2.2.2 Characteristics of the room
• The machine must be installed in a very well ventilated room with correct lighting
and a temperature in the range from -10 to + 40°C (temperature limits for the
electronic frequency regulator of the driving motor) .
• Sufficient space must be left around the machine to allow for its correct
functioning.
• On each side sufficient space must be left in front of the portholes so that the
machine operator can work correctly and without danger.
• Levelling should be carried out correctly on a hard and stable floor surface,
capable of supporting the considerable weight of the machine (430 kg on 1 m²).
The floor must at least be able to support 500 kg per m
²
for the installation of
such a machine.
Correct levelling also guarantees an optimum performance of the suspensions and the
water bath, which is balanced horizontally.
All machine types should further be fixed to the floor by self-boring plugs of size M12.
Indeed, when an important unbalance occurs, the machine may move slightly, no longer
be perfectly horizontal (see drawing), and exert forces on the feeding and draining
tubes.
With this type of machine it is possible to insert wedges between the frame and the floor
in order to level it.
Construction work required
:
• No concrete support is needed.
• No vibration is transmitted to the floor.
To evacuate used water, a drain of at least 150 x 150 mm must be located right under
machine.
