English Thank you for choosing a Gram Commercial CO product. This manual is made to aid the following: • The installer when integrating the Gram CO product into a remote CO installation. • The service technician when servicing the cabinet.
Location When receiving the product, check the packaging material for damage. If any damage occurs at the packaging material, it should be considered if the product might have been damaged too. If the damage is substantial, please contact your dealer. The transport pallet can be removed by loosening the screws that fasten the pallet to the product (see the below illustration).

The set-up place must be level and horizontal. It is very important to adjust the legs of the cabinet in order to make sure that the product stands level and upright. In order to avoid tensions in the cabinet construction, it is crucial to make sure that all legs make proper contact with the floor, so that the stress to the cabinet is distributed evenly.
As a minimum, servicing and troubleshooting must be carried out by a skilled service technician knowing the installed controller and experienced in servicing a CO cabinet. Gram Commercial A/S Aage Grams Vej 1, 6500 Vojens Denmark CVR nr. 12 00 66 32 Type...
How to connect the IC product to the CO system These products have been designed, constructed and built to minimize the time which the installer must use – installation. On cabinets referred to as IC, with a built- before and after connecting them to the remote CO in controller (either Danfoss AKCC 550A or Carel MPXpro), every electrical component is already connected to the controller and the controller is configured accordingly.

On PLUS, TWIN and EURO products the pipe ends for connecting to a remote system are in the top compartment (shown on the below fig. 1 – 3). Both pipes are clearly marked in order to avoid connecting the cabinet wrongly. Both connection pipes coming out of the cabinet are 3/8”. The pressure transmitter, which must be connected to the suction line, by the installer, is lying in the top compartment.

Fig. 4 Rear view showing pipe connections on ECO MIDI cabinets Drain water on MIDI products These cabinets are delivered with a re-evaporation tray with an electrical heater (60 Watt) and a float switch which does control the operation of the heater related to water level inside the tray. This system is positioned inside the bottom compartment of the cabinet on the right side seen from the front.

IMPORTANT! People installing these products, should have the right skill level. This does relate to all aspects. (physical installation as well as adapting the controller settings of the chosen controller, in order to avoid problems or potentially dangerous situations) Always make sure that the cabinet is properly leveled when positioned on the installation location. This should be done prior to connecting the pipe work to the remote CO system.
As a minimum the re-evaporation system must must not be connected to power in the controller box. Connection diagrams for CO cabinets In order to ease the planning/positioning of pipe work, external drain work and electrical installations related to installing the Gram CO products, the drawings on the next four pages have been created.
In terms of knowing the Gram factory settings which have been made to the controller installed, the following appendixes have been added at the end of this document (see table of contents) •...

Troubleshooting Noise: • If abnormal noise occurs, request service assistance. • Operating sounds due to air distribution from the interior/evaporator fan are normal. • If sheet metal parts, front panels or panels in front of the “compressor” compartment are noisy due to vibrations, these might be open. Close the panels. Frosting inside compartment: •...
Some of the food is frozen: • Cabinet too packed with foods - air inlet/outlet blocked. • Temperature set point adjusted too low. • Evaporator fan might be defective. Condensation around the door: • Ambient humidity too high. • The door is not closed tightly. •...
Do not use sharp or pointed objects to accelerate the defrosting process. Defrost water PLUS/TWIN/EURO cabinets The product produces water during defrosting, which is led into a defrost water pipe going to the rear bottom of the cabinet. The cabinet is mounted with a re-evaporation tray, with a heating element underneath the cabinet as a standard.
Cleaning Insufficient cleaning will cause the product not to work at optimum performance, or eventually it can result in a higher failure rate. Before cleaning, the product main power supply should always be disconnected. Do not flush the product with water, do not use water jet or steam hose as this may cause short-circuits in the electrical system.
