  • Page 4: Cellar Construction Guide

    Cellar Construction Guide This is only a guide and shall be considered as the minimum requirements. All interior walls, ceilings and floors shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R13 insulation. All exterior walls and ceiling shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R19 insulation.
  • Page 5: Features & Specifications

    Features and Specifications  WINE~MATE split through-ceiling cooling systems WM-2500~4500SSO and WM-2500~4500SSO-LA are designed to provide a cold environment between 50~65 °F with a humidity range within 50~70% RH for a properly insulated wine cellar.  These temperature and humidity ranges are optimized for long term storage of wine like that in natural caves.
  • Page 6 If the condensing unit will operate below 50°F, install a low CAUTION ambient condition kit. The cooling capacity is determined under 55°F cellar temperature, 75°F cellar ambient temperature and 90°F condensing unit ambient temperature, with R13 interior and NOTE R19 exterior insulations. Higher ambient temperatures or lower insulations will cause reducing capacity and the cellar temperature may not be maintained at 55°F.

Parameter Programming 1) Press and hold the SET + keys until the “°C” or “°F” LED starts flashing, then release the keys. 2) Press and hold again the SET + keys until the Pr2 label is displayed, then release the keys.
  • Page 10 7. How to calibrate the air probe If the actual cellar temperature differs from the setting temperature, set parameter ot = actual cellar temperature minus set-point. 8. How to adjust defrost settings In case there is excessive frost, the parameters FnC = C-y, idF = 4 and MdF = 20 can be used to avoid frost.
  • Page 11: Care Guide

    Care Guide In general, always unplug system or disconnect power while doing care. 1. Condenser Coil Cleaning  Clean the condenser coil regularly. Coil may need to be cleaned at least every 6 months.  Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean the coil when it is dusty or dirty.

  • Page 15: Installer's Instructions

    WINE~MATE split system is shipped as components and is ready for use only after a certified refrigeration technician has properly installed the system. Proper installation is critical. Vinotemp can only warrant the quality of the components. The installation and proper operation of the system must be warranted by the installer.
  • Page 16 Parts not included: Liquid line copper tubing Suction line copper tubing Liquid and suction line locations may differ from that they are CAUTION shown below, please check on the units for proper installations. To prepare rough-in, leave minimum 4” clearances for electrical NOTE wiring and refrigeration piping.

Temperature Controller and Air Probe Location 1) The temperature controller can be mounted either inside or outside the wine cellar, but the air probe must be located inside. 2) The air probe shall be located in the wine cellar 5 ft above the floor or the air return area, but it shall not be located in the air supply area or other areas where air is not circulated.
  • Page 19 2) Air supply shall be unobstructed minimum 12”; air return shall be unobstructed minimum 6”. 3) There is a gravity drain system, so the unit shall be installed level or with a slight slope downward the drain connection and the drain line shall be installed slope down toward the drain.

Front Position: Storage operation, liquid or suction line connection is closed. Middle Position: Installation operation, all ports are open. The recommended initial charges are used for reference only, always use the superheat, subcooling and pressure readings to charge refrigerant properly.
