Mounting
**** Always disconnect the power supply before opening the unit.
The heat load to be dissipated from the enclosure should not exceed the
specific cooling output of the unit at any condition. When selecting a cooling
unit, always allow for a safety margin of at least 15% extra cooling output in
the worst conditions. Air inlets and outlets must be completely free from
obstruction.
Ensure that flows of air leaving and entering the cooling unit, internal and
external, are not obstructed. The cooling unit enclosure air suction hole must
be installed at the highest possible point. When installing the unit on a door
ensure it can take the weight.
Before drilling the enclosure, ensure the fixing elements and couplings will
not interfere with the equipment inside the enclosure itself. Disconnect power
before starting any work inside the enclosure. Following this 1:1 Scale
Drilling Template, drill the holes and make the required cuts on the
enclosure. This template may have been affected by storage conditions, please
check this template by verifying the values of the largest dimensions before
drilling. Fit the sealing strip to the cooling unit on the side connected to
the enclosure and follow the installation diagram.
Mounting Principle
- Do not use within the first 15 minutes after installation!
- Use only the supplied mounting hardware.
- Tighten fasteners to 40-inch lb.
- Ensure the mounting surface does not warp after assembly and reinforce it if necessary.

Electrical Connection
The cooling unit is used where heat needs to be dissipated from electrical
control cabinets or similar enclosures in order to protect heat-sensitive
components. The unit has two completely separate air circuits which ensure
that the clean cabinet air does not come into contact with the ambient air
which may well be dirty or polluted. Control cabinet air conditioners can
dissipate large quantities of heat from sealed enclosures, such as control
cabinets, into the ambient air and at the same time reduce the cabinet
internal temperature to below that of the ambient air.
The control cabinet air conditioner can function without problems in extreme
ambient conditions (e.g. dusty and oily air) with a standard operating
temperature ranging between -4°F and 131°F. The stated cooling capacities are
according to DIN 3168.
Door Switch
The unit can be switched on and off via a door contact switch. When delivered
the door contact terminals are bridged on the female connector. To connect the
door contact switch remove the bridge and connect the door contact switch. The
contact must be closed when the cabinet door is closed.
Controller Programming
The cooling unit is intended to be used as a complementary accessory to larger
industrial equipment. The unit is used where heat needs to be dissipated from
electrical control cabinets or similar enclosures in order to protect heat-
sensitive components. It is not intended for household use. The unit has two
completely separate air circuits which ensure that the clean cabinet air does
not come into contact with the ambient air which may well be dirty or
polluted. Enclosure cooling units can dissipate large quantities of heat from
sealed enclosures such as electrical enclosures into the ambient air and at
the same time reduce the cabinet internal temperature to below that of the
ambient air.
The unit can function without problems in extreme ambient conditions (e.g.
dusty and oily air) with a standard operating temperature ranging between
+10°C and +55°C. Units can be ordered with an additional electrical cabinet
heater. For the cooling capacities and environmental ratings please refer to
the type plate data.
The display shows the temperature in the range of -50°C to +150°C (-58°F to +302°F). The temperature is displayed with a resolution of tenths between -19.9°C and +99.9°C (-3.8°F to +211.8°F). During programming, it shows the codes and values of the parameters. The display also shows icons according to occurring events.

Taking Into Operation
Attention!
The unit can be damaged by a lack of lubricant. To ensure that the compressor
is adequately lubricated, the oil, which has been displaced during transport,
must be allowed to flow back into it. The unit must therefore be allowed to
stand for at least 30 minutes before being connected to the mains and taken
into operation. Upon connection, the internal fan will start working. If the
temperature inside the enclosure is higher than the set value of the
controller, both the compressor and external air fan start working. Once the
air inside the enclosure reaches the set temperature, the compressor and
external fan will stop.
The unit is pre-set at 95°F, which is suitable for most electronic devices.
