Mounting and Placement

Outdoor, air-cooled condensers are designed for
mounting to a flat surface. Condenser(s) must not be near
steam, hot air or fume exhausts. Avoid overhead
obstructions. Ensure the unit is not located above or near
noise sensitive areas. If possible, make use of terrain
features such as trees and buildings to provide a shaded
location. This will minimize the solar load on the unit.
Avoid ground level sites that are accessible to the public.
Ensure the mounting location can support the weight of
the equipment. Refer to the installation drawing for the
non-charged system weight.
When installing the unit on a roof, ensure the weight is
adequately distributed to the load bearing points. For
ground mounted units, install a concrete slab as shown in
Figure 4. The slab should extend below the frost line and
be at least 2 inches higher than the surrounding grade. The
slab should extend at least 2 inches beyond the outer
profile of the condenser on all sides.
Ensure the condenser legs are fully extended to optimize
air flow. Secure the unit with fasteners (field supplied by
others) to prevent the system from moving during
operation. To reduce the vibration transmission to the
mounting surface it is recommended that vibration
isolators (field supplied by others) be inserted between the
mounting rails and the base as shown in
