Transport

2. Transport

2.1 Transport

The enclosure is top heavy. See the centre of gravity location on the specific GA drawings.

2.2 Lifting the enclosure

A crane, which can lift the stated weight of the enclosure, is required. Further, a lifting yoke

must be used to make sure the panel plates are not damaged when lifted, see Fig. 1

Transport

2.3 Fixing the enclosure during transport

Place the enclosure on straws and fasten it by lashing straps to prevent it from tipping during

transport, see Fig. 2.

Fig. 2

2.4 Enclosed trailer

The best way to transport the enclosure is in an enclosed mega trailer. Customised enclosures

that cannot be transported in an enclosed trailer must NOT be covered by a tarpaulin instead,

as the tarpaulin may damage the panels.

If transportation in a closed trailer is not possible, and there is risk of salt spraying onto the en-

closure during transport, the enclosure must be thoroughly washed when arriving on site.

2.5 Transport security

The door panels must be stabilised during transport. By inserting blocks underneath the doors

as shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, the hinges are protected from damage.

The threaded plunger from the safety relief system should be closed with tape or a plug during

transport, see Fig. 5

3. Installation on site

3.1 Panel adjustment

The door hinges may loosen a little during transport so that the door is sagging or crooked on

delivery, and this may cause the door to hit the aluminum profile (indicated by the green ar-

rows). This may occur even though transport bricks have been used as instructed in section

2.5.

It may therefore be necessary to adjust the door in the hinge to make it open and close prop-

erly. Adjust the door by tightening the screws in the hinges.

4.1 Safety

Safety box

The enclosure is classified as a machinery room. As the room is not part of a building, some re-

quirements can be waived. There is light inside and an emergency exit sign above the doors.

Manual control of the fans, main switch and emergency stop is possible from the front of the

safety box. It has indicators for Fan running, Gas detector (low and high alarm) and Tempera-

ture from inside probe.

Fig. 13

For more specific information, please see the electrical drawings in the appendix.

4.2 Area classification

All refrigerant-containing parts are located in a ventilated enclosure or open air. The ventilated

enclosure is classified as a machinery room, and the requirements for a class III location are

applied (EN 378).

As a unit, the enclosure is intended for use in normal areas; however, the inside of the venti-

lated enclosure and a volume around the ventilation outlet opening are zone 2 areas during

normal operation.

Under ATEX, areas are classified according to the hazards associated with flammable gas.

The following classification applies to the inside of the refrigerated and ventilated enclosure:

•Zone 2: an area in which a flammable gas atmosphere is not likely to occur during nor-

mal operation, and if it does occur, it will exist for a short period of time only.

•Secondary grade of release: this is not expected to occur during normal operation,

and if it does occur, it will be infrequent and for short periods of time only.

A refrigerant detector and ventilation are suitable equipment for zone 2: a refrigerant detector

fitted into the enclosed space to start forced ventilation, if necessary, and to isolate all electrical

ignition sources that are not suitable for zone 2 as ultimate protection (EN 60079-10).

The local fire authorities may have certain additional requirements for the location of the plant.

Such requirements may include:

• Distance to buildings and other machinery

• ATEX according to EN 60079-10 and EN 378-3

The unit fully complies with the requirements of both EN 60079-10 and EN 378-3.

Fig. 14

Note: When installing a unit, it must be taken into consideration that the emergency ventilation

exhaust outlet is zone 2 (EN 60079-10).

When installing equipment within 2 metres in all directions from the ventilation outlet, as illus-

trated in Fig. 14, all ignition sources must either be suitable equipment for zone 2 or electrically

isolated when the leak detection system in the enclosure detects high level alarm. This area

must be marked with the signs “No open flame”, “Flammable gas” and “The unit is filled with re-

frigerant R717”.

4.3 Leak detection system

The leak detection system has two levels:

• Level A: High level - Emergency stop

• Level B: Low level - Alarm

Function Normal

Refrigerant detector ON ON ON

Evacuation fan OFF ON ON

Yellow indicator light OFF ON ON

Red indicator light OFF ON OFF

Refrigeration system ON OFF ON

Potential-free signal OFF ON ON

Table 1: Operation condition with refrigerant detector

Level A: Emergency stop: The safety box makes an emergency stop signal, and then voltage

will be disconnected to all electrical equipment in the compressor enclosure and all equipment

in the zone 2 area outside the enclosure. This requires an external power switch, which must

be supplied by the customer. The power switch is not part of the enclosure delivery.

The refrigerant detector and evacuation fan are still in operation as they are ATEX executions

(Equipment Group II category 2).

The red indicator light is ON in the electrical panel.

Start-up after emergency stop: reset the plant manually on the push-button.

Level B: Alarm: The evacuation fan starts, and the refrigeration system continues operating.

4.4 Evacuation fan

When the evacuation fan is in operation, there must be an underpressure in the enclosure. If

the differential pressure switch detects missing underpressure for more than 60 seconds, it will

issue a warning via an indicator light in the electrical panel. The operator must then locate the

reason for the missing underpressure on the enclosure. Check for instance that the machine

doors are closed correctly, and check the direction of rotation of the evacuation fan.

The evacuation fan also starts if the temperature inside the enclosure exceeds the set value.

The refrigeration plant will still run. The evacuation fan can also be started manually on the

changeover switch.

4.6 Sensors

Two sensors are mounted at the top of the enclosure: one for ammonia and one for ventilation.

Fig. 21 Fig. 22

Fig. 21 shows the ammonia detector, which activates the ventilation system at certain quanti-

ties (350 mg/m3starts a prealarm) and gives signal to turn off the power to the plant at other

quantities (21,200 mg/m3starts the main alarm).

Fig. 22 shows a temperature sensor, which starts the ventilation system at 35°C.

It is recommended to test the detector system twice a year. See attachment in section 5. Ap-

pendices for the detector instructions.

4.7 Ventilation

Check regularly that the ventilation filter is not clogged with dirt. The filter is accessible from

the inside of the door panel, see Fig. 23 and Fig. 24.

The operation and maintenance instruction for the ventilator is attached in section 5.

Appendices.

Fig. 23 Fig. 24

4.8 Oil trap for protection of safety valves

Check regularly that the oil trap has oil. The green ball should float in the sight glass, Fig. 25.

The oil trap prevents moisture from getting into the safety valve and cause jamming. If the oil

trap is empty, check if there has been a pressure relief from the vessels. If necessary, there is

a nipple for charging and one for draining oil, see Fig. 25.

4.9 Siren and alarm

Do NOT open the door, if the siren and alarm are on.

If the siren and alarm are on, gas has been detected. The detection will also activate the venti-

lation system to let fresh air into the enclosure and ensure that the gas concentration cannot

cause explosion hazard.

When a leak is identified, it must be determined whether it is so severe that it requires full

emergency procedures, or if it can be contained by trained personnel on site.

The siren and alarm are placed on the outside of the enclosure over the double door in the end

or over the control box at the front.

Fig. 26

4.10 Access for major repairs or service

If major repair is required, the entire front and most of the back can be demounted. Pay atten-

tion to disassembly of panels with pipe penetration as they will require new insulation and cov-

ering at the pipes. Also be aware of the three-part panel section with the control box, which is

difficult to disassemble because of wires etc.

Do not dismantle both sides at the same time as this may damage the roof.
