SPACES AROUND THE CABINET

At least 15" clear space is required above the unit for service.

At least 6" clear space is required on both sides of the cabinet.

At least 6" clear space is required on the rear of the cabinet for drain hookup and maintenance.

Enough space should be provided in front of the cabinet to fully open the door. The same space should be provided on the back of the cabinet for units with pass-thru doors.

STARTING & TESTING THE UNIT

1.To charge the unit, use the "HARD" cycle and the "MANUAL" mode. Set for two hours of operation to allow enough time to fully charge the unit.

IMPORTANT: Immediately after starting the unit, check that the fans inside the cabinet are rotating CLOCKWISE, and that the fans in the condensing unit are rotating in accordance with the arrows on the blades. Improper rotation will damage the unit and void the warranty.

2.Start the unit per 1. above and in accordance with the following operating instructions, then perform at least one complete blast chilling or shock freezing cycle. When done, instruct the client on the correct use of the unit.

3.By the end of the cycle the unit should have pulled down to 0o F (AP24BCF300-3, AP40BCF450-3) or 10 o F (AP24BC250-3, AP40BC350-3). It should have been cycling between 0o F and 10o F (AP24BCF300-3, AP40BCF450-3) or between 10o F and 20o F (AP24BC250-3, AP40BC350-3) and the sight glass must be clear.

4.As soon as possible after the unit has been started, check the power consumption, the standard pressure measurements and the operation of all the controls.

NOTE: The refrigerating system works on pressure. An electro valve mounted on the top of the cabinet is controlled by the electronic controller. When the temperature of the air in the cabinet falls to the programmed low temp setting, the electro valve will close (0 VAC) and the unit will pump down. When the temperature of the air in the cabinet rises to the programmed high temp setting, the electro valve will open and refrigeration will start.
