Plumbing
No plumbing required. Condensate from the cooling coil is automatically evaporated through a condensate pan located in the side condensing unit compartment.
For your convenience, a factory installed floor drain is located in the back right corner of the cabinet. This can be plumbed to an external floor drain. The floor drain can be plumbed from the cabinet right side using a 3⁄4” NPT connection or out the bottom using a 1” NPS connection. Both ports of the drain come capped from the factory.
Electrical
The cabinet must be connected to a separately fused power source (see electrical specification plate) and grounded in accordance with National and Local Electrical Codes. Caution: Do not attempt to operate the equipment on any other power source than that listed on the Electrical Specification plate.
Uncrating and Inspection
Remove all crating material before operating. Carefully inspect cabinet for hidden damage. If damage is discovered, file your claim immediately with the transportation company. Perlick is
not responsible for damage in transit.
Installing Casters or Legs (Optional)
Attach four casters or legs to the cabinet bottom; mount rigid casters at the rear and swivel casters on the front. Use the supplied 1/4”- 20 x 3/4” hex head
WARNING!
To avoid compressor damage, after returning cabinet to an upright position, let unit stand for 24 hours before plugging it in.
Placing the Cabinet
Push the cabinet into place using rollers when necessary. Important: Proper air flow around the condensing unit is necessary for efficient operation. Never obstruct the air flow in and out of the condensing unit.
For sanitation purposes, it may be necessary to seal the base of the cabinet to the floor. This can be accomplished by laying a bead of silicone sealant between the base of the cabinet and the floor as shown by the figure at below.

Leveling the Cabinet
When the cabinet is in place, check installation with carpenter’s level. When level front to back and left to right, accumulated water will drain out of cabinet evaporator drain.
