I. INTRODUCTION
Convect-Rite™ III Docking Stations
The Convect-Rite™ III Docking Stations are installed and electrically connected in the
ward pantry for a decentralized operation or grouped in one area for a centralized operation. Operation and programming of these units is shown in the Owners Manual. The
Convect-RiteTM III Docking Station is a dual cold and hot air-generator, which may be
used up to three times a day in the Auto mode:
•
To keep the meals at the recommended and safe temperature of
37/41°F (+3°C/+5°C) during stand-by periods prior to rethermalization.
•
To rethermalize starters, soups, hot desserts or main-courses in
approximately 50-60 minutes before service.
•
IMPORTANT NOTE: The food products in the cold section, should be at
maximum homogeneous 50°F (10°C) temperature when loaded inside the
cart, so that the Convect-RiteTM III System can keep them between 37
and 41°F (+3° and +5°C) at the end of the chill-down and rethermalization
cycle.
•
A minimum chill-down cycle of 50 minutes is recommended prior to
rethermalization to assure the lowest possible cold food temperatures.

SETTING AGAINST THE WALL
Make adequate space and thoroughly clean the location before you begin the install.The Docking
Station has eight adjustable feet (four on the back & four on the bottom). When starting the
install process all eight feet should be completely seated. Gently push unit within 1/4” of the
wall. Loosen the 7/8” jam nuts on the back four feet. Adjust all four back feet close to the
wall but not touching it. Extend one foot at a time to touch the wall, trying to keep the unit
parallel to the wall as possible (due to wall inconsistency all four feet may be adjusted to
different lengths) NOTE: Recommend adjusting the top feet until the Docking Station sits at
a 5° angle away from the wall as a starting position.
LIFTING THE UNIT OFF THE CASTERS
NOTE: If feet are unevenly set the unit’s frame may be damaged by racking.
The Convect-Rite™ III Docking Station MUST BE LEVEL BOTH FRONT TO BACK AND SIDE TO
SIDE. Depending on oor condition reference gasket alignment between the cart and Docking Station to insure proper gasket seal for correct positioning.
Ensure that both caster locks point away from the wall, and are 90˚ to the wall in the locked
position.
The four feet on the base of the Docking Station are adjustable to achieve this. Be mindful
when setting the feet that:
• A Docking Station set too low can result in interference between the lower cart hinge and
the Docking Station interface channel.
• A Docking Station set out of level right-to-left can result in an insufcient seal between
the unit and the gaskets on the cart.
• A Docking Station set out of level front-to-back can result in an insufcient seal between
the unit and cart and possibly make mating the cart more
difcult.
Loosen the 7/8” jam nuts on the four bottom feet. Then adjust the
four feet close to the oor, but not touching it. Slowly continue to
extend each foot a turn at a time, until the top of the base is 7.1”
(see diagram) off the ground (the caster should be off the ground at
this point). However, due to oor inconsistency, all four feet may be
adjusted to different lengths
