INSTALLATION
SECTION 3
3.1 LOCATION
DO NOT LOCATE THIS AFTERCOOLER WHERE PER-
SONNEL MAY CONTACT THE INLET PIPING UNLESS
THE UNIT IS PROTECTED BY WARNING SIGNS AND/
OR A BARRIER. DURING NORMAL OPERATION, THE
INLET PIPING MAY BECOME EXTREMELY HOT (150
O
F
TO 400
O
F). CONTACT MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PER-
SONAL INJURY.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS UNIT IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF
CORROSIVE GASES OR CHEMICALS. MAKE SURE
THAT THE MATERIALS USED IN THIS UNIT (listed on
page 2) ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THE ATMOSPHERIC
CONDITIONS.
The aftercooler should be located far enough away from the
compressor so that there are no vibrations transmitted from the
compressor.
A FLEXIBLE HOSE MUST BE INSTALLED IN
THE PIPING TO VALIDATE THE WARRANTY AND TO PRE-
VENT DAMAGE TO THE AFTERCOOLER FROM VIBRATION
IN THE PIPING!
REFERENCE Section 3.3 for instructions.
The location should be level and capable of supporting the
aftercooler and all components and piping to be installed. The
aftercooler must be level to allow proper drainage of fluids from
the outlet manifold.
CAUTION
The aftercooler must be installed at least 1 foot from walls or
obstructions. It is important for the unit to have an adequate
air supply for cooling at all times. If more than one unit is to be
installed in the same area, allow at least 1 foot between them.
Aftercoolers equipped with a TEFC motor can be installed
indoors or outdoors. If the unit is to be installed outdoors or
in an area where ambient temperatures can fall below 38
O
F,
precautions must be made to prevent freeze-up and damage
to the unit. The drain lines and separator must be heat traced
and/or insulated and the unit should be protected from the wind,
REFERENCE Section 3.5 for details.
3.2 MOUNTING THE UNIT
After selecting the proper location as outlined above, the
aftercooler should be mounted to the installation surface.
Mounting holes are provided on the leg support braces.
Reference Section 2.2 for mounting hole locations and dimen
-
sions. Use hardware (not supplied) sized for the mounting holes.
