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. Casters or legs are boxed
inside to prevent damage.

Upon delivery carefully inspect your Traulsen unit for
shipping damage. If any is detected, note it on the
carrier’s Bill Of Lading and save all the crating
materials. File a freight claim immediately. If concealed
damage is discovered at installation, contact the
carrier and file a freight claim then. Under no
circumstances may any damaged unit(s) be returned
to Traulsen without proper prior authorization.

III. INSTALLATION

NOTE: If the unit is installed or stored near any
incomplete concrete or tile work see the note at the end
of section VI.b

III. a – LOCATION & CLEARANCE:
Select a location for your Traulsen VPS unit away from
extreme heat or cold. These units are designed to

operate in an environment of 86°F (30°C) or less.

Locate the unit so that air drafts (such as heat, A/C or
ventilation) do not blow on or over the rail area.

The condensing unit of your Traulsen VPS unit MUST
have adequate air circulation. Therefore, do not store
anything within of 31” of the condensing unit louvers
(located on the unit front). Allow enough clearance
between the unit and the side wall so that the doors

may open a minimum of 90°. Standard rail models

require at least 61-3/8” vertical clearance (16-1/2” above
the unit) to allow the rail cover to open completely (see
figures 1 & 2).

IV. FIRST TIME START-UP V. DAILY OPERATION

If this equipment has been stored or shipped in an
ambient colder than room temperature, YOU MUST
ALLOW THE COMPRESSOR TO WARM UP TO ROOM
TEMPERATURE PRIOR TO CONNECTING TO THE
POWER SUPPLY. This could take several hours.

IV. a - POWER SWITCH:
The power switch is located at main electrical box
behind the louver panel and is shipped from the
factory in the OFF position.

IV. b - CORD & PLUG:
All self-contained VPS models are supplied with a cord
& NEMA three-prong grounding plug attached. It is
shipped coiled at the bottom of the compressor
compartment, secured by a nylon strip. Plug the power
cord into the proper NEMA receptacle then turn the
power switch ON.

IV. c - DEFROST TIMER & TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
After the unit is plugged in and turned on, set the
defrost timer by turning the small knob (near the outer
edge of the large dial) clockwise until the correct time
of day on the large dial lines up with the TIME pointer.
Defrost times are set from the factory at 10am, 2pm,
8pm, 2am and 6am. Refer to section “VII. f” for more
info (see figure 7).

V. a - PANS:
Standard rail VPS models are designed to operate with
full, half or third size pans without the use of adapter
bars. Other fractional size pans can be used with
optional adapter bars available from Traulsen. (see
section “X. b” for more info).

Jumbo rail VPS models are designed to operate with
full size pans without the use of adapter bars. Other
fractional size pans can be used with optional adapter
bars available from Traulsen. (see section “X. b” for
more info).

Use only stainless steel or aluminum food pans no more
than 4” deep in order to maintain product temperatures
within the current NSF Standard 7 guidelines

SETTING UP THE RAIL:

V. b ­Install pans in all pan spaces in the rail. Rest each pan
evenly on the front and back support ledges. Do not
use uneven or bent pans, as these will allow
circulating cold air to escape.

Allow the unit to reach operating temperature before
loading any food product. Load only refrigerated
product @ 36

o

F or below.

All pan spaces should be filled, even if some pans are
empty (even during nighttime storage).

When not in constant use, the VPS rail covers should
be kept closed over the pans.

Fig. 7

Defrost Time Clock

NOTE: The defrost time clock will have to be reset to
the current time if the unit loses power or the Power
switch is turned off for any significant amount of time.

Temperature is controlled electronically and needs no
adjustment in normal use. Reprogramming is not
necessary even if the power is interrupted.

V. c - LOADING THE UNIT BASE:
When loading product into the base take care that the
evaporator fans, located at the top of the compartment,
are not obstructed. Secure all paper and plastic wrap
to prevent it being drawn into the fans. Keep the doors
closed except when loading or removing product.

V. d - CLOSING DOWN THE RAIL AT NIGHT:
Food product may be stored in the rail overnight if
needed. Cover the entire rail with plastic wrap prior to
closing the rail covers over the pans.

VI. ROUTINE CLEANING

Use only cleaning products designed for use on stainless steel in conjunction with the proper tools to retain the
like-new appearance of your Traulsen refrigeration product. Occasional use of a commercial stainless steel
polish, such as “Sheila Shine,” will help protect the stainless steel surface. Follow the directions on the spray
can for proper use.

VI. a - CLEANING THE RAIL AREA:
Remove all food pans and rail inserts for cleaning
separately. Wipe out the rail area being careful not to
wipe debris into any of the raised openings in the rail
bottom. These are air discharge and air returns for the
VPS system, and must be kept clean, clear and open
for proper operation.

VI. b - CLEANING THE CABINET:
Remove the cutting board and crumb cans for cleaning
separately.

Clean all stainless steel surfaces frequently and
thoroughly with mild soap and plenty of water, followed
by a clean water rinse. Wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
Keeping the unit clean and dry will minimize the risk of
rust and corrosion. Remove food spills before they dry
and harden. The salt and acid in many foods will
promote corrosion of the stainless steel if it is left in
place too long.

Use a nylon brush or scouring pad only if necessary,
scrubbing in the same direction as the grain of the steel.
Don’t use bleach or harsh abrasives, as both will
promote corrosion. You can use a 1% ammonia
solution or a mixture of baking soda and water for
stubborn residue. Always follow any cleaning with a
clean water rinse then wipe dry with a clean cloth.

VI. b ­stainless steel so badly that it is difficult or impossible
to restore to its original appearance.

VI. c - SHELVES & SHELF PINS:
The interior shelves are mounted on shelf pins and are
easily removable for cleaning. Lift the shelf off the shelf
pins, tilting up slightly on one side to allow it to slide
through the door opening.

The shelf pins can be unscrewed by hand if
necessary. Reinstall the pins in their correct
locations, then hand tighten securely. Do not over
tighten.

VI. d ­All jumbo rail VPS models are supplied standard with a
sliding rail cover. To remove this for cleaning, hold the
cover slightly above horizontal, making sure the lower
edge of the “hook” at the rear of the cover clears the
retaining rod, then pull sharply. To reinstall the cover,
place the rear of the cover on top of the retaining rod (it
will wedge between the rod and the top of the unit),
and then bump it into place.

CLEANING THE CABINET (cont’d):

SLIDING RAIL COVER:

Clean all interior surfaces, including the door gaskets
and the gray vinyl breaker strips around the door
openings in the same way. All interior fittings are
removable without tools to facilitate cleaning.

Never use mild steel scrapers, tools or steel wool on
the stainless steel cabinet. In addition to scratching
the surface, they will leave microscopic residue that
will cause rust. Even the cleaning or drying cloth, if
previously used on mild steel (other than stainless) can
leave a residue that promotes rust. Always use a
cloth.

Clean the cabinet exterior thoroughly after every time
the floor is mopped to minimize damage from harsh
floor-cleaning chemicals.

NOTE
Muriatic or Hydrochloric acid is sometimes used to
clean concrete or tile work and can severely damage
the unit, even if it doesn’t make direct contact! Fumes
from an open container in the same room can discolor

clean

VII. SERVICE & MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

VII. a - CLEANING THE CONDENSER:
Clean the condenser at least monthly (more often if
necessary) to insure long service life. Keeping the
condenser free of lint and dust will allow the
refrigeration system to operate at peak efficiency and
minimize the risk of premature failure.

To clean the condenser, open or remove the front
louver assembly then turn the Power switch OFF. If the
louvered door is not hinged, lift the door out of the lower
cradle and then slide it down and out of the top bracket.
Vacuum and brush any dirt, lint or dust from the finned
condenser coil, taking care not to bend the thin
aluminum fins.

VII. b - LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT (if equipped):
Turn the power switch OFF, remove the light cover and
unscrew the light bulb. Replace with a bulb of identical
type (115V 40-Watt T-6 1/2 Intermediate Base Clear
Refrigerator Lamp) and reinstall the light cover.

VII. c - GASKET REPLACEMENT :
Allow the new gasket to warm up to room temperature
before unfolding it. Soak the gasket in warm water if
necessary to speed up the warming process. Open (or
remove) the door and carefully pull the old gasket out
of the retainer. Clean the gasket retainer groove and
the area under the gasket. Start in one corner and push
the tongue of the new gasket into the groove for about
3 inches in each direction. Repeat with the other three
corners. The new gasket may appear too large at this
point. Using a rubber mallet, tap on the face of the
gasket to work the remainder of the tongue into the
retainer, starting at the corners and working toward the
middle (see figure 8)

VII. d - DOOR & HINGE REMOVAL:
Remove the hinge cover from both hinges. On the lower
hinge insert a 3/32” pin punch into one of the holes in
the spring retainer. Rotate the retainer clockwise
slightly and remove the locking pin. Allow the punch
to come to rest against the hinge body where the
locking pin was. Insert another 3/32” punch into one
of the holes in the spring retainer and rotate clockwise
slightly so the first punch can be removed. Repeat until
there is no tension on the spring. Grip the upper spring
retainer with Vise-Grips and push it straight down, then
out of the hinge. Be careful not to lose the flat washer
above the upper spring retainer, or the shoulder
bushing below the lower spring retainer. The screws
that secure the hinge to the cabinet and the hinge to
the door are all now accessible (see figure 9).

Fig. 9

Door Hinge

Reinstall in reverse order, first hinges to the door, then
door & hinge assembly to the cabinet. Install the spring
assist parts in the lower door hinge in order from the
bottom up: shoulder bushing, lower spring retainer
(with holes), spring, upper spring retainer and flat
washer. Grip the upper spring retainer with Vise-Grips
and push it straight down, then in and over the pin in
the hinge assembly. Use the two 3/32” punches and
the holes in the lower spring retainer to rotate the spring
clockwise approximately half a turn before inserting the
locking pin. The door should open past 900 and close
completely from any position.

VII. SERVICE & MAINTENANCE INFORMATION (cont’d)

VII. e - FRONT WORK SURFACE REMOVAL :
To facilitate transport through narrow doorways all
Jumbo Rail VPS models are supplied standard with a
removable front work surface (see figure 10).

WARNING: Excess weight hazard. Use two or more
people and to remove and reinstall. Failure to do so
can result in damage to the unit and/or injury.

1) Remove the side cover (held in place by two screws)
from each side.

2) Remove the screw from each side.

3) Remove the screws under the work surface, above
the louver and hinged doors.

4) Support the work surface securely then remove the
screws from the vertical lip at the rear of the work
surface.

5) Lift the work surface up and away from the cabinet.
Reinstall in reverse order and seal the perimeter with
silicone.

VII. f - DEFROST TIMER:
In normal operation the defrost timer only needs to be
set on startup and after each power loss. Rotate the
small knob (near the outer edge of the large dial)
clockwise until the correct time of day on the large dial
is opposite the TIME pointer. Pins that initiate each
defrost cycle are set at the factory at 2am, 6am, 10am,
2pm and 8pm. If your operation requires different
defrost times simply relocate one or more of the pins
(around the outer edge of the large dial) to the
appropriate time. Leave four hours minimum time
between pins. A minimum of five (5) defrost cycles are
required per day. Defrost is terminated by a non­adjustable temperature-activated switch located in the
evaporator housing. The bronze pointer on the inner
dial controls the time-activated backup termination and
should not be changed from the factory setting of 30
minutes.

Remove the stainless
steel side brackets
from each side.

IX. OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES

Follow these simple guidelines for proper VPS operation:

• Keep the condenser clean. Don’t obstruct the airflow.

• Reset the defrost timer to the proper time of day upon startup after any power loss or

shutdown.

• Rail inserts must be in place (under pans) before loading any pans.

• Use only 4” deep stainless steel or aluminum pans.

• All pan spaces should be filled any time the unit is running, even if some pans are empty.

• Keep the room temperature at 86°F (30°C) or less.

• Do not allow air drafts (such as heat, A/C or ventilation) to blow on or over the rail area.

This will disrupt the air blanket over the product area, resulting in poor holding
temperatures.

• Rail covers should be closed over the rail as much as possible.

• Product should be loaded into the rail at a maximum temperature of 36°F. The VPS unit

was not designed to chill warm product, but to hold refrigerated product at a safe
temperature.

• Keep the area around the evaporator fans clear.

• When cleaning the rail area, do not wipe debris into the raised openings in the rail

bottom. These are air discharge and air returns for the VPS system, and must be kept
clean, clear and open.

X. PAN CAPACITIES

X. a - THE VPS SYSTEM:
The Venturi Plenum System (VPS) pizza prep tables are
designed to keep all foods fresh, at an even
temperature, without freezing. The VPS system
accomplishes this task by surrounding product with cold
air top to bottom and on all sides without drying the
ingredients. This extends shelf life, eliminating the need
to stir products or rotate pans. It has the added benefit
of eliminating cleanup associated with the frost and
condensation found in “wrapped rail” (cold wall type)
designs. The Standard 12” and Jumbo 20” front-to-back
raised rail places pans in full view, where they are easy
to use and can be completely filled, reducing labor.

X. b - PANS:
The standard rail (12” front to back) VPS models are all
designed to accommodate either full size (12” x 20”),
half or third size pans without the use of adapter bars
(pans supplied by others). See below for individual model
pan capacities.
