The circuit breaker must be at least 16 Amps.
* The insulation quality and thickness has to be in accordance with the volume of the cellar and the set temperature.
** The cooling performance is dependant from the outside temperature. Therefore, the set temperature of 12°C for the cellar cannot
be maintained if the outside temperature of the cellar is maintained at 35°C.
If the thermal safety functions to often, there is a risk for the condensator and starter to be damaged. In all the cases, it must be
avoided that the outside temperature remains at 35°C.
This high temperature should be limited to the summer period.
1. INSTALLATION OF THE WINEMASTER
The WINEMASTER is to be built in a wall of the cellar.
If the compressor runs the unit expells air at the outside air outlet at 20°C above
the temperature of the air inlet.
This hot air must be cooled in a well aerated room or be expelled outside.
1.1 EVACUATION ROOM
The “ hot “ side of the WINEMASTER must be inside a room.
Exceptionnaly, an outdoor installation is possible if the ouside part is sheltered and protected from the weather
(direct rain, snow, etc... ).
WARNING
Starting the compressor at a negative temperature will destroy it. To avoid this problem, you must not change
the setting of thermosat if the outside temperature is under zero. This specification doesn’t concern the model
WINE C18SR equipped with an heating belt on the compressor.
This model should be prefered for outside installation.
The room into which the wine evacuates the hot air must be well ventilated so that the temperature does not
exceed 35°C.
A space of at least 10 cm must remain all around the WINEMASTER so that the cover can be removed and that
hot air expelled is not aspired again in the air inlet.
The outside of the WINEMASTER must not be integrated in an underground cellar window or in too small a
space.
The wall where the device is to built-in must not be more than 22 cm thick. Otherwise, the wall must be cut in a
wedgeshape.
1.2 THE CELLAR
EQUIPMENT
1.2.1 INSULATION
Insulation of the 4 walls, the door, the ceiling and the floor is essential for the Winemaster to work
properly. Adequate insulation helps to obtain the stability of the temperature and the humidity.
