Figure 1 – Lifting procedure
CAUTION
Do not use forklift trucks to lift the unit from below.
If equipment for lifting from above is not available, using rollers may move the unit.
The surface on which the unit is placed must be flat and strong enough to withstand the weight of the unit while
running. In order to reduce the transmission of vibrations to the supporting structures, fit shock absorbers in every
fastening point. Rubber shock absorbers are recommended for units installed on the ground, spring shock absorbers for
units installed on roofs. Open spaces around the unit must be provided for in order to allow for the passage of necessary
airflow and in order to allow normal maintenance to be carried out (as shown on general catalogues).
IMPORTANT: Make sure that during transport the unit ALWAYS remains in the correct position!
For example horizontal positioning of the unit can lead to irreversible damage to the compressors.
Damage arising from incorrect transport will not be under warranty by the manufacturer.
Immediately report an incorrect receipt of goods.
An arrow positioned upward indicates the vertical position of the unit.
4.2 MINIMUM SPACE REQUIREMENTS
Dimensional drawing shall be respected to avoid:
• Noise
• Incorrect heat exchange and ventilation
• Difficult maintenance or inaccessibility to components
It is fundamental to respect minimum distances on all units, in order to ensure optimum ventilation for
the condenser coils. Limited installation space could reduce the normal air flow, thus significantly reducing
the unit performance and considerably increasing consumption of electrical energy.
