3. INSTALLATION
The Aegis A is an air source model certified for indoor or outdoor installation. It should be installed
outdoors wherever possible, and with the maximum available space for air intake and
maintenance. A minimum of 9 ft (3 m) of overhead clearance is required to prevent the possible
recirculation of air between intake and exhaust. The Aegis W is intended for indoor installation.
The following must be taken into account when choosing the uni
t’s place of installation and
making the relative connections:
•
size and origin of the hydraulic piping;
•
location of the power supply;
•
accessibility for maintenance or repair operations;
•
solidity of the support surface;
•
ventilation of the air-cooled condenser;
•
orientation and exposure to solar radiation: keep the condensing coil out of direct sunlight
whenever possible;
•
do not position the unit in a way that strong winds favor air recirculation at the condensing
coil;
•
do not position the machine on dark colored land (e.g. tarred surfaces) so as not to cause
functioning overheating;
•
possible sound reverberation
It is obligatory to observe the clearances specified in the dimensional drawing of the unit. The unit
must always be anchored to the ground.
Provide a solid base on which to position the unit. This support must be flat and horizontal with
dimensions suitable for the unit, especially if the unit is to be positioned on unstable ground.
Figure 2: Structure Of A Typical Support Slab
The slab should be in suitable foundation with a height of about 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) above the
surrounding land and at least 12 inches (30 cm) longer and wider than the machine.
Although the unit transmits low levels of vibrations to the supporting structure, it is recommended
to lay a sheet of hard rubber between the base of the unit and the supporting surface. If better
vibration isolation is required, beyond the included anti-vibration supports, contact a certified
seismic engineer. In the event of installation on roofs or intermediate floors, the unit and the piping
must be isolated from the walls and ceilings.
