5. Installation
5.1 Receiving
Each unit is tested and thoroughly inspected before shipment. At time of shipment, the carrier
accepts the unit, and any claim for damages must be made with the carrier. Upon receiving units
from the delivering carrier, carefully inspect carton for any visible indication of damage. If damage
exists, have the carrier note this on the bill of loading and file a claim with the carrier.
5.2 Unpacking
Carefully unpack the Lancer Everest system chiller from the shipping carton.
5.3 Unpacking Installation Kits (if supplied)
Inspect kits for concealed damage and if evident notify the delivery carrier and file a claim against
them.
5.4 Selecting a Location
Unit is for indoor use only unless suitably protected by a weatherproof enclosure.
The Hoshizaki Lancer Everest system chiller should be located in a well-ventilated area that will
allow easy access for servicing.
Install on a flat, level surface. Level adjustments can be made on the adjustable legs.
5.5 Refrigeration
Connection
As with all installations, good refrigeration practice is necessary to ensure reliability and satisfactory
performance of the Hoshizaki Lancer Everest™ system chiller.
All units have a holding charge of Nitrogen / R134a mixture.
Ensure the solenoids are active prior to evacuation. Failure to do so may result in poor
evacuation of the refrigeration system and possible system failure.
Particular care should be taken to prevent oxidation during brazing, by using dry nitrogen and to
ensure that a thorough evacuation of the system is carried out prior to gas charging.
We recommend that isolating valves be fitted to the refrigerant pipes adjacent to the unit and
that the refrigeration be connected to a dedicated and correctly sized condensing unit.
Fully insulate suction line.
NOTE: REMEMBER ONE OF THE MAIN FACTORS AFFECTING EQUIPMENT RELIABILITY
AND COMPRESSOR SERVICE LIFE IS CONTAMINATION.
