Installation instructions

General comments
The SOC series units are outdoor units of a split air
conditioner which are equipped with an axial and vertical
discharge fan, and are to be installed directly outdoors.
For operation, these units must be connected, electrically
and with regard to the refrigerant, to the corresponding indoor
unit.
Protection of the environment
Packing
The packing material is recyclable. It should be disposed of
in accordance with the residual collection regulations estab-
lished.
Disposal of the unit
After a long service life, and upon disassembling the unit, its
components should be recuperated ecologically. The cooling
circuit is full of HCFC-22 refrigerant that should be salvaged
and, finally, returned to the gas manufacturer for recycling.
Oil will remain in the airtight compressor and, therefore, it will
be returned along with the sealed circuit.
The air conditioning unit will be deposited wherever estab-
lished by the local authorities for its selective disposal.
Warning signals
The following signs indicate the presence of potentially
dangerous conditions for users or service personnel.
Whenever found on the unit itself, keep in mind the warning
indicated by each one.
This sign indicates an electrical risk or
danger.
Attention: The unit has a remote control
system and can start automatically. Two
minutes prior to having access to the
interior, the power supply should be dis-
connected so as to avoid any contact
with the fan turbine.
Attention: It is compulsory to read the
instructions prior to any handling.
Attention: Fan in operation.
Attention: No to touch hot surfaces.
Attention: Possible gas leakage due to
inadequate handling.
Attention: Transmission by belt and pul-
ley.
Transportation
The outdoor units should always be transported in vertical
position so as to avoid oil leakage from the compressor. If, for
any reason, this position has to be changed, it should be done
only for the time strictly necessary.
Location
The location chosen should allow permanent access for
service maintenance, either through the side panels or the
rear panel.
The outdoor unit should be installed directly outdoors.
Empty spaces
Empty space should be left in the installation of each unit for
the following:
a) Outdoor unit air intake and discharge.
b) Connection of the drainage tubing and wiring.
c) Air ducts.
d) Maintenance service.
e) Electrical supply.
For proper operation, the minimum distances indicated in the
general dimensions drawings should always be respected
with regard to obstacles that could obstruct the free circula-
tion of air, or any service work.
