FOSTER PC 97/4 Pan Chill Refrigerator Instruction Manual
IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATIONS
-
The installation of this equipment should be entrusted to technicians approved by the vendor and in compliance with standards and rules in force.
-
Before installing the unit ensure that the circulation and volume of air are sufficient to allow normal cooling of the condenser and compressor.
-
Avoid installing the cabinet near major sources of heat or in direct sunlight.
-
Note that too high ambient operating temperature can reduce performance.
-
When connecting electrically earth continuity must be maintained between the unit and the supply socket.
-
For cabinets supplied with a supply cable note that this is a specific part and should only be replaced with an original part. Being considered as a circuit- breaker, ensure that the plug is easily accessible as a means of electrical isolation.
-
Protection against electrical overload or faults is the responsibility of the installer. Ensure that a circuit breaker or fuses are fitted in the supply circuit (See Name plate).
-
All operations on the electrical or refrigeration circuits, including cleaning operations should only be undertaken with the unit DISCONNECTED (unplugged socket).
-
The air-cooled compressor condenser must be cleaned regularly (every 3 to 6 months).
-
The unit should not be sprayed or splashed with water:
– Do not use a jet wash on the exterior or technical parts of the unit.
– The equipment must not be installed in the open air or exposed to the elements. -
During any intervention it is imperative that the factory systems are respected so as not to compromise safety.
-
The correct operation of this equipment depends on the safety and operating systems functioning as designed in the factory. We cannot be held responsible for poor operation that results from inappropriate modifications.
-
The manufacturer can not be held responsible for usage other than that for which the equipment was designed.

INSTALLATION
3.1 GENERAL REQUIREMENT
The installation, any repairs or alterations to this equipment should be undertaken by qualified specialists according to good practice.
3.2 HANDLING
The unit should be moved with adapted lifting gear.
If the unit has to be transported this should be done on its original pallet.
If moving the appliance without its pallet, it must be carried and not pulled.
The appliance must be stacked in horizontal position so that the arrows
printed on the packaging are pointing upwards (the top of the device)
3.3 UNPACKING AND INSTALATION
3.3.1 UNPACKING
When unpacking, make sure that the unit is permanently in a horizontal
position.
3.3.2 INSTALLATION
Once a location has been chosen ensure that the air around the unit is
sufficient to provide adequate cooling to the condenser and compressor.
Allow a 5 to 10cm clearance between the walls and the cabinet.
Avoid proximity to any heat source.
3.4 KIT ASSEMBLIES
3.4.1 NIGHT COVER KIT
3.4.1 GLAZING KIT
Before any handling, remove first plastic caps placed on the top of the device.
Place the top glass on the whole in order to fix the remaining collars, nylon washers and M4 poêlier screws.
3.4.3 WALL FIXATINGS
Find a place or install the device while ensuring that nothing clutter the layout of it.
Trace on the wall 4 fixing positions taking account of the position of the height of the appliance (distance B between the two fixations of a wall = 50mm). For versions PC 189 and PC 221, there will be 3 brackets, so 6 fixing positions (3rd bracket is in the middle distance equivalent to two others).
On these plots, drill holes in order to introduce dowels attachments adapted to the wall (screws and dowels, recommended M10 are not supplied with the kit) and then screw 2 wall fixings (or 3 versions PC 189 and PC 221).
Then the fixing supports can be assembled on wall fixings
Place the unit on the fixing supports and fix it with the TH M6 screws and L6N washers.
3.4.4 PAN SUPPORT KIT
Put pan support kits on plastic profile to box. (the folds facing downwards and to the sides).
Lay the GN 1/6 GN 1/9 (not supplied) in the correct slots.
It is recommended to dispose the pan support kit on one end of the tank in order to avoid incorrect assembly with standard pan.
3.5 CONNECTIONS (SEE § 1 “Technical characteristics”)
3.5.1 ELECTRICS
The unit is fitted with a supply cable which must not be removed.
EARTH continuity must be maintained (see § Important recommandations).
Provision of a circuit breaker or fuses to protect the supply is the
responsibility of the installer.
PUTTING IN SERVICE
4.1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
There are no particular requirements except to ensure that nothing obstructs the air flow to the condenser and evaporator fans.
4.2 THERMOSTAT CONFIGURATION
AT1-5 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Thank you for having chosen a LAE electronic product. Before installing the instrument, please read these instructions carefully to ensure maximum performance and safety.
INSTALLATION
- Insert the controller through a hole measuring 71×29 mm.
- Make sure that electrical connections comply with the paragraph “wiring diagrams”. To reduce the effects of electromagnetic disturbance, keep the sensor and signal cables well separate from the power wires.
- Fix the controller to the panel by means of the suitable clips, by pressingly gently; if fitted, check that the rubber gasket adheres to the panel perfectly, in order to prevent debris and moisture infiltration to the back of the instrument.
- Place the probe T1 inside the room in a point that truly represents the temperature of the stored product.
- Place the probe T2 where there is the maximum formation of frost.
