FORKLIFT PROTECTIONS
NEVER LIFT THE UNIT WITHOUT FORKLIFT PROTECTIONS
REMOVE THE FORKLIFT PROTECTIONS
BEFORE INSTALLATION
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Bef ore installing the equipment, the following points MUST
be checked:
- Have the f orklift protections been remov ed?
- Is there sufficient space for the equipment?
- Is the surface on which the equipment is to be
installed sufficiently solid to withstand its weight? A
detailed study of the f rame must be made bef orehand.
- Do the supply and return ductwork openings
excessiv ely weaken the structure?
- Are there any obstructing items which could hinder
the operation of the equipment?
- Does the electrical power av ailable correspond to the
equipment's electrical specifications?
- Is drainage provided for the condensate?
- Is there sufficient access for maintenance?
- Installation of the equipment could require different
lif ting methods which may vary with each installation
(helicopter or crane). Hav e these been ev aluated?
- Ensure that the unit is installed in accordance with the
installation instructions and local applicable codes.
- Check to ensure that the ref rigerant lines do not rub
against the cabinet or against other ref rigerant lines.
In general, make sure no obstacles (walls, trees or roof
ledges) are obstructing the duct connections or hindering
assembly and maintenance access.
INSTALLATION REQUIREM ENTS
The s urf ac e on whic h t he equipment is t o be ins t alled must
be clean and f ree of any obstacles which could hinder the
flow of air to the condensers:
-Av oid unev en surfaces
-Av oid installing two units s ide by s ide or c lose t o each
other as this may restrict the airflow to the condensers.
Bef ore installing a packaged Rooftop unit it is important to
understand:
- The direction of prevailing winds
-The direc t ion and pos it ion of air f lows.
-The ex t ernal dimensions of the unit and the
dimensions of the supply and return air connections.
-The arrangem ent of the doors and the s pac e required
to open them to access the various components.
CONNECTIONS
-Ensure that all the pipe-work cross ing walls or roofs
are secured, sealed and insulated.
-To av oid c ondens at ion problems, make sure that all
pipes are insulated according to the temperatures of
fluids and type of rooms.
NOTE: The AQUILUX protection sheets f itted to the f inned
surfaces must be removed prior to st art up.
