Inspection and Storage
Store cabinets, chassis, and risers the same way they
were shipped. Ensure the storage area is dry and protected from the environment. Keep the units in their
upright position. If the risers are stored at the job site,
ensure the pipe ends are capped to prevent foreign object debris and contamination.
In areas where construction is not complete (including
dry wall, plaster, paint, and where any emission of dust
particulates or fumes from outgassing are present), all
precautions must be taken to protect the cabinet, openings, and chassis from contamination or physical damage.
Upon delivery, perform the following inspections:
1. Inspect the unit for shipment damage. Notify the
Transportation Company of any damage and note
the damage on the shipping receipt.
Rough handling may dislocate and damage internal components.
• Remove the inner service panel and manually
check the blower wheel for free rotation.
• Match the refrigeration chassis to the proper cabinets by referring to the cabinet and chassis nameplate and label information.
• Remove the chassis refrigeration access panel
(top cover) and inspect the unit. Ensure that the
refrigerant tubing is free from obvious physical
damage and kinks, and check that piping does not
touch other unit components.
• Ensure the compressor is mounted on neoprene
isolators with metal spacing sleeves inside. Secured it with nuts that are snug against the metal
spacer sleeves.
• Inspect all electrical connections. Connections
must be clean and tight at the terminals.
Do NOT use the risers to lift the cabinet
assembly.
2. Inspect the riser projections at each end of the
cabinet for misalignment or end damage that
would prevent making an acceptable connection.
3. Inspect the thermostats and other accessories that
have been shipped separately for quantity and
transit damage.
Store the refrigeration chassis in the normal upright
orientation to maintain oil in the compressor sump.
Preparations for Installing the Unit
Before installing the unit, perform the following preparations:
• Verify the model number on the unit nameplate
with the ordering and shipping information to ensure the correct unit has been shipped.
• Carefully inspect each unit before delivery to the
installation site. All cabinets may not be equipped
with the same size riser or the same air supply
grille arrangement. In most cases, each cabinet is
individually tagged for a specic location in the
building.
Do NOT install this unit outdoors.
A compressor/unit comprises a pressurized system. Never loosen threaded joints
while the system is under pressure, and
never open pressurized system parts.
Before servicing, open and tag all disconnect switches.

SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION
Safety guards, shields, barriers, covers, and protective devices must not be
removed while the compressor/unit is
operating.
All safety features, disengagement, and
interlocks must be in place and function
correctly before the equipment is put into
operation. Never bypass or wire around
any safety device.
Use gloves and protective goggles where
appropriate and have a gas mask close at
hand. Use electrical protection equipment
and tools suited for electrical operations.
Personnel must be qualied according
to national safety rules and regulations.
CABINET RISER INSTALLATION
Do NOT use the risers to lift or move the
cabinets.
Refer to Figure 3 on page 14, which shows the
correct location of the cabinet in relation to the floor
sleeve and risers.
Risers are not designed to support or lift any part of the
cabinet. Do not use them to lift a cabinet. Risers are attached using nylon ties to allow for slight adjustments
during installation, and expansion of riser column during operation. Take care during installation to avoid
damage to risers and riser stub-outs.
Improper handling and installation of
risers could damage riser stub-outs and
valves and could result in property damage, death, or serious injury.
1
Only manufacturer- qualied personnel
should install this system. If not, it may
cause water leakage, electric shock, or
re.
Rigging
Follow all applicable regulations and
safety practices during rigging and lifting.
Prepare and follow written rigging and lifting plan.
Lifting must be directed by trained, professional rigger.
Spreader bars must be used and be long enough to prevent rigging from contacting unit. Use only the designated lift points according to unit's IOM, and use ALL
lift points.
Locate the center of gravity through trial lifts to account for possible variations in unit configuration. Use
rigging and lifting techniques that keep the unit stable
and level. Keep clear of unit when lifted.
Do not allow the risers to bottom out. Riser
stub-out should be centrally located with
the stub-out opening of the cabinet riser.
Do not allow riser stub-outs or risers to
contact cabinet sheet metal.
Do not drag risers on the oor while moving the cabinet.
When the risers are shipped loose, riser installation can
be completed before cabinet installation. When installing risers, ensure the riser stub-outs are centered in the
the cabinet openings. Ensure that the risers cannot bottom out in swage (see Figure 1 on page 12).
When risers are shipped attached to cabinets, complete
the installation of risers and cabinet at the same time.
Detaching the riser from the cabinet is unnecessary.
Placing the Cabinet
The correct location of the cabinet in relation to the
floor sleeve and risers is shown in Figure 3 on page
14. To place the cabinet correctly, perform the following steps:
11
SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION
FORM 145.18-IOM1
ISSUE DATE: 8/30/2018
1. Place the cabinet in a horizontal position on the
oor adjacent to its installation location (when risers are attached to cabinet).
The units are designed to accommodate a maximum supply and return riser stub-out movement
of 1-1/2 inches due to expansion and contraction
(total movement of 3 inches). If the total calculated riser expansion or contraction exceeds 1-1/2
inches, the field must provide expansion compensation.
2. Install eld or factory-provided riser extensions,
if required, to the unit-mounted risers prior to
moving the cabinet into nal position.
3. Raise the cabinet upright. Lower the risers through
the oor cutout, aligning the risers into the swaged
section of the unit on the oor below.
Take extra care not to scrape or dent risers during positioning. The riser tailpiece
should insert approximately 2 inches into
the 3-inch long swaged section of the unit
below.
7. Center the risers’ horizontal stub-outs (complete
with factory-installed shut-off valves) in the cabinet slot openings. Ensure that the stub-outs are
perpendicular to the side/back panel.
8. Verify all risers are vertical and that they penetrate
the swaged joint at least 1 inch.
Factory provided risers come with a 3-inch deep
swage. Do not allow risers to completely bottom
out at 3 inches in the swage. The 3-inch swage
depth is oversized to allow for adjustments if necessary to keep riser stub-outs and valves centered
in the cabinet opening.
9. Center the riser stub-out in cabinet opening to
allow for expansion and contraction. Riser stubouts must not contact on any sheet metal opening.
Otherwise damage can occur to stub-outs, resulting in water leaks and property damage.
Top Vertical
Riser
DO NOT allow the riser tailpiece to bottom
out into the swaged section. This ensures
the correct riser positioning and com-
pensates for variations in oor-to-oor
dimensions.
4. Center the risers in the pipe chase, and level the
cabinet using shims as necessary.
5. Plumb risers in two planes to assure proper unit
operation and condensate drainage.
6. Anchor the cabinets into place using rubber isolated sheet metal angles. Approved and tested
sheet metal angles are available from factory.
It is strongly recommended to install vibration
isolation pads to reduce noise transmission into
the floor. Failure to use isolation kits could result
in loud unit operation.
Do not drill or drive screws into the cabinet in the area of the internal drain pan.

10. Braze or solder riser joints with industry accepted
solder or brazing rod material.
The riser system must be secured to building structure. Cabinets are not designed
to support the riser system.
11. Secure the riser system at a minimum of one point
to the building structure. Cabinets are not intended to support the riser system. If the temperature
range of the system exceeds the allowed expansion and contraction limits (1-1/2 inches maximum), the installing contractor must make riser
compensation provisions.
12. Ensure that individual unit shut-off valves remain
closed until the circulating loop system is cleaned
and ushed.

RISER LOOP
5. Install the following parts at the base of each supply and return riser to enable system ushing, balancing, and servicing:
• Drain valve
• Shut-off/balancing valves
• Flow indicators
• Drain tees
6. Install strainers at the inlet of each circulating
pump.
7. Insulate loop water piping that runs through unconditioned areas of the building or outside the
building.
When the loop water temperature is maintained
between nominal operating limits of 60.0–90.0°F,
piping does not sweat or suffer undue heat loss at
conditioned space temperatures.
8. Install vents in piping loop as required to bleed
residual air from the piping system during lling
and servicing.
9. Determine the riser shut-off valves and hose kits
required for job specic site conditions:
a. Factory-supplied risers come with the appro-
priate hose kits with NPSH type fittings (see
Figure 5 on page 17). Before attaching
NPSH type hoses, check that the female end
gasket is not missing and is free of damage
or debris. See Table 2 for information on re-
placement gaskets for NPSH hose kits.
b. For field-supplied risers, it is recommended
to order the appropriate NPSH type field
hose kits from the factory, complete with
shut-off valves. Shut-off valves are to be
field sweat connected to risers (see Figure 6 on page 17).
c. Legacy chassis with NPT type connections
and matching risers with NPT shut-off valve
connections require a special hose kit. The kit
comes complete with a NPT to NPSH swivel adapter on the shut-off valve and chassis
connection to mate with factory hoses (see
Figure 7 on page 18.
TABLE 2 - REPLACEMENT HOSE GASKETS
PART NUMBERDESCRIPTION
VSGK-UFHW-0501/2-inch Rubber Gasket
VSGK-UFHW-0753/4-inch Rubber Gasket
HOSES
Ensure the correct hose set is matched with the compatible unit size (see Table 3). Instal the NPSH factory-
provided hoses by completing the following steps:
1. Inspect for missing or damaged hose gasket. See
Table 2 for replacement gasket part numbers.
2. Tighten by hand the screw connections to the
male NPSH tting on the shut-off valve. Hold the
ferrule stationary when tightening.
3. Tighten using a backup wrench a 1/4 turn further.
Do not overtighten.
When installing hoses, do not apply a
twist or torque load on the hose.
When tightening hoses, hold the ferrule
stationary by hand while tightening the
screw connections. Avoid tight bends, or
water ow and high pressure drops may
occur.
Hose gasket does not require extreme
tightening to obtain a seal. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN, or damage to gasket or
sealing surface will occur. Do not apply
thread sealant.
Hoses must be hand tightened, then further tightened for roughly another 1/4
turn. Check for leaks before tightening
any further. Do not apply excessive force;
rubber gaskets might get damaged.
Always use a back-up wrench when tightening hoses to valves. Otherwise, valve
solder joint may fail, leading to property
damage or serious injury.
