INSTALLATION
GENERAL SERVICEABILITY
Equipment of this type is intended for installation by
qualified servicemen’only. As a condition of the war-
ranty, the check, test, and start-up procedure must be
performed by such personnel and properly reported on
the form provided. Failure to do so voids the warranty.
Arrangement for service should be
made
prior to instal-
lation, as it is not included in the warranty or the
catalog price. See warranty terms on Page 3.
The compressor compartment is accessible from the
top and two sides by easily
removed
panels.
All control and starting equipment is located in the
control cabinet. The control panel is protected by a
weatherproof enclosure having a gasketed and hinged
door.
The condenser fan motors on belt driven units are
accessible through generously sized access doors for
checking the fan motor, belts, and drives.
INSPECTION
On belt drive units, the condenser fan bearings are
equipped with external lubrication fittings.
When the equipment is received, all items should be
carefully checked against the bill of lading to be sure
that ail crates and cartons have been received. All
units should be carefully inspected for damage when
received and all damage should be reported immedi-
ately to the carrier, and a claim filed for damage. The
unit nameplate should be checked to be sure it agrees
with the power supply available.
The direct drive fan motors are serviced through the
fan opening.
REFRIGERANT CHARGE
LOCATION
Every model PAB SEASONPAK air cooled water chiller
is supplied with a full refrigerant charge for the job
requirements (see Table 6, Pages 8 and 9). Charge for
s p e c i f i c u n i t s c a n be obtained f’rom the nameplatc.
The McQUAY line of air cooled water chillers is de-
signed for outdoor application. The chiller unit should
be located so that all four sides of the unit have free
area for inlet air flow. The units have vertical conden-
ser air discharge, with air taken in from the underside
of the unit.
HANDLING
A level and sufficiently strong base is required to
support the SEASONPAK air cooled water chiller. If
necessary, additional supports should be provided to
transfer the weight of the unit to the nearest adequate
structural members of the building.
The unit location should be such that the service-
man has free access to the compressor compartment,
refrigerant system components (i.e., strainerdriers),
condenser fan motors, and electrical control cabinet.
\,‘ibration isolators are recommended under all roof
mounted units or where vibration transmission is crit-
i c a l Recommended mounts are shown in Table 1,
Page 6.
Care should be taken to avoid rough handling or shock
due to dropping the unit. Never push or pull the unit
from anything other than the skids. Do not drop either
end of unit off of truck tail gate. For lifting, slings
should be provided, with spreader bars to protect the
aluminum housing. The dual units are furnished with
permanent full length skids. The single compressor
units are shipped on wooden skids. Lifting adapter
holes are furnished on the dual unit skids. Lifting
lugs are furnished on the single unit side channels.
All legs have convenient holes for use in moving the
unit.
T h e single compressor unit leg base plates have
three holes for convenient location of legs for fasten-
ing to “I” beam or channel bases.
