Thermo Scientific Revco Slimline Value Freezers
5 Installation
Do not exceed the electrical and temperature ratings printed on
the dataplate located on the lower left side of the unit.
CAUTION!
Improper operation of the equipment
could result in dangerous conditions. To preclude
hazard and minimize risk, follow all instructions and
operate within the design limits noted on the dataplate.
5.1 Location
Install the unit in a level area free from vibration with a minimum
of six inches of space on the sides, rear, and top. Refer to
Section 5.4 for further instructions on leveling cabinets. Allow
enough clearance so that door or lid can swing open at least
90 degrees.
Do not position the equipment in direct sunlight or near heating
diffusers, radiators, or other sources of heat. The ambient
temperature range at the location must be 59 to 90°F
(15 to 32°C).
CAUTION!
To allow for proper air flow, a minimum
of six inches of clearance space is required behind the
freezer.
5.2 Wiring
CAUTION!
Connect the equipment to the correct
power source. Incorrect voltage can result in severe
damage to the equipment.
CAUTION!
For personal safety and trouble-free
operation, this unit must be properly grounded before
it is used. Failure to ground the equipment may cause
personal injury or damage to the equipment. Always
conform to the National Electrical Code and local
codes. Do not connect the unit to overloaded power
lines.
Your freezer is equipped with a service cord and plug designed to
connect it to a power outlet which delivers the correct voltage.
The plug is one of the three types shown in Figure 1. Supply
voltage must be within +10%, -5% of the freezer rated voltage.
These freezers are equipped with a standard built-in Voltage
Safeguard circuit to detect and adjust low line voltage.
CAUTION!
Never cut the grounding prong from the
service cord plug. If the prong is removed, the
warranty is invalidated.

5.3 Superinsulated Cabinet Construction
In SI models, the cabinet walls have a vacuum insulation core
encapsulated by a sealed film laminate and wrapped in Mylar.
CAUTION!
Never drill holes in or near the cabinet
walls. Drilling could damage the insulation and make
the unit inoperable.
5.4 Leveling
Before operating the freezer, be sure that it is level both front to
back and side to side.
