HANDLING AND STORAGE

DELIVERY AND STORAGE INSPECTION

To ensure consistent quality and maximum reliability, all units are tested and inspected before leaving the factory. Standard units are shipped completely assembled and containing refrigerant under pressure. Units are shipped without export crating unless this has been specified on the Sales Order.

Units with remote evaporators will have the chiller and remote evaporator charged with nitrogen.

If the unit is to be put into storage, prior to installation, the following precautions should be observed:

•Unit must be “blocked” so that the base is not permitted to sag or bow.

•Ensure that all openings, such as water connections, are securely capped.

•Do not store where exposed to ambient air tempera- tures exceeding 110°F (43°C).

•The condensers should be covered to protect the fins from potential damage and corrosion, particularly where building work is in progress.

•The unit should be stored in a location where there is minimal activity in order to limit the risk of ac- cidental physical damage.

•To prevent inadvertent operation of the pressure relief devices the unit must not be steam cleaned.

•It is recommended that the unit is periodically in- spected during storage.

Remove any transit packing and inspect the unit to en- sure that all components have been delivered and that no damage has occurred during transit. If any damage is evident, it should be noted on the carrier's freight bill and a claim entered in accordance with the instructions given on the advice note.

Major damage must be reported immediately to your local YORK representative.

MOVING THE CHILLER

Prior to moving the unit, ensure that the installation site is suitable for installing the unit and is capable of supporting the weight of the unit and all associated services.

The units are designed to be lifted using cables. A spreader bar or frame 88" (2250 mm) wide should be used in order to prevent damage to the unit from the lifting chains (See Figures 3 and 4).

Units are provided with lifting eyes extending from the sides of the base frame which can be attached to directly using shackles or safety hooks (See Figure 4).

The unit must only be lifted by the base frame at the points provided. Never move the unit on rollers, or lift the unit using a forklift truck.

Care should be taken to avoid damaging the condenser cooling fins when moving the unit.
