Safety
Adequate precautions appropriate for the installation and location of these products should
be taken to safeguard the equipment and the premises from damage and the public from
possible injury. The procedures in this manual must be thoroughly reviewed prior to rigging
and assembly. Read all warnings, cautions, and notes detailed in the margins.
When the fan speed of the unit is to be changed from the factory set speed, including the
use of a variable speed device, steps must be taken to avoid operating at or near the fan’s
“critical speed” which could result in fan failure and possible injury or damage. Consult
with your local BAC Representative on any such applications.
Shipping
BAC Cooling Towers are factory assembled to assure uniform quality and minimum field
assembly. Models S15E/XES15E-x-06x and S15E/XES15E-x-07x ship in a single piece.
All other models ship in two sections per cell. For the dimensions and weights of a specific
unit or section, refer to the certified drawings.
