Compressor handling

3.1.1 Delivery

Please check whether the delivery is correct and complete. Any deficiency should be reported
immediately in writing. Standard delivery:
▪ Suction and discharge shut-off valves (service compressor 4M*S and 6M*S have blind flanges
instead of shut-off valves)
▪ Oil charge, oil sight glass
▪ Mounting kit
▪ Copeland compressor electronics module
▪ Holding charge up to 2.5 bar(g) (dry air)
Compressors are delivered on pallets. Cooling fans are delivered in separate boxes. Accessories
may be mounted or delivered loose. Solenoid valves are never mounted.

3.1.2 Transport and storage

WARNING
Risk of collapse! Personal injuries! Move compressors only with
appropriate mechanical or handling equipment according to weight. Keep in
the upright position. Respect stacking loads according to Figure 12. Check
the tilting stability and if needed take action to ensure the stability of the
stacked loads. Keep the packaging dry at all times.
Respect the maximum number of identical packages which may be stacked on one another,
where "n" is the limiting number:
▪
Transport: n = 1
▪
Storage: n = 1
Figure 12: Maximum stacking loads for transport and storage
NOTE: The compressor is pre-charged with dry air to avoid any moisture contamination.

3.1.3 Positioning and securing

IMPORTANT
Handling damage! Compressor malfunction! Only use the lifting eyes
whenever the compressor requires positioning. Using discharge or suction
connections for lifting may cause damage or leaks.
If possible, the compressor should be kept horizontal during handling.
For safety reasons two lifting eyes should be fitted before moving a compressor (½" - 13 UNC).
Otherwise refer to drawings in Figure 13 to see how to apply other lifting methods.
