Delivery and Storage

To ensure consistent quality, each evaporative module is inspected before leaving the factory.  If the module is to be put

into storage prior to installation, it must be stored under cover and protected from physical damage, dust, frost and rain.

It is recommended that the evaporative module be kept in its transit packaging for as long as possible prior to installation.

All evaporative modules are supplied  flat-packed for assembly ‘in situ’. The evaporative module must be 

assembled before water and electrical connections are made.

Please refer to SK VAP Evaporative Module Assembly Instructions supplied with the system.

Inspection

Upon receipt, remove the transit packaging and inspect the unit to ensure that no damage has occurred during transit.

Any visible damage must be reported to Neptronic

®

immediately. If the unit is to be put into storage, the packaging should

be replaced.

Handling Evaporative Material        

The SK VAP evaporative material should not be cut or crushed as doing so may generate dust.

SK VAP evaporative material is manufactured from glass fibre and is not classified as hazardous. It is recommended

that Personal Protection Equipment such as gloves, protective clothing and eye protection are used during handling to

protect the user from fibres or dust. If dust is generated during handling it is recommended that respiratory protection is

worn. Damage to the evaporative material will affect the performance of the humidifier and may result in water carry

over.

In the event of  contact, the following procedures should be observed:

Eye contact – wash well with water for a minimum of 15 minutes

Skin contact – wash well with soap and water.

Correct Method of Lifting

Lifting or handling must only be carried out by trained and qualified personnel. Ensure that the lifting operation has been

properly planned and risk assessed, and that all equipment has been checked by a skilled and competent Health & Safety

representative.

It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that operators are trained in handling heavy goods and to enforce the relevant

lifting regulations.

The packaged SK VAP unit may be carried by fork lift from the underside, but caution should be exercised to ensure that

the load is balanced before lifting. Refer to weights and measures section for system weight.

Disposal 

You must observe local laws and regulations when disposing of your SK VAP at the end of its working life. 

Use personal protective equipment as recommended in the handling section above when handling the evaporative

material. In addition, respiratory protection should be worn to avoid inhalation of dust or debris from the air flow which

may have accumulated on the material. 

The evaporative module is constructed from stainless steel which may be fully recycled.
