ELITURBO SYSTEM
Section 3 – Installation and testing
It is suggested to hang the Eliturbo
®
units from the ceiling or from a beam, at a minimum distance
equal to at least 15% of the entire height of the environment, in any case not lower than one meter.
For example:
Ceiling height (meters)
Hanging height (meters)
6 5
8
6,5 ÷ 7
10
8 ÷ 8,5
14
11 ÷ 12
For a quick installation it is suggested to use chaines.
To lift people the machinery has to be specifically certified and used by
qualified personnel.
The personnel that will be working at heights has to be previously trained,
wear and use individual protection media to respect the legislation in force,
safety shoes, gloves, protection helmet, harness, etc.
Before positioning the unit, verify that it will not interfere with existing
machineries as lifters, kranes etc.
Avoid positioning the unit near scaffolding,
racks,etc..
In case of accessible scaffolding, verify that the unit is positioned at least
2,5m from the scaffolding.
To anchor the unit to the ceiling use steel chains with a minimum diameter of
3.5 mm or use steel cables with minimum diameter of 4.0 mm
The anchor points have to be at a sufficient distance to contrast the starting torque; it is suggested to
apply the anchoring points in a way that the chains will form an angle of 30°
÷
40° from the
vertical.
The length of the sustaining devices has to be at least a meter, this is to guarantee this distance
between the anchor point and the Eliturbo
®
’s engine.
The sustaining devices have to support a weight equivalent to 10 times the weight of the unit
distributed on the anchor points (at least 100 Kg for each anchor point: on two anchor points).
The Eliturbo
®
air mixer does not have to be installed at less than 2,5 m from
the floor.
