Bare compressor or loose components:<br />
Determine the dead weight of the particular<br />
component (see "Engineering<br />
Data"), prior to moving a bare compressor<br />
or loose component. Use the hoisting<br />
eyes only to lift so, DO NOT sling<br />
from other compressor parts (see figure<br />
A1.1A).<br />

Moving by fork-lift truck<br />
The bare compressor or package can be<br />
transported with a fork-lift truck with the forks<br />
spread as much as possible between the skids. To<br />
simplify moving, the 2 wooden transport beams<br />
must still be mounted underneath the base frame<br />
<strong>and</strong> stored in this way, untill the package is<br />
positioned above its approximate location.<br />
A: INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION FOR USE<br />
A1.1.2 Storage<br />
The compressor (package) is filled with dry<br />
nitrogen. Keep the system closed until the<br />
package is<br />
installed. If the compressor (package) is stored, it<br />
should be kept at all times in a dry location to<br />
prevent corrosion damage. If the compressor<br />
(package) is to be stored for a prolonged period<br />
of time, it should be checked weekly to ensure<br />
that the holding charge of dry nitrogen remains<br />
above atmospheric pressure.<br />
A1.2 Required free space<br />
For easy operating, servicing <strong>and</strong> maintenance<br />
access, the compressor (package) should be at<br />
least installed with sufficient free space around it.<br />
A1.3 Foundation requirements<br />
This paragraph covers measures to be taken for a<br />
compressor (package) on a concrete floor.<br />
Two foundation arrangements are described:<br />
• Compressor package with steel base frame<br />
mounted on a concrete block.<br />
• Bare compressor direct mounted on a concrete<br />
block via grouted machined anchors (see<br />
"Engineering Data"). The mounting surfaces of<br />
these machined anchors must be level without<br />
any deviation <strong>and</strong> projecting at least 10 mm<br />
above the concrete base.<br />

PACKAGE TO BE MOUNTED ON A<br />
CONCRETE BLOCK<br />
On request, Grasso can calculate the<br />
exact dimensions of the concrete block,<br />
based on the compressor size <strong>and</strong><br />
operating conditions.<br />
