2 Installation

Safety First Always observe safety precautions when using any electrical appliance.

Read these instructions carefully and retain them for future reference.

 When the appliance is used by or near young children or infirm persons,

close supervision is necessary, especially to ensure children do not play
with it.

 Do not use this appliance for other than its intended use.

 Do not cover the grilles or block the entry or exhaust of airflow by

placing objects up against the refrigeration unit.

 Do not probe any opening.

 Only use this appliance with the voltage specified on the rating label.

 Ensure the appliance has adequate ventilation as this is essential to

economical, high performance.

 Be careful not to touch moving parts and hot surfaces.

 For your own safety and that of others, ensure that all electrical work is

done by authorised personnel.

 If the power supply flexible cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced

by an authorised service agent or similarly qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard.

 Ensure all necessary safety precautions are observed during installation

or removal of the refrigeration unit.

 The appliance is not designed to be stable while in motion. Use extreme

caution when moving or transporting it.

 Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a

flammable propellant in this appliance.

 Please contact SKOPE customer services for advice regarding disposal

of this appliance.

CAUTION

Never overload the power supply, which could damage the

chiller and product. See the rating label inside the cabinet for

the safe power supply and current draw.

WARNING

Always disconnect the chiller from the mains power supply

before cleaning or maintenance.

WARNING

If retrofitting door locks, ensure retrofit is done by a SKOPE

approved service technician following SKOPE guidelines on

instruction sheet PRN8503.

Locating the Cabinet

Location When positioning the cabinet, avoid direct sunlight and warm draughts etc.

The cabinet must NOT be situated where it is affected by warm or hot air
from adjacent equipment, as this will compromise the airflow and
performance of the chiller.

The cabinet must be positioned on a level surface for the doors to shut and
seal correctly, and to prevent the condensate tray from overflowing.
Adequate allowance should be made for door opening.

Always ensure that the top of the cabinet is shielded from impact and
moisture, with either a SKOPE provided bench top, or with a custom or
existing bench top.

When installing the cabinet

 Avoid direct sunlight and warm draughts etc.
 Allow adequate space for the doors to open fully.
 Ensure the cabinet is positioned on a level surface so the doors shut

and seal correctly and to prevent the condensate tray from overflowing.

Ventilation For efficient operation of the chiller, it is essential that adequate ventilation

be provided around the front of the refrigeration unit. Normal operating
conditions should not exceed the operating temperature range (see page 4).

It is critical that the hot refrigeration exhaust air is not restricted and that it
can easily flow out and away from the front of the cabinet. Never store
cardboard cartons or other items in front of the refrigeration unit. The
ventilation slots on the unit front cover must be kept clear at all times.

Power Supply The chiller is supplied with a flexible power cord and plug, which is located

at the rear of the cabinet.

Before final positioning of the cabinet, pull the power cord out from the
cabinet and connect to the power supply.

WARNING:

Do NOT overload the power supply. See the rating label inside

the cabinet for power supply and current draw.

Positioning the Cabinet

Legs and

Castors

The chiller is packed with a set of adjustable height legs and a set of
adjustable height castors. Either of these sets can be fitted to the cabinet
depending on specific height and manoeuvrability requirements. The legs or
castors should be fitted to the base of the cabinet before final positioning.

The adjustable legs screw into the castor mounting plates attached to the
bottom of the cabinet. The adjustable legs can adjust the cabinet height up
to 30mm.

To adjust leg height

1. Turn the black plastic foot
at the bottom of the leg
counter-clockwise to raise
the height or clockwise to
lower.

The adjustable castors screw into the castor mounting plates attached to the
bottom of the cabinet. The two lockable castors should be fitted to the front
of the cabinet and the non-locking castors fitted to the rear. The adjustable
castors can adjust the cabinet height up to 15mm.

To adjust castor height

1. Loosen the lock nut.

2. Turn the castor counter­clockwise to raise the
height or clockwise to
lower (see image below).
Re-tighten each lock nut
after final adjustment has
been made.

Fitting the

Shelves

Loading Product

Remove all packaging material from the shelves. Clip the shelf support
brackets into the shelf support strips, at the desired heights, and fit the
shelves. The shelves may be positioned at different heights to suit various
products. Always ensure that the shelf clips are securely engaged in each
of the shelf support strips. The shelf support strips are marked ‘+’ for easy
location of shelf clips and can be lifted up and removed for cleaning
purposes.

The chiller should be left running for 30 minutes before loading with product.

When loading product

 Allow air space around all the product to ensure even cooling and

efficient operation of the chiller.

 Do not allow products to overhang the front of the shelf as this could

prevent the doors from shutting. Leave an airspace of at least 75mm
above product loaded on the top shelf.

 Do not exceed a maximum loading of 20kg per shelf.

 Remove some product if the shelves are flexing or bending.

Electronic Controller

The compressor, and the condenser and evaporator fans should all operate
within two minutes from the time the cabinet is plugged in. This may be
verified by listening for compressor switch-on and checking for air
movement out of the top ventilation slots in the refrigeration unit front cover.
The compressor and condenser fan should switch on and off depending on
the cabinet temperature.

The light switch, located next to the electronic controller on the refrigeration
unit front cover, activates the cabinet interior lighting and can be switched on
or off as required.

When the cabinet is connected to the power supply, the electronic controller
will display the current cabinet temperature. The compressor LED will
indicate the compressor is operating and the evaporator fan LED will
normally come on within two minutes (see “Electronic Controller” on page 11
for controller display).

To ensure efficient operation, the electronic controller forces regular
defrosts. During the defrost cycle, the compressor and condenser fan switch
off and the evaporator fan stays on.

Overview

Temperature

Setpoint

The CAREL ir33 electronic controller controls and displays the internal
cabinet temperature. The preset temperature setting keeps the product
temperature within the operating temperature range (see page 4). The
electronic controller also signals temperature alarms (see next page).

For general operation, the electronic controller requires no initial setup or
additional programming.

When the cabinet is connected to the power supply, the electronic controller
will display the current cabinet temperature. The compressor LED will
indicate the compressor is operating and the evaporator fan LED will
normally come on within 2 minutes.

The chiller temperature setpoint is factory set (see table below) and can be
adjusted if necessary. SKOPE do not recommend that the setpoint be
changed unless it is absolutely necessary, and then only by small
increments at a time.

damp cloth. Ensure the cabinet is disconnected from the mains power
supply before cleaning the cabinet.

Disconnect the cabinet from the mains power supply before

cleaning the condenser coil or washing the cabinet with water.

CAUTION

Condenser

Coil

Integral cabinets only. The condenser coil should be brushed clean once a
month and blown clean by qualified service personnel every six months.
Over time, dust may accumulate within the condenser that cannot be
removed with a brush. If this occurs, contact SKOPE to arrange for a
SKOPE authorised service agent to clean the condenser with compressed
air. The condenser coil is located inside the refrigeration unit compartment
and is accessed by opening the unit front cover. Disconnect the cabinet from
the power supply before cleaning the condenser coil.
