Installation
5.1 Preparing for installation
Check the following points:
• Machine freely accessible from all sides
• Do not close ventilation grids and holes
• Sufficient room for installing and removing pipes
and for maintenance work, particularly for install-
ing and dismantling the machine
• No external vibration effects
• Do not suck any hot exhaust air from other ma-
chines into the cooling system.
The oil filling point (Fig. 2/H), oil sight glass (Fig. 2/I) and the oil outlets (Fig. 2/K) must be easily
accessible. The cooling air inlets (Fig. 2/E) and the cooling air outlets (Fig. 2/F) must be at least
30 cm away from adjacent walls. Cooling air coming out must not be sucked in again. For mainte-
nance work there must be a minimum of 40 cm in front of the suction flange (Fig. 2/D).
5.2 Installation
NOTICE
The machine may only be operated when it is
set up horizontally.
Material damage resulting from the machine
tipping over and falling.
When installed at more than 1000 m above sea
level a reduction in power is noticeable. In this
case we would ask you to contact us.
Contamination in the intake air
To protect the machine the operator should install
appropriate filters on the suction side.
The C-VLR 301 must not be operated without
covering plates.
Ensure that the foundation complies with the
following conditions:
• Level and straight
• The bearing surface must be designed to be
able to take the weight of the machine.
It is possible to install the machine on a firm base without anchoring. When installing on a sub-
structure we recommend fixing with flexible buffers.
