Transporting and installing the dryer
Requirements for the installation site
The conditions at the installation site have a large influence on the functional
capability of the dryer and the service life of the drying agent. In order to ensure a
mode of operation, which is as continuous as possible, and low maintenance, the
installation site must meet the following requirements:
The installation site must be located within a building.
The ambient temperature must not drop below +15 °C.
Naked flame and smoking are prohibited at the installation location.
When selecting the installation location, take account of the fact that the noise
emissions of the dryer may briefly rise above 95 dB(A) (further information
about noise emissions can also be found on page 37).
The installation area must be level and firm. It must have the necessary
carrying capacity for the weight of the dryer. The weight of the dryer is
specified in the technical data section of the annex.
The dryer should be installed with sufficient spacing (min. 1 m) at the top,
sides, and rear, in order to be able to carry out maintenance work and change
the drying agent without any hindrances.
If in doubt, the installation site must be inspected by specialists. If you have any
queries in this regard, please contact the manufacturer (for details see page 8).
Transportation using lifting or forklift truck
Warning against damage to property!
The dryer is delivered upright on its side on a transportation pallet.
Therefore, always transport the dryer on a lifting or forklift truck.
► Secure the dryer on the lifting or forklift truck against sliding movements.
► Transport the dryer to its installation site.
Installing and anchoring the dryer
Setup
► Remove the packaging of the dryer.
Danger of tipping over!
The dryer must always be transported upright. However, the center of
gravity of the dryer is high on the unit, so there is a danger of it tipping
over. When attaching lifting gear to the dryer, pay careful attention to its
center of gravity!
► Hammer a suitable lifting bar around the stand profile and the cross strut.
► Position the dryer to it´s installation site.
