    HHCompact Air Handling Units 2.4 - Offloading and hoisting Depending on the dimensions of the AHU and the situation on site, the AHUs are supplied in previously agreed transport sections. Before proceeding with the transport and installation of the casing sections, always consult the applicable dimensional drawings that give the dimensions and weights of the sections, as well as the installation sequence. The weight is given on each transport section. Each transport section is equipped with a subframe with four lifting points. Thesepoints are marked by the label shown below. 2.6 - Storage The packaging in which the AHU is supplied can cause condensation to be formed between the packaging and the AHU, if the unit is stored in an unconditioned place. For offloading as well as hoisting lifting cables can be If the AHU is not immediately used it is recommended to attached to the lifting bars. Evenly positioned spacer bars store it in a conditioned location on-site.
