The units can be stored under the following environmental conditions:
Minimum ambient temperature : -10°C
Maximum ambient temperature : 53°C
Maximum relative humidity : 95% non-condensing
ATTENTION
Storage at a lower temperature than the minimum indicated can cause damage to certain parts including the
electronic control unit and its LCD display.
Storage at a higher temperature than that indicated will cause the safety valves on the suction valves of the
compressors to open.
Storage in a condensed atmosphere can damage the electronic components.
Operation
The unit must operate within the limits indicated in the following diagram.
Operating outside the limits indicated may trigger the protection devices and interrupt functioning of the unit and, in
extreme cases, may damage the unit.
For any doubts, contact the factory.
The maximum operating altitude is 2,000 m above sea level.
Please contact the factory if the equipment is to be operated at altitudes of between 1,000 and 2,000 m above sea
level.
The operating limits refer to a fully charged machine.
It is necessary to ensure the stability of the machine during transport. If the machine is transported with a wooden bar
placed on the machine base, this must be removed only on reaching the final destination.
Responsibility
The manufacturer declines all present and future responsibility for any harm to persons, animals or property caused by
the negligence of operators who fail to respect or who misinterpret the installation and maintenance instructions given in
this manual.
All safety appliances must be correctly and periodically checked, in compliance with local laws and regulations on safety
and environmental protection.
Safety
The machine must be firmly anchored to the ground.
It is of fundamental importance to respect the warnings given in the following list, which, however, is not to be considered
as exhaustive:
- The machine must be raised only at the lifting points on the base of the machine indicated in yellow. Only these points
can support the whole weight of the unit.
- Do not allow unauthorised and/or unqualified persons access to the machine.
- Access to the electrical components is forbidden until the main switch of the machine has been switched off and the
electricity supply has thus been cut off.

Before carrying out any operation on the machine, read the instruction and operating manual carefully.
Installation and maintenance must be carried out only by qualified personnel who are familiar with legal provisions
and local regulations, who have had specific training and who have experience of this type of appliance.
The machine must not be installed in any place which can be considered dangerous during maintenance, such as
(but not only) surfaces with no parapet or railings or without adequate space.
Handling and lifting
Avoid blows and/or jolts when unloading from the lorry and handling the machine. Do not push or pull any part of the
machine except the base frame. Prevent the machine from sliding on the lorry to prevent damage to the panels and the
base frame. Avoid any part of the machine from falling during unloading and/or handling; such falls can cause serious
damage.
All units of the series are provided with six lifting points marked in yellow. Use only these points for lifting the unit, as
indicated in Figure 2.

ATTENTION
Both the lifting ropes and the spacer and/or equalizer bar must be dimensioned to safely support the weight of the
machine. Check the weight of the unit on the machine identification plate.
The weights indicated in the “Technical Data” table in the “General Information” chapter refer to standard units
without any additional optional elements.
Your particular machine could have accessories which increase the overall weight (pumps, batteries, copper/copper
parts etc.)
The machine must be lifted with maximum care and attention. Avoid sudden movements and lift the machine very
slowly, always keeping it level.

Positioning and assembly
All units are designed for outdoor installation on terraces or on the ground provided the area is free from obstacles which
can hinder the flow of air to the condensing batteries.
The machine must be installed on a strong, perfectly level foundation; if the machine is installed on a terrace or on the
roof, it may be necessary to place it on beams in order to distribute the weight.
For installation on the ground, prepare a strong cement base at least 250 mm wider and longer than the machine. The
foundation must also be strong enough to support the weight of the machine as declared in the technical sheet.
If the machine is installed in a place easily accessible to persons and animals, it is advisable to install protective grills
around the batteries and the compressor section.
To guarantee optimum performance of the machine in the place of installation, the following precautions and warnings
must be respected:
• Avoid recirculation of the air flow
• Make sure no obstacles hinder the air flow
• The free circulation of air is necessary to guarantee correct suction and expulsion.
• Make sure the flooring is strong and compact in order to reduce sound emissions and vibration as much as possible.
• Avoid installing the machine in particularly dusty environments in order to avoid dirtying the condensation batteries.
• The water in the plant must be particularly clean and all traces of oil or rust must be removed. A mechanical water
filter must be installed in the pipe which supplies the unit with water.
Minimum space requirements
It is of fundamental importance to respect the minimum distances for all units, in order to guarantee optimum ventilation
of the condensing batteries. Reduced installation space could reduce normal air flow with significant reduction in the
performance of the machine and a considerable increase in electricity consumption.
In deciding the position of the machine and guaranteeing correct air flow, it is important to bear in mind that the
recirculation of hot air and lack of ventilation to the air condensers must be avoided.
Both these factors can cause an increase in condensation pressure which will result in reduced energy efficiency and
reduced refrigerating capacity. Thanks to the shape of the air condensers, the unit is less sensitive to inefficient air
distribution.
In addition, the software calculates the operating conditions of the machine and optimises load in abnormal functioning
conditions.
Each side of the machine must be accessible for post-installation maintenance. Figure 8 shows the minimum space
required.
Vertical expulsion of the air must not be obstructed as this would significantly reduce capacity and efficiency.
If the machine is positioned in a place surrounded by walls or obstacles as high as the machine, these must be at least
2500 mm from the machine. If the obstacles are higher, the machine must be installed at a distance of at least 3000 mm.
If the machine is installed without respecting the recommended distances from walls and/or obstacles, the hot air may
recirculate and/or the air condensers may be insufficiently ventilated, causing reduced capacity and efficiency.

In any case, the microprocessor will allow the machine to adapt to new conditions, producing the maximum capacity
available (which will, however, be less than the nominal capacity of the machine) even if the free space at the side of the
machine is less than that recommended.
When two or more machines are positioned one beside the other, there must be a distance of at least 3600 mm between
the condensation batteries.
For other solutions, consult the authorised technicians.
When it is particularly necessary to control the sound level, pay maximum attention to insulating the machine from the
base by the suitable application of anti-vibration devices (available as an optional accessory). In addition, install flexible
joints on the water connections.
Water pipes
The piping must be designed with as few curves as possible and as few upward-flow sections as possible; in this way the
cost of the system will be considerably reduced and performance will be improved.
The water plant should contain:
1. Anti-vibration supports to reduce the transmission of the vibrations to the basic structure.
2. Cut-off valves to cut off the machine from the water system during maintenance or repairs.
3.
A manual or automatic air bleeding device at the highest point of the plant. A drainage device at the lowest point
of the plant. Neither the evaporator nor the heat recovery device must be positioned at the highest point of the
plant.
4. A device to maintain the pressure of the water system (expansion tank, etc.).
5. Water temperature and pressure indicators positioned on the machine, in aid of maintenance and servicing
operations.
6.
A filter or other device to remove extraneous particles from the water before entering the pump (consult the
pump manufacturer’s recommendations for the correct size of the filter to avoid cavitation). The use of a filter
will prolong the life of the pump and will maintain the water system in the best conditions.
7.
Another filter must be fitted on the water pipe at the machine water input point, near the evaporator and the heat
recovery device (if installed). The filter prevents solid particles from entering the heat exchanger, which could
damage it or reduce heat exchange capacity.
8. The shell and tube heat exchanger has an electrical resistance with a thermostat to prevent the water from
freezing even at temperatures as low as -25°C. All t he other water pipes outside the machine must be thermally
insulated to prevent freezing.
9. The water must be removed from the heat recovery device during the winter period unless a sufficient
percentage of an ethylene glycol mixture is introduced into the water circuit.
10.
If the machine is installed in place of another, the whole water system must be drained and cleaned before
installing the new unit. Regular analysis of the water and correct chemical treatment is recommended before
starting up the new machine.
11.
If glycol is added to the water in the circuit as an anti-freeze solution, make sure that the suction pressure is
lower; machine performance will be reduced and loss of water pressure will be greater. All machine protection
systems, such as anti-freeze and low pressure protection, must be reset.
Before thermally insulating the water pipes, make sure that there are no leaks.
