Getting Started
1.1
Installing the Parallel Cabinet
The Parallel cabinet is shipped on a separate pallet. Use a forklift or pallet jack,
rated to handle the weight of the cabinet (refer to Drawing 164201409---3 in
Appendix A for cabinet weight), to move the packaged cabinet to the installation
site, or as close as possible to the site, before unloading from the pallet.
This is the basic sequence of the installation steps:
1.
Create an installation plan for the Parallel System (Chapter 1).
2.
Prepare your site for the Parallel System (Chapter 1).
3.
Inspect, unpack, and unload the Parallel Cabinet (Chapter 1).
4.
Wire the system (Chapter 2).
5.
Complete the Installation Checklist (Chapter 2).
6.
Have authorized service personnel perform preliminary operational checks and
startup.
NOTE:
Startup and operational checks should be performed only by authorized
service personnel. This service is usually offered as part of the sales
contract for your Parallel System. Contact service in advance (usually a
two week notice is required) to reserve a preferred startup date.
1.1.1 Creating an Installation Plan
Before beginning to install the Parallel System, read and understand how this
manual applies to the system being installed. Use the procedures and illustrations
in the following chapters to create a logical plan for installing the system.
1.1.2 Preparing Your Site
For your Parallel System to operate at peak efficiency, your installation site should
meet the environmental parameters outlined in this manual. If you intend to
operate the system at an altitude higher than 1500 meters (5000 feet), contact your
local sales or service office for important information about high altitude operation.
The operating environment must meet the weight, airflow, size and clearance,
requirements specified in Appendix A.
