Inspection 
Responsibility should be assigned to a dependable 
individual at the job site to receive material. Each shipment 
should be carefully checked against the bill of lading. The 
shipping receipt should not be signed until all items listed on 
the bill of lading have been accounted for. 
Check carefully for concealed damage. Any shortage or 
damages should be reported to the delivering carrier. 
Damaged material becomes the delivering carrier's 
responsibility, and should not be returned to the manufacturer 
unless prior approval is given to do so. When uncrating, care 
should be taken to prevent damage. Heavy equipment should 
be left on units shipping base until it has been moved to the 
final location. 
System Warranty 
This equipment is designed to operate properly and 
produce rated capacity when installed in accordance with 
accepted industry standards. Failure to meet the following 
conditions may result in voiding of the system warranty: 
1. 
System piping must be installed following industry 
standards for good piping practices. 
2. 
System must be thoroughly leak checked before initial 
charging. 
3. Power supply to system must meet the following 
conditions: 
Installation 
NOTE: Installation and maintenance to be performed only by 
qualified personnel who are familiar with local codes 
and regulations, and experienced with this type of 
equipment. 
CAUTION: Sharp edges and coil surfaces are a potential 
injury hazard. Avoid contact with them. 
 
Unit Location 
Units are designed for outdoor application and may be 
mounted on a roof or concrete slab (ground level installation). 
Roof mounted units should be installed level on steel channels 
or an I-beam frame to support the unit above the roof. Use of 
vibration pads or isolators is recommended. The roof must be 
strong enough to support the weight of the unit. Concrete slabs 
used for unit mounting should be installed level and be properly 
supported to prevent settling. A one-piece concrete slab with 
footings extending below the frost line is recommended. 
The dry cooler should be located far enough away from 
any wall or other obstruction to provide sufficient clearance for 
air entrance. Do not attach ductwork to the coil inlet or fan 
outlet. Care should be taken to avoid air recirculation conditions 
that can be caused by sight screening, walls, etc. Also keep 
unit fan discharge away from any building air intakes. See 
page 10 for space and location requirements. 
 
Sound Vibration 
Units should be installed away from occupied spaces and 
above or outside of utility areas, corridors and auxiliary spaces 
to reduce the transmission of sound and vibration to occupied 
spaces. The refrigerant piping should be flexible enough to 
prevent the transmission of noise and vibration from the unit 
into the building. If the refrigerant lines are to be suspended 
from the structure of the building, isolation hangers should be 
used to prevent the transmission of vibration. Where piping 
passes through a wall, it is advisable to pack fiberglass and 
sealing compound around the lines to minimize vibration and 
retain flexibility in the lines. 
The unit needs to be secured in its final location. Holes 
are provided in the base runner for this purpose. 
WARNING: There may be more than one source of 
electrical current in this unit. Do not 
service before disconnecting all power 
supplies. 
a. 
Voltage for 208/230 motors not less than 
195 volts or more than 253 volts. 
b. 
All other voltages must not exceed +/- 10% 
of nameplate ratings. 
c. Phase imbalance not to exceed 2%. 
4. 
All controls and safety switch circuits properly 
connected per wiring diagram. 
5. 
Factory installed wiring must not be changed 
without written factory approval.
