2. Follow the placement recommendations below.
• Place the unit in an area where routing and connecting the water and electrical power will
not pose a personnel or equipment hazard.
• Place the refrigeration unit as close as possible to where the cryosurface will be installed.
• Orient the refrigeration unit for ease of maintenance and connection of facilities and refrig-
erant lines.
• Place the refrigeration unit indoors and above ground.
• Place the refrigeration unit in a well-ventilated area.
• Place the refrigeration unit in an environment where the temperature is between 40° - 100°
F (4° - 38° C).
• Placement of the unit may be at any elevation relative to the cryosurface. The cryopumping
system is not gravity-sensitive.
3. Use a forklift or pallet jack or an
appropriate lift device to lift the refrig-
eration unit.
When using a forklift or pallet jack,
remove both the front and back bot-
tom panels to access the slots for the
forks. See Figure 4-2.
Place the forks of the forklift or pallet
jack fully through the frame of the
Cryochiller so that they extend out
the back side of the unit and are in
position to lift the Cryochiller by both
sides.
Carefully lift the unit and confirm that
it is being lifted by both sides.
4. Keep the Cryochiller vertical while it is being moved.
5. Place the refrigeration unit at the desired location.
6. Go to the Installation Checklist Table 4-1. Initial and date this task. Go to the next checklist task.
NOTICE
If using a fork lift or pallet jack, make sure the forks extend fully through the frame
of the Polycold Cryochiller and completely support both sides of the frame.
Lifting the unit with a forklift or pallet jack without having the forks or jack fully
extended through the Cryochiller frame will damage the frame and void the war-
ranty.
