Inspection
Upon receipt of the equipment, carefully check the shipment against
the bill of lading. Make sure all units have been received. Inspect
the packaging of each unit, and inspect each unit for damage.
Insure that the carrier makes proper notation of any shortages or
damage on all copies of the freight bill and completes a common
carrier inspection report. Concealed damage not discovered during
unloading must be reported to the carrier within 15 days of receipt
of shipment. If not fi led within 15 days, the freight company can
deny the claim without recourse. Note: It is the responsibility of
the purchaser to fi le all necessary claims with the carrier. Notify
your equipment supplier of all damage within fi fteen (15) days of
shipment.
Storage
Equipment should be stored in its original packaging in a clean,
dry area. Store units in an upright position at all times. Stack
units a maximum of 3 units high.
Unit Protection
Cover units on the job site with either the original packaging or an
equivalent protective covering. Cap the open ends of pipes stored
on the job site. In areas where painting, plastering, and/or spraying
has not been completed, all due precautions must be taken to avoid
physical damage to the units and contamination by foreign material.
Physical damage and contamination may prevent proper start-up
and may result in costly equipment clean-up.
Examine all pipes, fi ttings, and valves before installing any of the
system components. Remove any dirt or debris found in or on
these components.
Pre-Installation
Installation, Operation, and Maintenance instructions are
provided with each unit. Horizontal equipment is designed for
installation above false ceiling or in a ceiling plenum. Other
unit confi gurations are typically installed in a mechanical room.
The installation site chosen should include adequate service
clearance around the unit. Before unit start-up, read all manuals
and become familiar with the unit and its operation. Thoroughly
check the system before operation.
Prepare units for installation as follows:
1. Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate with
ordering and shipping information to verify that the correct
unit has been shipped.
2. Keep the cabinet covered with the original packaging until
installation is complete and all plastering, painting, etc. is
fi nished.
3. Verify refrigerant tubing is free of kinks or dents and that it
does not touch other unit components.
4. Inspect all electrical connections. Connections must be clean
and tight at the terminals.
CAUTION! DO NOT store or install units in corrosive
environments or in locations subject to temperature or
humidity extremes. Corrosive conditions and high temperature
or humidity can signifi cantly reduce performance, reliability,
and service life.
CAUTION! CUT HAZARD - Failure to follow this caution may
result in personal injury. Sheet metal parts may have sharp
edges or burrs. Use care and wear appropriate protective
clothing, safety glasses and gloves when handling parts and
servicing.
