FOR THE SERVICE TECH – R290

Refrigeration service should only be attempted by a trained trade professional certified to work on R290 systems.

Here are some critical service items.

This list does not qualify anyone to service the unit. It is a reminder and checklist for the service tech. Keep these in mind for R290 service:

• Wire nuts are NOT to be used when changing an electrical part.
• The switches in this product are sealed, only exact replacements may be used.
• The process tubes are to be used for service access.
• Cut out (with tubing cutter) refrigeration components that are to be replaced. Do NOT un-braze.
• Because R290 can be vented into the air during service, the venting MUST be in an area free from flame or spark. It must be near an opened window or door.
• A sign noting service of a system containing propane must be attached to the unit during refrigeration service.
• A combustible gas leak detector must be used to inform anyone in the area when propane is present in the air.

Other Information:

Evacuation: It is critical that a refrigeration system be leak free and internally dry. A thorough evacuation with a good vacuum pump with a micron gauge attached is the only way to ensure that the system is dry and ready for a charge of refrigerant

Charging : The system is critically charged and the proper type and amount MUST be weighed in.

Overcharge symptoms : Unit will cool properly but the suction line temperature will be unusually cold. Compressor run time will be longer than normal.

Undercharge symptoms : Long run time, poor cooling and a hot compressor dome are the main symptoms of an undercharge.

POWER/FREEZE FAILURE

NOTE: DO NOT OPEN THE FREEZER DOOR UNNECESSARILY IF POWER TO THE FREEZER IS OFF FOR SEVERAL HOURS. IF A POWER FAILURE OCCURS, FROZEN FOODS WILL STAY FROZEN FOR AT LEAST 2 HOURS IF THE FREEZER ISEPTCLOSED. IF THE POWER FAILURE CONTINUES, PACK SEVEN OR EIGHT POUNDS OF DRY ICE INTO THE FREEZER EVERY 24 HOURS. COVER THE PRODUCT WITH A CARDBOARD SHEET OR ONE INCH POLYURETHANE SHEET AND CLOSE THE LIDS. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES AND USE CAUTION WHEN HANDLING DRY ICE.

IF THE FREEZER HAS STOPPED OPERATING, SEE “FREEZER DOES NOT RUN” IN THE SERVICE CHECKLIST SECTION OFTHIS MANUAL. IF YOU CANNOT SOLVE T E PROBLEM, CALL AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT ALLOW INEXPERIENCED PEOPLE TO REPAIR OR MODIFY THE ELECTRICAL WIRING AND/OR REFRIGERATION COMPONENTS.

BEFORE CALLING SERVICE, REVIEW THIS LIST. IT MAY SAVE YOU BOTH TIME AND COSTS. THIS LIST INCLUDES COMMON OCCURRENCES THAT ARE NOT THE RESULT OF DEFECTIVE WORKMANSHIP OR MATERIALS IN THIS APPLIANCE.

plugged into a circuit that has ground fault interrupt – if you are unsure about the outlet, have it checked by a certified technician.Temperature control is in the OFF position – see “Setting the Temperature Control Section”.Freezer may not be plugged in, or the plug may be loose – be sure the plug is tightly pushed into electric outlet.House fuse has blown, or the circuit breaker has tripped – check the circuit breaker and reset if needed, or replace fuse with a 15 amp time delay fuse.In case of power outage – call the local electric company.
Temperature inside the freezer is too low| Room or outside weather is hot – it’s normal for the freezer to work harder under those conditions.Freezer was recently disconnected for a period of time – the freezer requires 4 hours to cool down completely.Large amounts of warm or hot product have been stored recently – warm product will cause the freezer to run more until the desired temperature is reached.Door is kept open too long or too frequently – warm air enters the freezer every time the door is opened, try to open the door less often.Freezer door may be slightly open.Temperature control is set too cold – turn the control knob to a warmer setting and allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize.
Temperature inside the freezer is too high| Temperature control is set too low – turn the control to a warmer setting and allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize
Temperature of external freez- er surface is warm| Temperature control is set too high – turn the control to a colder setting and allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize. Door is kept open too long or is opened too frequently, which allows warm air to enter the freezer every time it is opened. – try to open the door less often.The door may be slightly opened.The freezer has recently been disconnected for a period of time – allow 4 hours to cool down completely.
Noise level is higher whenever the freezer is on| The exterior freezer walls can be as much as 30°F warmer than the room temperature. This is normal while the compressor works to transfer heat from inside the freezer cabinet.
Noise level is higher when the compressor comes on| The fan motor in the compressor compartment is damaged or has a loose connection.Modern freezers have increased storage capacity and more even temperatures, so they require a high efficiency compressor. So when the surrounding noise level is low, you may hear the compressor running while it cools the interior.
Popping or cracking sound when the compressor comes on| Freezer operates at higher pressure during the start of the ON cycle – this is normal, the sound will level off or disappear as the freezer continues to run.
Bubbling or gurgling sound, like water boiling| Metal parts undergo expansion and contraction, similar to hot water pipes – this is normal, the sound will level or disappear as the freezer continues to run.
Vibrating or rattling noise| Refrigerant (used to cool freezers) is circulating throughout the system – this is normal.
Moisture forms on the inside freezer walls| Freezer is not level, it may rock on the floor when it is moved slightly – level the unit.Floor is uneven or weak, freezer rocks on the floor when it is moved slightly – be sure the floor can adequately support the freezer. If so, level the freezer by placing either wood or metal shims under part of the freezer.Weather is hot, or humidity level is high, this increases the internal rate of frost build-up – this is normal.Door is slightly open, kept open too long, or is being opened too frequently – this causes the cold air from inside the freezer to meet the warm moist air from outside.
Odor inside the freezer| Interior needs to be cleaned – clean the interior according to the instructions in this manual. Products with strong odors are inside the freezer – cover the product tightly.
