OVERVIEW

 The Structural Concepts® Glass Front, Freezer

Service Gelato Display Case is designed to
merchandise gelato and/or soft ice cream into cones,
containers or dishes.

 This case is designed to maintain product at

temperatures of -2° F (–19 °C).

 Product must be pre-chilled to -2 °F (–19 °C) before

placing in merchandiser.

 Cases should be installed and operated according to

this operating manual’s instructions to insure proper
performance.

 Improper use will void warranty.

CASE TYPE

This unit is designed for the display of products in ambient
store conditions where temperatures and humidity are
maintained within a specific range.

 For Type 1 Conditions (most cases): ambient

conditions are to be at 55% maximum humidity and
maximum temperatures of 75 °F [24 °C].

 For Type 2 Conditions: ambient conditions are to be at

60% maximum humidity and maximum temperatures
of 80 °F [27 °C].

 If unsure if unit is designed for Type 1 or 2, see tag

next to serial label. See SERIAL LABEL LOCATION
& INFORMATION LISTED / TECH INFO & SERVICE
section in this manual for sample serial labels.

OVERVIEW / TYPE / COMPLIANCE / WARNINGS / PRECAUTIONS / WIRING / PLUGS - PAGE 2 of 2

PRECAUTIONS

 This sheet contains important precautions to prevent

damage to unit or merchandise.

 Please read carefully!
 See previous page for specifics on OVERVIEW,

TYPE, COMPLIANCE and WARNINGS.

CAUTION! LAMP REPLACEMENT GUIDELINES

Fluorescent lamps have been treated to resist breakage and

CAUTION

must be replaced with similarly treated lamps.

LED lamps reflect specific size, shape and overall design.

Any replacements must meet factory specifications.

CAUTION! GFCI BREAKER USE REQUIREMENT

If N.E.C. (National Electric Code) or your local code

requires GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection,

you MUST use a GFCI breaker in lieu of a GFCI receptacle.

WIRING DIAGRAM

 Each case has its own wiring diagram folded and in

its own packet.

 Wiring diagram placement may vary; it may be

placed near ballast box, field wiring box, raceway
cover, or other related location.

CAUTION

CAUTION! POWER CORD AND PLUG MAINTENANCE

Risk of electric shock. If cord or plug becomes damaged,

replace only with cord and plug of same type.

CAUTION! ADVERSE CONDITIONS / SPACING ISSUES

 Performance issues caused by adverse conditions are NOT warranted.
 End panels must be tightly joined or kept at least 6-inches away from

any structure to prevent condensation.

 Unit must be kept at least 15-feet from exterior doors, overhead HVAC

vents or any air curtain disruption to maintain proper temperatures.

 Unit must not be exposed to direct sunlight or any heat source

(ovens, fryers, etc.).

 Tile floors, low ceilings or small rooms increase noise level. Whisper

Cool compressor blankets or remote units resolve noise level issues.

 Keep at least 8-inch clearance above unit for air discharge

(self-contained units only).

CAUTION! CHECK EVAPORATOR PAN POSITION AND PLUG

Water on flooring can cause extensive damage!

 Evaporator pan MUST BE positioned directly under condensate drain.
 Evaporator pan plug MUST BE securely plugged into receptacle.

Before powering up unit, check the following:

illustration above).

1. Remove Unit From Skid

Caution: case must always remain supported or
center of gravity will allow case to fall. Slide unit
to rear of skid and tip backward off skid.

3. Remote Electrical Connections:

 Caution! These units MUST BE sealed to the

floor to maintain conformance to NSF®
equipment mounting standards.

 Align multiple units (as shown above with balloons

A and B).

pins/contacts from lamp-mounting sockets.

 Remove bulb by applying even pressure from back side at the bulb

ends and pulling the remaining contact from sockets.

Installation of lamp:

 Align pins with slot.
 Insert pins into socket by rotating the bulb 1/4-turn to secure either

the (upper or lower) pin contacts into the sockets.

 Rotate remaining bulb contacts (1/4-turn) into remaining lamp

mounting socket contacts.
