Product Support and Installation Contractors.

Foster Refrigerator recognises that its activities, products and services can have an adverse impact upon the environment. The organisation is committed to implementing systems and controls to manage, reduce and eliminate its adverse environmental impacts wherever possible, and has formulated an Environmental Policy outlining our core aims. A copy of the Environmental Policy is available to all contractors and suppliers upon request. The organisation is committed to working with suppliers and contractors where their activities have the potential to impact upon the environment. To achieve the aims stated in the Environmental Policy we require that all suppliers and contractors operate in compliance with the law and are committed to best practice in environmental management. Product Support and Installation contractors are required to:

1. Ensure that wherever possible waste is removed from the client’s site, where arrangements are in place all waste should be returned to Foster Refrigerator’s premises. In certain circumstances waste may be disposed of on the client’s site; if permission is given, if the client has arrangements in place

for the type of waste.

2. If arranging for the disposal of your waste, handle, store and dispose of it in such a way as to prevent its escape into the environment, harm to human health, and to ensure the compliance with the environmental law. Guidance is available from the Environment Agency on how to comply with the waste management ‘duty of care’.

3. The following waste must be stored of separately from other wastes, as they are hazardous to the environment: refrigerants, polyurethane foam, and oils.

4. When arranging for disposal of waste, ensure a waste transfer note or consignment note is completed as appropriate. Ensure that all waste is correctly described on the waste note and include the appropriate six-digit code from the European Waste Catalogue. Your waste contractor or Foster can provide further information if necessary.

5. Ensure that all waste is removed by a registered waste carrier, a carrier in possession of a waste management licence, or a carrier holding an appropriate exemption. Ensure the person receiving the waste at its ultimate destination is in receipt of a waste management licence or valid exemption.

6. Handle and store refrigerants in such a way as to prevent their emission to atmosphere, and ensure they are disposed of safely and in accordance with environmental law.

7. Make arrangements to ensure all staff who handle refrigerants do so at a level of competence consistent with the City Guilds 2078 Handling Refrigerants qualification or equivalent qualification.

8. Ensure all liquid substances are securely stored to prevent leaks and spill, and are not disposed of into storm drains, foul drain, or surface water to soil.

If not disposed of properly all refrigerators have components that can be harmful to the environment. All old refrigerators must be disposed of by appropriately registered and licensed waste contractors, and in accordance with national laws and regulations.

Foster Refrigerator recommends that the equipment is electrically connected via a Residual Current Device; such as a Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) type socket, or through a Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overload Protection (RCBO) supplied circuit.

The EcoPro G2 range comes as a Full Gastronorm format in a variety of capacities and temperatures. A standard unit comes with 2/1 shelves (3 with a single model, 6 with a double model). The fish model comes fitted with fixed racking to take 7 fish boxes (198kgs) as standard whereas the wine version comes with a racking assembly that holds either 140x75cl bottles (for a single model) or 280 x 75cl (for a double model). The units are manufactured as a one piece shell with easy clean stainless steel exterior. Each conforms to the current legislation and exceeds the Montreal protocol by using zero ODP (ozone depleting substances) refrigerants and insulation. There is also the added option of having Hydrocarbon refrigerant with certain model variations.

Each unit’s temperature is controlled by a microprocessor with digital temperature display. There are

several temperature options available exceeding the Climate Class 5 operations by giving an ambient temperature to 43°C. Each temperature display is also easy to read with a wipe clean finish.

The standard form of refrigeration system in this unit is integrated with an air-cooled condensing unit that allows cooled air to circulate through the evaporator, via the fan into storage areas. It does this by distributing the refrigerant into the evaporator controlled by a capillary. Remote systems are also available as an option, the difference being, the evaporator is controlled by an expansion valve instead of capillary. Other points to be made on these units are that they have coated coils to prevent corrosion and to help prolong the refrigerator’s life.

Cabinets come with an easily removable plug box and lid.

Initial Set Up After unpacking clean and allow the cabinet to stand for 2 hours before turning on.

Ensure the cabinet is situated where neither hot nor cold air sources will affect its performance. Make sure that a minimum clearance of 310mm above and 50mm around the cabinet is available for ventilation and effective operation.

Initial Start up

Connect the unit to a suitable mains power outlet and turn the supply on. Please do not plug or unplug the unit with wet hands.

The cabinet will energise briefly showing -- followed by the power switch slowly pulsing with a

blank display. The unit is now in standby.

Pressing this switch for 3 seconds will turn the unit on (the switch backlight is static and the display shows the operating temperature) or put into standby (the switch backlight pulses slowly on & off). As the operating temperature has been pre-set no adjustments are required. Allow the cabinet to reach its normal/set operating temperature before loading.

You are required to enter this mode to make any setup changes. These include Set Point, Keypad Security, and display of T1, 2 or 3 probe temperatures.

Press and immediately release , after which the and switches will flash/pulse together.

Press to scroll through the following screens:

To exit this mode scroll back to the adjustment screen and press or wait for 30 seconds and the display will revert to the normal display showing the operating temperature.

Access the adjustment mode as described above. Using the or switches to scroll to the mode

that requires adjustment i.e. ‘Set Point’ this is the minimum temperature the cabinet is allowed to

cool down to (the display shows the temperature and flash/pulsing icon).

To adjust this press and release the icon will show constantly. Adjust the setting with the

or switch. Confirm the change by pressing and releasing again, the next mode will

automatically show. Scroll through the modes with the or switch until you return to the

adjustment screen and press and release to exit and save.

If at any point the display is left for 30 seconds it will revert to the normal display and no changes will be saved.

If you require the cabinet to have a more accurate or increased sensitivity to temperature and the warnings this controls, the controller is able to measure temperature in 1/10ths of a degree (0.1°) instead of whole degrees. With parameter ‘SC’ set to ‘1C’ the display will show the temperature as 1/10ths of a degree on the scale between -9.9°C to +9.9°C.

Also, with parameter ‘SC’ set to ‘1F’ the controller has the facility to show the temperature in Fahrenheit (between 58°F to 99°F). However if this is selected all other temperature related parameter values will have to be set

accordingly to this change. (See ‘Configuration of Parameters’ for information on how to access this).

Access the ‘Keypad Security’ screen as described before.

The screen will show the current status, initially pre-set to ‘ ’, with flashing. Press and release

and will show constantly. (If you modify this setting with to show ‘ ’ the keypad will be

locked, will show constantly and the cabinet will not be able to be put into standby, carry out a manual defrost, adjust temperature set point, download data or switch on/off the units lights. To

confirm any change you must press again so the next screen ‘ ’ shows). Exit any of the ‘Adjustment Modes’ as described before.

To switch on the lights press and release so that the switch backlight is on continuously. To

switch off press and release and the switch backlight will flash/pulse.

This option is only available when enabled via parameters and the cabinet has the additional FCOM1 device available –this availability will be shown by the data switch being constantly illuminated.

To download the data the switch should be pressed and then released. The information will then begin downloading to the appropriate printer or PC and the backlight of the switch will flash. On completion the switch will return to constant state of illumination.

All Foster G2 cabinets are fitted with a fully automatic defrost system to ensure that the evaporator coil remains free from ice during normal use. Melt-water is evaporated using either the heat from the refrigeration system or a separate electric heater (dependent upon model and configuration).

To activate a manual defrost – while the cabinet is in ‘run’ mode press and hold for 5 seconds. After 3 seconds the display will go blank then return after a further 2 seconds. At this point a defrost will be performed (subject to underlying operating parameters), this will terminate automatically.

The reduced energy control mode (‘e’ mode) detects when the unit has reached the selected temperature set-point and the operating conditions (such as usage rate) have become less demanding. When enabled, the controller will modify the compressor, evaporator fan and defrost operation in

order to reduce the energy consumed. During the reduced energy control mode is illuminated at the bottom right corner of the display. Upon an increase in operating demand the controller reverts back to the standard operating settings

with the symbol extinguished. The ‘e’ mode is enabled by setting parameter ‘iiM’ to ‘Au’. Further

parameter settings (‘iiS’, ‘iit’, ‘iiP’, ‘iiY’, ‘iiF’, ‘iid’, and ‘iiE’) control the temperature cycle during the reduced energy control mode. Setting parameter ‘iiM’ to ‘no’ disables the ‘e’ mode.

#

> ‘PF’ will be displayed, the

alarm will sound and will show when there has been a mains power failure that has affected the internal air temperature of the cabinet (only if the unit was not in standby mode). When mains power is restored the cabinet will continue to operate, and adjust the temperature as required. The warning will

sound & show until has been pressed and released, to cancel the alarm. We would recommend the contents of the unit are inspected.

position

> Adjust to colder setting

> Condenser is dirty

> Clean condenser

> The refrigerator has been placed

at an inadequate location

> The unit must not be near

stoves, walls that are exposed to the sun, or places that lack sufficient air flow.

> Compressor is inefficient or there

is a high pressure due to the air in the system

> If there is air in the system,

purge and recharge

> Iced up evaporator coil

> Check temperature control,

refrigerant charge, and defrost mechanism. Remove all ice manually and start over.

> Restriction in system

> Locate exact point of

restriction and correct

> The refrigerator has been used

improperly

> The shelves must never be

covered with any type of plastic or other material that will block the circulation of cold air within the refrigerator.

GB

> Too many door openings

> Advise user to decrease if

possible

> Excessive heat load placed in

cabinet

> Advise user not to put in

products that are too hot.

> The refrigerator has been

overcharged with the refrigerant gas

> Check to see if condensation

or ice crystals have formed on the suction line. If so, charge with the correct amount of gas.

> The refrigerant gas is leaking

> Find the location of gas leak in

order to seal and replace the defective component. Change the drier. Perform a good vacuum and recharge unit.

> The evaporator and/or condenser

fans are not working

> Check electrical connections

and make sure that the fan

blade isn’t stuck. Replace the fan motor if it doesn’t work.

> Blocking air flow

> Re-arrange product to allow

for proper air flow. Make sure there is at least four inches of clearance from evaporator.

> Fuse blown or circuit breaker

tripped

> Replace fuse or reset circuit

breaker.

Electrical Shocks

> Wires or electrical components

are in direct contact with metallic parts.

> Check for appropriate

insulation on the connections of each component.

Noise

> The refrigerator is not properly

levelled

> Check if the noise goes away

after you level the refrigerator

> The condenser is not fastened

correctly. Copper tubing is in contact with metal

> While the compressor is

working, check to see if metal parts are in contact with one another and/or if the screws that fasten the condenser are tightened.

> The evaporator and/or condenser

fans are loose

> Check if the fans are securely

fastened. Also, check if the fan blades are loose, broken or crooked. If so, change the faulty blade.

> Compressor has an internal noise

> If the noise persists after all

other measures have been taken, it may be originating from the compressor.

> Loose part(s)

> Locate and tighten loose

part(s)
