Rigging
The Model RTAA chiller should be
moved by lifting. Refer to Figures 14
thru 17 for typical unit lifting and
operating weights. Refer to the rigging
diagram that ships with each unit for
specific “per unit” weight data.
WARNING: To prevent injury or
death and unit damage, capacity
of lifting equipment must exceed
unit lifting weight by an
adequate safety factor.
Lifting Procedure
Caution: To prevent damage do not use
a forklift to lift the unit.
[ ] Install clevis connectors through the
four, six or eight lifting plates
provided on the unit (Figures 14
thru 17).
WARNING: To prevent injury or
death and unit damage, use the
lifting method shown in Figures
14 and 17.
[ ] Attach lifting chains or cables to
clevis connectors. Each cable alone
must be strong enough to lift the
chiller.
[ ] Attach cables to lifting beam. Total
lifting weight, lifting weight
distribution and required lifting
beam dimensions are shown in
Figures 14 thru 17 and on the
rigging diagram shipped with each
unit. Lifting beam crossbars must be
positioned so lifting cables do not
contact the sides of the unit.
Caution: To prevent unit damage,
position lifting beam so that cables
do not contact the unit.
