MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
CARE OF STAINLESS STEEL
1. The surface can be damaged by mechanical abrasion, hard
water deposits and chlorine:
a.NEVER use steel wool, wire brushes or metal scrapers to clean
the appliance. These will damage the surface.
b.Hard water deposits left behind when water is evaporated will
attack the surface and allow the stainless steel to rust.
c.Chlorides from chlorinated cleansers, calcium / lime / rust
removers (e.g. muriatic acid), even heavily chlorinated city water
will attack the surface and allow the stainless steel to rust.
d.DO NOT use any highly caustic cleaners. Use of highly caustic
cleaners will damage the surface.
e.LIMIT USE of strong caustic cleaners on warmers. Rinse
thoroughly with a vinegar and water solution to neutralize any
residue. Failure to do so may cause damage to the surface and
allow the stainless steel to rust.
f.Cleaners containing ammonia will attack the surface and allow
the stainless steel to rust.
2. Use the proper tools in the proper way to clean your Wells cold
pan.
a.Soft cloth and plastic scouring pads are safe to use on stainless
steel surfaces.
b.Stainless steel pads may be used ONLY IF the scrubbing motion
is in the direction of the visible grain. DO NOT use a circular
motion.
c.In the absence of visible grain, use only soft cloth or plastic
pads. Scrub only in a linear motion along the longest axis of the
equipment.
CAUTION:
PERSONAL
INJURY HAZARD
Disconnect appliance from
electrical power before
cleaning.
Wells refrigerated cold pans
are constructed of high quality
stainless steel. As long as
the stainless steel surface is
intact, the equipment will not
rust or corrode.
Recommendation:
A water softening device or a
cartridge-type ltration device
may be used to minimize lime
and calcium build-up.
3. Use only non-chloride and non-ammonia cleansers:
a.DO NOT use any cleanser listed as “chlorinated”.
b.DO NOT use any cleanser listing “ammonia” or “ammonium” in its
contents.
c.Contact your cleaning materials supplier for suitable alkaline
cleansers.
4. Keep your Wells cold pan clean. Clean frequently to avoid
build-up of hard stubborn stains and hard-to-remove deposits.
a.Rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water solution to neutralize
any residue.
b.For discoloration caused by using the warmer in dry operation,
use a cleaner made specically for stainless steel.
c.Wipe dry with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
d.Restore the surface by using a polishing product specically
DO NOT adjust the differential
settings of the refrigeration
system. Field adjustments
of the differential settings
must be made by qualied
refrigeration personnel only.
Unauthorized adjustment of
the differential settings will
void the warranty.
The temperature setting
of the NSF-7 Refrigerated
Cold Pan has been pre-set
at the factory to meet most
applications. An electronic
temperature control maintains
food temperature between
33ºF (.05°C) and 44ºF
(6.6°C).
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
RCP-100(ST) thru RCP-600(ST)
1. The temperature has been preset at the factory to meet most
applications.
2. If temperature adjustments are required, the pressure switch,
located on the condensing unit, is adjustable. Temperature
adjustment must be performed by a qualied refrigeration
personnel only.
3. Normal temperature setting would be 28ºF.
RCP-7100(ST) thru RCP-7600(ST)
The LCD Display provides a readout of the sensor temperature
during normal operation. Use the following to change the setpoint
temperature:
1. To start programming, press SET key once. This will access the
Fahrenheit/Celsius mode. The readout will show the current
status, either F (degrees Fahrenheit) or C (degrees Celsius).
Press either “up arrow” (é) or “down arrow” (ê) to toggle between
F and C designation.
2. Press SET again to access the setpoint. The LCD will display
the current setpoint, and the S1 annunciator will blink off and on
to indicate that control is in the setpoint mode.
Press either “up arrow” (é) to increase the setpoint, or “down
arrow” (ê) to decrease the setpoint to the desired temperature.
Factory setpoint is 21°F (-6°C).

3. Press the SET key again to access the differential. The LCD will
display the current differential, and the DIF1 annunciator will blink
off and on to indicate that control is in the differential mode.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT adjust the differential settings of the
refrigeration system. Field adjustments of the differential settings
must be made by qualied refrigeration personnel only.
Unauthorized adjustment of the differential settings will void the
warranty.
Press either “up arrow” (é) to increase the differential, or “down
arrow” (ê) to decrease the differential to the desired setting.
Factory differential is 3ºF (.
4. Press the SET key again to access the Heating / Cooling mode.
The LCD will display the current mode. Either “C1” for cooling or
“H1” for heating. The control must be set to C1 for proper
operation of the cold pan.
5. Press the SET key again to complete programming. Programming
ends automatically if no keys are pressed for 30 seconds. Any
settings that have been input to the control will be accepted at that
time.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT adjust the differential
settings of the refrigeration
system. Field adjustments
of the differential settings
must be made by qualied
refrigeration personnel only.
Unauthorized adjustment of
the differential settings will
void the warranty.
NOTE:
The controller has both
“heating” and “cooling”
modes. Heating mode is
not used on the RCP-series
units. The control must be set
to “cooling” (C1) for proper
operation of the cold pan.
