Health and Safety
General information
Before Installation
•
On receipt of the product, all items should be visually inspected and any damage or shortage should be advised to the supplier
immediately.
•
Ensure that the correct voltage supply is available for the unit requirement. Damage to electrical components within the unit will
occur if this is not observed.
•
Check that the proposed equipment location is suitable and provides adequate support for the weight of the unit.
•
Check the proposed equipment location for mains services (gas, electric water etc.) before drilling holes for ventilation duct and
unit fixings.
•
If using external ducting arrangement, ensure ducting route will fall within the limitation of pressure resistance as noted on page
6.
During Installation and subsequent maintenance
•
Installation and maintenance are to be performed only by qualified personnel who are familiar with local codes and
regulations, and experienced with this type of equipment.
•
If lifting equipment is required, ensure that it is suitable for purpose, certificated and that the operatives are qualified to use it.
•
Safe working methods are identified and operatives have suitable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
•
Ensure the working area is clear of obstructions.
•
The units contain moving parts and electrical power hazards, which may cause severe injury or death. Disconnect and shut off
power before installation or service of the equipment.
•
Units must be earthed.
•
The electrical covers and fan guards must remain fitted at all times.
•
Use of the units outside of the design conditions and the application for which the units were intended may be unsafe and be
detrimental to the units, regardless of short or long term operation.
•
The units are not designed to withstand loads or stresses from other equipment or personnel. Such extraneous loads or stress
may cause failure or injury.
Important Note:
Only qualified and authorized personnel, who are familiar with refrigeration systems and components
including all controls, should perform the installation and start-up of this equipment. To avoid potential
injury, use care when working around sharp edges of metal cabinets. All electrical wiring should be
installed in accordance with all applicable codes, ordinances and local by-laws. No work should be
undertaken on any equipment without first ensuring
all
electrical supplies are isolated.
Please be aware that during operation, even if the JABC unit is electrically isolated at its own
supply, there may be terminals within it which are still LIVE. Ensure that the source of the supply is
also isolated before attempting any service or maintenance operations.
