4.0 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
4.1 GOODS INSPECTION
Before leaving the factory, the correct mechanical and electrical state of
the 28V DC GPU is checked in a final inspection. As soon as the
equipment has arrived check whether any freight damage has occurred
and if necessary, bring this to the attention of the freight operator.
In no
circumstances put a damaged converter into service without consulting
your Tronair representative first.
4.2 HANDLING
The converter can be rolled into place or moved by means of a forklift or
pallet lift truck
IMPORTANT Moving by crane should only be used in exceptional
circumstances using load-spreading rails above the unit.
Please pay attention to the following handling advice:

Equipment should only be transported in an upright position

The equipment must not be tilted or turned over

Always avoid sharp impacts

Where possible, leave the equipment in its original packing when moving it, this provides the best possible protection
against damage

When moving the equipment on raised floors, it could be necessary to use a means of load distribution in order to avoid
damage to the floor
4.3
PROTECTION
During installation and cabling it is absolutely essential that the equipment is protected from the ingress of water, concrete or
metal particles, and dust etc. Protection of the equipment is particularly important when other trades or construction is taking
place in the same vicinity. All inlets and parts of the equipment not being worked on should be covered, at the least with
heavy-duty polyethylene, and preferably with more substantial packing.
It is also important to ensure that people working overhead do not stand on the equipment or use it as a convenient platform
for other work.
On completion of any work requiring the opening of the equipment doors or panels or removal of cover plates or gland plates,
the unit should be thoroughly vacuumed out and re-packed or protected. Tronair accepts no liability for any damage to
equipment caused by physical mal-treatment or by ingress of foreign material.
4.4
STORAGE
If it is necessary to store the converter for any length of time than it should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated room that is free
of corrosive materials. Where possible, the original packing should not be removed during storage.
IMPORTANT In no circumstances must the converter be stacked, or stored outside.
4.4.1
Floor Loading Capacity
The weight of the equipment is distributed over a relatively small area; special care must therefore be taken to ensure that the
floor loading capacity is adequate. The exact value can be obtained from the Technical Data. If necessary, the supporting
surface can be reinforced by interposing a suitable steel plate. Please consult your architect or Tronair representative if you
require assistance.
