Using the additional communication cable
Use the additional communication cable during installation or
maintenance to connect the panel so as to review the parameters and
status of the unit.
6-8kW
10-14-16Kw
If the unit is not fixed to anti-vibration mounts (KSA), once it has been
set on the ground, it must be solidly bolted down to the floor using M8
metric threaded bolts.
II.6.1
INSTALLATION SITE REQUIREMENTS
The installation site must be chosen according to the provisions of
Standard EN 378-1 and the requirements of Standard EN 378-3. The
installation site must however consider the risks posed by an accidental
leakage of the refrigerant gas inside the unit.
II.6.1.1 Outdoor installation
Machines designed for outdoor installation must be positioned so as to
avoid any refrigerant gas leakage entering the building and posing a
hazard to people's health.
If the unit is installed on terraces or building roofs, adequate safety
measures must be taken in order to ensure that any gas leaks cannot
enter the building through ventilation systems, doors or similar
openings.
If the unit is installed inside a walled-in structure (usually for aesthetic
reasons), these structures must be suitably ventilated in order to
prevent the formation of dangerous concentrations of refrigerant gas.
II.6.2
CLEARANCES AND POSITIONING
IMPORTANT!
Before installing the unit, check the noise limits
allowed in the place where it will be used.
IMPORTANT!
The unit should be positioned to comply with the
minimum recommended technical spaces, bearing
in mind the access to water and electrical
connections.
IMPORTANT!
If technical spaces are not maintained during
installation, it could cause malfunction with an
increase in absorbed power and a considerable
reduction in the cooling capacity.
IMPORTANT!
Do not install in completely walled-in places that do
not allow any gas leaks to disperse properly.
IMPORTANT!
Do not install in places that are potentially
flammable or explosive or that are subject to dirt, a
saline atmosphere and pollution.
Correct installation and positioning includes levelling the unit on a
surface capable of bearing its weight.
IMPORTANT!
Incorrect positioning or installation of the unit may
amplify noise levels and vibrations generated
during operation.
When installing the unit, bear the following in mind:
non-soundproofed reflecting walls near the unit may increase the
total sound pressure level reading near the appliance by as much as
3 dB(A) for every surface;
install suitable anti-vibration mounts under the unit to avoid
transmitting vibrations to the building structure;
make all water connections using elastic joints; pipes must be firmly
supported by solid structures.
If the pipes are routed through walls or panels, insulate with elastic
sleeves. If, after installation and start-up of the unit, structural vibrations
are observed in the building which provoke such strong resonance that
noise is generated in other parts of the building, consult a qualified
sound technician for a complete analysis of the problem.
