5. Installation
Place the unit on an even surface on a base made of
nonflammable
material.
Cooling machine, pump motor and electronics produce intrinsic
heat that is dissipated via the venting openings.! Never cover
these openings!
Keep at least 20 cm of open space on the front and rear venting
grids.
The place of installation should be large enough and provide
sufficient air ventilation to ensure the room does not warm up
excessively because of the heat the instrument rejects to the
environment. (Max. permissible ambient temperature: 35 °C).
For a fault (leakage) in the refrigeration system, the standard EN
378 prescribes a certain room space to be available for each kg
of refrigerant.
The necessary amount of refrigerant is specified on the type
plate.
> For 0.25 kg of refrigerant R134a, 1 m
3
of space is required.
> For 0.52 kg of refrigerant R404A, 1 m
3
of space is required.
