the damage in the transport documents and have it receipted by
the supplier. Please take a photograph of the damage and report
it to us immediately. We need your notification of claim within
the legally stipulated period of time, together with the original
freight receipt and with receipted reservation.
INSTALLATION.
TRANSPORT.
LIFTING AND TRANSPORTING A HEAT EXCHANGER
WITH A BY FRAME. Follow the instructions supplied with
the heat exchanger. For extra copies of those lifting instructions,
contact Aurora customer service.
LIFTING AND TRANSPORTING A HEAT EXCHANGER
WITH A CY FRAME. Follow the instructions supplied with
the heat exchanger. For extra copies of those lifting instructions,
contact Aurora customer service.
INSTALLATION.
In case of outdoor installation, take precautions against freezing
the flow media in the heat exchanger, if necessary.
SPACE REQUIREMENTS. Provide a sufficient free space
around the heat exchanger. This facilitates access to the plate
heat exchanger and necessary service tasks (e.g. replacing
individual plates, compressing the plate pack).
The values for the necessary space given in the adjacent figure
are guide values and are recommended by Aurora. You provide
an adequate access to the plate heat exchanger.
PIPE ASSEMBLY. The Aurora plate heat exchangers are
provided with different connection types according to the
purpose. Pay attention to the following points during piping:
NOTE: In order to avoid clogging problems during
commissioning the heat exchanger, Aurora strongly
recommends filters or bypasses for the first flushing of the
overall pipe system.
Danger:
Damage on the Plate
Heat Exchanger
The connecting pieces can bend or crack.
1. Attach the hoisting gear according to the lifting
instructions supplied with the heat exchanger.
2. When attaching the lifting gear, make sure that they are
firmly seated.
3. Never use a chain or a steel rope, but only slings.
Warning:
Danger to Life
When installing the heat exchanger, there always is the risk
of the heat exchanger falling over. All heat exchangers that
are standing and not fixed present the risk of falling over.
Always ensure that:
1. The hoisting gear are of sufficient dimensions.
2. The hoisting gear cannot come loose or slide off.
3. No swing movements to the side result when lifting the
heat exchanger.
4. The floor at the installation site is sufficiently large,
level and able to support the load.
5. All heat exchangers are preferably anchored to the
ground in a secure manner immediately after the
installation. Gasketed plate heat exchangers can be
knocked over with relatively little effort.
Warning:
Danger to Life, Damage of the
Plate Heat Exchanger
Before moving the heat exchanger, always ensure that:
1. The lifting gear is of the correct dimensions.
2. The lifting gear cannot come loose or slide off.
3. No swing movements to the side result when lifting the
heat exchanger.
4. A sufficient safety distance is kept by the operating
personnel.
5. The floor at the installation site is sufficiently large,
level and able to support the load.
Warning:
Danger to Life
When installing the heat exchanger, there always is the
risk of toppling. All plate heat exchangers that are standing
upright and are not anchored present the risk of toppling
over.
Always ensure that:
1. The hoisting gear is sufficiently dimensioned.
2. The hoisting gear cannot come loose or slide off.
3. A sufficient safety distance is kept by the operator.
4. The floor at the installation site is sufficiently large,
level and able to support the load.
5. All heat exchangers are fixed to the ground in a secure
manner as soon as possible. Plate heat exchangers can
topple over with relatively little effort.
Danger:
Damage to the Pipe Connections
and on the Plate Heat Exchanger
Make sure that no forces, moments, or vibrations that are
too high are transferred via the pipes onto the connections of
the plate heat exchanger.
