18600 and CTP-NB Series Service and Installation Manual

Location
These units are intended for indoor use only. Be sure the location
chosen has a floor strong enough to support the total weight of the
cabinet and contents. A fully loaded 72” long model may weigh as
much as 1200 pounds. Reinforce the floor as necessary to provide
for maximum loading.
For the most efficient refrigeration, be sure to provide good air
circulation inside and out.
Inside cabinet
: Do not pack refrigerator so full that air cannot
circulate.
Outside cabinet:
Be sure that the unit has access to ample air. Avoid
hot corners and locations near stoves and ovens.
It is recommended that the unit be installed no closer than 1” from
any wall. PDL models also require 14” (36cm) clearance at the top
and 6” (15cm) clearance at the bottom (casters).
Leveling
A level cabinet looks better and will perform better because the drain
pan will drain properly, the doors will line up with the frames properly,
and the cabinet will not be subject to undue strain.
Some models have casters for your convenience, for ease of cleaning
underneath and for mobility. It is important that the unit be installed
in a stable condition with the front casters locked before operating.
Plumbing
Self-contained models are standard with a condensate evaporator. If,
for some reason, a unit does not have a condensate evaporator, or the
evaporator fails, the unit’s drain must have an outlet to an appropriate
drainage area or container.
Moisture collecting from improper drainage can create
a slippery surface on the floor and a hazard to
employees. It is the owner’s responsibility to provide
a container or outlet for drainage.
Electrical connection
Refer to the amperage data, the serial tag, your local code or the
National Electrical Code to be sure the unit is connected to the proper
power source. A protected circuit of the correct voltage and amperage
must be run for con nec tion of the line cord, or permanent connection
to the unit.
The power switch must be turned to OFF and the
unit disconnected from the power source whenever
performing service or maintenance functions.
Never operate the unit without the louvered panel in
place!
