Traulsen R & A Series owner manual III. Installation

III. INSTALLATION (continued)

III.g - INSTALLING THE CONDENSATE EVAP (cont’d): NOTE: Some models, such as single section dual- temperature refrigerator/freezers, are supplied with a bottom-mounted electric condensate evaporator. This is shipped in a cardboard carton secured to the cabinet interior, and must be PROPERLY installed prior to use (see instructions supplied with the condensate evaporator).

After the cabinet has been uncrated and the legs/ casters attached, you must install the bottom-mounted electric condensate evaporator. Locate the four (4) holes on the exterior bottom towards the rear of the cabinet. Then, using the four (4) plastic push pins provided, at- tach the mounting rails to the cabinet bottom (the end flange is to be up and be facing towards the cabinet rear). Next, place the heater into the heater bracket (note the enclosed springs are only to be used when the heater is placed on the floor). Slide heater and bracket into the mounting rails. Plug the supplied cord into both the heater on one end, and the electrical outlet provided on the cabinet exterior bottom towards the front (see figure 6). Screw the “U-Trap”on to the drain line located on the rear of the cabinet and then screw the drain extension into the “U-Trap.”

Fig. 6

NOTE: The use of the “U-TRAP”supplied is required. Failure to use this component may allow cold air to migrate down the drain line, resulting in condensation on the rear of the cabinet.

A remote model is normally supplied configured for condensate to be run to a floor drain unless purchased with a condensate evaporator. The installer is responsible for making the required extension to the floor drain in accordance with good practice and local regulations.

III.h - REMOTE INSTALLATION:

Remote models are supplied without compressors, solenoid valves, etc. The correct voltage, amp listing and refrigerant are listed on the units serial tag. It is the responsibility of the installer to specify and supply the correct size compressor(s) based upon this information and on-site requirements. Refrigerant line installation

III.h - REMOTE INSTALLATION (cont’d):

must be done in accordance with good practice and local regulations. See section “III. g” for information concerning condensate removal for remote models.

III.i - CORD & PLUG:

Most self-contained models are supplied with a cord & plug attached. It is shipped coiled at the top of the cabinet, secured by a nylon strip. For your safety and protection, all units supplied with a cord and plug include a special three-prong grounding plug on the service cord. Select only a dedicated electrical outlet with grounding plug for power source. NOTE: Do not under any circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding prong from the plug, or use an extension cord.

III.j - POWER SUPPLY:

The supply voltage should be checked prior to connection to be certain that proper voltage for the cabinet wiring is available (refer to the serial tag to determine correct unit voltage). Make connections in accordance with local electrical codes. Use qualified electricians.

Use of a separate, dedicated circuit is required. Size wiring to handle indicated load and provide necessary overcurrent protector in circuit (see amperage requirements on the unit’s serial tag).

III.k - WIRING DIAGRAM:

Refer to the wiring diagram for any service work performed on the unit. Should you require one, please contact Traulsen Service at (800) 825-8220, and provide the model and serial number of the unit involved.

III.l - CLEARANCE:

In order to assure optimum performance, the condensing unit of your Traulsen unit MUST have an adequate supply of air for cooling purposes. Therefore, the operating location must either have a minimum of 12” clearance overhead of the condensing unit or allow for unrestricted air flow at the back of the unit. Clearance of at least 12” above is required in order to perform certain maintenance tasks.
