SKOPE Reflex Underbench Fridge and Freezer
Refrigeration
Cartridge
Assembly
The refrigeration cartridge is an end-mounted, electronically controlled removable cartridge.
The electronic controller and electrics panel (including light power supply) is matched to the
cabinet, and must be left with the cabinet when exchanging the cartridge. Replacement spare
part cartridges are not supplied with controller and electrics panel.
For safety and compliance, only repair the cartridge with SKOPE-supplied parts made
specifically for this cabinet. Other parts may appear suitable, but may not be approved or safe
for use in an appliance with hydrocarbon refrigerant.
The cartridge must only be used on a SKOPE hydrocarbon-compliant cabinet. Refer to the
cabinet rating label to determine if the cabinet is suitable for use with a hydrocarbon cartridge.
The rating label must state refrigerant as R290. If the label states a different refrigerant, or
does not state a refrigerant, it is not suitable for a hydrocarbon cartridge.
For servicing or transportation, the refrigeration cartridge unplugs and lifts off the cabinet.
Some minor servicing can be performed without removing the refrigeration cartridge.
The model and serial number are both printed on the cartridge rating/serial number label
attached to the panel above the condenser coil.
Different fridge and freezer cartridges are used across different models, and cartridge spare
parts vary between different cartridges. Refrigeration system pipe routing varies between
different model releases.
Defrost Cycle Electric defrosting is used for both fridges and freezers. Defrost parameters vary depending
on product type, and can be reviewed in the SCS Connect Field app.
WARNING
The hydrocarbon cartridge must only be used on an
hydrocarbon compliant cabinet.
