General Information
WARNING
Fiberglass Wool!
Exposition to glass wool fibers without all necessary
PPE equipment could result in cancer, respiratory, skin
or eye irritation, which could result in death or serious
injury. Disturbing the insulation in this product during
installation, maintenance or repair will expose you to
airborne particles of glass wool fibers and ceramic
fibers known to the state of California to cause cancer
through inhalation.
You MUST wear all necessary Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) including gloves, eye protection, a
NIOSH approved dust/mist respirator, long sleeves and
pants when working with products containing
fiberglass wool.
Precautionary Measures:
•
Avoid breathing fiberglass dust.
•
Use a NIOSH approved dust/mist respirator.
•
Avoid contact with the skin or eyes.Wear long-
sleeved, loose-fitting clothing, gloves, and eye
protection.
•
Wash clothes separately from other clothing; rinse
washer thoroughly.
•
Operations such as sawing, blowing, tear-out, and
spraying may generate fiber concentrations
requiring additional respiratory protection. Use the
appropriate NIOSH approved respirator.
First Aid Measures:
•
Eye Contact - Flush eyes with water to remove dust.
If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
•
Skin Contact -Wash affected areas gently with soap
and warm water after handling.
Jobsite Inspection
Always perform the following checks before accepting a
unit:
•
Verify that the nameplate data matches the data on the
sales order and bill of lading (including electrical data).
•
Verify that the power supply complies with the unit
nameplate specifications.
•
Visually inspect the exterior of the unit, for signs of
shipping damage. Do not sign the bill of lading
accepting the unit(s) until inspection has been
completed. Check for damage promptly after the
unit(s) are unloaded. Once the bill of lading is signed at
the jobsite, the unit(s) are now the property of the
SOLD TO party and future freight claims MAY NOT be
accepted by the freight company.
•
Verify that the refrigerant charge has been retained
during shipment by use of gauges. Access fittings are
WSHP-SVX02E-EN
located internal to the cabinet on the 5-ton through 20-
ton equipment.
•
After assuring that charge has been retained, reinstall
the caps to assure that refrigerant leakage does not
occur.
CAUTION
Microbial Growth!
Failure to follow instructions below could result in
odors and damage to the equipment and building
materials.
The floor or foundation must be level and the
condensate drain at the proper height for proper
drainage and condensate flow. Standing water and wet
surfaces inside the equipment can become an
amplification site for microbial growth (mold). If there
is evidence of microbial growth on the interior
insulation, it should be removed and replaced prior to
operating the system.
Jobsite Storage
This unit is intended for indoor use only. To protect the
unit from damage due to the elements, and to prevent
possible IAQ contaminant sources from growing, the unit
should be stored indoors. If indoor storage is not possible,
the following provisions for outdoor storage must be met:
•
Place the unit(s) on a dry surface or raise above the
ground to assure adequate air circulation beneath the
unit.
•
Cover the unit(s) with a waterproof tarp to protect them
from the elements.
•
Make provisions for continuous venting of the covered
units to prevent moisture from standing on the unit(s)
surfaces. Wet interior unit insulation can become an
amplification site for microbial growth (mold) which
has been determined to be a cause of odors and
serious health related indoor air quality problems.
•
Store units in the normal UP orientation to maintain oil
in the compressor.
•
Do not stack more than three units in total height for
the EXW* 5 and 10-ton configurations, and no more
than two units high for the EXW* configuration.
Unit Nameplate
The unit nameplate is located at the front of the unit. It
includes the unit model number, serial number, electrical
characteristics, refrigerant charge, and other pertinent
unit data.
Compressor Nameplate
The nameplate for the compressors are located on the
compressor shell.
