LECTRICAL ONNECTIONS ( SEE FIGURES Power: The ThermoRack 800 AC power inlet is an IEC320-C20 socket. Plug the line cord provided into this socket and then into the appropriate power source. The standard line cord provided has an L6- 15P plug for a 208/240 VAC 15 Amp 60 Hz outlet. To ensure safe operation of the unit, it is important to ensure that the AC power cord is properly grounded.
3.4 C OOLANT Fill the ThermoRack 800 with coolant using the following procedure: 1. Remove tank cap 2. Carefully pour in coolant until the level reaches “Max”. 3. Turn on the Thermorack, adding coolant as required to maintain the WARNING tank level just below maximum.
TART Note: In order to avoid injury or damage, operators must only use this product in the manner specified below. Start-up the ThermoRack 800 and ensure priming of the pump, follow these steps: 1) Connect USB signal cable (optional). 2) Connect the drain hose (14-13851-1) to the process outlet WARNING fitting.
HILLER ECTION _____________________________________________________ PERATION The ThermoRack 800 is operated via the control panel located on the front panel. The control panel has a 16-character LCD display and four input keys: UP, DOWN, ENTER, and START/STOP. These keys work as follows: Action Pressing the UP key raises the parameter value displayed.

ROCEDURE 1. Connect one end of the drain hose with the Colder Products PLCD2204 coupling insert provided with the ThermoRack 800 into the front drain fitting (see figure 3A) and place the other end into a container with at least a 3 liter capacity.
Other issues: No Display: If the liquid crystal display does not display characters upon turning on the Thermorack 800, call SSCS for a RMA number to return the unit for replacement of the temperature controller Temperature Control Poor: If no other alarms are present, poor temperature control can indicate blocked airflow or that the TE cooling/heating engine is not receiving power or has failed.
________________________________________ OMMUNICATIONS The Thermorack 800 comes with a USB serial communications capability that can receive a remote set point, return the current temperature, and signal an alarm has occurred. Communicating with the chiller via USB with requires installing a Silicon Labs CP210x driver on the host computer. Call SSCS at 845- 296-1300 ext.
