Transport, Lifting and Positioning
Before positioning the unit, make sure that the place
of installation is appropriate and sturdy enough to
hold the weight and to withstand the stress caused
by the operation of the whole assembly.
Do not displace the unit on rollers, and do
not lift it with a lift truck.
Unit must be lifted carefully.
To lift unit slowly and regularly.
To lift and displace the unit:
h
Insert and secure eyebolts into the holes marked
on the frame.
h
Insert spacer between cables.
h
Hook near the barycentre of the unit.
h
The cables must be long enough to form, if ten-
sioned, an angle of at least 45° with respect to the
horizontal plane.
For lifting operations, use only tools and
material fit for this purpose, in accordance
with accident-prevention regulations.
During the lifting and handling of the unit,
be careful not to damage the finned pack of
the coils positioned on the sides of the unit.
The sides of the unit must be protected by
cardboard or plywood sheets.
It is recommended not to remove the protec-
tive plastic envelope, that should prevent
scraps from penetrating into the appliance
and any damage to the surfaces, until the
unit is ready for operation.
The lifting eyebolts protrude from the base
of the unit; it is therefore recommended to
remove them once the unit has been lifted
and positioned, if in your opinion they are
likely to become a source of hazard and in-
jury.
The eyebolts must be mounted on the unit whenever
it shall be displaced and then lifted again.
3.3 Anchoring
It is not essential to secure the unit to the foundations,
unless in areas where there is a serious risk of earth-
quake, or if the appliance is installed on the top of a
steel frame.
3.4 Storage
When the unit is to be stored before installation,
adopt a few precautions to prevent any damage or
risk of corrosion or wear:
h
plug or seal every single opening, such as water
fittings
h
do not store the appliance in a room where the
temperature exceeds 50°C for the units using
R407C and, if possible, do not expose to direct
sunlight
h
it is recommended to store the unit in a roof where
traffic is minimized, to prevent the risk of acciden-
tal damage
h
the unit must not be washed with a steam jet
h
take away and leave to the site manager all the
keys providing access to the control board
Finally, it is recommended to carry out visual inspec-
tions at regular intervals.
