ELECTRICAL 

 

Check the proposed outlet to be used to insure that the voltage, phase, and current carrying 
capacity of the circuit from the electrical panel correspond to the requirements of the cabinet. 

NEVER

 use an extension cord to power any unit. All wiring between the electrical panel and the unit 

must be done in accordance with the National Electric Code and all state and local codes. Refer to 
the Electrical Data below and the Serial Tag for all pertinent electrical information. 

Observe all Warning Labels. Disconnect power supply to eliminate injury from electrical 
shock or moving parts when servicing equipment.

GENERAL OPERATION 

 
 
The milk coolers are cooled entirely by forced air evaporator. During the refrigeration process, heat 
is removed through the evaporator tubing and expelled through the condensing unit. It is important 
that the flow of air through the side louvers is not restricted in order to ensure the condensing unit 
operates properly. Under normal operating conditions, any frost that might accumulate on the walls 
during the "on" cycle of the condensing unit may melt during the "off" cycle. Drains are installed in 
all milk coolers to accommodate melting frost. 
 

The refrigeration system on this cabinet utilizes a programmable temperature controller to 
control the temperature and defrost settings. The controller, which is located in the 
condensing unit enclosure, is factory set. Please see the default settings sheet and separate 
instructions that are included on the operation of this controller.  
 

During the operation of the refrigeration unit, frost will periodically form on the evaporator coil 
surface. Each time the compressor cycles “off”, the evaporator fans will continue to run, which will 
keep the internal temperature uniform and, at the same time, remove any frost build up on the coil. 
The water produced will collect in the condensing unit drain pan and evaporate.
