Shipment

Unless otherwise specified, the MC Fluid Cooler ships by truck (on flat 
bed trailers), which lets you receive, hoist, and install the tower in one 
continuous operation. Single-cell  coolers ship on one truck. Multicell fluid 
coolers, depending on their size, may require more than one truck. 

Responsibility for the condition of the fluid cooler upon its arrival belongs to 
the trucker—as does the coordination of multiple shipments, if required.

receiving Fluid Cooler

Prior to unloading the fluid cooler from the delivering carrier, inspect the 
shipment for evidence of damage in transit. If damage is apparent, note 
the freight bill accordingly. This will support your future recovery claim.

Find and remove the installation instruction drawings and bills of material 
located in a plastic bag in the  collection basin. This information should 
be kept for future reference and maintenance purposes.

Hoisting Fluid Cooler

All MC Fluid Cooler models consist of two modules per cell. The upper 
module includes hoisting clips at the bottom corners. Hoisting clips on the 
lower module are attached to the top at the horizontal cross channels. A 

Hoisting-Installation

 label which has hoisting dimensional information is 

located on the side casing near the tower centerline. Remove fluid cooler 
modules from the carrier and hoist into place according to the instruc-
tions on the label.

MC Fluid Cooler upper and lower modules must be hoisted and set 
separately. Do not preassemble modules prior to hoisting.

Hoisting clips are provided for ease of unloading and positioning the 

fluid cooler. For overhead lifts or where additional safety is required, 

safety slings should also be placed under the fluid cooler modules. 
Under no circumstances should you combine the top and bottom 
modules of modular  models and attempt to hoist them at the same 
time by utilizing the hoisting clips alone!
