Hastings COUNTERFLO CF SERIES, Installation And Service Manual

Page: 4 / 36

SECTION I. – GENERAL INFORMATION
A. PURPOSE
The purpose of this manual is to present a guide for proper installation, maintenance, and
operation of the Counterflo CF Series heaters, and to supplement, but not to replace, the
services of qualified field service personnel to supervise the initial start-up and adjustment of
the Counterflo unit. Persons without previous experience with large commercial and
industrial equipment should not attempt the initial adjustment and checkout procedure which
is essential before such installations may be considered as ready for operation. This manual
should be made readily available to operating personnel as an aid in trouble-shooting and
proper maintenance.
B. SHIPPING
Base Counterflo units are shipped with blower and burner sections assembled. Discharge air
nozzles and/or discharge hoods, optional filter and/or damper sections, or other large
optional accessories are assembled and shipped mounted and wired whenever possible
within limitations of shipping and handling. Optional accessories shipped separately are
shipped as assembled sections. Any wired accessories which have been disassembled for
separate shipment require no additional conduit or wire for field reassembly. All wire leads
will be tagged for ease of reconnection in the field.
Shipments are made F.O.B. Hastings, Nebraska, by rail or truck. In either case, the unit is
securely strapped, tied, and blocked to prevent shipping damage. All shipments are checked
by an inspector before they are accepted by the carrier. Parts that are shipped unmounted
are noted on the bill of material. These parts, where feasible, are packaged and shipped
with the units. Upon receipt of shipment, all units should be checked against the bill of
lading to insure all items have been received. The units should be checked carefully for
physical damage in the presence of the carrier’s representative. If parts are missing or
damage has occurred, a claim should be filed immediately with the carrier.
All Counterflo units are given a complete operations test and control circuit checkout before
shipment. A copy of the flame test report, wiring diagram, and bill of material is included
with each unit shipped. If correspondence with the factory is necessary, please provide the
unit model and serial number.
C. OPTIONAL FACTORY SERVICE
Periodic service on any piece of mechanical equipment is necessary for efficient operation.

dependable servicing of make-up air, return air, heating, ventilating, or air handling types of
