INSTALLATION
OVERVIEW
LOCATION
Air cooled
units must sit outside and be
anchored to a solid level surface. A
concrete pad is recommended. Location
should be free of grass and other debris
that could plug condenser fins.
Ensure minimum clearance* between
condenser intake side and any buildings,
walls, etc.
No walls or obstructions in front of the
unit: Louvered access side must be open
to free air. No roofs or overhangs above
chiller condenser.
Liquid cooled
chillers may be installed on
a concrete pad outdoors. A properly sized
pump and liquid cooling system for the
chiller condenser must be supplied by the
end user. Contact G&D Chillers for
additional information and assistance with
sizing.
ELECTRICAL
1. Supply unit with the proper voltage and protect against power spikes.
Use only copper wire. Size wire and according to any/all applicable
local and national codes. Refer to chart to the right for proper torque
values. Refer to spec sticker on control panel for all electrical ratings.
2. Field-installed service disconnect required
3. Unit must be properly grounded at the provided grounding lug.
If multiple ground wires are used, all wires must be twisted together
prior to tightening ground lug.
4. Use only hubs or fittings that maintain the same environmental ratings
as the enclosure.
5. When turning unit off for an extended length of time, leave power
energized. (This will leave the crankcase heater on and keep the
