VII. Specific Model Data
Kooltronic Air Conditioners have been engineered to be installed easily. To avoid damaging your air
conditioner, please read the following information before installation.
Mounting: Micro-Mini and Super-Mini
•
Panel-mounted air conditioners are equipped with two vertical mounting rails. These rails can
be
mounted to any available vertical surface on the enclosure.
•
Refer to page 8 for the location of all mounting holes and cutouts.
•
Make sure the cutouts don't interfere with components inside your cabinet.
•
Proper alignment of all air inlets and outlets is essential for optimum performance of the air conditioner.
•
All externally-mounted air conditioners are fully gasketed to ensure proper sealing. This seal is
necessary to maintain the integrity of the closed loop system.
•
Use all existing mounting holes to insure stability and a tight seal.
•
High strength mounting screws are recommended.
•
Attach the brass drain pan fitting and drain hose supplied to the drain exit on the bottom or lower
side panel of the air conditioner.
•
The external drain hose must not be elevated above the exit port. Improper mounting will impede
the flow of condensate and may cause internal malfunctions.
If the air conditioner is mounted to the cabinet door you must be sure that the
door hinges will support the additional weight of the air conditioner. Also be
certain that when the door is opened fully, the cabinet does not become
unbalanced. The actual weight of the unit can be found on page 9.
Mounting: Narrow-Mini
1. See Page 8 for proper Mounting Template and Assembly Bracket (M/TAB) orientation. Place
M/TAB against the outside of the cabinet to locate cutouts and mounting holes. Make sure the
cutouts don’t interfere with components inside your cabinet.
2. Make the necessary cutouts and mounting holes in the cabinet. NOTE: Cutouts must not be less
than M/TAB openings.
3. Mount M/TAB to the outside of the cabinet using at least 6 sets of the mounting hardware supplied
by Kooltronic (eight

-
20 press studs, nuts and washers). Preferred position: top, bottom and near
the center on each side. NOTE: Make sure the press studs are unserted with heads toward you.
Tighten nuts securely.
4. To facilitate easy mounting, the four screws located on each side of the unit (side with the power
cord) should be backed out enough to allow the M/TAB slot to fit.
5. Route the power cord through the 2" dia. hole. Line up the four screws on each side of the unit with
the slots on the M/TAB. Slide the unit inside the M/TAB.
6. Make sure there is a tight fit between the unit and M/TAB, before tightening the (8) 10-32
self-tapping screws. NOTE: Do not overtighten these screws.
7. Attach the drain hose supplied to the drain exit in the bottom or the lower side panel. This hose
must not be elevated above the exit port. Improper mounting will impede the flow of condensate
and may cause internal malfunctions.
