STARTING & TESTING THE UNIT
1. To charge the unit, use the "HARD" cycle and the "MANUAL" mode. Set for two hours of
operation to allow enough time to fully charge the unit.
IMPORTANT: Immediately after starting the unit, check that the evaporator fans
inside the cabinet are rotating CLOCKWISE. Check if the fans in the condensing unit
are rotating in accordance with the arrows on the blades. Improper rotation will
damage the unit and void the warranty.
2. Start the unit per 1. above and in accordance with the following operating instructions, then
perform at least one complete blast chilling or shock freezing cycle. When done, instruct the client
on the correct use of the unit.
3. By the end of the cycle the unit should have pulled down to 0
o
F (AP120BCF1300-3) or 10
o
F
(AP120BC1000-3). It should have been cycling between 0
o
F and 10
o
F (AP120BCF1300-3) or
between 10
o
F and 20
o
F (AP120BC1000-3); and the sight glass must be clear.
4. As soon as possible after the unit has been started, check the power consumption, the standard
pressure measurements and the operation of all the controls.
NOTE: The refrigerating system works on pressure. An electro valve mounted on the top of the
cabinet is controlled by the electronic controller. When the temperature of the air in the cabinet falls
to the programmed low temp setting, the electro valve will close (0 VAC) and the unit will pump
down. When the temperature of the air in the cabinet rises to the programmed high temp setting,
the electro valve will open and refrigeration will start.
