A.2 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS FOR RT MODELS
A.2.1 SINGLE FAN TOWERS
Follow this procedure to assemble and install Single Fan Cooling Towers.
A. Upon the arrival of the equipment to its final destination, check for any abnormality or apparent damage
to the packaging before unloading the Cooling Tower and its components. The packing list must match
with the received merchandise. Any equipment absences or abnormality must be reported directly to
your local REYMSA representative.
B. After verifying the equipment is received in proper condition, proceed to unload it piece by piece, with
a crane or forklift of the appropriate capacity (see Figure A-3 and Figure A-4 for reference).
C. For crane lifting, it’s recommended to use a minimum lifting angle of 60º between the strap and the
horizontal. The basin section of the Single Fan towers has U-bolts on the flange for lifting, one on each
corner. Place the straps through the u-bolts (as shown in Figure A-4). Don’t balance until tensing the straps.
D. Remove the plastic wrap that surrounds the Tower and its components, loosen the nuts and bolts that keep
the basin section attached to the wooden pallet (the body comes unattached), the nuts and bolts are
located at the bottom of the basin (some models comes totally unattached to the pallet).
E. Before Tower’s assembly, REYMSA recommends to install a steel base structure that supports the Tower’s
operational weight; also place an isolation pad (supplied by others) between the Tower and the base
structure for support purposes. Verify that the base structure has the proper dimensions (for construction,
refer to factory certified drawings). For more information, see section “A.11.1 LEVELING AND TOWER
SUPPORTS”.
