-First carefully read the instructions from the supplier.
The following points require extra attention.
-Check the connections of the high-pressure pipes.
-Ensure that the pipes do not rub against anything.
-Check if the spray banks work well.
-Check the operation of the pressostats and the
pressure.
-Check the water quality.
-Check the contamination of the rinse filter.
-Check the operating pressure weekly. Higher pres-
sure indicates an increase in contamination.
-Caution: The air flow may cause stationary parts to
move (even a fan that is switched off)!
-Caution: While working on the fan, the switch has to
be locked open.
-The data for the belt type, belt tension, number of-
belts, size and type of pulley is indicated on a label
attached to the fan housing.
The bearings of the smaller fan types cannot be lubri-
cated. If the larger fans are of the relubricated type,
then they should be lubricated every six months. For
higher temperatures and increased contamination the
lubrication interval should be adjusted as required.
The standard lubricant is Shell Alvania R3. For higher
temperatures and a higher degree of humidity use a
lubricant recommended by the supplier.
The electric motors are equipped with roller bear-
ings. Depending on the motor size the bearings are
lubricated for life or are equipped with a grease nip-
ple. The lubrication interval and type of lubricant are
as above.
After starting up the unit, but also after replacing the
belts the belt tension has to be checked within one
week and then after two weeks and further tensioned
if required. After that check the belt tension and in-
spect the condition of the belts every three months.

12.14.1. General
12.14.2. Bearings
12.14.3. Transmission
The CORRECT BELT TENSION depends on:
-the belt type;
-power to be transmitted;
-belt velocity.
The belt tension is calculated for each transmission.
If the belt tension is too high this can result in bearing
wear and vibration, if it is too low this can result in belt
slippage and belt wear.
Sequence for installation of new belts:
-Ensure that the pulleys are correctly aligned. If nec-
essary re-align.
-Position all belts loosely on the pulleys, do not pull-
tensioned belts over the pulleys.
-Tension the belts and check the tension with a
SonicTension Meter.
-Re-check the alignment.
If the fan speed changes or if a motor with different
power specifications and/or speed is installed, the
manufacturer must be informed. The supplier must
re-calculate the bearing load as well as the impeller
load. If this is not done, irreparable damage to the
fan may incur. The supplier does not accept any
responsibility for modifications that have not been
approved. See chapter 1.1.
-The warning pictograms indicating rotating parts,
electrical voltage and opening of doors are attached
to the door.
Electrical voltage
This pictogram indicates that there are electrical components
behind this access cover, door or panel that may be dangerous
for the user/installer. Only personnel qualified in accordance
with NEN 3140 is permitted to carry out work on these
components. The pictogram is attached to the access cover
for the electric heater control box.
Removal of transport brackets
This pictogram is located at the bottom of the fan section. It
indicates that the transport brackets must be removed during
commissioning before the fan is started up.
Verwijder transportbeugels voor opstarten ventilator.
Remove transport brackets before starting up the fan.
Retirer les fixations de transport avant démarrage.
Central data
This label contains the data for the AHU, such as order
number, position number etc. If present, the label is normally
located on the access cover or the door of the fan assembly.
Opening the fan door
This pictogram is positioned on the outside of the door or
access cover of the fan assembly. This pictogram warns that
the fan must have been switched off and deenergised for a
minimum of two minutes before the door or access cover is
opened.
Lifting and transport
An instruction is attached to the AHU that describes the
procedures that must be followed for lifting and transport.
The following chapter contains further details.
1.4 - Disposal of parts/materials
- The packaging material must be disposed of in a responsible
manner and in accordance with local regulations.
- Components that are replaced, must be disposed of as
described above.
2 - TRANSPORT AND LIFTING INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 - General
Transport and lifting of the AHU must always be in
accordance with the instructions below. If these instructions
are not observed, irreparable damage may occur to the unit,
and people in the immediate vicinity of the unit are also
endangered. Alarko Carrier does not accept any
responsibility if these instructions are not observed. Transport
and lifting must be carried out by qualified personnel. The
AHU must only be lifted with lifting bars supplied by
Alarko Carrier. Lifting must be carried out in
accordance with local regulations and with the help of
certified lifting aids.
2.2 - Transport and storage
Lifting of the AHU is only permitted under the designated
lifting points. Lifting under the cross beams is prohibited.
This applies to transport as well as storage, and is indicated
on the cross beam with the following label.
! WARNING!
Before opening doors, switch off and deenergise the
fan, and ensure that it has stopped rotating.
(minimum of 2 minutes)

Caution: All doors and access covers must be closed before
starting up the AHU.
1 - SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
1.1 - General
The 39HQ air handling units (AHUs) has been designed
and manufactured in accordance with the CE machine
directive EN292. In order to guarantee safe operation and
use of the unit, please carefully read and observe the
instructions in this document and pay special attention to
the warnings that apply to this unit. Any modifications in
the design and/or installation of the AHU that are carried
out without discussion with Alarko Carrier and
without advance written agreement will result in the loss of
the right to any warranty claims and any claim for injury to
personnel as a result of these modifications.
Maintenance procedures may only be carried out by
qualified personnel.
Heating and cooling elements are manufactured and
supplied in accordance with guidelines of the Pressure
Equipment Directive (PED).
1.2 - Applications
The AHU is designed for the movement and conditioning
of air, unless otherwise agreed during the design stage.
1.3 - Instruction types
The following warning pictograms and labels with text are
used.
Lifting point
This pictogram shows where the AHU must be lifted and is
positioned on the support beam.
Lifting prohibited
This pictogram shows that no horizontal transport devices
must be placed under this frame section, such as pallet
lifters or the forks of fork lift trucks. It is also forbidden to
place lifting devices for transport and storage under this
frame element.
Earthing
This pictogram indicates where the AHU must be earthed
and is on one of the support beams beneath the casing in
the fan section.
- The electrical components in the AHU must be earthed,
except for components with double insulation and/or
components with a supply voltage below 50 V.
- The electrical components must be installed in accordance
with national and local regulations.
Rotating parts
This pictogram indicates that there are rotating parts behind
this access cover, door or panel which may cause injury. The
components that include rotating parts are the fan and heat
recovery wheel. If there are special customer-specific
components behind doors, access covers or panels that
include rotating parts and pose a potential risk, this is also
indicated by this pictogram.
Hot surfaces
This pictogram indicates that there are components behind
this access cover, door or panel that can cause serious burns
when touched.
The components that may have hot surfaces are the steam
humidifier, steam heater and the electric heater. If there are
special special customer-specific components behind doors,
access covers or panels that have hot surfaces and pose a
potential risk, this is also indicated by this pictogram.

Under normal conditions the sound dampers are
maintenance-free. Nevertheless it is recommended
to check the attenuators once a year for possible
damage and loose fibres, in order to prevent further
contamination of the system.
