5. PREPARATION FOR INSTALLING THE
EQUIPMENT

Site recommendations

When deciding the location of the equipment and planning its installation, it is recommended to follow a series
of guidelines derived from its characteristics.
CAUTION
To guarantee proper electrical installation, it is very important to comply with the bend radius of the
cable. The personnel must ensure the cables enter the equipment perpendicularly and the spacing between
them is appropriate.
Avoid corrosive environments that may affect the equipment´s proper functioning.
NOTICE
The instructions given in this section must not replace in any way the mandatory regulations of the
country in which the equipment will be installed.
Prior to installation, a geotechnical study of the terrain where the equipment will be installed must be
carried out to determine its characteristics and to decide the most suitable type of foundation.
It is the installer's responsibility to design and build concrete foundations with the necessary piping and
ground network in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements.
Proper installation is absolutely necessary, and it is not within the scope of the manufacturer's
responsibility.
Soil
The soil should have the following characteristics:
• The soil must be dry, compacted, stable and homogeneous.
• The land will be gravel, ballast, or pebbles.
• The soil must have hard or medium harshness characteristics.
• The calculation of the maximum permissible pressure on the ground must comply with local and national
standards, as well as with any other requirements regarding natural disasters (hurricanes, earthquakes,
etc.) that may apply to the place of installation.
• Do not install on floodplains, neither in places where objects can fall on.
• The land should be provided with a drainage system, especially in locations with high water tables and/or
heavy rainfall.
