2. SAFETY The lubricant used is polyester oil. Please refer to the information provided on the compressor data plate. For further information regarding the characteristics of the refrigerant and oil used, refer to the safety data sheets available from the refrigerant and oil manufacturers. Main Ecological Information Regarding the Types of refrigerants Fluids used.
2.5.1 Inhalation A high atmospheric concentration can cause anaesthetic effects with possible loss of consciousness. Prolonged exposure may lead to irregular heartbeat and cause sudden death. Higher concentrations may cause asphyxia due to the reduced oxygen content in the atmo- sphere.
3. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS 3.1 Unit description controlled or water vapor condensation should be prevented. These units are particularly indicated for archives, ironing rooms, bookstores, cheese factories, underground rooms, cellars and industrial sites where high humidity level is present. This series comprises 5 models which cover a capacity range from 73 to 240 l/24h.
3.1.10 Test All the units are fully assembled and wired at the factory, the refrigerant circuit is pressure tested to check for leaks then evacuated and charged with the correct weight of R410a. They are all fully operational tested before shipment. They all conforms to European Directives and are individually marked with the CE label and provided with Conformity Declaration.

3.3.3 Supply fan Microswitches (Only with VECE) the displacement of the micro switch from one number to the next or previous leads to an increase/decrease of the available static pressure R1 R10 R2 R3 R4 R5 R6 R7 R8 R9 The use of the minimum speed ( 1 and 2 ) must be carefully evaluated by skilled personnel because the operation at very low fan speed could result in malfunction or even damage to the unit.
3.4 Operation limits Room temperature (°C) The units MUST be used within the operation limit indicated in the diagrams (see above). the warranty will be inva- lidated if the units are used in ambient conditions outside the limits reported. If there is the necessity to operate in Units are designed to operates with hot water coil supply temperature variables from 55°C to 80°C The units are designed to operate within false ceiling and/or heated technical room.
4. INSTALLATION Before undertaking any task the operator must be fully trained in the operation of the machines to be used and their controls. They must also have read and be fully conversant with all operating instructions. All maintenance must be performed by TRAINED personnel and be in accordance with all national and local regu- lations.
4.4 Inspection of the labels on the unit, and to take any possible precautions of the case. Not observing the rules reported on this manual can create dangerous situations. After receiving the unit, immediately check its integrity. The unit left the factory in perfect conditions; any eventual damage must be questioned to the carrier and recorded on the Delivery Note before it is signed.
4.8 Location and minimum technical clearances The unit has to be installed such that maintenance and repair is possible. The warranty does not cover costs for the provision of lifting apparatus, platforms or other lifting systems required to perform repairs during warranty period. The installation site should be chosen in accordance with EN 378-1 and 378-3 standards.
