3.3. Connection of Sections
Connect connecting cables and wires of the sections (see Chapter “Electrical Installation”) before fastening sections of
an air handling unit.
•
If, for any reason, sections of the unit were disassembled, before installation at it’s final location,
airtightness of the unit may differ from the data provided in documentation, unless the unit is
assembled by personnel trained by the manufacturer.
•
Sealing gaskets must be fitted between the sections (supplied with the unit).
•
For outdoor installation, joints between the sections must be additionally sealed with silicone or
other sealant.
•
Drilling and using self-tapping screws on the unit casing is prohibited (where it is not provided
by the construction), since cables or tubes inside of the casing may be damaged.

External connection and sealing of sections
1 – installation frame, 2 – nut M10, 3 – washer, 4 – screw M10,
5 – adhesive gasket, 6 – gasket on a shelf between different air flows,
7 – external tightening elements, 8 – internal tightening brackets
Depending on the unit size and purpose of sections thereof, separate sections may be interconnected with external
tightening elements or internal tightening brackets, using supplied screws. Sealing gaskets must be attached to joints be-
fore joining the sections (supplied with the unit). Gaskets are installed around the entire perimeter of the section as well as
on a shelf which separates different air flows. Screws must be tightened so that the gasket is fully compressed and distance
between the sections does not exceed 2–3 mm. If the unit is ordered with an installation frame, additionaly sections shall
be tightened through the designated holes in the installation frame (insert internal section connection screws first, before
tightening installation frame).
Sections are tightened at the inside corners as well as in the middle at the shelf separating different air flows. If some of
the connection openings near the fans are hard to reach, air closing damper can be dismounted or external tightening ele-
ments can be used for easier section tightening.
