6.1 OVERVIEW
This section provides general guidelines and recommendations for position-
ing or permanently installing the skid pumping system.
For permanent installation inside buildings, care must be taken to provide
proper ventilation for engine coolant and to prevent accumulation of exhaust
gases. Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly
poison. If an exhaust extension is required to ex ha use out of the building,
it is important to have it constructed to prevent excessive exhaust back
pressure.
6.2 FRAME MOUNTING
See Section 7, heading “Drawing Package” on page 73, located at the back
of this manual, for the required mounting specifications. The installation
drawing provides mounting configurations with bolt down specifications.
WARNINGS !
TO FULLY SUPPORT THE SKID ASSEMBLY USE ALL LIFTING LUGS, AS
ILLUSTRATED ON THE INSTALLATION DRAWING.
THE HALE SKID ASSEMBLY IS HEAVY AND BULKY. ADDING ACCESSORIES
(MANIFOLDS) INCREASES THE WEIGHT. CHECK YOUR BILL OF LADING
FOR THE APPROXIMATE WEIGHT. BE CERTAIN TO USE PROPER LIFTING
SUPPORT DEVICES (I.E., OVERHEAD CRANE, FORK LIFT, CHAINS, STRAPS,
ETC.) CAPABLE OF HANDLING THE LOAD WHEN MOVING THE SKID
ASSEMBLY.
General Mounting Suggestions
A concrete foundation is a desirable base for permanent installation.
The following is recommended for setting the foundation bolts. Use pipe
sleeve about 2-1/2” (64 mm) diameters larger than the bolt size.
1. Prepare the foundation - see Figure 6-1: “Recommended Permanent
Installation” on page 50.
