Hydrocarbon Guidelines

Propane (R290) is highly approved for use as a refrigerant in commercial, self-contained units in the US under limited use conditions. It can only be used in new equipment. Backfitting or modifications of old equipment are not allowed. It must be charged in a strictly limited volume of up to 150 grams (5.3 oz) per refrigeration circuit. Even though this is a small amount, it still presents a fire or explosion hazard if it leaks out of parts that hold refrigerant. When it comes in contact with air, a flammable propane-air mixture can be created and easily ignited by electrical sparks, open flames or hot surfaces. The risk is higher in small, confined, poorly ventilated spaces. Propane will settle at lower zones because it is heavier than air. To reduce these risks, observe the following precautions
· Avoid installation of unit in areas with open flames or in general vicinity of open flames or high surface temperatures.
· Avoid unit installation in small, confined spaces. Ensure ample ventilation at all times. Keep all exhaust vents free of any blockage or obstruction.
· Do not rely on smell to detect potential leaks of propane refrigerant. Propane refrigerant is a high purity propane gas and does not contain odourants or stenching agents. These additives are typically used in fuelgrade propane and natural gas in order to give them a distinctive smell which makes it easier to detect leaks.
· General service and repairs must be performed in well-ventilated areas.
· General service and repairs must be performed only by professionals authorized by Everest Refrigeration.
· Component shall be replaced with Everest-issued, like components to minimize the risk of possible ignition resulting from incompatible parts or improper repairs.
· Do not modify, re-appropriate, or remove any functional part(s) from the unit.
· Handle the unit with care to avoid any damage.
· Practice safety guidelines when transporting the unit. Consult with your local Department of Transportation for requirements in moving flammable gasses.

2. Installation Instructions
This section applies to all Everest products. Correct installation ensures proper performance and longevity of your appliance. Professional installation by a trained refrigeration technician and electrician is recommended. Warranty is void if the following guidelines are not met.

1. Inspect for any freight damage upon delivery of the unit. If damage is detected, immediately report it to an Everest representative. Everest is not responsible for damage that occurs during shipment.
2. Keep the unit upright at all times. The compressor contains oil, refrigerant, lubricants, and various chemicals. When tilted, these fluids may shift and travel to sections where they don’t naturally occur. This will lead to system contamination and compressor failure.
3. Some units require caster installation for proper performance. Visit our website at www. everestref.com and enter your product’s model number in the search field to determine its caster requirements.
4. Do not place your hands under the unit when moving it to avoid injury from sharp edges, protruding parts or weight impact.
5. Select a location with good air ventilation. Poor ventilation rapidly increases ambient temperature. High ambient temperatures exceeding 86°F (30°C) promote excessive compressor activity in order to maintain the desired cabinet temperature. This will result in decreased performance, advanced component failure, and the risk of fire.
6. Select a location away from heat-generating equipment such as stoves, ovens, etc. Heat sources rapidly increase the temperature of the immediate vicinity. High temperatures exceeding 86°F (30°C) promote excessive compressor activity in order to maintain the desired cabinet temperature. This will result in decreased performance, advanced component failure, and the risk of fire.
7. A distance of 6″ is required for back side and left side clearance. This ensures proper ventilation and prevents overheating which can lead to advanced component failure and the risk of fire.

8. Select a location with a hard, leveled surface. Use a leveling tool on the unit to ensure proper alignment. Proper door function and condensate removal is dependent on accurate balance. Install the front leg stabilizers for units that come standard with it to ensure proper door / drawer functions and unit stability.
9. Select a location close to an electrical wall outlet to ensure direct connection without the use of extension cords.
10. Select a location away from severe moisture conditions. This may compromise the unit’s electrical components and lead to electrical shocks or the risk of fire.
11. Select a location that will not expose the unit to extremely dusty conditions. Environments with high dust and debris content will significantly hasten condenser coil and condenser coil air filter blockage and will result in decreased performance, advanced component failure, and the risk of fire.
12. Do not build an enclosure or cabinet around the unit. This will restrict air ventilation resulting in elevated compressor activity, decreased performance, advanced component failure, and the risk of fire.
13. The unit is not intended for use in food trucks. Limited space, lack of ventilation, and ambient temperatures exceeding 86°F (30°C) typical to this setting will result in elevated compressor activity, decreased performance, advanced component failure, and the risk of fire.
14. The unit is intended for indoor use only. Outdoor use will cause a decrease in performance, advanced component failure, and the risk of fire.

Installation Instructions

Shelf Installation

1. Some models come standard with shelves, shelf clips and notched pilasters. Each shelf requires four clips. Attach the shelf clips onto the pilasters by inserting its top hook into a pilaster notch followed by the bottom hook. Do not use pliers or other crimping tools to modify the shape of the shelf clips. This will result in shelf mounting instability.

2. Place shelves on the shelf clips making sure all corners are mounted securely and evenly with identical distance from the unit’s floor and up. Always lay the back of each shelf down on the rear clips before the front.
3. When removing a shelf, unmount the shelf from the shelf clips. To detach the shelf clip from the pilaster, tilt up the shelf clip until the bottom hook clears, followed by the top hook.

4. Electrical Safety
This section applies to all Everest products. Basic safety precautions must be observed when using electrical appliances in addition to the following. Warranty is void if these guidelines are not met.

Everest units come as 115 volts, 60 hertz, single phase.
Everest units in this family are equipped with a NEMA 5-15P. A 15 amp breaker must be used for units that come with a NEMA 5-15P plug
115/60/1 NEMA 5-15R
The ground prong must not be removed to reduce the risk of electric shock and related hazards. If the grounding pin is missing, the cord must be removed from use. If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it must be replaced with the properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. Only a qualified electrician may install the correct power source.
To guarantee electrical safety, the wall outlet and circuit must be checked by a qualified electrician to make sure it is properly grounded.
Remove debris from the power plug prongs with a soft cloth or brush before connecting it to an outlet.

Do not use extension cords, adapter plugs or other third party electrical connections. Everest is not responsible for issues resulting from improper electrical connections, electrical power failures and voltage fluctuations.
Everest does not recommend the use of generators in conjunction with the unit due to voltage fluctuations that may compromise electrical components.
Turn off the unit using the power button before unplugging. Wait at least 5 minutes before replugging to prevent damage to the compressor.
Do not unplug the unit by tugging on the power cord. Grip the plug and pull it securely out of the outlet.
Prevent damage to the power cord by providing sufficient clearance around and under the unit. Do not use a power cord that shows cracks or exposed wires. Power cords that have been severely worn or damaged must be replaced with original manufacturer parts and only by an authorized technician.

Assign the unit to a dedicated, undamaged electrical circuit with a voltage rating that matches the data plate. Check the incoming voltage with a multi- meter. This avoids the overloading and overheating of circuit wires which may lead to a fire.

5. Operation
Use your Everest product according to its intended functions. Warranty is void if the following guidelines are not met.

Starting your Everest Product

After plugging in the unit, the current temperature

and compressor symbol

will appear on the

digital temperature control’s LED display.

will flash at short intervals for 1 minute after

which the compressor(s) and condenser fan motor(s)

will initiate. At the beginning of every compressor cycle, the condenser fan motor is automated to rotate in reverse for 30 seconds in order to blow dust off the condenser coil.

The default temperature setting is 35.0°F (2.0°C) for refrigerators and -4.0°F (-20.0°C) for freezers. The factory recommended temperature range is between 33.0°F (1.0°C) to 40.0°F (4.0°C) for refrigerators and -5.0°F (-21.0°C) to 0°F (-18.0°C) for freezers. Setting the temperature outside of the recommended range will cause performance issues and in some cases may result in component failure that is outside of warranty coverage.
The compressor, condenser and evaporator fan motors run while the unit is on refrigeration cycle.

The evaporator fan motor(s) will initiate once the evaporator coil reaches a specific temperature relative to the digital temperature control setting

and for as long as the door is closed. A fan

symbol

will appear on the LED display to

indicate that the evaporator fan is running.

Allow the unit to operate for 24 to 72 hours before storing contents in the cabinet. This lets the cabinet temperature fully stabilize. Use this time to verify proper installation and operation.

The interior light and evaporator fan motor is controlled by a door switch for solid door models and a rocker switch for glass door models.

The compressor, condenser and evaporator fan motors stop running while the unit is on defrost cycle.
The unit is preset to defrost every 5-6 hours with a duration of 45 minutes or less depending on the evaporator coil temperature. Changing the preset outside of the default range will result in cooling issues and advanced component failure.
The digital temperature control is intended to read and display the cabinet’s air temperature, not actual food product temperature. The displayed temperature may fluctuate due to frequent or prolonged door operation. The most conclusive method to determine a unit’s cooling performance is to measure the food product’s temperature using a digital food thermometer.

7. Troubleshooting Guide
In most cases, your Everest product may be exhibiting behavior that is typical of standard operation. Observe the following when troubleshooting symptoms.

cht’ orCHt’ appears on the LED alternating with the current temperature and accompanied by an audible alarm.
The condenser coil may be clogged with dust, grime or debris. Clean it following the instructions in Chapter 6.

The compressor operates continuously or for prolonged periods.
The condenser coil or condenser coil air filter may be clogged with dust, grime or debris. Clean them following the instructions in Chapter 6.

The room’s ambient temperature may be higher than 86°F (30°C). Provide ample ventilation or additional cooling to the room or relocate the unit to a larger space with lower ambient temperature.

The door, drawer or gasket may not be sealing properly. Check product placement in the cabinet as it may prevent the door and drawers from fully closing. If the gasket is loose, reattach.

The unit may be installed in close proximity to heat sources such as ovens, stoves, heaters or direct sunlight. Relocate the unit away from these sources.
The unit may be installed without clearance or proper ventilation. Provide additional exhaust vents and observe the clearance allowance specified in Chapter 2.
The compressor, fan motors or entire system fails to start
The ON/OFF switch may be set to OFF. Turn to the ON position and wait for the LED and motors to show signs of operation.

The evaporator coil may be blocked with ice. Defrost it following the instructions in Chapter 5. Normally, evaporator coils will self-maintain with automated defrost cycles. If the evaporator coil ices up frequently, re-assess placement of food items in the cabinet as it could obstruct cold air circulation. Food items must not touch the wall or floors of the cabinet and stay within the boundaries of the shelf to prevent blockage of air flow.
The room’s ambient temperature may be higher than 86°F (30°C). Provide ample ventilation or additional cooling to the room or relocate the unit to a larger space with lower ambient temperature.

The power cord may not be connected. Check for proper connection. In cases of damage to the power cord or plug, immediately mark the unit as out of order until the damaged part is replaced.
The outlet may not be sending power or the power supply breaker may be switched off. Unplug the unit and contact a licensed electrician for inspection and/ or repairs.

The unit may be installed in close proximity to heat sources such as ovens, stoves, heaters or direct sunlight. Relocate the unit away from these sources.

The cabinet temperature is too warm.

Condensation in the interior cabinet.

The condenser coil may be clogged with dust, grime or debris. Clean it following the instructions in Chapter 6.
The door or door gasket may not be sealing properly. Check product placement in the cabinet as it may prevent the door from fully closing. If the gasket is loose, reattach.

The door / drawer or gaskets may not be sealing properly. If the gasket is loose, reattach. Check product placement in the cabinet as it may prevent the door from fully closing.
Hot food items may have been stored in the cabinet. The interaction between hot and cold temperatures will promote condensation.

The temperature may be set too high. Adjust the setting to 35.0°F (2.0°C) for refrigerators or -4.0°F (-20.0°C) for freezers.

Unsealed or open food items with high moisture content may have been stored in the cabinet. Keep these items in air tight containers.

Hot food items may have been placed in the cabinet. Store only room temperature food items.
The room’s ambient temperature may be higher than 86°F (30°C). Provide ample ventilation or additional cooling to the room. Relocate the unit from extremely small spaces without ventilation.
The unit may be installed in close proximity to heat sources such as ovens, stoves, heaters or direct sunlight. Relocate the unit away from these sources.

Mild condensation in warmer ambient temperature conditions may occur due to frequent or prolonged door operation.
Condensation on the unit’s exterior surfaces.
Highly humid environments will contribute to the condensation build up on exterior panels. Providing ample ventilation and air movement to a space will reduce the humidity level.

The unit may be installed without clearance or proper ventilation. Provide additional exhaust vents and observe the clearance allowance specified in Chapter 2.

The door, drawer or gasket may not be sealing properly. Check product placement in the cabinet as it may prevent the door from fully closing. If the gasket is loose, reattach.

Food items are frosting over.

Noise level during unit operation.

The temperature may be set too low. Adjust the setting to 35.0°F (2.0°C) for refrigerators or -4.0°F (-20.0°C) for freezers.

It is normal for commercial grade compressors and components to have a higher decibel output compared to residential counterparts.

The placement of food items in the cabinet may be obstructing circulation of refrigerated air. This creates uneven temperature in the cabinet with pockets of very cold air that may cause items to frost or freeze over. Food items must not touch the wall or floors of the cabinet and stay within the boundaries of the shelf to prevent blockage of air flow.

The unit may not be balanced evenly. Poorly leveled units may cause components or fittings to misalign or disengage during operation. This may produce noise as a direct result of repeated surface friction or impact.
The unit may not be securely mounted to the floor. This may produce noise as a direct result of repeated surface friction or impact.

Some sounds are normal for the refrigeration process. A dripping sound, for example, is the result of refrigerant circulation during the compressor rest period.
