For efficient refrigeration performance, the
condenser radiator and front and rear louvers
must be kept clean. Failure to do this will lead
to a build-up of dust, and restricted airflow will
prevent the unit from working properly.
The compressor may overheat and the cabinet
temperature may rise.
Regular vacuuming will prevent a build-up of
dust and fluff, however, the condenser and
radiator should be cleaned with compressed air
during the mandatory three monthly service
checks by a refrigeration engineer.
Be very careful not to bend or damage the soft
aluminium fins when vacuuming the radiator. If
the fins are flattened, airflow will be restricted
and overheating will again result.
The controller must NOT be tampered with by an unqualified person.
The indicated temperature will be lower than the air temperature inside the
cabinet, because the refrigeration compressor is controlled in response to the
exit air temperature from the evaporator cooling coil.
The controller can also display fault messages, caused by condenser
overheating or low refrigerant gas pressure.
