II.3.1.2
Lifting and handling
ATTENTION!
The unit was not designed to be lifted with a forklift
truck.
DANGER!
The unit must be handled with care, in order to
prevent damaging the external structure and the
internal mechanical and electrical components.
Also make sure that there are no obstacles or
people blocking the route, to avoid the danger of
collision or crushing. Make sure that there is no
possibility of the lifting-gear overturning.
Pass the straps through the slots in the base of the unit, having first
checked their suitability (capacity and wear and tear). Tension the
straps, checking that they remain properly attached to the upper edge
of the passage; lift the unit a few centimetres and, only after checking
the stability of the load, move the unit carefully to the installation site.
Lower the unit carefully and fix it into place. Be careful not to interpose
body parts one handling in order to eliminate any possible risk of
crushing or any other injury if the load drops or shifts suddenly.
SECTION II: INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
II.3.1.3
Storage conditions
The units cannot be stacked. The temperature limits for storage are: -20
÷ 50°C.
II.4
INSTALLATION
DANGER!
Installation must only be carried out by skilled
technicians, qualified to work on air conditioning
and refrigeration systems. An incorrect installation
could cause the unit to malfunction with a
significant deterioration in performance.
DANGER!
The unit must be installed according to national or
local regulations in force at the time of installation.
Some internal parts of the unit can cause cuts. Use
suitable individual protective equipment.
If the unit is not secured on the antivibration mounts, it must be firmly
anchored to the floor once it is placed on the ground.
It must not be installed on brackets or shelves.
II.4.1
Installation site requirements
The installation site must be chosen in accordance with the provisions
of Standard EN 378-1 and in line with those of Standard
EN 378-3. When selecting the installation site, risks posed by an
accidental leakage of refrigerant gas from the unit must also be taken
into consideration. Do not install the unit near flammable materials or
others that could cause a fire. Provide the specific fire-prevention safety
devices.
II.4.2
Indoor installation
The technical rooms intended for the installation of cooling units must
always be constructed in compliance with accident prevention
legislation in force in the country in question.
Technical rooms are not normally constructed exclusively for the
installation of cooling machines. In many cases, there can also be other
equipment present, such as burners that run on gas, solid fuel or liquid
fuel, with a consequent increase in risks to personal safety.
II.4.3
Clearances and positioning
IMPORTANT!
Before installing the unit, verify the noise limits
allowed in the place in which it will be used.
IMPORTANT!
The unit must be positioned in compliance with the
minimum recommended clearance, bearing in mind
the access to the water and electrical connections.
IMPORTANT
If the technical spaces are not complied with during
installation, then unit could malfunction with an
increase in absorbed power and a significant
reduction in cooling capacity.
The unit is designed for indoor installation. The unit must be installed in
compliance with the minimum recommended clearance, bearing in mind
the access to the water and electrical connections on the right side of
the machine. The unit should be correctly levelled and positioned on a
supporting surface capable of sustaining its full weight. It must not be
installed on brackets or shelves.
To allow the EQU-PF - EQUH-PF to run smoothly it is recommended
not to mix the drawn air with the expelled air, therefore it is
recommended for the fan supply air to be channelled out of the room
where the unit is installed.
