Installation

Installing the Unit

Follow the procedures below to install the
unit properly.

Ceiling Suspended Horizontal Units

1.

Determine the unit mounting hole
dimensions. Prepare the hanger rod
isolator assemblies (provided by
installing contractor) and install. Use
threaded rods  to level the unit.
Consult the General Data tables and/
or the Dimensions and Weights
section to determine total unit
weight. See Figure I-P-1.

Note: Verify that the motor is clean and
dry prior to startup

.

2.

Attach the unit to the suspension rods
using washers and lock-nuts.

3.

Level the unit for proper coil
drainage and condensate removal
from the drain pan. Refer to Figure
I-MR-1 for proper drain trapping.
Isolate piping separately.

4.

Connect the ductwork to the unit.
Refer to the Ductwork
Recommendations section.

Floor Mounted Horizontal and
Vertical Units

1.

Determine the total unit weight  and
each corner weight before designing
the vibration isolation system sizing
(provided and installed by others).
Refer to the following section, 

Corner

Weight Calculations, and the
Dimensions and Weights section for
unit and coil weights. Isolation
systems may be either spring-type
or “waffle pad”  isolators.

2.

Both horizontal and vertical units ship
with corner brackets for mounting.
Prepare the floor or housekeeping
pad to properly secure unit.

3.

Secure the unit to the floor with
anchor bolts and lock-nuts . Or if using
isolators, secure them to the floor
and then secure the unit to the
isolators.  Refer to Figure I-IP-2.

4.

Remove all shipping blocking or
restraints on the isolator systems.

Optional Sections

All optional sections ship fully assembled,
attached to one another on a separate
skid from the main unit. These sections
have installation brackets on all four
corners, similar to the main unit.

Figure I-IP-2. Floor installation

Figure I-IP-1. Ceiling installation

Notes: Vibration Isolation Hanger.
Use hanger rod diameter
recommended by isolator
manufacturer. Vibration isolators are
field-supplied.

Note: Floor mounted unit may be
mounted on isolators as shown or
on Elasto-rib pads. Isolators or
Elasto-rib pads are field-supplied.
