5. Mount the blanking plates on the air inlet side (blanking plates available as option):
• Starting on each duct side on the bottom fix the side blanking plates to the duct wall using ap-
propriate fixings. Before fixing make sure the side blanking plates are aligned exactly vertical
and the free end of the blanking plates touches the middle of the corresponding vertical support.
• Starting on one side fix the upper blanking plates to the duct ceiling using appropriate fixings.
Before fixing make sure the upper blanking plates are aligned exactly perpendicular to the duct
walls and the free ends of the blanking plates touch the cross member of the frame.
• Starting on one side fix the lower blanking plates to the duct floor using welding studs, washers
and nuts. Before fixing make sure the lower blanking plates are aligned exactly perpendicular
to the duct walls and the free ends of the blanking plates touch the tank wall.
CAUTION!
The installer must take appropriate measures to ensure that the duct floor remains water proof
once the lower blanking plates has been fixed to the duct floor.
