Safety Considerations

Application Engineering Glacier Series portable chillers are designed to provide safe and reliable
operation when installed and operated within design specifications, following national and local
safety codes.

To avoid possible personnel injury or equipment damage when installing, operating, or
maintaining this equipment, use good judgment and follow these safe practices:

; Follow all SAFETY CODES.
; Wear SAFETY GLASSES and WORK GLOVES.
; Disconnect and/or lock out power before servicing or maintaining the chiller.
; Use care when LOADING, UNLOADING, RIGGING, or MOVING this equipment.
; Operate this equipment within design specifications.
; OPEN, TAG, and LOCK ALL DISCONNECTS before working on equipment. You

should remove the fuses and carry them with you.

; Make sure the chiller and components are properly GROUNDED before you switch on

power.

; When welding or brazing in or around this equipment, make sure VENTILATION is

ADEQUATE. PROTECT adjacent materials from flame or sparks by shielding with sheet
metal. An approved FIRE EXTINGUISHER should be close at hand and ready for use if
needed.
