REFRIGERATED "AIRSCREEN" SERIES
TRANSPORTING
1. WARNING:
Do not attempt to move the AirScreen Refrigerator until the unit is turned
off, the power cord is unplugged and out of the way, or secured around the rear handle.
2. Door must be securely closed and all caster locks released.
3. Maneuver the unit by grasping the handles on the sides or rear.
4. CAUTION:
The unit is designed for internal use and not designed for outdoor all-
terrain transport.
5. CAUTION:
The heavy compressor assembly is located
at the bottom of the unit and lowers its center of gravity.
Moving the product loaded with product can change the
center of gravity making the unit top heavy losing some
stability. Be extra cautious when approaching uneven
flooring and when going over door thresholds, drains and
grates.
UNIT FEATURES
Temperature setting:
Your units operating temperature is preset to 38°F (3.3°C) with an operating temperature range
of 33°F to 40°F (.5°C to 4.4°C).
Full Swing Door with Magnetic (hold open) Catch:
Door can open flat against the cabinet side and is secured in place by a magnetic catch.
Closed door is secured magnetically thus removing the need for a cumbersome door latch.
Tray Slides:
Ten (10) pairs of removable stainless steel tray slides are provided. Tray slides are spaced at
4 ½” and each space can accommodate one (1) 18”x26” standard sheet pan.
Side Grips and Rear Handles:
For ease of mobility stainless steel recessed hand grips are provided on the left and right sides
and a 1” welded tubular push/pull handle is attached to the rear of the cabinet.
Casters:
6” diameter polyurethane casters attached to 10 gauge stainless steel corner reinforcement
plates are standard. Front casters have foot actuated locks.
INSTALLATION
Location:
The proper location and assembly of your FWE AirScreen is extremely important for proper
performance. Carefully follow the guidelines listed below:
1. Install unit level.
This is important for the health of the refrigeration system and efficient draining of the defrost
water. Improper draining of evaporator water can cause loss in performance and require additional
defrosting.
2. Install unit away from hot cooking equipment or other sources of heat.
Being near heat sources can increase the ambient temperature around the unit making it work
harder, lose efficiency and shorten effective open door time.
3. Install unit away from appliances that give off steam or moisture.
Increased room humidity speeds up the formation of frost on the evaporator coil shortening the
effective open door time.
4. Install the unit away from room ventilation ducts and not under ventilation hoods.
Moving air from ventilation ducts or hoods can disturb the air flow around the unit which can cause
poor open door performance. Especially avoid locations where there is airflow directed at the front
of the unit that can push air and humidity into the cabinet when the door is open. Also avoid drafty
locations like near frequently opened doors.
5. Install the unit with a minimum of 6” from the back of the unit to a wall or other obstruction.
Proper clearance is required for good airflow around the condenser unit for efficient operation.
6. Install unit so the doors can be opened a minimum of 90 degrees:
The door is designed to swing and latch to the side of the unit.
7. Install the tray slides:
Tray slides have tabs formed into them. Slide the tabs into the square holes on the side of the
cabinet and push down to seat. The slides can be installed level or can be mounted at a slight slope
forward to help product slide forward on the trays.
8. Side air tunnels:
Side tunnels inside the unit must be installed tightly against the inside walls of the cabinet. This is
important for proper cold air flow across the product on the trays.
9. Install unit away from areas where there may be frequent standing water.
10. Install unit in an area that is conducive to safe and proper use.
