OMNIA M 3.2
•
Strong winds of 5 m/sec or more blowing against the unit's air outlet causes a short circuit (suction of discharge air), and
this may have the following consequences:
- Deterioration of the operational capacity.
- Frequent frost acceleration in heating operation.
- Disruption of operation due to rise of high pressure.
- When a strong wind blows continuously on the front of the unit, the fan can start rotating very fast until it breaks.
In normal condition,refer to the figures below for install ation
of the unit:
In case of strong wind and the wind direction can be
foreseen,refer to the figures below for installation of the unit
(any one is
):
Tum the air outlet side toward the building's wall, fence or
screen.
Make sure there is enough room to do the installation.
Set the outlet side at a right angle to the direction of the
wind.
•
Prepare a water drainage channel around the foundation,
to drain waste water from around the unit.
•
If water does not easily drain from the unit, mount the unit
on a foundation of concrete blocks, etc. (the height of the
foundation should be about 100 mm (3.93 in).

•
If you install the unit on a frame, please install a
waterproof plate (about 100 mm) on the underside of the
unit to prevent water from coming in from the low side.
•
When installing the unit ina place frequently exposed to
snow, pay special attention to elevate the foundation as
high as possible.
•
If you install the unit on a building frame,
please install a waterproof plate (field
supply) (within 150mm of the underside
of the unit) in order to avoid drain water
dripping. (See the picture in the right).
6.1 Selecting a location in cold
climates
Refer to "Handling" in section "4 Before installation"
NOTE
When operating the unit in cold climates, be sure to
follow the instructions described below.
•
To prevent exposure to wind, install the unit with its
suction side facing the wall.
•
Never install the unit at a site where the suction side may
be exposed directly to wind.
•
To prevent exposure to wind, install a baffle plate on the
air discharge side of the unit.
•
In heavy snowfall areas, it is very important to select an
installation site where the snow will not affect the unit.
If lateral snowfall is possible, make sure that the heat
exchanger coil is not affected by the snow (if necessary
construct a lateral canopy).
Construct a large canopy.
Construct a pedestal.
Install the unit high enough off the ground to prevent it
from being buried in snow.
