3.2.1. Locating the unit<br />
-- If possible install unit in such a manner that the compressor<br />
fan can draw fresh air from outside, for instance through an<br />
opening in the wall as low as possible.<br />
-- Ensure that an adequate exhaust air opening is provided,<br />
as high as possible.<br />
-- Locate compressor as close to the air intake opening as<br />
possible. (Minimum distance approx. 50 cm)<br />
-- Locate unit so as to absolutely avoid intake of warm or hot<br />
cooling air.<br />
-- Observe the minimum distances as listed in the table overleaf<br />
(Fig. 11).<br />
3.2.2. Cooling air duct installation<br />
On all Verticus 5 units the cooling air outlet can be installed as<br />
standard in two different ways. By simply removing the air outlet<br />
cover and grid and mounting them in the desired position, the<br />
air outlet can either be on top or on the back of the unit (Fig. 10).<br />
If the outlet on the top is selected, the unit can be positioned<br />
close to a wall, provided a correct air intake according to the following<br />
paragraphs is ensured.<br />
3.2.3. <strong>Air</strong> baffle control (Option)<br />
See drawing 073733 in section F, if applicable. The air circulating<br />
baffles ensure optimal temperature in the compressor room<br />
or at least that the temperature stays within the permissible<br />
range of +5 to +45°C when the outside temperature is low.<br />
The recommended controller thermostat setting is +15 to 18°C.<br />
Adjustment takes place at 4°C above or below the set value.<br />
A temperature sensor in the cooling air intake channeltransmits<br />
to the control unit the temperature of the air taken in. This activates<br />
the actuator of the air circulating baffles. According to requirements,<br />
one of the two baffles in the cooling air exhaust<br />
channel is opened. One guides the warm cooling air to the outside,<br />
the other recirculates the warm cooling air back into the<br />
room. The procedure is continuous and therefore the amount<br />
of warm air being recirculated is continually being adjusted as<br />
necessary.<br />
The cooling air exhaust channel with baffle unit can be connected<br />
to the top or the rear of the VERTICUS 5 unit.<br />
