NOTES:
1. All dimensions in mm are accurate and take into account absorber-condenser crossover piping.
2. For routine maintenance, allow 3ft (1m) clearance on all sides and 6in. (150mm) above chiller.
3. For service access, allow clearance as follows:
a. For tube removal, allow space equal to ―A‖ dimension (length) at either end of the chiller.
b. To open waterbox cover, allow clearance space equal to half of ―D‖ dimension (width) on the waterbox end of the chiller.

NOTES:
1. The foundation load should be designed according to the operating weight of chiller.
2. The base must be smooth and horizontal (the level should be below 1mm for 1000mm).
3. The function of hole based on the foundation is to fix the chiller by bolts, and cement could be fit from the slant cut of the holes.
4. Tube space could be saved at either side.
5. Anchor bolts, washers and nuts are supplied by customer.
6. 16DNH150 and 116DNH 165 use the dimension M* and N*.
