34961A001 Compressor Vibration Isolator

Kit

The 34961A001 spring/grommet kit is designed to isolate vibrations common to most compressors away from the base of Magic-Pak units and building walls.

Some types of wall construction will be especially susceptible to vibration transmissions. In these instances, installers and building designers must make special considerations for isolating vibration.

Designing and constructing walls and wall openings in a particular manner to isolate vibration transmission is the recommended procedure for dealing with these instances. However, if further vibration isolation is necessary, the 34961A001 compressor vibration isolator kit should be used.

For instructions and recommendations on designing and constructing walls and wall openings, refer to the Magic-Pak Application Manual.

Installation

The Magic-Pak cooling chassis must be removed from the cabinet to perform the following installation procedures. Refer to the Chassis Removal section beginning on page 3-4 for instructions on proper chassis removal.

To install the 34961A001 kit:

1.Remove the factory-installed compressor mounting leg bolts from the base of the compressor.

2.Lift the compressor of the base of the chassis by inserting a large screwdriver or pry bar under the belly of the compressor.

3.Support the compressor by sliding a 3/4" to 1-1/4" thick wooden block or suitable material underneath the compressor belly.

The copper refrigerant tubing connected to the compressor will have some free movement. However, be careful not to kink or damage the tubing. Loss of refrigerant or lack of proper unit performance may result.

4.	Remove the factory-installed rubber grommets from the compressor
	mounting legs.
5.	Install the top rubber spacer in the compressor mounting legs.
6.	Insert the bottom rubber spacer into the bottom of the spring and
	slide the spring between the upper spacer and chassis base.
7.	Insert the metal sleeve through the top of the upper spacer, spring
	and lower spacer.
8.	Re-install the bolts removed in step 1.
