Lifting Points
To determine the required lifting cable lengths and whether
four-point or six-point lifting is required, use Tables 4 and 5
and Figure 29.
Referring to Figure 29, note that dimension A is the distance
between the outer lifting points. The four outer rigging cables
must be equal to or longer than dimension A. Dimension B
shows the minimum distance between the outer and the inner
lifting points for six-point lifting. Use this to roughly
determine the required length of the middle cables for six-
point lifting. Determine dimension A by subtracting
dimensions X and Y from dimension Z (e.g., A = Z – X – Y).
• Where:
• Z = Total unit length in inches
(refer to certified drawings for this dimension).
• X = Outdoor/return air section length (refer to Figure 29 and
Table 5 for this dimension).
• If A 288" (7315 mm), 4-point lifting is sufficient.
• If A > 288" (7315 mm), 6-point lifting is required.
