CHARACTERISTICS

WINEARM15

Weight of appliance 31 kg

Dimensions of appliance L908xD439xH316

Cut-out dimensions 890 x 428

Temperature setting preset to 12°C, adjustable between 4 and 15°C *

Max. outside temperature 35°C **

Cooling power 500 W at 15°C **

Electrical power supply 235V-50 Hz + 3 metre cable

Absorbed electrical power 400 W

The circuit breaker must be ≥ 16 Amps

* With insulation appropriate to the temperature and volume of the cellar.

** Since the power diminishes as a function of the outside temperature, the appliance might lose its capacity to
maintain 12°C if the outside temperature nears 35°C.

If the thermal safety function is triggered too frequently, this may damage the compressor prematurely. In all cases,
you should ensure the temperature of the evacuation room is not 35°C on a permanent basis. This high temperature
should furthermore be limited to summer seasons only.

1. CABINET LAYOUT

The conditioning unit is installed in the ceiling of the wine cabinet. To work correctly, the appliance evacuates the air
outside at approximately 20°C above the inlet temperature.

1.1. EVACUATION

The hot air produced by the conditioning unit must be correctly evacuated so that it is not reused for the cooling
function.

Maximum and non-permanent inlet temperature ≤ 35°C
Optimal inlet temperature ≈ 20°C

VENTILATED COOLING OR “NO FROST”

The benefits of ventilated cooling:

• No frost formation other than on the evaporator.

• Automatic defrost producing maximum refrigeration efficiency.

• Cold circulation improved by continuous air movement, no air stratification.

• Air circulation allows for rapid return to the preset temperature.

1.2. CABINET INSULATION

This is vital to ensure the efficient operation of the WINEMASTER
temperature and humidity stability. The table below (Choice of insulation) assists with determining the type and

thickness of the necessary insulation as a function of the outside volume of the cellar and the WINEMASTER
and based on an interior temperature of 12°C.

INSULATION CONTINUITY

The insulation elements should preferably be assembled:

• By “tongue and groove” panels, or

• By bonding the panels together

 OBJECTIVE: To prevent the unwanted entry of heat and moisture which would damage their tightness.

To prevent moisture migration in the cellar, a vapour barrier should be fitted at the cabinet installation site.
