well as tags, stickers, and labels on the equipment.
WARNING: Any use of this equipment outside of the
design intent may cause injury or harm.
WARNING: Vent all refrigerant relief valves in
accordance to ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 15, Safety Code
for Mechanical Refrigeration. Locate this equipment in
a well-ventilated area. Inhalation of refrigerant can be
hazardous to your health and the accumulation of
refrigerant within an enclosed space can displace
oxygen and cause suffocation.
WARNING: This equipment contains hazardous
voltages that can cause severe injury or death.
WARNING: This equipment contains refrigerant under
pressure. Accidental release of refrigerant under
pressure can cause personal injury and or property
damage.
WARNING: This equipment may contain fan blades or
other sharp edges. Make sure all fan guards and other
protective shields are securely in place.
WARNING: The exposed surfaces of motors, refrigerant
piping, and other fluid circuit components can be very
hot and can cause burns if touched with unprotected
hands.
CAUTION: Disconnect and lock out incoming power
before installing, servicing, or maintaining the
equipment. Connecting power to the main terminal
block energizes the entire electric circuitry of the unit.
Shut off the electric power at the main disconnect
before opening access panels for repair or
maintenance.
CAUTION: Wear eye protection when installing,
maintaining, or repairing the equipment to protect
against any sparks, debris, or fluid leaks.
CAUTION: The equipment will exceed 70 dBA sound
pressure at 1 meter distance and 1 meter elevation
when operating. Wear ear protection as required for
personal comfort when operating or working in close
proximity to the chiller.
CAUTION: Wear protective gloves when installing,
maintaining, or repairing the equipment to protect
against any sparks, debris, or fluid leaks.
Pre-Installation
Receiving Inspection
When the unit arrives, verify the information on the
unit nameplate agrees with the order
acknowledgement and shipping papers. Inspect all
items for visible damage. If damage is evident,
document it on the delivery receipt by marking any
item with damage as “unit damage” and notify the
carrier and our Customer Service Department. Do
not install damaged equipment without approval
from our Customer Service Department.
To protect against loss due to damage incurred
during shipping it is important to follow proper
procedures and keep records. When unpacking
equipment inspect for concealed damage and take
pictures of any damage found. Once received,
equipment owners have the responsibility to provide
reasonable evidence that the damage did not occur
after delivery. Photos of damage while the
equipment is still partially packed helps in this
regard.
Chillers with an integral water-cooled or air-cooled
condenser ship with a full refrigerant charge. Chillers
designed for use with a remote air-cooled condenser
and the remote condensers themselves ship with a
nitrogen holding charge.
Unit Storage
When storing the unit it is important to protect it
from damage. Blow out any water from the unit;
cover it to keep dirt and debris from accumulating or
getting in, and store in an indoor sheltered area that
remains between 40°F and 140°F.
