Setup and assembly
If an air handling unit is shipped in several parts, you
have to erect and assemble it on site. The arrangement
of the AHU casing units is given on the order-specific
approval drawing.
Conformity assessment
If components or devices which cannot in themselves
perform a specific application (partly completed machi-
nery) are incorporated into fully functional machinery,
the individual who performs the incorporation or
assembly is responsible for the conformity assessment,
for creating the declaraion of conformity and for
attaching the CE mark.
4.1 Safety notes
Setup and assembly
WARNING!
Risk to life from incorrect setup and assembly!
The incorrect setup and assembly of AHU casing
units can lead to potentially fatal situations and
cause considerable damage to property. Incorrect
setup and assembly will also impair the function of
the unit.
–
Air handling units must only be set up and
assembled by HVAC technicians.
Working at height
WARNING!
Risk of a fall when you work at height!
Working at height without using any fall protection
equipment, or using unsuitable or damaged equip-
ment to get up to where you work at height, may lead
to yourself or others falling from height; people on
the ground may be at risk from falling parts or tools.
This can cause serious or even fatal injuries.
–
Only use equipment that is suitable, stable and
strong enough for the job, maintained and
checked regularly.
–
Stop materials or objects from falling.
–
Wear safety shoes, protective clothing and a
hard hat.
–
Wear a safety harness.
Interconnecting units and systems
WARNING!
Risk of injury from interconnecting different
units or systems!
Connecting an air handling unit to other units or sys-
tems (e.g. ductwork, pumps, refrigeration systems)
can lead to dangerous situations and eventually
cause serious or even fatal injuries.
–
If you have to connect other units or systems to
the air handling unit, connect them professio-
nally.
–
The system owner/HVAC contractor is respon-
sible for the planning and installation of any addi-
tional safeguards.
Sharp edges, sharp corners and thin sheet metal
parts
CAUTION!
Danger of injury from sharp edges, sharp cor-
ners and thin sheet metal parts!
Sharp edges, sharp corners and thin sheet metal
parts of the heat exchanger or of the cooling or
heating coil may cause cuts or grazes.
–
Be careful when working on these components.
–
Wear protective gloves, safety shoes and a hard
hat.
4.2 Requirements for the installation
location
DANGER!
Risk of injury from an unsuitable installation
location!
Do not install the AHU in a location that can be
accessed by everybody.
AHUs may have lockable doors, yet a risk of injury,
vandalism, burglary etc. remains.
Install the AHU in a location that can only be
accessed by authorised persons.
