Setting the temperature
WINE C18IN
The circuit breaker must be at least 16 Amps.
* The insulation quality and thickness has to be in accordance with the volume of the cellar and the set temperature.
** The cooling performance is dependant from the outside temperature. Therefore, the set temperature of 12°C for the cellar cannot
be maintained if the outside temperature of the cellar is maintained at 35°C.
If the thermal safety functions to often, there is a risk for the condensator and starter to be damaged. In all the cases, it must be
avoided that the outside temperature remains at 35°C.
This high temperature should be limited to the summer period.
1. LAYOUT OF PREMISES
The air-conditioner is installed entirely in the wine cellar: it can be fitted on the floor or on a suitable support which can
bear the weight of the unit.
For a correct opération, the wine cellar reject outside some air arround 20°C, above aspiration temperature. This air si
rejected in indoors well ventilated or outside the house.
This opération is made with isolated’s ducts in the wine cellar.
1.1 HOT AIR OUTLET
- If the
WINEMASTER
hot air outlet is indoors, the room must be
well-ventilated
to ensure that the temperature
does not exceed 35°C. The ideal temperature is arround 20°C. It is preferable to discharge the hot air outside if
possible, via ducts.
- The air intake and outlet ducts must not be connected to each other nor obstructed, to avoid overheating the
unit.
The two openings (intake and outlet) must therefore be at least 200 mm apart. The maximum length of each duct
must not exceed 10 metres. This lengh as to be reduced according to number of bends (1 meter per bend).
The
radius of the bends must be upper than 300 mm. The diamter of the ducts musn’t be reduced.
1.2 THE CELLAR
1.2.1 INSULATION
Insulation of the 4 walls, the door, the ceiling and the floor is essential for the Winemaster to work
properly. Adequate insulation helps to obtain the stability of the temperature and the humidity.
The board on the next page (choice of insulati ) can be used to determine the type and the thickness of
insulation needed according to the internal volume of the cellar and a cellar temperature of 12°C.
Insulation continuity :
Insulating components must be assembled preferably by interlocking panels or glueing the panels
together, to ensure perfect continuity of insulation.
