Always 
disconnect and lock out power before servicing. DO NOT bypass any 
interlock or safety switches under any circumstances.

 

 
The start-up and operation must be in accordance with safe practices. Start-up must be performed by 
qualified personnel.  Complete attached start-up record. 
 
1. 

Set all associated electrical switches, controls, thermostats and main disconnect switch to “OFF” 
position.  

 
2. 

Close all manual valves and field piping valves.  

 

3. 

Confirm that all shipping materials have been removed. See any supplemental instructions shipped 
with the unit to help identify possible locations.

 

 

4. 

Check all bearings, drive and fan set screws for tightness.  See TABLE 

I

 

 
5. 

Check drive alignment and belt tension. Refer to Maintenance, page 26. 

 
6. 

Inspect all electrical wiring, both field and factory installed, for loose connections. Ensure fire alarm 
contact is installed, or jumpered if not required.  

 
7. 

Turn disconnect switch ON (control switch is still off) and check the supply voltage. Voltage must be 
within 10% of rating plate. If not, contact the installing electrical contractor and have the voltage 
condition corrected before continuing start-up.  

 
8. 

Check all fan motors for correct rotation. If incorrect, reverse rotation on incoming power only.
