Handling And Transport; Positioning - Desa BG Serie Manual De Instrucciones

Handling must be done by personnel with suitable equipment that has a lifting capacity adequate for the weight of the
heater.
If a forklift truck is used, widen the forks as far as possible. If a crane is used, hooking points are the eyes placed at the
top of the heat exchanger.

ATTENTION
Transport and handling must be done very carefully to avoid damage to the heater and danger to persons.
During transport and handling operations, do not stand near the heater.
If heaters are to be stacked, you must not stack more than one heater on another. Make sure the stacks created
are stable by carefully aligning the packages.
If a heater is to be moved by hand, make sure you have adequate personnel available with respect to the weight
of the heater, as shown in the paragraph "TECHNICAL DATA", and according to the route to be followed.
Wear protective gloves at all times during these operations.
The place of installation must be established by the plant designer or by a person competent in this field and must take
account of the technical requirements and of applicable Norms and Legislation, as usually specific authorisation are
needed (for example: urban planning, architectural rules, fire safety, environmental pollution, etc.).
The necessary authorisations should therefore be obtained before installing the heater.
For correct installation remember that the heaters must:
•
Be positioned on a surface that is level, dry and able to carry the weight.
•
Be positioned so that the distances allow correct airflow and allow normal operations of cleaning and
maintenance.
•
Be at safe distances from flammable materials.
•
Be near a chimney.
•
Allow easy maintenance and control operations.
•
Be placed in areas with ventilation openings according to applicable legislation.
Installation is NOT allowed:
•
In places where the atmosphere is aggressive.
•
In narrow spaces or where the heater sound emission could be amplified by reverberation or resonance.
•
In corners where there may be deposits of dust, leaves or other materials that could reduce the efficiency of
the heater by obstructing airways.
•
Outdoor.
•
In places with pressure drop conditions.
