INTRODUCTION These display cases were designed and tested using the following industry standards: ASHRAE Standard 72-2014 — Method of Testing Commercial Refrigerators and Freezers (ANSI Approved) AHRI 1200 — Performance Rating of Commercial Refrigerated Display Merchandisers and Storage Cabinets (ANSI Approved) ...
DAMAGE MUST BE NOTED AT TIME OF DELIVERY AND ALL CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES MUST BE FILED WITH THE TRANSPORTATION COMPANY - NOT WITH Zero Zone. The carrier will supply necessary report and claim forms.
INSTALLATION & OpERATION If you plan on using optional hat channel rails to raise the case height, place them under each pair of bases. The 3 and 4-door hat channel rails will be angled slightly to support the front and rear bases. See Figure 4 on page 22 See Figure 6I on page Place the required number of shims under each base or optional hat channel rails at each joint (front and back) to equal the highest point.
4 or 5-door cases with 4 1/2" bases. For low shipping height applications, Zero Zone has optional, expandable bases. As shipped, the base is 1 3/4" tall. It is attached with spacers that allow the base to slide away from the bottom of the case to create a gap that allows the use of a 1 1/2"...
Bumper and Kickplate A Zero Zone bumper is standard on all case models and should be installed at the bottom front of the case. Various bumper styles are available. See Figure 17 on page 33. The kickplate assembly is adjustable to compensate for uneven floors. The bumper end cap is factory-installed on bumpers for cases with end panels that do not include Euro trim.
UNDER CASE FLOOR CLEANING (NSF) The floor underneath your Zero Zone display case can be cleaned by following a few simple steps: Remove the fasteners that hold the bottom kick plate to the display case. The fasteners are accessed from the front of the unit.
Shelves Zero Zone manufactures many different styles of shelves, baskets, and product stops. The fully assembled shelves are installed in cases prior to shipping. The bottom wire racks and baskets are placed on the shelves for shipping. Solid shelves have three parts: a solid center section and two snap-in brackets.
CONDENSATE EVAPORATION SYSTEM Zero Zone remote cases can be equipped with an automatic condensate evaporation system. The system uses a pump and drain pan located behind the kickplate and a condensate evaporator pan mounted on the top of the case.
INSTALLATION & OpERATION AIR CURTAIN VELOCITY Air curtain velocity is affected by stocking levels, coil frost loads, temperature, and fan condition. Air velocity should be measured at the back edge of the discharge air honeycomb, at the center of the middle door in the case (other doors have slightly lower velocity). A typical low temp velocity reading is 400 to 500 feet per minute in a fully-packed low temp case, after the case has defrosted and pulled down to operating temperature.
After the system has been thoroughly evacuated of all moisture and non condensable gas, charge the system with the proper refrigerant, using “hi-side/low-side” charging techniques. Do not exceed UL low side pressure rating when pressure testing Zero Zone cases. Electrical...

INSTALLATION & OpERATION OPTIONAL ELECTRICAL WIRING Single Point Connection (Low Temp) The “single point” connection system is designed to reduce the time required to install and wire one display case with one condensing unit. Figure 29 on page 43. All of the display case controls, including the disconnect switch and the electronic case controls are installed behind the kickplate in the electrical enclosure and prewired.
Periodic defrosting to keep the coil free of frost is accomplished automatically by a time clock used in conjunction with an electric or hot gas defrost method. For best results, temperature termination of defrost is strongly recommended on Zero Zone cases. DEFROST SETTINGS AND CONTROLS Electric Defrost Frequency: One electric defrost per day is recommended.

The RHZC30 and RHZC30T door case has the probe located in the center/bottom of the coil. An adjustable defrost termination thermostat is an available option from Zero Zone. If the case is so equipped, the defrost termination temperature is 50°F. Contractor should verify the 50°F setting.
Page 20
Sizing and component selection depend on the type of defrost, size, and location of high side refrigeration system. Zero Zone freezers equipped for gas defrost consist of a side port distributor and a TXV check valve for coil defrost, and a suction line check valve to bypass hot gas to the serpentine coil.

INSTALLATION & OpERATION DEFROST HEATER ELEMENT On 30" door cases, one half of the U-shape heater is located on the front of the coil and the other half is located on the rear of the coil. . The electric wire leads are connected in the junction box behind the front kick rail. HEATER ELEMENT REMOVAL Front and Rear Heater Location (RHZC30 and RHZC30T) The U-shape defrost heater has one leg located on the front of the coil and one leg located on the rear of the coil.
Remove the front fasteners on the mullion and remove the back plastic of the mullion to access the heater. The case sill heater is located under the front metal strike plate below the door opening. Contact Zero Zone’s Service Department for instructions for servicing this heater.
