Installation
To install the air conditioner, comply with the Directives indicated at the beginning of chapter “2. Safety”.
7.1.
Positioning
Pay attention to the following factors to identify the chiller installation site.
•
The unit should not be positioned downstream heat sources or dirt, in relation to the wind direction. Particles
of grease and dust in the air would deposit on the condenser fins, reducing the heat transmission efficiency.
•
Sites subject to heavy snow or sand accumulation, as well as flooding, are not suitable for installation. To
prevent snow or sand accumulation, you can install protection devices provided that they do not obstruct free
maintenance spaces.
•
Moreover, make sure that the site does not favour air short-circuits between discharge and condenser recovery.
•
If the unit is installed on the ground, the soil must not be soft or crumbly.
•
According to the drawings shown in paragraph 5.3, check the compliance with the free spaces for maintenance
and air circulation, by means of the condenser, suction, and expulsion. Moreover, check the minimum distance
from obstacles or other chillers.
The support surface must be perfectly horizontal and capable to withstand the weight of the chiller during operation
(data indicated in the technical sheets, paragraph 5.2) safely. The dimensions of the support base must be larger
compared to the plan dimensions of the chiller
Removing the packaging
Once the chiller is placed on the ground, remove the packaging without damaging the chiller.
The packaging must be disposed of in compliance with the Standards in force.
