3.1 European Union Fluorinated Greenhouse Gas Requirements

Stationary air conditioning, refrigeration, heat pump equipment and stationary fire protection systems in the European Community market and operating with fluorinated greenhouse gases (f-gas), such as R407C, R134a, R410A, must comply with the F-Gas Regulation: (EC) No. 842/2006 (F-gas). The regulation prohibits, among other actions, venting fluorinated greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.

The F-Gas Regulation requires operators to use all measures that are technically feasible and do not entail disproportionate cost to prevent leakage of these gases, to test for leakage regularly and to recover f-gas as part of regular, scheduled maintenance or decommission.

Refer to the full regulation for additional details.



Note - Only properly trained and qualified personnel should service, charge or repair the system.



3.2 Mounting the Sun Cooling Door 5600 on a Sun Rack or Chassis

The Sun Cooling Door 5600 module mounts on the rear of a Sun rack or chassis with 14 M6 x 12mm bolts that secure the Sun Cooling Door 5600’s frame to the rack or chassis. This operation will require two persons to lift the Sun Cooling Door 5600 and hang it on bolt heads on the Sun rack or chassis.



Note - Risk of improper installation. Can cause equipment damage. The Sun Cooling Door 5600 must be installed by properly trained and qualified Liebert service personnel.


Before beginning to attach the Sun Cooling Door 5600 module on the Sun rack or chassis, remove the rear door from the rack or chassis. Refer to Appendix A for details.

1. Find the M6 x 12mm bolts that were shipped with the Sun Cooling Door 5600 and insert one in the top hole on each side of the rack.

2. Tighten the two bolts with a 10mm wrench, leaving enough space between the bolts’ flanged head to accept the thickness of the Sun Cooling Door 5600’s frame (2-3mm).

3. Lift the Sun Cooling Door 5600 by the handles on the side, match the keyhole slots to the bolts in the Sun rack or chassis and hang the Sun Cooling Door 5600 on the protruding bolt heads.

4. Insert the remaining bolts and tighten snugly with a 10mm wrench.

5. Tighten the bolts in the keyhole slots snugly with a 10mm wrench.

6. Remove the four handles (two on each side).

Each is attached with two socket head bolts with 6mm Allen key heads. Use a 6mm Allen wrench to remove the handles; store the handles for use in case the Sun Cooling Door 5600 must be removed from the Sun rack or chassis.

The Sun Cooling Door 5600 has supply and return connection points on the top of each module. The supply piping connection is 1/2" outside diameter copper pipe, and the return connection is 5/8" outside diameter copper pipe. The supply fitting is equipped with a Schrader valve. The door contains a shipping charge of dry nitrogen that should be purged before installation.

3.2.1.1 Attaching F-Pipe Fittings

1. Remove the cap from each Schrader valve on the Sun Cooling Door 5600 module and vent the shipping charge of nitrogen gas.

2. Find and open the bag containing the supply and return connectors that were shipped with the Sun Cooling Door 5600.

3. Attach the supply and the return connectors to the top of the Sun Cooling Door 5600. Position the connectors so that they do not interfere with rack use.

The supply fitting connection is 7/8" outside diameter copper pipe, and return fitting connection is 1-1/4" outside diameter copper. The supply fitting attaches to the right side of the Sun Cooling Door 5600 when viewed from behind and the return fitting attaches to the left side (refer to FIGURE 3-3).
