5. Positioning the Chiller
Place the Chiller in an area shielded from any possible manufacturing residuals (shavings, dust, etc.) and well-ventilated, away
from heat sources and direct influence of sun light ; if possible, near the user system, in order to avoid load losses along the
hydraulic connection pipes. Use the adjustable feet to level off the cooling unit.
The customer has to place a suitable room at disposal, as shown in the figure:
Picture 2 – Room minimum dimensions, x=h=1.5 m
According to the CEI EN 60204-1, the unit is provided with a lockable main switch which is not positioned at a minimum distance
of 0,6 m from the basement of the unit, so it's recommended to install the unit in a position that allows the main switch to maintain
that minimum distance from the floor.
CAUTION:
For standard unit the outdoor installation is absolutely forbidden, even if under a roof.
Only special designed outdoor units can be used in outdoor installation.
For regular maintenance or adjustment, the chiller shall be located between 0,3 m and 1,0 m above the servicing
level.
6. Foundation
PFANNENBERG chillers should be set on a concrete slab. The slab should extend a minimum of 30cm (12 inches) beyond the
perimeter of the Chiller to prevent damage from lawn maintenance equipment, etc. The Chiller, which should be level and
properly anchored, is provided with 4 antivibration dampers on the bottom of the unit, which allow the support and the fixing of
the Chiller and to dampen the vibrations and decrease the noise during the operation.
