Receiving and Storage

Upon receipt of the equipment, check the carton and pallets

for visible damage. Make a notation on the shipper’s delivery

ticket before signing. If there is any evidence of rough handling,

immediately open the cartons to check for concealed damage.

If any damage is found, notify the carrier within 48 hours to

establish your claim and request their inspection and a report.

The Warranty Claims Department should then be contacted.

Cabinet Stacking (1 unit per crate)

Do not stack over three crates high at any time during trans-

portation or storage.

Pallet front

Risers

Risers are factory supplied with

cabinet for eld installation.

Unit front

Note: Packaging has been tested and certied in accordance with the

International Safe Transit Association (ISTA), test procedure 3B.

Chassis (4 per skid)

Do not stack over two skid high at any time during transporta-

tion or storage. For storing, each carton is marked with “up”

arrows.

Storage and Operating Environment

Temporary storage at the job site must be indoor, completely

sheltered from rain, snow, etc. Units should not be installed in

environments that fall below freezing or exceed 140°F ambient.

Handling

Carefully check items against the bills of lading to verify all

crates and cartons have been received.Cabinets and Chassis

normally ship four to a pallet.

Carefully inspect all units for shipping damage. Report

damage immediately to the carrier and le a claim.

Check the unit data plate to be sure the unit electrical agrees

with the power supply available (Figure 1).

DO NOT handle units by the riser piping. Riser clamps hold the

riser in position; they are not designed to support the cabinet

weight. The clamps are removed after the unit is installed.

Component Descriptions (Assembled Cabinet)

1. Cabinet assembly complete (without chassis)

1a. Pipe riser sets (return, supply and condensate)

1b. Inner front panel and lter bracket

2. Cooling and heating chassis (shipped separate)

3. Return air grille/panel (accessory)

4. Double-deection diffuser (accessory)

Unit cabinets are factory assembled and wired and have

individual thermostat control capability. They are installed by

stacking one unit on top of the other. While installing, prevent

dirt and other foreign matter from entering the risers and plug-

ging lines or valves.

General Information

Daikin Vertical Stack units are designed for use in multiple oor

apartments, ofce buildings, hotels, nursing homes and other

Disassembling Upper and Lower Cabinet

Sections

The Vertical Stack unit cabinet ships completely assembled. If

required, it may be disassembled into two (2) sections (upper-

fan/discharge cabinet) and (lower chassis/return air cabinet) to

make it easier to handle. To disassemble, do the following.

1. Remove risers (if received attached).

2 Remove the three (bottom row) screws on the back of the

unit as shown in Figure 2.

Note: Retain all screws for later use to reassemble unit in

reverse order as described in steps 1-6. Number of

screws will vary depending on unit size.

3. Carefully lay the unit down on its back and remove the

remaining eight (8) screws on the left and right side of the

cabinet (Figure 3).

4. Remove the ten (10) screws and lift off the front panel/lter

rack to gain access to the cabinet interior (Figure 4).

5. Locate and remove the six (6) screws located inside the

cabinet joining the upper and lower cabinet sections

(Figure 5).

Note: Pull the insulaton away from the walls of the cabinet

interior to get access to the screws.

6. Separate the lower return air cabinet section from the upper

blower/discharge cabinet section (Figure 6).

Figure 2: Remove three (3) screws (bottom row) on the

back of the unit.
