7. Installation
WARNING
Increased risk of accidents due to insufficient
qualification of personnel!
The equipment and accessories may only be installed, operated
and maintained by personnel with sufficient qualifications.
Insufficient qualification will increase the risk of accidents.
Ensure that all action is taken only by personnel with sufficient
and corresponding qualifications.
Prevent access to the system for unauthorised persons.
WARNING
Danger of personal injury and damage to property!
The devices are extremely heavy. The failure to take adequate
safety precautions during transportation and to act with caution
can lead to accidents involving personal injuries and damage to
property. Limbs can be crushed when the device is set up.
Transport the device using a floor conveyor that is suitable for
the load such as a pallet truck or forklift truck.
Wear safety shoes while transporting the device
Note
Damage to the system due to incorrect installation.
The failure to observe installation instructions (e.g. use of
unsuitable tools, incorrect torque) can damage the system parts.
Use suitable tools.
Take care not to over-tighten fittings
7.1 Installation location
7.1.1 EASYCHLORGEN electrolysis skid unit
Precondition for action:-
A firm and level floor are required for the skid mounted unit.
Refer to dimensions in section 6.
The plant room has high level natural ventilation.
The system must be accessible for operation and
maintenance.
Refer to installation schematics, section 7.4.
Perform the following steps:-
1.
Locate the skid unit into its intended permanent position
allowing sufficient space to connect services to the
connection ports to the side and top of the system.
2.
Install the hydrogen gas detector above the location of the
EASYCHLORGEN system, preferably up against the
underside of the room ceiling or at the highest point in the
immediate room. The sensor head unit is supplied with a
fixing bracket that must be used in order to facilitate quick
and easy replacement of the sensor head at the time of
future maintenance/replacement. Avoid locating the gas
detector immediately above an external salt saturator/brine
tank.
Location of skid unit complete
7.1.2 EASYCHLORGEN power supply unit (PSU)
The PSU range in size from 20kW to 40kW 3 phase power
supplies according to model capacity. Ideally, the PSU is located
in an electrical room immediately adjacent to the electrolysis skid
unit plant room area. In warm and humid climates, electrical
rooms often offer environmentally/airconditioned controlled
conditions ideal for the PSU long term performance, where
exposure to unnecessary heat and corrosion can be avoided.
Precondition for action:-
A firm and level floor is required for the PSU. Refer to
dimensions in section 6.
Refer to installation arrangements, section 7.4.
Perform the following steps:-
1.
The PSU should be installed ideally at the same floor
height as the main electrolysis unit.
2.
The PSU electrical DC busbar connections should ideally
be directly in-line with the corresponding connections of the
main electrolysis unit and both units ideally within 1150mm
adjacent of each other essentially to minimise electrical
resistance and maintain good efficient electrolytic system
performance.
