7.1 Location
7.2 Leveling
7.3 Wiring
Install the unit on a level area free from vibration with a minimum of 6 inches of
space on the sides and rear and 12 inches at the top. Do not position the
equipment in direct sunlight or near heating diffusers, radiators, or other sources
of heat.
Make sure that the floor is level. The unit must be level both front to back and
side to side. If the unit is out of level, you may need to shim the corners or casters
with thin sheets of metal. Be sure to set the brakes for units equipped with
casters.
The wiring diagrams are attached on the back of the cabinet.
CAUTION: Connect the equipment to the correct power source. Incorrect
voltage can result in severe damage to the equipment.
CAUTION: For personal safety and trouble-free operation, this unit must
be properly grounded while in use. Failure to ground the equipment may
cause personal injury or damage to the equipment. Always conform to the
National Electrical Code and local codes. Do not connect the unit to
overloaded power lines.
CAUTION: Do not position the unit in a way that impedes access to the
disconnecting device or circuit breaker in the back of the unit.
CAUTION: Always connect the unit to a dedicated (separate) circuit. Each
unit is equipped with a service cord and plug designed to connect it to a
power outlet which delivers the correct voltage. Supply voltage must be
within ±10% of the unit rated voltage. If cord becomes damaged, replace
with a properly rated power supply cord.

7.4 Shelves
7.5 Drawers
Blood Bank Refrigerators have the option to be ordered with 4 wire shelves.
Additional shelves are offered as available options.
Maximum shelf capacity is 45 kg (100 lbs).
For safety in shipping, the shelves are packaged and secured inside the cabinet.

Drawers are shipped in a factory installed position that promotes uniform
spacing between the drawers. The drawer slides are adjustable to higher and
lower positions in the cabinet. You can position these slides in the vertical slots
which are spaced at one-inch intervals. The drawers must be removed in order to
adjust the position of the drawer slides.
The maximum drawer capacity is 27 kg (60 lbs).
