SECTION I - INSTALLATION CHECK POINTS
Improper
installation
may
cause
irregularity
in
performance. The following points should be checked
and corrected as necessary.
1.
LOCATION
If floor is uneven, level cabinet. For proper ventilation a
minimum of four (4) inches must be allowed on both
sides of cabinet of all Models. The same clearance must
also be provided in the cabinet rear on Models with
condenser or louvers in this area. The location must be
free
from
periodic
freezing
conditions
however
temporary.
2.
PLUMBING
The cooler drain should be connected to an open or
vented drain. Coolers supplied with a tailpiece require a
slip joint connection. Others require piping to the 1-1/4"
F. P. T. connection. NOTE - there is no internal trap in
cooler.
The 3/8" inlet water connection should be
connected to the building supply line. All water piping
should be clean and rust resistant to prevent fouling of
drinking water. Apply pipe compound sparingly. Avoid
the use of lead or oil based compounds. End of pipe
runs should be avoided. A hand shut-off valve and
union should be installed in supply line near cooler to aid
in later cooler servicing without having to close main
supply valve: Follow local plumbing codes.
Installation of a water strainer between cooler
and shut-off valve is recommended in all cases.
If water pressures exceed 80 lbs. a water
regulator with a setting of 40 lbs. is required in water
supply ahead of cooler.
In areas where "water hammer" is present in the
water supply, install a water regulator and an approved
sealed air chamber to prevent vibration or water line
rupture.
The "Remote" connection can be used as an
auxiliary cold water supply or for draining and flushing
the water system.
3.
REFRIGERATION
The refrigeration system is completely installed, properly
charged with refrigerant, and tested at the factory.
Liquid and suction service shut-off valves, when
provided, are open in shipment.
4.
ELECTRICAL
The water cooler is a factory-wired unit. It must connect
to the type of electrical current and voltage stamped on
the model plate.
