Figure 1. Sample Data Plate
When servicing a Cornelius Chiller, it is important to note the information contained on the data plate located in
the upper rear of the Unit.
If technical assistance is needed, the phone technician will need the Serial Number of your chiller. That information
is found on the Data Plate along with the model number, voltage requirement and refrigerant information.
The serial Number is also needed when replacement parts are being ordered or for warranty claims. See CHILLER
WARRANTY PAGE.
NOTE: Be sure to include the serial number on any documentation or billing information.

NSTALLATION
Location of Chiller
THE CHILLER MUST BE LOCATED NEAR A PROPERLY GROUNDED ELECTRICAL OUTLET. THE CIRCUIT
SHOULD BE FUSED AND NO OTHER ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE SHOULD BE CONNECTED TO THE
CIRCUIT. ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING MUST CONFORM TO NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.
The chiller must be located in a well ventilated, indoor area where ambient temperatures will remain above 40° F
(5° C) and will never increase above 100° F (38° C). To obtain optimum cooling capacity, the ambient
temperature should be at or below 80° F (27° C).
It is very important that the air intake and discharge sides of the chiller are not obstructed by other free standing
objects. A minimum of two feet of space on all four sides of the chiller will be sufficient to prevent air flow obstructions.
It is also important to direct any hot air discharge from other equipment away from the air intake side of the chiller.
Condenser air entering the “CH” unit should be below 100° F (38° C).Condenser air temperatures above 100° F
(38° C) can cause the high pressure safety control to shut down the unit.
Electrical Connections
All wiring must conform to the National Electric Code and any applicable local codes. The chiller must be
permanently wired by means of electrical conduit to a properly fused disconnect of proper amperage or wired to a
properly rated power cord and plugged into an outlet with the appropriate disconnect and amperage rating. The
electrical junction box, located on the back panel of the chiller, includes a four terminal strip for power supply
connection. Refer to Figure 2 for the CH250 model and Figure 3 for the CH251 model.
