leave behind the mineral deposits that town water does, this will keep the water trough
cleaner and reduce maintenance.
•
Secondly, if the automatic water level controls were to fail or if there was a water leak, the
worst spillage would be 25 litres instead of a potential flood.
DRAIN:
Because we are controlling humidity levels inside the cabinet, there may be water coming out of
the drain located inside the cabinet. There is also a drain valve and an overflow pipe in case of a
malfunction.
Therefore it is essential that the location for the cabinet has a floor drain for the water to flow into.
Water from the cabinet will exit through a 19mm drain pipe on the left hand side of the cabinet, you
will need to connect this drain pipe to the floor drain (see note below).
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE CABINET DRAIN PIPE IS CONNECTED TO A
SUITABLE WASTE OUTLET (DRAIN) AT ALL TIMES. MAKE SURE THAT THERE
ARE NO RESTRICTIONS IN THE DRAIN PIPE, IT WILL NEED TO COPE WITH AN
OVERFLOW OF 3 LITRES PER MINUTE IN THE CASE OF A FAULT.
WE ADVISE THAT THE WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN PIPES SHOULD BE
FLEXIBLE. THIS WILL ALLOW THE CABINET TO BE MOVED AWAY FROM THE
WALL FOR ACCESS TO THE REAR OF THE CABINET DURING SERVICE.
ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION:
ASSEMBLY:
SHELVES: Place the shelves at the required level. The shelf runners are fixed at 100mm centres.
PERSPEX HOLDER: This holder is provided so that the operating manual can be kept with the
equipment. Use the 2 x cross-head screws mounted on the left side of the cabinet above the cable
port to fix the Perspex holder to the cabinet. See photo 2.
INSTALLATION:
•
Locate the cabinet in a well ventilated area on a firm level surface as described earlier. The
cabinet is fitted with castor wheels so that it can easily be moved during installation.
•
Leave sufficient room at the rear and sides for air flow around the cabinet as previously
described (30cm each side 10cm at the rear).
•
Leave enough room in front of the door to allow it to open fully when loading the cabinet.
•
Connect the drain pipe at the left side of the cabinet (see photo 1 & 2 for location), to a
suitable floor drain with flexible hose (drain pipe is 19mm diameter).
•
Connect the water supply to the cabinet, either mains water or gravity fed, to the snap on
connector located at the right side of the cabinet (photo 1).
•
Note: Gravity fed water tank should be at least 1 metre above the ground, to provide a
suitable head for the water to flow properly.
•
Once the cabinet is in position with all of the services connected, use the lock-down levers
on the castor wheels to prevent the cabinet from moving.
