•
Your
ICE AIR
unit must be properly installed and com-
missioned to operate correctly. Improper unit installa-
tion, adjustment or commissioning, and / or improper
piping installation and connection can lead to equipment
malfunction and hazardous operating conditions, and
may void your Warranty. If you have any doubt about the
proper installation of your CHW unit, please contact your
property manager at once to have a qualified technician
inspect the equipment. Do NOT operate the equipment
when in doubt – have it inspected first!
•
Your
ICE AIR
equipment is covered by a manufacturer’s
Warranty (see Warranty Information Sheet for full terms
and conditions). Your unit(s) must be properly installed
and kept free of obstructions. Additionally, proper clean-
ing of the unit filter, evaporator coil and all air flow areas
must be maintained. Failure to do so will decrease unit
function and efficiency, and may void your Warranty.
ELECTRICAL DATA
•
Ensure that available power is the same voltage and
phase as indicated on the unit serial plate. Line and volt-
age wiring must be executed in accordance with local
codes or to the National Electrical Code or in Canada to
Canadian Electrical Standards (whichever is applicable).
•
Apply correct line voltage to unit. Disconnect switch near
unit is required by code. Power to unit must be sized
correctly and have dual element class RK5 fuses or HACR
circuit breaker for branch circuit overcurrent protection.
Consult the unit serial plate for current ratings.
•
All 208/230V units are wired for 208V operation
unless otherwise specified.
The following physical conditions must be maintained for
proper unit operation:
•
Unobstructed air flow into and out of the unit room
enclosure (cabinet).
Therefore:
- Do not place furniture, rugs or objects directly in front
of, underneath or against the unit cabinet front.
- Do not place plants, fabrics or objects on top of or
blocking the enclosure discharge grille (at the cabinet
top).
- Do not block the top of the cabinet with drapes or
curtains. To ensure proper cooling and heating, drapes
and curtains should be opened or positioned so that
the air discharge from the unit does not flow behind
these window treatments.
- Have the unit filter properly cleaned and serviced to
prevent air blockage from dirt and dust within the filter
media.
•
Proper installation and operating environment must be
maintained.
Therefore
:
- Do not operate the unit in corrosive environments such
as chemical plants, refineries or salt spray areas.
- Operate only with proper electrical service and
protective circuit breakers or fuses in place.
- Operate only with all chassis and enclosure sheet
metal parts in place and properly installed.
- In areas of high concentrations of dirt, dust, pet dander
or pollutants, clean the filter often (at least monthly).
- Do not clean the unit with any solvents or cleaning
solutions that may damage the equipment (see
maintenance Instructions for proper cleaning
protocols).
- Understand and follow the unit operating instructions
below before using your WCAC equipment.
