Mechanical Installation
Lifting and Rigging
Use spreader bars for lifting to prevent equipment damage. Use cables (chains or slings) as shown on Pic. E.1.
o Use dehumidifier lifting brackets at
the base frame.
Each of the lifting cables (chains or slings)
must be capable to support the entire
weight of the equipment.
Determine the approximate centre of
gravity before lifting. See equipment design
drawings in the submittal documents for the
total weight and weight distribution.
Lifting cables (chains or slings) may not be of
the same length. Adjust as necessary for an
even lift.
Do not lift equipment in windy conditions.
Do not raise equipment overhead with
personnel below.
Test lift the equipment 24 inches to verify
proper operation of lifting machinery and
positioning of lift points such that the lifted equipment is level.
To avoid damage, do not attach intake or exhaust hoods prior to lifting
“Split-Cut” Dehumidifier Lifting
Some dehumidifiers may, if requested, be shipped in sections to be assembled on site.
Never assemble split sections before lifting them to the installation location.
o Always lift sections separately, as received from the factory.
Lift each section using its lifting lugs/brackets.

WARNING! Lifting and rigging must be done by trained professionals in accordance with proper lifting
techniques and safety procedures. Proper lifting machinery and tools and safety equipment (PPE) must be used.
Improper lifting may cause equipment damage, serious injury, or death. Dectron Technologies Inc. is not
responsible for the improper use of lifting equipment.
WARNING! All work must be done by qualified personnel in accordance with local and national Codes,
Standards and Regulations as well as respective design/submittal documentation and Dectron recommendations.
CAUTION! Obtain all necessary documentation (Dectron documentation, submittal documentation,
