Receiving
®
Upon receiving the product, check to make sure
all items are accounted for by referencing the bill
of lading to ensure all items were received. Inspect
each crate for shipping damage before accepting
delivery. Notify the carrier if any damage is noticed.
The carrier will make notification on the delivery
receipt acknowledging any damage to the product.
All damage should be noted on all the copies of the
bill of lading which is countersigned by the delivering
carrier. A Carrier Inspection Report should be filled
out by the carrier upon arrival and reported to the
Traffic Department. If damaged upon arrival, file claim
with carrier. Any physical damage to the unit after
acceptance is not the responsibility of manufacturer.
Unpacking
Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity
of each item have been received. If any items are
missing, report shortages to your local representative
to arrange for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it
is not possible that all items for the unit be shipped
together due to availability of transportation and truck
space. Confirmation of shipment(s) must be limited to
only items on the bill of lading.
Handling
Units are to be rigged and moved by the lifting
brackets provided or by the skid when a forklift is
used. Location of brackets varies by model and size.
Handle in such a manner as to keep from scratching
or chipping the coating. Damaged finish may reduce
ability of unit to resist corrosion.
Storage
Units are protected against damage during shipment.
If the unit cannot be installed and operated
immediately, precautions need to be taken to prevent
deterioration of the unit during storage. The user
assumes responsibility of the unit and accessories
while in storage. The manufacturer will not be
responsible for damage during storage. These
suggestions are provided solely as a convenience to
the user.
INDOOR — The ideal environment for the storage of
units and accessories is indoors, above grade, in a
low humidity atmosphere which is sealed to prevent
the entry of blowing dust, rain, or snow. Temperatures
should be evenly maintained between 30°F (-1°C) and
110°F (43°C) (wide temperature swings may cause
condensation and “sweating” of metal parts). All
accessories must be stored indoors in a clean, dry
atmosphere.
Remove any accumulations of dirt, water, ice, or snow
and wipe dry before moving to indoor storage. To
avoid “sweating” of metal parts allow cold parts to
reach room temperature. To dry parts and packages
use a portable electric heater to get rid of any
moisture build up. Leave coverings loose to permit air
circulation and to allow for periodic inspection.
The unit should be stored at least 3½ in. (89 mm) off
the floor on wooden blocks covered with moisture
proof paper or polyethylene sheathing. Aisles between
parts and along all walls should be provided to permit
air circulation and space for inspection.
OUTDOOR — Units designed for outdoor applications
may be stored outdoors, if absolutely necessary.
Roads or aisles for portable cranes and hauling
equipment are needed.
The fan should be placed on a level surface to prevent
water from leaking into the unit. The unit should be
elevated on an adequate number of wooden blocks so
that it is above water and snow levels and has enough
blocking to prevent it from settling into soft ground.
Locate parts far enough apart to permit air circulation,
sunlight, and space for periodic inspection. To
minimize water accumulation, place all unit parts on
blocking supports so that rain water will run off.
Do not cover parts with plastic film or tarps as these
cause condensation of moisture from the air passing
through heating and cooling cycles.
Inspection and Maintenance during Storage
While in storage, inspect fans once per month. Keep a
record of inspection and maintenance performed.
If moisture or dirt accumulations are found on parts,
the source should be located and eliminated. At each
inspection, rotate the fan wheel by hand ten to fifteen
revolutions to distribute lubricant on motor. Every
three months, the fan motor should be energized. If
paint deterioration begins, consideration should be
given to touch-up or repainting. Fans with special
coatings may require special techniques for touch-up
or repair.
Machined parts coated with rust preventive should
be restored to good condition promptly if signs of
rust occur. Immediately remove the original rust
preventive coating with petroleum solvent and clean
with lint-free cloths. Polish any remaining rust from
surface with crocus cloth or fine emery paper and oil.
Do not destroy the continuity of the surfaces. Wipe
thoroughly clean with Tectyl® 506 (Ashland Inc.) or
the equivalent. For hard to reach internal surfaces or
for occasional use, consider using Tectyl® 511M Rust
Preventive or WD-40® or the equivalent.
REMOVING FROM STORAGE — As units are removed
from storage to be installed in their final location,
they should be protected and maintained in a similar
fashion, until the equipment goes into operation.
Prior to installing the unit and system components,
inspect the unit assembly to make sure it is in working
order.
1. Check all fasteners, set screws on the fan, wheel,
bearings, drive, motor base, and accessories for
tightness.
2. Rotate the fan wheel(s) by hand and assure no
parts are rubbing.

3. Wire the Solenoid(s)
Wire the supply line solenoid and drain solenoid as
shown on the unit’s wiring diagram in the control
center.
4. Wire the Temperature Sensor
If the evaporative cooler shipped separate from the
unit, the temperature sensor must be wired. The
sensor wire is bundled inside the discharge end of the
evaporative cooler. Wire the sensor wire to the unit’s
control center. Refer to ladder diagram for proper
connections.
NOTE
The Water Wizard™ start-up must be completed for
proper performance.
1. Install Normally Closed Supply Line/
Solenoid
Connect the water supply line to the manual supply
valve in the unit. Install the supply solenoid in the
supply line, upstream of the manual supply valve and
below the roof line.
2. Install Normally Open Drain Line/
Solenoid
Connect the drain line to the supply line between the
manual supply valve and the supply solenoid. Install a
drain solenoid in the drain line, below the roof line. A
trap should be installed in the drain line.
NOTE
Solenoid(s) may be provided by manufacturer (if
ordered) or by others.
CAUTION
Any wiring deviations may result in personal injury or
property damage. Manufacturer is not responsible
for any damage to, or failure of the unit caused by
incorrect final wiring.

Coil Piping (optional)
IMPORTANT
Guidelines for the installation of direct expansion
cooling coils have been provided to ensure proper
performance and longevity of the coils. These are
general guidelines that may have to be tailored
to meet the specific requirements of any one job.
As always, a qualified party or individual should
perform the installation and maintenance of any coil.
Appropriate protective equipment is recommended
during the installation and maintenance of the coil.
IMPORTANT
All field-brazing and welding should be performed
using high quality materials and an inert gas purge
(such as nitrogen) to reduce oxidation of the internal
surface of the coil.
IMPORTANT
All field-piping must be self-supporting and flexible
enough to allow for the thermal expansion of the coil.
4. Install the Liquid Line and Thermal
Expansion Valve (TXV) (by others)
Liquid line openings vary by coil size and
circuiting and are field-supplied. Follow the TXV
recommendations for installation to avoid damaging
the valve. If the valve is externally equalized, use a
tubing cutter to cut off the plugged end of the factory
installed equalizer line. Use a de-burring tool to
remove any loose metal from the equalizer line and
attach it to the TXV. If the valve is internally equalized,
the factory-installed equalizer line can be left as is

5. Mount the Remote Sensing Bulb
(by others)
The expansion valve’s remote sensing bulb should be
securely strapped to the horizontal run of the suction
line at the 3 or 9 o’clock position and insulated.
6. Check Coil Piping for Leaks
Pressurize the coil to 100 psig with dry nitrogen or
other suitable gas. The coil should be left pressurized
for a minimum of 10 minutes. If the coil holds the
pressure, the hook-up can be considered leak free.
If the pressure drops by 5 psig or less, re-pressurize
the coil and wait another 10 minutes. If the pressure
drops again, there is likely one or more small leaks
which should be located and repaired. Pressure losses
greater than 5 psig indicate a large leak that should be
isolated and repaired.
