Rigging
Refer to
Table 1
for the recommended vertical dimension “H” from the lifting device to the spreader bar. In the event of extended
lifts or where hazards exist, the lifting devices should be used in conjunction with safety slings placed under the unit.
Most single cell Vertex™ Evaporative Condenser products are designed to be lifted in one assembled piece as shown in
Figure 1.
Verify the total unit shipping wight is below 35,000 lbs. before performing a single-piece lift.
A two-piece lift is shown in
Figure 2.
NOTES:
For weight information, refer to the submittal drawing package. Any motors or accessories shipped in the cold water
basin must be removed prior to installing the upper (mechanical and coil casing) section.
WARNING:
Single piece lift is ONLY possible when total unit shipping weight is under 35,000 lbs. Please refer
to the shipping weight shown on the Unit Print from submittal package. Single piece lifting must be done using
lifting ears on the base of the upper casing section (See
Figure 1
).
