C.) The basin floor should be properly pitched and finished to prevent puddling.
D.) The cross members containing the anchoring studs to receive the air cleaner base frame must be even and level to provide a proper foundation for the metal framework base.
Where the installation site is not suitable for a poured concrete basin, rust resistant metal pans may be used. The metal should withstand the weight of service personnel in addition to the weight of the unit.
Each installation varies according to needs, but normally the controller is located near the air cleaner. Ideal mounting height is at eye level for ease in reading the instrumentation and to facilitate service.
For ease in maintenance and component removal, adequate space, 39” Minimum Required, must be provided in front of all access doors, motors, pump and accessory equipment.
3. Outdoor Installations
Requirements for outdoor protection vary in accordance to climate and equipment component arrangement for the particular job. The best approach, for equipment protection, is the construction of a heated shed or building over the installation. As an alternative, the installing contractor should treat the equipment as required to meet the specific needs.
Controller/PWM Power Supplies
As the controller/power supplies are designed for remote mounting, they can be, in many cases, located indoors and still be reasonably close to the main cabinet. If located outdoors with the cabinet, it must be weather protected.
Contact the local Trion Sales Office or the factory if questions arise, or any additional information is required.
SECTION II INSTALLATION
FOR THE INSTALLING CONTRACTOR
1. Unpack and Inspect
At the time the unit is received, all shipping containers and their contents should be examined for damage. Any damage occurring in shipment must be immediately reported to the carrier, an inspection report completed and a claim filed at the receiving point.
The number of shipping containers included in the shipment is dependent upon the unit size and type. When packaging the material for shipment, consideration is given to grouping the components into the installation categories in which they will be used. The packing list included with shipment identifies the various items to a specific box number. In general, the grouping is as follows:
(A)Framework
(B)
(C)Controller with Power Supplies
(D)Accessories
For the protection of the components, it is recommended that those materials not immediately needed for installation be stored in the container in which they are received in a safe, dry and clean location. This is particularly true with the ionizing- collecting cells, which may be damaged when not properly handled.
2. Assemble Framework
The base frame, two sides and top are match marked on the air entering side of the air cleaner at the factory prior to shipment. See Figure 5.
(A)Position the base frame on the drain basin. Make sure it is located with the marking “BOTTOM FRONT” on the air entering side. The anchoring studs in the drain basin should be located on the inside of the frame channels and the entire frame should be level. Shim as necessary.
(B)Secure the base as illustrated. It is important that the studs do not protrude above the base frame channel. Cut top of studs, if necessary. Each anchor should be treated to prevent rust.
(C)Attach the side and top panels, match marking where the pieces join on the air entering side; A to A, B to B, etc. The required fasteners are packaged and marked for the framework.
(D)After the outside frame structure is complete, position and secure the intermediate cell supports. The side to receive the air bypass strips marked “FRONT” should be positioned toward the air entering side.
3. Attach Adjoining Ductwork
Depending on the application, the installation plan may or may not call for adjoining ductwork on the air entering and/or air leaving sides of the cabinet.
When adjoining ducting is to be installed, attach to the flanges on the air entering and air leaving sides of the unit. Maintain structural squareness during attachment.
The seam should be made air and watertight by caulking or gasketing.
The seam between the concrete drain basin and the metal work must be caulked or grouted to form a good watertight seal.
When a blower is installed downstream from the Trion cabinet, the ducting between the cabinet and the blower
