II. RECEIPT INSPECTION
III. INSTALLATION (continued)
All Traulsen products are factory tested for perfor­mance and are free from defects when shipped. The utmost care has been taken in crating this product to protect against damage in transit. All interior fittings have been carefully secured and the legs or casters are boxed and strapped inside to prevent damage. Door keys will be attached to the handle with a nylon strip. The handle is protected by an easily removable nylon netting.
You should carefully inspect your Traulsen unit for damage during delivery. If damage is detected, you should save all the crating materials and make note on the carriers Bill Of Lading describing this. A freight claim should be filed immediately. If damage is sub­sequently noted during or immediately after installa­tion, contact the respective carrier and file a freight claim. Under no condition may a damaged unit be re­turned to Traulsen & Co. without first obtaining writ­ten permission (return authorization).
III. INSTALLATION
III. a -
LOCATION: Select a proper location for your Traulsen unit, away from extreme heat or cold. Allow enough clearance between the unit and the side wall so that the door (s) may open a minimum of 90°.
III. d - INSTALLING LEGS OR CASTERS: 6 high stainless steel legs are supplied standard for models RBC50 and RBC100. Casters in lieu of legs are available as an optional accessory for the same models. These are shipped from the factory packed inside a cardboard box which is strapped to one of the shelves (two boxes for model RBC50 which re­quires either eight legs or casters). Remove the nylon strap and open the box(es), it should contain either four (4) legs or four (4) casters and sixteen (16) bolts.
WARNING: THE CABINET MUST BE BLOCKED AND STABLE BEFORE INSTALLING LEGS OR CASTERS.
To install the legs or casters, first raise and block the unit a minimum of 7from the floor. For installing legs, thread the legs into the threaded holes on the bottom of the cabinet (see figure 1). Be certain that all legs are tightly secured (legs and casters should be tightened to 300 inch/pounds, max). When the unit is set in its final position, it is important for proper op­eration that the unit be level. The legs are adjustable for this purpose, turn the bottom of the leg counter­clockwise to raise it, clockwise to lower it. Level the unit from front to back as well as side to side in this manner, using a level placed in the bottom of the cabi­net.
III. b - PACKAGING: All Traulsen units are shipped from the factory bolted to a sturdy wooden pallet and packaged in a durable cardboard container. The carton is attached to the wooden skid with the use of large staples. These should first be removed to avoid scratching the unit when lifting off the crate.
To remove the wooden pallet, first if at all possible, we suggest that the cabinet remain bolted to the pallet during all transportation to the point of final installa­tion. The bolts can then be removed with a 3/4” socket wrench. Avoid laying the unit on its front, side or back for removal of the pallet.
NOTE: Traulsen does not recommend laying the unit down on its front, side or back. However, if you must please be certain to allow the unit to remain in an up­right position afterwards for 24 hours before plugging it in so that the compressor oils and refrigerant may settle.
III. c - WIRING DIAGRAM: Refer to the wiring diagram for any service work per­formed on the unit. These are located on pages 21 thru 24 of this manual. Should you require a wiring diagram for a non-standard configuration unit, please contact Traulsen Service at (800) 825-8220, and pro­vide the model and serial number of the unit involved.
Fig. 1
Please note that Traulsen units are not designed to be moved while on legs. If the unit requires moving, a pallet jack or forklift should be used to prevent dam­age. For installing casters, the casters are “plate” type, and require the use of four (4) bolts each to se­cure them firmly to the cabinet bottom at each corner (see figure 2). The caster bolts are tightened using a 1/2 socket wrench.

IV. CARE & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE CONDENSER:
IV. a ­The most important thing you can do to insure a long, reliable service life for your Traulsen is to regularly clean the condenser coil. The self-contained condens­ing unit requires regularly scheduled cleaning to keep the finned condenser clean of lint and dust accumula­tion. Keeping the condenser clean allows the cabinet to operate more efficiently and use less energy.
To clean the self-contained condenser, first discon­nect electrical power to the cabinet and lift up the front louver assembly. To lift this, remove the two thumb screws located on both sides at the bottom of the lou­ver assembly . Once the screws are removed, the panel can be pivoted upwards allowing full access to the front facing condenser (for model RBC50, remove the four Phillips head screws from the front louver panel, and lift-off). Vacuum or brush any dirt, lint or dust from the finned condenser coil, the compressor and other cooling system parts. If significant dirt is clog­ging the condenser fins, use compressed air to blow this clear. Lower louver assembly and replace thumb screws to hold it in place. For care of the remote con­densing unit(s) used for models RBC200, RBC200RT, RBC400 and RBC400RT, consult the manufacturer’s product literature.
IV. b -
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR: Exterior stainless steel should be cleaned with warm water, mild soap and a soft cloth. Apply with a damp­ened cloth and wipe in the direction of the metal grain. Avoid the use of strong detergents and gritty, abra­sive cleaners as they may tend to mar and scratch the surface. Do NOT use cleansers containing chlorine, this may promote corrosion of the stainless steel.
IV. d - INSTALLING PRINTER PAPER (cont’d): the paper opening with the spindle in the paper roll. Position the paper so it is fed out from the bottom of the roll. Feed the paper into the bottom of the printer enough to start the edge of the paper and press the print button on the key pad (this will draw the paper up through the printer and feed the paper out through the front of the printer).
Feed the printer paper through the slot in the printer cover and position the printer cover in place. Secure the printer cover with the original screws (see figure
11).
Test the printer by pressing the print button and make sure the paper feeds normally and the text is clear.
Printer paper is standard 2-1/4” wide x 100’ long small diameter,Office Depot #451 - 310. Printer ribbon Traulsen service part number SPR-00001-00 is Epson #ERC-09, or Office Depot #626-602.

V. OTHER
Care should also be taken to avoid splashing the unit with water, containing chlorinated cleansers, when mopping the floor around the unit. For stubborn odor spills, use baking soda and water (mixed to a 1 TBSP baking soda to 1 pint water ratio).
WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING ANY PARTS OF THE UNIT.
IV. c - CLEANING THE INTERIOR: For cleaning stainless steel interiors, the use of bak­ing soda as described in section IV. bis recom­mended. Use on breaker strips as well as door gas­kets. All interior fittings are removable without tools to facilitate cleaning. A defrost cycle is the ideal time for performing interior cleaning.
IV. d - INSTALLING PRINTER PAPER: Remove the two (2) thumb screws on either side of the printer cover. Pull the printer cover out and up to expose the printer. Cut a clean edge on the end of a roll of printer paper. Install the printer paper in through
V. a - SERVICE AGENCY CHECK & START-UP: After installation and start-up, contact Traulsen’ s Ser­vice Department at (800) 825-8220 to arrange for a Mechanical Installation and Operation Inspection, which is required by Traulsen to validate the warranty . On-site inspection not required for model RBC50.

VI. BLAST CHILL OPERATION
VI. b - COVERING FOODS (cont’d): cess. NOTE: The plastic wrap or foil should be placed directly onto the food surface. DO NOT place a lid over the pan, or stretch the plastic wrap tightly across the rim of the pan. This will create an insulating layer of air above the food surface which will slow the cool­ing of the center of the food, while the outside edges are cooling rapidly due to being in contact with the pan surfaces (see figure 13).

VI. BLAST CHILL OPERATION
VI. a - LOADING FOOD INTO PANS: The food product to be blast chilled should be placed into metal pans (generally 12x 20x 2-1/2) to a DEPTH NOT TO EXCEED 2. This will assure the fast­est blast chilling cycle. NOTE: Use of deeper pans and/or plastic containers can cause freezing and if product is too thick or deep, the surface will freeze and the center of the product will be insulated, pre­venting proper chilling (see figure 12).

VI. c - GROUPING FOODS TO FORM BATCHES: In order to achieve the best utilization of the Blast Chiller Unit, it is possible to group foods with similar cooling properties to form “Batches”. This will allow one of the food probes to be inserted into one pan of food product within the “batch” and represent the cooling rate of the entire batch.
Based on our testing, we have found that foods with higher levels of water content will cool much faster than foods that have lower water content. If more than three (3) types of foods are to be blast chilled at the same time, it will be necessary to form one or more batches to make best utilization of the three (3) probes available. Below is a list of guidelines to follow when forming batches.
1) Do not combine hot food and room temperature foods within the same batch, even though they may be similar (i.e. hot tuna casserole and cool tuna salad). This is because it will take longer to cool from cook­ing temperatures to 40°F (5°C) than it will take from 70
°F to 40°F (21°C to 5°C). CAUTION: Coupling hot foods
with cold foods run the risk of the cold food remain­ing at dangerous temperatures too long as hot foods cool.
2) The chart on page 8 shows the relative cooling times of various foods compared to water (generally the fast­est to cool). It can also be used as an approximate guideline when forming batches.
VI. b - COVERING FOODS: It is recommended that all food product be covered with plastic wrap or foil for hot foods to minimize mois­ture loss from product during the blast chilling pro
3) Sliced meats placed in layers will cool more rapidly than whole meats due to the ratio of surface area to content (volume) allowing for greater heat dissipation.

VI. e - PAN PLACEMENT IN THE UNIT (cont’d): Bottom). This will facilitate easier removal from the unit if more than one batch is being blast chilled at the same time, but have different completion times.
In the RBC50 model, air flows through the unit in a horizontal plane from right to left, and left to right, there­fore, there is no significant difference if the pans are placed toward the rear of the unit or toward the door.
In the RBC100 model, air flows through the unit in a horizontal plane from right to left, therefore, there is no significant difference if the pans are placed toward the rear of the unit or toward the door (see figure 14).

VI. d -
MAXIMUM LOAD PER BATCH: Model RBC50 has a maximum recommended capacity of 50 lbs. of food. This would be approximately five (5) 12 x 20 x 2-1/2 pans with 2 thick product.
Model RBC100 has a maximum recommended capac­ity of 100 lbs. of food. This would be approximately ten (10) 12x 20x 2-1/2pans with 2” thick product.
Models RBC200 and RBC200RT have a maximum rec­ommended capacity of 200 lbs. of food. This would be approximately twenty (20) 12” x 20” x 2-1/2” pans (one cart) with 2 thick product.
Models RBC400 and RBC400RT have a maximum rec­ommended capacity of 400 lbs. of food. This would be approximately forty (40) 12x 20x 2-1/2pans (two carts) with 2 thick product.
All Blast Chiller units will provide more uniform cool­ing of the food if they are setup close to their capacity of food with each blast chill cycle. This is due to the fact that the heat being removed from the food tends to moderate the temperature of the air being circulated. Lightly loaded blast chill cycles tend to run with colder air temperatures, which can cause the food to freeze near the outside surfaces of the pans. The soft chill cycle should be used if the chiller is loaded less than 50% of capacity.
Fig. 14
On the Roll-In and Roll-Thru models, it is recommended that the slower cooling foods within the batch be placed in the area of the cart which will be toward the rear of the Blast Chill interior (away from the door). This area of the unit receives the incoming air from the blowers and is slightly cooler than the air passing over the pans nearest the doors (see figure 15).

VI. BLAST CHILL OPERATION (contd)
VI. f - FOOD PROBE PLACEMENT: The food probes should be placed into the food prod­uct so that the tip of the probe is near the core (abso­lute center) of the food in the pan. The food probe senses temperature in the last 1of metal tip. The core area will be the slowest to cool, therefore is used to monitor the completion of the blast chill cycle (see figure 16).
Sensing area of probe should be inserted as close to center of food product as possible.

Care should be taken to assure that the food probe tip is not touching the bottom or sides of the pan since these areas will cool much faster than the core area, prematurely terminating the blast chill cycle before the core has reached the desired temperature.
VI. g - EXAMPLE BATCHES FOR RBC50: Three food probes are available for assignments of 1, 2 or 3 separate batches of food. They may be assigned in a variety of combinations. Please review some of the various combinations shown in figures 17, 18, 19 & 20.

VII. a - OPERATING MODES: The Digitraul II (control panel) performs the following five basic functions:
1. Maintenance Mode
2. Blast Chill Mode
3. Soft Chill Mode
4. Flash Chill Mode
5. Constant Chill Mode
6. Continuous Batching Mode
MAINTENANCE MODE - Operates as a holding refrig­erator. Fail safe temperature holding range, preset at the factory of 34°F to 38°F (1.1°C to 3.3°C) and has an adjustable range of 30°F to 41°F (-1°C to 5°C).
BLAST CHILL MODE - Input temperatures from 140°F to 180°F (60°C to 82°C). Range of completion of Blast Chill cycle is adjustable between 35°F to 41°F (2°C to 5°C). Blast chill mode should be used for high density food such as meat, vegetables and starches.
SOFT CHILL MODE - Designed for light loads or low density products. Product is always setup using probes. As food temperature reaches 70°F (21°C), the fan speed is reduced. This will allow respiration, which will increase pull down times to control Blast Chilling effects. When air temperature reaches 34°F (1°C), the compressor cycles off and back on at 38°F (3°C). When food temperature reaches settings of 35°F to 41°F (2°C to 5°C), the cycle is complete.

FLASH CHILL MODE - Product is always setup with probe/probes. This mode reduces product tempera­ture to 0°F (-18°C) and is adjustable between 0° to +5°F (-18°C to -15°C). When the alarm sounds, product is ready to be removed. Cabinet automatically returns to 34°F to 38°F (1°C to 3°C) normal operating tempera- ture. NOTE: All product will be frozen in this mode. Freezing times will vary depending upon the product. All product must be removed after cycle is complete. The chiller will not hold product in frozen state.
CONST ANT CHILL MODE - This mode is similar to Blast Chill except that the food probes do not control the cycle. It is a time controlled operation, reverting to maintenance mode at the end of the timeframe set. Food probes can be used to monitor product tempera­ture. System will automatically defrost every three (3) hours. T o perform a Constant Chill Operation” press the NEW BATCH, then the CONSTANT CHILL button. The display will change to a digital clock reading of (1:30) with the hour flashing. Use the up & down arrow buttons to change the hours up or down and then push ENTER. Now the minutes will be flashing. Set the min­utes desired with the arrow buttons and then press ENTER. Now press the ST ART button to run the batch. When the amount of time set in the display is reached, the unit will sound the alarm and return to maintenance mode. Note: Pressing TIMER” button during the batch will display the time remaining in the current cycle.

PROBE TEMPERA TURE & ALARM W ARNINGS: The food probes sense temperatures in the last 1” of the probe (nearest the tip). There are three food probe warnings that can occur during a programmed batch. The warnings will flash the “red” ALARM light, the au- dible alarm will sound, and a printout noting a probe failure has occurred during completion of a batch. Should a probe failure occur during a programmed batch, the blast chiller unit will automatically switch to the remaining probes for that batch. If only one probe was programmed for the batch and fails, the blast chiller will automatically switch from the pro­grammed batch to constant chill for a 1 hour and 30 minute timed chill cycle. The three (3) warning condi­tions are:
a) Over T emperature - exposing the food probe to prod­uct that is 212
°F (100°C). An over temperature alarm
will occur if food temperature is above 212°F (100°C) at loading. Pressing the PRINT button will print all food probe temperatures, a defective or unplugged food probe will print 500°F (260°C).
b) Under T emperature - exposure to product with a tem­perature below -5°F (-21°C). Pressing the PRINT but- ton will print all food probe temperatures, a defective or unplugged food probe will print -99°F (-73°C).
c) Food Probe Open Circuit - should the food probe fail or become unplugged creating an open circuit, it will sound the alarm. Pressing the PRINT button will print all food probe temperatures, a defective or shorted food probe will print -99°F (-73°C).
