INSTALLATION
2.1
Receiving the Equipment
Your system has been tested and inspected prior to shipment.
To ensure that your equipment is received in excellent
condition, make a visual inspection of the equipment
immediately upon delivery. Carefully remove the shipping
container and all protective packaging. Open the electric
box and thoroughly inspect the unit for any signs of transit-
incurred damage. If there is shipping damage, it must be
noted on the freight carrier’s delivery forms before signing
for the equipment. Any freight claims must be done through
the freight carrier.
STULZ ships all equipment FOB factory. STULZ is not liable
for any equipment damage while in transit. STULZ can assist
in the claim filing process with the freight carrier. Should any
damage be present, notify STULZ Product Support prior to
attempting any repairs. Refer to Section 5.0of this manual for
instructions.
Check the equipment against the packing slip to see if the
shipment is complete. Report any discrepancies to the
appropriate authority.
A Data Package has been sent with your unit. It contains this
manual, system drawings, applicable SDS’s and other
appropriate instructions based on the configuration of
your unit and options selected. The data package has been
shipped with your unit in a clear plastic bag. These documents
need to be kept with the unit for future reference.
2.2
Site Preparation
Our Air Cooled Condensers are designed with easy service
access in mind. Install the condenser in a secure location
where it cannot be tampered with and the main power
disconnect switch cannot be inadvertently turned Off. Allow
access to the unit for routine operation, servicing and for
necessary maintenance. The components on outdoor
condensers are accessed through the top by removing the fan
assembly panel.
The electric box is accessed at the header end of the unit.
Locate the unit where the fan(s) are not likely to draw dirt and
debris into the coil fins. Refer to the installation drawing
provided with your unit for the dimensions.
NOTE: Working clearance requirements need to be
established prior to mounting the unit. Refer to local and
national electrical codes.
CAUTION
The condenser must be kept level to operate properly.
2.3
Rigging
The unit must be lifted vertically and kept in a level position.
Move the unit with a suitable device such as a forklift or
attach an overhead lifting sling. The unit may be lifted with an
overhead sling attached to the top of the mounting support
legs. Use an appropriate lifting device that has the capacity
to safely handle the weight of the equipment. A weight table
is provided on the installation drawing supplied with your unit.
If using an overhead lifting device, use spreader bars that
exceed the cabinet width to avoid crushing the sides of the
unit.
Remote condensers are shipped on a skid to facilitate
moving prior to installation. The unit should always be stored
in a dry location prior to installation. To prevent damage
when lifting the unit, all available lifting eyes on the cabinet
must be used.
CAUTION
Ensure the mounting legs are fully extended when the unit
is raised.
CAUTION
Take care not to damage the exposed coil fins on the
underside of the cabinet when moving the unit.
2.4
Mounting and Placement
Outdoor, air cooled condensers are designed for mounting
to a flat surface. Condenser(s) must not be near steam, hot
air or fume exhausts. Avoid overhead obstructions. Ensure
the unit is not located above or near noise sensitive areas. If
possible, make use of terrain features
