Installation
CAUTION
All materials and
connections must conform
to local requirements and
be in compliance with the
National Electrical Code
(NEC).
1. The freezer is designed for indoor
use and must be protected from outdoor
weather conditions.
2. Where codes permit, Electro
Freeze recommends that the floor model
freezers be installed on casters and have
flexible water and electrical connections
for easier service and cleaning.
3. All models are required to be open
at the top, have a minimum 6-inch (15.2
cm) rear clearance and 0 inches on the
side panels for adequate ventilation.
Anything blocking ventilation of the freezer
(including cone dispensers) will reduce the
efficiency of the freezer.
4.
Air cooled model SLX500
will
need an air deflector if the unit is to be
placed against a rear wall. The 6” wide x
21-7/8” long deflector is to be mounted to
the lower rear screws on the back panel of
the freezer.
Failure to install the deflec-
tor will void warranty.
5.
Water-cooled
models require a
3/8-inch MPT water inlet and water waste
connection. The connections are found on
the bottom, under the compressor mounting
area. They are tagged “Water Inlet” and
“Water Waste.” A manual shut-off valve
should be installed in the water inlet line at
the time of installation. The water pressure
must be between 35-140 psig (241-965
kPa) for proper operation.
6. Place the freezer in its final
location and adjust the legs or casters
so that it is level side-to-side and the
front is approximately 1/4-inch lower than
the rear to allow proper drainage of the
freezing cylinder.

Electrical Requirements-Models SLX500 and SLX400
CAUTION
To prevent accidental
electrical shock, a positive
earth ground is required.
1. Always verify electrical specifi-
cations on the data plate (figure 3-1) of
each freezer. Data plate specifications
will always supersede the information in
this manual.
2. Supply voltage must be
10% of voltage indicated on the name-
plate. Also, on three-phase systems,
voltage between phases must be bal-
anced within 2%. (More than a 6 volt
difference between any two voltage
measurements at 208-230 volts indi-
cates a possible imbalance.) Request
your local power company to correct any
voltage problem.
3. An easily accessible main power
disconnect must be provided for all
poles of the wiring to the freezer.
