Unit Installation
SELECTING A LOCATION FOR YOUR NEW UNIT
The following conditions should be considered when selecting a location for your
unit:
1.
Countertop Load:
The area on which the unit will rest must be level,
free of vibration, and suitably strong enough to support the combined
weights of the unit plus the maximum product load weight.
2.
Clearance:
There must be a combined total of at least 4” clearance on
mechanical compartment side of the unit (right side standard).
3.
Ventilation:
The air cooled self contained unit requires a sufficient
amount of cool clean air. Avoid surrounding your countertop rail
around other heat generating equipment and out of direct sunlight.
Also, avoid locating in an unheated room or where the room
temperature may drop below 55° F or above 86°F.
INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
After the final location has been determined, refer to the following checklist prior to
start-up:
1. Check cord and plug of unit to assure no damage has occurred to
these components.
2. Check all sheet metal surrounding the mechanical compartment to
assure no damage has occurred in these areas.
3. Plug in unit and turn on main on/off power switch.
4. Allow unit time to cool down to temperature. A layer of frost will form
and remain around the inside perimeter of the rail.
5. Refer to the front of this manual for serial number location. Please
record this information in your manual on page 3 now. It will be
necessary when ordering replacement parts or requesting warranty
service.
6. Confirm that the unit is holding temperature. Set control to desired
temperature for your particular ambient and altitude.
NOTE: FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTALLATION GUIDELINES AND
RECOMMENDATIONS MAY VOID THE WARRANTY ON YOUR UNIT.
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY:
The wiring should be done by a qualified electrician in
accordance with local electrical codes. A properly wired and grounded outlet will
assure proper operation. Please consult the data tag attached to the compressor
to ascertain the correct electrical requirements. Supply voltage and amperage
requirements are located on the serial number tag located inside the mechanical
housing.
NOTE: it is important that your unit has its own dedicated line. Condensing
units are designed to operate with a voltage fluctuation of plus or minus 10%
of the voltage indicated on the unit data tag. Burn out of a condensing unit
due to exceeding voltage limits will void the warranty.
