Installation site
To determine the best installation site for the unit and its orientation, you should pay attention to the following points:
•
compliance with the clearance spaces indicated in the official dimensional drawing of the unit must be guaranteed so
as to ensure accessibility for routine and non-routine maintenance operations
•
you should consider the origin of the hydraulic pipes and their diameters because these affect the radiuses of curva
-
ture and therefore the spaces needed for installing them
•
you should consider the position of the cable inlet on the electrical control panel of the unit as regards the origin of
the power supply
• if the installation includes several units side by side, you should consider the position and dimensions of the manifolds
of the heat exchangers
Once the best position for the unit has been identified, you must check that the support slab has the following charac
-
teristics:
•
its dimensions must be proportionate to those of the unit: if possible, longer and wider than the unit by at least 30
cm and 15/20cm higher than the surrounding surface
•
it must be able to bear at least 4 times the operating weight of the unit
• must allow the unit to be installed in a level position
The units are designed and built to reduce to a minimum the level of vibration transmitted to the ground, but it is in any
case advisable to use rubber or spring anti-vibration mounts, which are available as accessory and should be requested
when ordering.
The anti-vibration mounts must be fixed to the machine before positioning the unit on the ground.
