4.4.1 Installation of table devices of TDH type
The suitability and the load bearing capacity of the foundations, brackets, machine frames etc. –
provided by the customer – are not the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer. When
calculating the bearing load, in addition to the empty weight of the unit, the weight of the pipe content
and possible additional weights such as snow, moisture or dirt must be taken into account.
It must be ensured that the subsoil and supporting structure can withstand the unit load over
the long term and that there are no signs of distortion or settlement.
The device must sit evenly on all support points without twisting or bending and must be attached to
the supporting structure using appropriate fasteners. The mounting holes on the device base are to
be used for this. Noise-decoupling rubber-metal feet optionally included in the scope of supply are
designed specifically for the unit and are to be mounted under the unit feet on site. Anti-vibration
metal feet are only suitable for absorbing vertical pressing forces, any pushing or pulling force in the
transverse direction must be avoided and in extreme cases can lead to the destruction of the foot.
Installation in standing water (depressions, glycol sumps ...) can lead to rust formation on
the rubber or unit base and endanger the stability of the unit.
After installation and before commissioning, all packaging parts as well as means for transport
protection must be removed.
Make sure there is sufficient clearance to walls, facings and the like. The air flow must not
be obstructed in any way. The specified dimensions are minimum distances!
Deviating installation conditions must be clarified with the manufacturer. Special measures
may have to be taken, e.g. extended feet or air ducts.
