Storage and Handling
Please take care when handling a packaged Remeha Flexistor. The unit is heavy and must only be moved manually within safe working
practices. If the unit is to be stored before installation, it must be placed on a secure, level surface and in a dry, frost free environment.
Precautions to be carried out prior to commencement of work:
1. Tidy area ensuring there is safe access and egress to installation place, free from trip hazards.
2. Be aware of other people who may be in the area
3. Operate any machinery in accordance with training and operating instructions
4. Visually inspect the equipment prior to use, do not use damaged equipment.
5. Safe working practices are adopted for manual handling of appliances/parts
6. Correct PPE to be worn.
The Remeha Flexistor unit must be vertically floor mounted. It can be placed anywhere convenient provided the discharge pipe(s) from its safety
valves can be correctly installed. Areas that are subject to freezing must be avoided. Ensure that the floor is level and of sufficient strength to
support the "full" weight of the unit when filled with water (refer to Table 5 for unit weights). Pipe runs should be kept as short as possible for
maximum economy. Access to associated controls, immersion heaters and indirect controls should be possible for servicing and maintenance of
the system.
To aid installation, the Remeha Flexistor is provided with lifting points located at the top of the unit. To access the lifting eyes please remove the
red outlet grommet and the top cover. The weights of the units are noted on Table 5.
