Selecting A Location In Cold Climates - Rotex RRRQ011AAV1 Manuel D'installation

■
Turn the air outlet side toward the building's wall, fence or
screen.
Make sure there is enough room to do the installation.
■
Set the outlet side at a right angle to the direction of the wind.
Strong wind
Blown air
3 Prepare a water drainage channel around the foundation, to
drain waste water from around the unit (field supply).
4 If the water drainage of the unit is not easy, please build up the
unit on a foundation of concrete blocks, etc. (the height of the
foundation should be maximum 150 mm).
5 If you install the unit on a frame, please install a waterproof plate
within 150 mm of the underside of the unit in order to prevent the
invasion of water from the lower direction.
6 When installing the unit in a place frequently exposed to snow,
pay special attention to elevate the foundation as high as
possible.
7 The outdoor unit may short circuit depending on its environment,
so use the louvers (field supply).
8 If you install the unit on a building frame,
please install a waterproof plate (field
supply)(within 150 mm of the underside of
the unit) or use a drain kit (refer to
combination table in "General information"
on page 1) in order to avoid the drainwater
dripping. (See figure).
The equipment described in this manual may cause
electronic noise generated from radio-frequency energy.
The equipment complies to specifications that are
designed to provide reasonable protection against such
interference. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.
It is therefore recommended to install the equipment and
electric wires keeping proper distances away from stereo
equipment, personal computers, etc... (See figure 2)
1 Personal computer or radio
2 Indoor unit
3 Outdoor unit
In extreme circumstances you should keep distances of
3 m or more and use conduit tubes for power and
transmission lines.

Selecting a location in cold climates

Refer to "General information" on page 1.
CAUTION
When operating the outdoor unit in a low outdoor ambient
temperature, be sure to follow the instructions described
below.
■
To prevent exposure to wind, install the outdoor unit with its
suction side facing the wall.
■
Never install the outdoor unit at a site where the suction side
may be exposed directly to wind.
■
To prevent exposure to wind, install a baffle plate on the air
discharge side of the outdoor unit.
■
In heavy snowfall areas it is very important to select an
installation site where the snow will not affect the unit. If lateral
snowfall is possible, make sure that the heat exchanger coil is
not affected by the snow (if necessary construct a lateral
canopy).

Construct a pedestal.
Install the unit high enough off the ground to prevent burying
in snow.

If the installation of a canopy is not possible, the
optional snow cover (RK016SNC) shall be
installed.
