INSTALLATION
Storage
Ifthecontrollerisnotinstalledandenergizedimmediately,Firetrolrecommendsfollowingthe
instructionsinchapter3ofNEMAICS15.
Seismic
DieselFirePumpcontrollersareoptionallyseismicapprovedandhasbeentestedinaccordance
withtheICC-ESAC156,IBC2015&CBC2013standards.Properinstallation,anchoringand
mountingisrequiredtovalidatethiscompliancereport.Refertothismanualanddrawingsto
determinetheseismicmountingrequirementsandlocationofthecenterofgravity(youmayneed
tocontactfactory).Theequipmentmanufacturerisnotresponsibleforthespecificationandper-
formanceofanchoragesystems.Thestructuralengineerofrecordontheprojectshallberespons-
ibleforanchoragedetails.Theequipmentinstallationcontractorshallberesponsibleforensuring
therequirementsspecifiedbythestructuralengineerofrecordaresatisfied.Ifdetailedseismic
installationcalculationsarerequired,pleasecontactthemanufacturerfortheperformanceofthis
work.
Environment
DieselFirePumpcontrollersareintendedtobeinstalledinlocationswhereambienttemperatures
arewithin4°Cand40°Candtherelativehumidityiscontrolledbetween5%and80%.Optionally,
thecontrollercanhaveanextendedtemperatureofupto55°Candaslowas-5°C,providedthat
thecontrollerandthepressurewaterpipesareheatedtopreventwaterfreezinganddamaging
theelectronicsandthepipingsystem.
Theyareintendedforpollutiondegree3andshallbeinstalledatanaltitudeofnomorethan2000
meters.Forabnormalinstallationenvironment,consultfactory.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
DieselFirePumpcontrollershavebeentestedforthemoststringentconditionsforemissions
(EnvironmentB)andimmunity(EnvironmentA),hencecontrollerscanbeinstalledineitherenvir-
onment.Allcontrollersvariantssharethesameelectronicsandcomplytothosecriteriawithout
requiringadditionalmeasures.
Handling
TheweightofeachDieselFirePumpcontrollerisindicatedonthepackinglabel.Lightweightcon-
trollersdonotrequirespecialhandlinginstructions,whileheavycontrollersareequippedwithlift-
ingmeansandshouldbehandledfollowingtheguidelinesspecifiedinFiretrol'sdocument"Large
EnclosureSafeHandlingRequirements_PN12162021".
