SECTION 3 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
DELIVERY AND STORAGE
To ensure consistent quality and maximum reliability, all
units are tested and inspected before leaving the factory.
Units are shipped completely assembled and containing
refrigerant under pressure. Units are shipped without
export crating unless crating has been specified on the
Sales Order.
If the unit is to be put into storage, prior to installation,
the following precautions should be observed:
• The chiller 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
temperatures exceeding 43°C (110°F).
• The condensers should be covered to protect the
coils and fi ns 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
accidental 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
inspected during storage.
INSPECTION
Remove any transit packing and inspect the unit to
ensure 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 Johnson Controls representative.
MOVING THE CHILLER
Prior to moving the unit, ensure that the installation site
is suitable for installing the unit and is easily 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 should be used in order to prevent
damage to the unit from the lifting chains.
Units are provided with lifting eyes in the sides of the base
frame, which can be attached directly using shackles or
safety hooks (see Figure 4 for proper lifting .illustration.
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.
LIFTING WEIGHTS
For details of weights and weight distribution, refer to
the data shipped in the chiller information packet and
unit nameplate.
