Storage
If the product is stored in a room before installation check:
- there aren't continously operating ignition sources (open flames,
gas appliances, electric heaters,..) within a radius of 2.5 m.
- there is adequate ventilation
The product must be stored of according to the regulations in force.
2.5
Handling and removal of the packing
Before unpacking, personal protective clothing should be worn and
used transport means and tools suitable for the size and weight of
the unit.
Check refrigerant leak inside the packaging with a leak detector
suitable for the refrigerant used in the system.If a gas leak is
detected, probably the refrigerant circuit is damaged and the
product can't be installed; finally call Technical Service
.
Product handling can also be done manually by grasping the handles
provided on the packaging.

Document envelope and material supplied as kit
Follow the below instructions for packing removal and product handling:
- transport the equipment in the installation place
- cut strapping bands
- lift and remove the cardboard pack
The unit is supplied with the connections cover fixed to the unit with
adhesive tape to avoid damage during transport and handling
operations.
Before handling operations it is necessary to fix the connections cover to
the unit:
1
Adhesive tape

Handles
- remove the adhesive tape
- unscrew the connections cover fixing screw from the unit
- position the connections cover
- Reassemble the fixing screws.
- handle the unit by grasping the handles provided.
- remove the document envelope
In manual operation it is compulsory to respect always the maximum
weight per person provided for by the national laws and standards.
Handle with care
The equipment must always be handled vertically
Do not tilt the equipment over 15°
The unit’s weight is concentrated on the compressors side
(connection covering side).
The packing material must not be disposed of in the surrounding
environment and must be kept out of children reach, as it can be
dangerous. It must be disposed of according to the regulations in
force.

Place of installation
The location of
BREVA EX
devices must be determined by the
system's designer or by another competent person, and must take into
account the technical requirements, as well as any current local
regulations that require specific permits to be obtained. (e.g.: zoning,
architectural, environmental protection, etc.).
It is therefore recommended to obtain all the necessary permits before
installing the device.
is designed for outdoor installation.
Avoid:
- positioning the unit in air shafts and/or basement window wells
- any obstacles or barriers that will cause the expelled air to
recirculate
- locations with aggressive or explosive atmospheres or with
inflammable fluids
- confined locations in which the device's sound levels might be
compounded by reverberations or resonances
- proximity to bedrooms and rooms for resting
- positioning in corners where dust, leaves, or any other materials
typically accumulate, which could compromise the device
efficiency by obstructing the airflow
- situations in which the air expelled from the device might enter the
habitation through doors or windows, thus creating an
inconvenience for the people inside
- situations in which the air expelled from the device will encounter
resistance from opposing winds
- direct exposure to sunlight and proximity to heat sources
Avoid placing the unit less than 1 metre away from radio and video
systems.
If the unit is installed in a windy location, fit an anti-wind grille to
protect the fan and check the correct functioning of the unit.
Decide where to place the unit considering the length of cooling lines
and the maximum difference of height allowed between the devices.
2.7
Recommended distances
The distances for the device installation and maintenance are shown in
the figure. The indicated spaces are necessary in order to prevent the
airflow from being blocked, as well as to allow normal cleaning and
maintenance operations to be carried out.
