	SPECIFICATIONS:

CABINET

Stainless steel construction with joints and seams completely closed and sealed. The cabinet is internally supported, braced and assembled into a single rigid unit. All interior corner bends are rounded to a 1/4” radius for ease of cleaning and conform to NSF codes.

The cabinet is designed with tapered interior air ducts on both the left and right side, as well as the ceiling. Each air duct has a series of strategically placed perforations for proper flow to create an “air curtain.” When the door is open, a curtain of cold air is directed across the cabinet opening to help keep hot air out and cold air in.The air flow

is specifically designed to maintain and prolong the interior cabinet temperature and, thus, help maintain internal food product temperatures for extended periods of time with the door open, assuring safer product storage during service hours.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

The condensing unit is located at the base of the cabinet for a lower center of gravity and added stability during transport. Removable stainless steel louvered ventilation grills provide enhanced air flow. Located at both front and rear of cabinet, these grills provide easy access for service as well as routine cleaning of the compressor. Air circulation fans and finned forced convection coil are contained within the top mounted housing system, providing sufficient capacity to maintain cabinet temperatures with the door open under normal usage. Condensate water is removed automatically by an electric vaporizer.

Specifications subject to change without notice.

III. INSTALLATION

LOCATION:

Select a proper location for your Aladdin Temp-Rite Air Curtain Refrigerator is very important.

ALWAYS:

-Install to assure that unit is level.

-Install to assure that unit is away from extreme heat.

-Install to assure that unit is away from a steamer.

-Install to assure that unit is NOT placed near or under a ventilation duct or hood, (this will disturb the airflow of the air curtain and will hamper the performance of the unit).

-Install to assure that unit is 6” minimum distance from back of unit to wall or obstruction (ie; a wall).

-Install to assure that the door(s) may open a minimum of 90 degrees.

NEVER:

-Install equipment in

an area of standing water

-Install near or under a ventilation hood or duct return

-Install equipment in an area not conductive to safe and proper operator use.

CLEARANCE:

It is important for the proper operation and longevity of your Aladdin Temp-Rite unit that it have adequate provisions for air supply to the compressor. Allow approximately 6” - 12” between the back grill of the unit and the wall for proper air flow.

INSTALLATION STEPS:

A.The outside carton has already been removed and inspected for damage. Remove all packing and strapping material from the exterior and interior of the unit. (Note: Packing material should be saved should there be any damage to unit.)

B.Remove the Aladdin Air Curtain from the shipping skid. This is done by tilting the unit and rolling it

off the skid. Do not lay the cabinet down.

D.Tray slides have tabs formed into the side of the support. Simply put the tab into the square hole in the side of the cabinet and push down to seat. The supports can be installed in a horizontal plane or can be mounted in a slightly sloped orientation to cause the product to slide forward on the sheet pans.

E.The LED digital temperature display is powered up when the unit is plugged in, it registers temperature in Fahrenheit degrees. The unit can be set up to show temperatures in Celsius degrees. (See Page 9, ON/OFF Switch for Instructions.)

IV. PRODUCT FEATURES

CASTERS:

5” diameter polyurethane casters are supplied standard for Air Curtain models. They are attached to 10-gauge stainless steel corner plate reinforcements/stress pads. These are shipped already installed on the unit for immediate use.

SIDE GRIPS & REAR HANDLE:

For easy mobility and maneuvering stainless steel recessed hand grips are provided on the left and right sides, in addition to a 1” welded tubular push/pull handle is attached to the rear of the cabinet with rubber donut bumpers mounted to the handle, one at each end, for additional protection of the unit. (Fig.1 on p7.)

FULL SWING DOOR WITH MAGNETIC HOLD OPEN CATCH:

Door opens to lay flat against cabinet and is secured by a magnetic door edge “catch”. In addition, when the door is closed, it also is secured magnetically, thus removing the need of a cumbersome door latch.

TRAY SLIDES:

Ten (10) pairs of removable stainless steel tray slides are provided standard at 4-1/2” spacing. Each tray slide can accommodate one (1) 18” x 26” pan / tray.

“TILT TRAY” FEATURE:

Each tray slide is provided with two (2) front locations to mount tray slide. Choose the lower front mount to angle the tray slide or choose the upper location to mount tray slide horizontally. (Fig. 2 on p7.)

V. INTENDED USE & START-UP

OVERVIEW:

The Air Curtain Refrigerator is specifically designed to hold 45°F or lower temperature with the door(s) open for a minimum of 30 minutes, or longer dependent upon application and operating conditions (room temp, humidity, surrounding air exchanges, and voltage).

When the door of the unit is closed, it operates as a force air refrigerator with a highly efficient refrigeration system that provides faster “pull down” and “recovery” times than standard refrigerators. When the door is opened, a series of blower fans create a “wall” of air and areas of pressure, localizing a unique pattern of air from both the left and right side walls, as well as from the top. This movement across the cabinet opening helps to keep the cold air in and the warm air out of the food zone and is specifically designed to maintain and prolong the interior cabinet temperature and, thus, help maintain internal food product temperatures for extended periods of time with the door open, assuring safer product storage during service hours.

This AIR CURTAIN seals itself around objects and is ideal for hospital and nursing home tray line / assembly line kitchen operations, flight kitchens, cafeterias, fast food and QSR applications. For best results, the air curtain was designed for “low profile” food products typical of these applications.

TYPICAL OPERATING PARAMETERS:

The “curtain” is capable of maintaining 45°F temperature or below for 30 to 120 minutes based at 75°F / 45% RH / 120V 20 amp dedicated circuit. Typical operational environments should result in a 45 to 90 minute range. HOWEVER, actual time your unit will run in this temperature zone depends on many factors, such as:

•Room ambient temperature

•Humidity levels

•Air disruption (such as a hood, vent, or air return)

•Amount of time unit was allowed to precondition the food(s)

•Food temperatures when placed into the unit

•Type of food packaging and profile of foods

•Regularly maintained and CLEANED condensing unit

It should also be noted that there is a lag time between the “ambient air” temperature in the cabinet and that of the actual product temperature. The food temperature differential can be 10°F - 25°F cooler than the temperature indicated by the temperature display.
