4. Select a suitable location for chamber.
a. A minimum clearance of 12” (30.5 cm) must be maintained for proper
ventilation around chamber.
b. The chamber must be installed in an environment of 75ºF ±5ºF (+23ºC
±3ºC) with a maximum relative humidity of 95%, max altitude of 5000 ft
(1524 meters) for proper operation.
c. The chamber and its compressors must be level to ensure proper
lubrication.
d. The MCB-1.2 gives off approximately 7,000 BTU/HR of heat to the
room. The MC-3 gives off approximately 9,000 BTU/HR (1/2 HP) AND
12,000 BTU/HR (1 HP) of heat to the room.
There must be a means of removing this heat to keep the chamber
environment within specifi cation.
