Chapter 3 Installation
This chapter provides information on site requirements, unpacking,
inspection, and preparing the Bird 8640 Moduload for use.
Unpacking and
Inspection
1. Carefully inspect the shipping container for signs of damage. If
damage is noticed, do not unpack the unit. Immediately notify the
shipping carrier and Bird Electronic Corporation.
2. If the container is not damaged, unpack the unit. Save the packing
materials in case the unit should need to be shipped again.
3. Inspect all of the components for visible signs of damage.
Immediately notify the shipping carrier and Bird Electronic
Corporation of equipment damage or missing parts.
Placement
y Do not use outdoors or in areas of condensing humidity.
y Surrounding air must be free of contaminants or particles that
could be drawn into the air intakes.
y The heat exchanger must be operated in a horizontal position.
y AC power is required.
y Allow a minimum of one foot clearance along the sides and three
feet over the top to allow unobstructed air intake and exhaust.
y In small rooms or restricted areas, outside venting is
recommended. Ductwork must not have sharp bends that would
restrict air flow or create back pressure.
Mounting
The Moduload is equipped for either portable use or fixed installation.
The mounting brackets on the front and rear faces have four
mounting slots arranged in a 17" x 25" rectangle (432 x 635 mm). Use
a screw with a
1 ⁄
4
inch (6.4 mm) diameter max. The brackets may be
removed by removing the screws holding them to the Moduload.
WARNING
HEAVY. Do not lift this unit alone.
CAUTION
Do not block air flow. The air intake vents on the side of the heat
exchanger and the exhaust on top must not be obstructed.
