Pre-Installation Test - iceqube EX series Operation And Installation Manual

Before installing the Ice Qube system on your enclosure, Ice Qube recommends that the unit operates for
20-30 minutes to ensure it is functioning properly. Although the Ice Qube TMS has been tested at the
factory, internal damage may have occurred during shipping which may have not been apparent during the
unpacking inspection.
1. Place the system on a solid base such as a workbench or table. Ensure that the weight of the unit
will be supported. Be sure to allow adequate space for airflow. The cold air supply stream and the
heat rejection air stream must not be restricted.
2. Check that the warm air system filter(s) is(are) in place.
3. Check the data tag for proper electrical requirements. The data tag lists the design voltage and
amperage requirements of the system. Verify that the electrical supply where the system will be
connected has the proper capacity. After noting the above, connect power from a properly
grounded electrical connection. The use of an extension cord is not recommended. See Electrical
Installation Instruction for wiring details. (Page 8)
Note: If any unusual noise or vibration is present during the testing procedure, immediately
disconnect the power and inspect the exterior of the unit for the cause of noise or vibration. If
necessary, Contact Ice Qube immediately to determine cause of the noise/vibration.
4. The air conditioner will not operate if the room air temperature is below the set point. Factory set
point: 77°F (25°C)
5. Note: Adjust the set-point to a temperature lower than the room temperature in order for the air
conditioner to operate. Refer to Thermostat Operation to change the factory set points. (Page

6. With the compressor and both blowers functioning, allow the unit to operate for 20 to 30 minutes.
This will provide sufficient time for the vapor compression system to achieve equilibrium.
Measure the cool air outlet temperature with an accurate thermometer. For room temperatures
above 70°F (22°C), the cool air outlet temperature should be at least 10°F (6°C) colder than the air
inlet temperature. In areas of high humidity or ambient temperature below 70°F (22°C), the
temperature difference may be less than 10°F (6°C).
7. After completing the above check point, the Ice Qube TMS is ready to be mounted to your
enclosure.
