IMPORTANCE OF LEVELING A
REFRIGERATOR
In an absorption refrigerator system, ammonia is lique-
fied in the finned condenser coil at the top rear of the
refrigerator. The liquid ammonia then flows into the
evaporator (inside the freezer section) and is exposed
to a circulating flow of hydrogen gas, which causes the
ammonia to evaporate, creating a cold condition in the
freezer.
When starting this refrigerator for the very first time, the
cooling cycle may require up to four hours of running
time before the cooling unit is fully operational.
The tubing in the evaporator section is specifically sloped
to provide a continuous movement of liquid ammonia,
flowing downward by gravity through this section. If the
refrigerator is operated when it is not level and the ve-
hicle is not moving, liquid ammonia will accumulate in
sections of the evaporator tubing. This will slow the cir-
culation of hydrogen and ammonia gas, or in severe
cases, completely block it, resulting in a loss of cooling.
Any time the vehicle is parked for several hours with the
refrigerator operating, the vehicle should be leveled to
prevent this loss of cooling. The vehicle needs to be
leveled only so it is comfortable to live in (no noticeable
sloping of floor or walls).
When the vehicle is moving, the leveling is not critical,
as the rolling and pitching movement of the vehicle will
pass to either side of level, keeping the liquid ammonia
from accumulating in the evaporator tubing.
OPERATION
This refrigerator is equipped with an automatic defrost-
ing control system.
The defrost system will automatically carry out defrost in
frozen food and fresh food compartment once per 24
hours. To be able to control the performance of the de-
frost intervals the system is equipped with a built in real
time clock.
The clock has to be set to local time at the very first start
up of the refrigerator or when the 12-volt DC supply has
been disconnected for a longer period of time.
A message on the LED panel will alert when the clock
needs to be set.
