Receiving the unit
The condition of the equipment must be inspected as soon as
it is received. Check that it has not been damaged in transit and
that there are no accessories missing. Indicate any damaged
or missing items on the delivery slip and notify the carrier of
said damaged or missing items by registered letter within three
days of delivery.
Each unit has a manufacturer's plate on the front displaying an
identification number. Please state this number in all
correspondence.
Important: The unit must not be stored in an area exposed to violent
winds over 188 km/h and must be secured to the ground.
Unloading
The recipient shall be responsible for unloading the units and
providing the necessary handling equipment (see the section
on" Handling").
Think safety
... during installation
Read the instructions and keep them for future use
Respect the instructions for using slings (see the labels
on the unit)
Check that there is an emergency stop
Fit shut-off valves.
Prohibit public access.
... in an emergency
Switch off the electrical supply.
The process should not be jeopardised if the emergency stop
devices are activated.
Warranty
Unless otherwise indicated, our equipment is guaranteed for
12 months after commissioning and no more than 18 months
after invoicing. Our guarantee is limited to the replacement of
defective parts used in the intended conditions. In particular it
does not cover normal wear and tear, nor damage due to
corrosion, clogging or the use of fluids incompatible with the
materials, nor indirect damage. Synthetic seals with bonding
agent (asbestos-free seals) are guaranteed for
6 months.
Storage
●
Store the units in a dry room, protected from inclement
weather, at a temperature b5 and +50°C, placing
them so that they are not in contact with a wall or with each
other, and do not directly touch the floor; protect them against
impacts and ensure that they only support their own weight.
●
They must rest on blocks which are adjusted correctly to
ensure they are completely stable and level.
●
Prepare the ground to ensure that there will be
no subsidence.
●
Leave the blanking trim for the pipes in place before
connecting the unit.
●
For prolonged storage under humid conditions, it may be
necessary to dry the motors in an oven before
recommissioning.
●
For
long-term storage
(over 3 months), fill the exchanger
with an inert gas and seal the pipes hermetically to avoid any
condensation and subsequent oxidation (see also the section
on "Maintenance of motors").
Irrespective of the storage conditions, we recommend that
several rotations of the motors be made every
6 months.
Installation
Warning for the installer
●
Before any work is performed, read this guide carefully and
ensure it is kept safe for future use. Safety information must be
adhered to.
●
Refer to the technical documentation or the order documents
to find out the electrical specifications and the sound levels.
●
The units must not be run under operating conditions which
are more restrictive than those it was designed for (pressure,
temperature, type and circulation of fluids).
●
For units installed in European Union countries, ensure that
the entire installation complies with the applicable directives
and legal instruments.
Selecting a location
Particular care must be taken when choosing where to place
the unit. Take into account the precautions for installation given
below:
●
Block public access to the facility.
●
This unit is designed to operate outdoors, in a tertiary or
industrial environment. You must nevertheless ensure that all
conditions have been taken into account (negative outdoor
temperatures, corrosive atmosphere, altitude).
●
It is essential to secure the unit to the ground if there is
a risk that it may be exposed to winds over 188 km/h.
Chiller's location
●
Since normal use of these units does not require them
to be resistant to their seismic activity, its seismic
resistance has not been assessed.
●
The area where the unit will be sited must be completely
accessible so that maintenance and service operations can be
carried out with ease. Ensure sufficient space is provided for
service operations. Leave free space in front of the safety and
control devices.
(see the paragraph on “Location” with diagram)
●
Waste from vegetation is a major factor contributing to the
clogging of the coil, avoid installing the unit close to deciduous
trees.
●
Do not install the unit near hot air extraction duct outlets.
●
The distances between the unit and anything which may
impede the intake and discharge of air must be adhered to.
Location
(Clearances to be maintained)
It is important for the chillers to be installed with the necessary
clearances:
●
So that air discharged by the condenser is not drawn back in.
●
So that maintenance can be carried out on the chiller.
