ASSEMBLY ON SITE 

 
 

3.1

 

POST-TRANSPORTATION CHECK 

 
Upon arrival of the air-conditioning unit on site, TCF suggests 
the customers  to perform an accurate check of the structure 
and of the components. 
Should  any  transportation  damage  be detected,  this  must  be 
notified on the delivery bill. The carrier must immediately file 
a  report  of  the  accident  to  obtain  compensation  from  the 
insurance company. 
 
 
3.2

 

PRESERVATION ON SITE 

 
In  order  to  keep  the  air-conditioning  unit  in  good  and 
efficient condition on site, the following steps must  be taken 
first: 

-

 

prior  to  installation,  position  the  unit  and  the 
accessories  in  a  place  offering  the  best  possible 
protection  against  accidental  knocks,  dust  and 
atmospheric agents 

-

 

carefully  cover  the  inlets  and  outlets  to  prevent 
foreign matter from entering the unit and damaging 
the internal components 

-

 

extract the prefilters from the unit and put them in a 
protected  place  to  preserve  their  filtrating 
efficiency. This is why the superior efficiency filters 
are  delivered  packed;  they  must  be  kept  in  their 
packages until the unit is put into service 

-

 

check  that  the  hydraulic  connections  are  protected 
by the relevant caps, as they were delivered by TCF. 
If  they  are  not,  plug  them  in  order  to  protect  them 
exchangers.

POSITIONING 

 
3.3.1

 

Dimensions of installation room 

 
The  air-conditioning  unit  installation  room  must  be  of 
sufficient  size  to  permit  easy  inspection,  maintenance  and 
component 

replacement. 

Accordingly, 

the 

following 

dimensions are recommended (fig. 3): 
 

 

 

-

 

Heat exchanger extraction side: 

min. distance Lb = (B+0,2) m 
where B = machine width (m) 

-

 

inspection side: 

min. distance Li = 1.2 m 

 
if  you  do  not  have  the  minimum  space  requirements  as 
specified  above,  the  units  doors  can,  on  request,  be  fitted 
using PVC clamps instead of hinges. In this case the minimum 
distance will be Li = 0,7 m. 
 
3.3.2

 

Base frame 

 
The  permanent  installation  of  the  air-conditioning  unit  may 
be made: 

-

 

directly on the floor (fig. 4a) 

-

 

on a concrete bed (fig. 4b) 

-

 

on a steel section bed (fig. 4c) 

-

 

on a suspended base (fig. 4d) 

 
Both the floor and the beds must be capable of withstanding 
the machine weight to within the required safety margins. 
The air-conditioning unit must be positioned on a horizontal 
surface so as to prevent: 

-

 

damage  to  the  fan  motor  units  caused  by  uneven 
weights on the vibration dampers 

-

 

malfunctioning of the condensate drains 

-

 

difficulty  in  opening  and  closing  the  inspection 
doors 

 
The  horizontal  alignment  of  the  support  surface  must  be 
checked  with  a  SPIRIT  LEVEL;  adjustments  may  be  made 
using STEEL SHIMS.
