1.2 General Recommendations
Intended Use
Helmer freezers are intended for the storage of blood products and other medical and scientic products.
General Use
Allow freezer to come to room temperature before switching power on.
During initial startup, high temperature alarm may sound while freezer reaches operating temperature.
CAUTION
Do not remove the cover from the condensate evaporator tray.
Initial Loading
Allow the freezer to reach room temperature before powering on. Allow chamber temperature to stabilize at the setpoint before
storing product.
Note
Do not overload top drawer, basket, or shelf such that airow from the unit cooler is obstructed.
Product Loading Guidelines
When loading your freezer, take care to observe the following guidelines:
♦ Never load freezers beyond capacity.
♦ Always store items within shelves, drawers or baskets.
♦ Temperature uniformity is maintained by air circulation, which could be impeded if unit is overlled, particularly at the top
or back. Ensure proper clearance is provided below the fan.
Note
Products stacked against back wall may obstruct air ow and affect performance of unit.
