1 Introduction
These condensing units are intended for incorporation
into refrigeration systems in accordance with the EU
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. They may only be put
into operation if they have been installed into the refri-
geration systems according to these mounting/operat-
ing instructions and if the overall system complies with
the applicable legal provisions.
The condensing units have been built in accordance
with state-of-the-art methods and the applicable regula-
tions. Particular importance has been placed on user
safety.
The electrical components correspond to the EU Low
Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU, frequency inverters cor-
respond also to the EU EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.
Moreover, the pressurised components must comply
with the EU Pressure Equipment Directives 2014/68/
EU (PED) (see table 1, page 5).
These operating instructions must be kept available
near the refrigeration system during the whole lifetime
of the condensing unit.
1.1 Also observe the following technical documents
In addition to these instructions, the operating instruc-
tions and Technical Information for the respective com-
pressors and pressure vessels must be taken into ac-
count.
• KB-104 operating instructions BITZER ECOLINE
• DB-300 pressure vessel: Liquid receivers and oil
separators
• KT-101 CR II system / capacity control for
BITZER ECOLINE
• The manufacturer's documentation of the individual
components included in the scope of delivery
