Receiving and Inspection Instructions
• Check the bill of lading to verify receipt of all listed items (including any loose accessory items). Notify the carrier and
the local ANEMOSTAT representative of any shortages or items shipped in error.
• Thoroughly examine all units for transportation damage (dents, punctures, etc). If damage is found, immediately
notify and file a claim with the carrier. Note details of any damage on the bill of lading before signing for the
shipment.
• Each terminal has a nameplate indicating the model number. When requested, the unit may also be mark with job-
specific information (tagging). Locate the nameplate and verify that the correct units with options (controls, heating
coils, etc) where received as ordered.
• Store units in a secure, dry location in the original packing, and do not stack any higher than as shipped.
Warning – Electrical Shock, Burn, and other Hazards
• Heating elements must be disconnected, or water coils allowed to cool prior to servicing. Electric heaters may start
automatically, or water valves may open intermittently. It is essential to disconnect all power and control circuits
prior to servicing to avoid burning hazards.
• All fastening straps or hangers must mechanically lock the terminal in place and withstand typical vibration and/or
disturbances during use.
• Use caution during rigging such that all equipment remains adequately secured until it is affixed and secured in its
final location.
• All supports must be designed to meet applicable local codes and ordinances. Before rigging and installation, check
equipment weights such to ensure temporary and permanent supports are safely maintained.
• Make certain all power sources are disconnected prior to installation or servicing this equipment. Make certain if
there are multiple power connections, that all are securely disconnected to avoid electrocution or shock injuries.
• Disconnect control circuits or pneumatic control systems to avoid injury when working on dampers or actuators,
which may respond automatically to a remote control source.
• Guard against flame hazards when soldering or brazing water coil connections to avoid personal injury or property
damage. Prior to using any open flame, keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
• All insulated units (except closed-cell) contain fiberglass wool. Disturbing the insulation could expose the installer to
airborne particles of glass wool fibers and ceramic fibers. Certain jurisdictions feel that exposure to these fibers
through inhalation can cause cancer. Glass wool fibers may also cause respiratory, skin or eye irritation.
General Notes:
• THE FLOW SENSOR, PNEUMATIC TUBING AND DAMPER SHAFT ARE NOT TO BE USED FOR LIFTING OR SUPPORT.
THEY ARE CRITICAL TO THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE UNIT.
• To avoid product damage, only lift or handle the RF-11 by fully supporting the unit from more than one location.
• Locate unit as per construction drawings, and be careful not to conflict with articles of other trades such as plumbing
and electrical conduit.
• Consult SMACNA guidelines for proper transitioning and good workmanship practices.
• Using the support method from the construction plans and specification, suspend unit in a level horizontal plane
noting direction of airflow. Do not secure hanging straps to unit appurtenances such as (but not limited to) electric
heater cabinets, hot water coils, and control enclosures.
For units equipped with optional hanging brackets, rods up to 3/8” diameter may be used with ANEMOSTAT
brackets. Hanger rod locations are approximately 1” to 3” from the corner of the unit for most terminal
configurations.
• Make certain not to obstruct service access to any electrical enclosures or access panels for access to the interior of
the unit.
• Check with the local Anemostat representative if a terminal must be “flipped” over from its’ intended orientation.
