It will be the responsibility of the customer to submit a monthly log sheet showing the condition of the unit and
noting any discrepancies. A copy of the log sheet should be sent to Data Aire. Failure to perform the long-term
storage requirements may void the warranty.
2.4.1 Suggested Reference Storage Room Conditions
This information is provided for reference and guidance purposes only.
• Dry bulb temperature range: 65°F to 85°F
• Effects of high temperatures may dry out components or may damage electrical components.
• Effects of low temperatures may cause freezing damage to coil, compressor, system components, electrical
components, etc. Freezing temperatures must be avoided.
• Humidity range: 25 to 50% RH
• High humidity may cause damage to insulation and electrical components. Storage in moist air, above 50%,
should be avoided. High humidity may cause rust on metal components such as sheave, pulley, blower
housing, cabinet parts, supports, etc.
• Low Humidity may cause brittle conditions to components within the unit. At low humidity, problems of
brittleness or electrical static might arise for the equipment.
• Level with floor.
• Units with compressor maximum tilt angle is 30° (compressor not running) but recommend the unit be set
level for 24 hours prior to final installation.
• Store at non-condensing temperature and humidity conditions.
2.4.2 General Storage Considerations
• All equipment shall be stored for safety of occupants. Per OSHA codes and codes applicable to your
installation.
• Maintain clearance from working space and traffic areas.
• Our indoor products are not designed or intended to be stored outdoors or exposed to outdoor conditions.
• Components sealed in plastic shrink-wrap are not exempt from this requirement. Moisture will collect
inside the plastic, resulting in corrosion of the cabinet, the electronic components and or other water
sensitive components.
• Provide proper fire protection per local and national codes.
• Protect from all water or fluid sources. Equipment should be protected from possible water damage, such
as from leaks, fire-sprinkler discharge, and flooding.
• The storage space should be filtered to remove dust, cleansed of gaseous contaminants, if present, and
controlled to the desired relative humidity and temperature.
• Isolate this equipment from pressure testing of water, steam, gas and air piping.
• Isolate this equipment from temporary building power.
• The unit must also be protected from damage to the exterior of the cabinet or coil connections by
construction vehicles and personnel.
• Isolate from vibration sources.
• Isolate from direct sun light.
• Isolate from storage of hazardous materials and substances.
