Operation
Note: Remote alarm contact and buzzer alarm work together. When the refrigerator is in alarm mode, the remote alarm contact can be disconnected by pushing the buzzer button. If the unit is in the alarm mode due to loss of power, the remote alarm contact remains in the alarm mode. This condition persists until the power is resumed. All alarms will automatically stop once the problem is corrected. If the alarm condition is not corrected within 30 minutes, the buzzer alarm and remote alarm contact are activated again. In the case of losing power, a fully charged battery can support the alarm system for 72 hours. For a newly started refrigerator or a refrigerator that has been unplugged for a long time, you should make sure the battery is fully charged. This charging process can take up to two days. When the battery discharges, the remote alarm contact continues to function.
Procedure to Test the Alarm System
Push the “Alarm Test” button once. The alarm buzzer sounds three consecutive times in 1 Hz frequency. At the same time, the alarm light also flashes three consecutive times and the remote alarm contact opens and closes for three times. The alarm system functions properly.
This blood bank refrigerator should be cared for by dedicated personnel. The operational status of the unit should be inspected and recorded daily. If the temperature runs toward
