Rigging, Lifting, and Moving the
Chiller/Heat Pump
The Thermafit™ modular water-cooled MWC and WXM
chiller/heat pump can be delivered to the customer's site as
individual modules. Limitations on the methods and
materials that can be used to rig, lift, or move a chiller/heat
pump system or an individual module include:
Maintain the module in an upright position at all times.
Certain configurations of modules can be top-heavy.
Move modules slowly with consideration for each
module's center-of-gravity.
Rig, lift, and move by strapping and lifting using a
properly configured floor jack or fork lift or by overhead
means.
Position lifting beams or spreader beams to prevent
lifting straps from rubbing or contacting module side
panels or electrical boxes. Attach rigging bar on each
end of module where 1 3/8-inch holes are provided.
Do not use cables, chains, or any other type of
metalized strapping to lift a module.
Do not push a chiller/heat pump module while directly
in contact with the floor using manual or mechanical
means.
