OVERVIEW

 Upper Section: This merchandiser is designed to

merchandise unpackaged product at a range of 33 °F to 38 °F (1 °C to 3 °C) product temperatures.

 Lower Section

: This merchandiser is designed to merchandise packaged product at 41 °F (5 °C) or less product temperatures.

 Product Pre-Chill Requirement

: Product must be pre-chilled to above listed temperatures prior to being placed in merchandiser.

 These cases should be installed and operated

according to this operating manual’s instructions to ensure proper performance. Improper use will void warranty.

 Improper use will void warranty.

TYPE 1 vs. TYPE 2 CONDITIONS

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.

PRECAUTIONS

 This sheet contains important precautions to prevent

damage to unit or merchandise.

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

CONDITION TYPE, COMPLIANCE and WARNINGS.

WIRING DIAGRAM

 Wiring diagram is folded and in its own packet.

CAUTION! LAMP REPLACEMENT GUIDELINES

CAUTION

Fluorescent lamps have been treated to resist breakage and

must be replaced with similarly treated lamps.

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 placement may vary; it may be placed

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

POWER CORD AND PLUG MAINTENANCE

 Caution! Risk of electric shock.  If cord or plug becomes damaged, replace only with

cord and plug of same type.

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/small rooms increase noise level. Whisper Cool

compressor blanket or remote unit may resolve noise level issues.

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

(self-contained units only).

WIRING DIAGRAM FORMAT & LOCATION

 Each case has its own wiring diagram folded & 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.

INSTALLATION: REMOVAL FROM SKID, REMOVING VERTICAL LOWER FRONT PANEL

1. Remove Case From Skid (Rails)

 Remove shipping brace that may be securing case

to skid.

 Support case to prevent tipping.  Caution! Levelers can be damaged if case hits floor

with heavy force!

 Carefully slide unit to

rear of skid and tip backward off skid.

 Illustration may not

reflect every feature or option of your particular case.

Slide Skid Out

Case can be repositioned with pallet truck when front lower panel is removed. Blocking may be necessary to obtain adequate height.

2. Remove Case From Skid (Casters)

Remove shipping brackets that may be securing casters to skid

 Place ramp up against skid (to allow case to

smoothly slide off from skid).

 Maintain support of case at all times or center of

gravity may cause case to fall.

 Unlock Casters. Roll unit to rear of skid.



Roll down ramp and off from skid.

INSTALLATION, CONT.: POSITIONING & ALIGNING CASE / BOLTING & CAULKING UNITS TOGETHER

4. Position & Align Case Alongside Other Cases

 Before adjusting levelers (or shimming frame

support rails), make certain that case is in proper position and, if required, aligned with adjoining case.

 This may require the repositioning of the case you

are installing or

5. Bolting and Caulking Units Together

Follow these steps to assure a secure, level lineup. A. Begin lineup leveling from highest point of floor.

B. After ‘first’ case is level, apply industrial grade butyl

caulk on non-visible areas (at case end). Use industrial grade silicone sealant on visible areas (at case end). See caulk/silicone illustrations at

lower-left. C. Form Two (2) Caulk/Sealant Lines and Refrigeration). See illustration at mid-right for outline of caulk/sealant lines.

D. Line up ‘second’ case bolt-hole to bolt-hole to ‘first’

case.

E. Using SCC-supplied bolts (and/or screws) found in

installation packet, insert bolts in bolt hole locations (shown below). You may need to remove decking to access lower bolt holes.

F. Caution! Front of cases MUST be flush with each

other! After leveling, cases are to be same height.

G. Using SCC-supplied nuts & bolts, lightly tighten

each of the 5 to 8 bolts in a cross-wise pattern. Work your way around the pattern, tightening more firmly at each pass. Do not

firmly tighten one bolt

and then start on the next!

H. After the cases are bolted together, level the

‘second’ case. Repeat this process for each case to be adjoined.

I. After all lined-up cases are level, seal all seams

with industrial grade silicone sealant.
