Chromatography

Refrigerators

The chromatography refrigerator is equipped with a safety

circuit. In the event the safety circuit is tripped (the safety

sensor senses a flammable gas), the power to the internal

outlet will be discontinued and the user will need to manually

reset the safety circuit assembly using the reset switch at the

right side of header panel before power is restored. To do

this, toggle the switch located on the top right side of the

header panel beside the remote alarm contacts. There will be

a power delay to the outlet for approximately 4 minutes where

the red LED will be illuminated.

When power is available at the outlet, the red LED will turn off

and the green LED will illuminate.

If the circuit trips from RED back to GREEN repeatedly or

never turns GREEN, please contact Customer Service.

Flammable materials should not be stored in the refrigerator.

Lights

The GFCI outlet assembly is located inside the unit back in the

center.

The outlet assembly has two LEDs:

• RED (on the top) - When the red LED is ON, it indicates

there is no power to the AC outlet inside the unit.

• GREEN (on the bottom) - When the green LED is ON, it

indicates there is power to the AC outlet inside the unit.

Switches

The Chromatography refrigerators has a reset switch on the

right side of the header panel, above remote alarm contacts.

• Chromatography Manual Reset: This is used to manually

reset the safety circuit in the AC receptacle assembly

after the LED turns RED from GREEN due to a safety trip

event which disengages power to outlet inside the

refrigerator. It is present on the right side top front corner

next to the remote alarm contacts.

Wiring

The wiring diagram for the units is shown in Figure 2.

CAUTION: Connect the equipment to the

correct power source. Incorrect voltage can

result in severe damage to the equipment.

CAUTION: For personal safety and trouble-free

operation, this unit must be properly grounded

while in use. Failure to ground the equipment

may cause personal injury or damage to the

equipment. Always conform to the National

Electrical Code and local codes. Do not connect

the unit to overloaded power lines.

General Purpose and Chromatography Refrigerators Installation | 11

CAUTION: Always connect the unit to a

dedicated (separate) circuit. Each unit is

equipped with a service cord and plug designed

to connect it to a power outlet which delivers the

correct voltage. Supply voltage must be within

±10% of the unit rated voltage. If cord becomes

damaged, replace with a properly rated power

supply cord. Power Cord Specifications: 3-G 12

AWG, NEMA 5-15 P, 15A / 125V.

CAUTION: Never cut the grounding prong from

the service cord plug. If the prong is removed, the

warranty is invalidated.

CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord in case of

emergency.

Shelves

All the units come standard with wire shelves. Each unit has

different number of shelves. Refer to Ta bl e 2 for more

information.

Maximum shelf capacity is 45 kg (100 lbs) for full shelves and

22.5 kg (50 lbs) for half shelves.

For safety in shipping, the shelves are packaged and secured

inside the cabinet. Insert the shelf support hangers (included

with the manual inside the unit) into the built-in shelf supports

(located on the inside walls of the cabinet interior) at the

desired locations.

Installation Instructions

1. Determine proper location for shelves clips, the reference

number on the pilaster can serve as a guide to ensure all

clips are properly located.

2. Insert top of the clip into the desired hole of the pilaster

the retaining tab should be facing upwards.

3. Rotate the clip downwards and insert the bottom tab into

the appropriate hole, the clip may be squeezes slightly

during installation.

4. Install shelves onto clips with the product retention bar

facing upwards, be careful not to is lodge clips during

shelve installation.

5. Prior to loading the shelf, ensure that the shelf is resting

on each of 4 clips and the clips are installed.

Door Operation

The swinging door units are designed to stay open if opened

90 degrees or more. The door spring tension cannot be

adjusted.

The Sliding doors can be opened completely towards left or

right. If the self-closing door does not work properly, make

sure the unit is leveled properly

Door Seal

Remote Alarm

All units have factory-installed remote alarm contacts that can

be used for remote alarm systems. The maximum distance

between a unit and a remote alarm depends on the wire

gauge used. Refer to Tab le 4 below:

The Remote alarm contacts are located on the right side of

the header panel. The three terminals are: COMMON, OPEN

ON FAIL (Normally Closed) and CLOSE ON FAIL (Normally

Open).

WARNING: Do not to move this unit while

loaded

CAUTION: Improper shelf clip installation may

cause shelf and/or product damage to the unit.

CAUTION: Do not overload the shelves, the unit

is designed to utilize all shelves that are supplied

in an equally spaced manner.

CAUTION: Door seal integrity is critical for unit

performance. A loose fitting gasket allows moist

air to be drawn into the cabinet, resulting in

quicker frost buildup on the cabinet walls, longer

running time, poor temperature maintenance and

increased operation cost.

14 | Installation General Purpose and Chromatography Refrigerators

To install the remote alarm, make the following connections:

1. Connect the COMMON terminal on the cabinet switch to

the COMMON wire on the alarm.

2. To get an alarm when the switch contacts open, connect

the OPEN ON FAIL terminal on the cabinet to the OPEN

ON FAIL wire on the alarm.

3. To get an alarm when the switch contacts close, connect

the CLOSE ON FAIL terminal on the cabinet to the

CLOSE ON FAIL wire on the alarm. The COMMON and

CLOSE ON FAIL wires must be tied together in this

application

4. Plug the alarm system service cord into an electrical

outlet.

5. The contacts will trip in the event of high temperature

alarm or low temperature alarm.

Final Checks

Before start up, be sure to complete the following steps:

1. Make sure that the unit is free of all wood or cardboard

shipping materials, both inside and outside.

2. Check the positions of the shelves. If you want to adjust

the positions.

3. Verify that the unit is connected to a dedicated circuit.

Startup

Initial Startup

To start up the unit, complete the following steps:

1. Connect the AC main power cord. The evaporator fans

start when the power cord is plugged in.

2. Insert the silver colored key in the switch and turn to the

Power On position.

3. Allow the unit to reach operating temperature before

loading it with any product. To stabilize the temperature

profile, a 24-hour waiting period is recommended.

4. If you desire to enable the power failure alarm, turn the

three position key switch one turn further clockwise to

the All Alarm On position.

5. If you have a remote alarm, hook it up at this point (refer

to section Remote Alarm).

6. If desired, lock the cabinet door using the silver colored

key. Place duplicate key copies in a safe place.

All controls should now be fully operational, the alarm active (if

enabled), and all visual indicators active.

Chromatography

Refrigerators

1. Connect the AC main power cord.

2. Connect the GFCI AC power cord.

3. Make sure the reset switch is in ON position.

4. Insert the silver colored key in the switch and turn to the

Power On position. The display will show the actual

cabinet temperature.

Note: The Chromatography refrigerator is shipped with the

manual reset switch at the top right side front of the header

panel above the remote alarm contacts (refer to section

Switches) as ON. The Manual reset switch should always be

in ON position.

5. The red LED on the chromatography safety circuit turns

ON.

6. After a power delay of 4 minutes the red LED on the

chromatography safety circuit turns Off and the green

LED on the chromatography safety circuit turns ON.

Note: During initial power-up, the GFCI outlet will not be

powered until after an approximate 4 minute delay.

Operating equipment inside the refrigerator may shift the

temperature profile in the unit. Monitor the refrigerator as

needed for any such shift.

Product Loading and

Unloading Guidelines

When loading your unit, take care to observe the following

guidelines:

• Distribute the load as evenly as possible. Temperature

uniformity depends on air circulation, which could be

impeded if the internal storage components are overfilled,

particularly at the top of the cabinet.

•For critical applications, be sure that the alarm systems

are working and active before you load any product.

• Ensure clearance between the top of the cargo and the

bottom of the internal storage components. Lack of

clearance may affect unit performance or impede

operation of the storage component.
