Description of the unit
The SB series includes air-cooled or water-cooled (optional) condensing units built on the basis of the single-
block principle. They consist of:

Operation
SB single blocks
(Hydrocarbon R290 type) at low pressure in a heat exchanger (evaporator). The resulting vapour is brought again
into the liquid state by mechanical compression at a higher pressure, followed by cooling in another heat
exchanger (condenser).
The compressor is semihermetic, with reciprocating motion, supplied with single-phase or three-phase power.
Defrost takes place automatically in pre-set cycles; manual defrost is also possible.

Handling
The unit can be handled by lifting and transport means.
W ARNI NG
M ak e sure that no one is in transit in the operating area of the lifting/ transport m eans to
prevent any possible accidents to people.
I f the unit is in a w ooden case or crate, sling the pack ing properly before handling it.
Lifting speed shall be such as not to m ak e the pack ed unit oscillate dangerously and
possibly fall.
1. a condensing unit placed outside the cold room;
2. an evaporator placed in an insulated box and installed outside the cold
room;
3. an electric connection box on the condensing unit;
4. a wall-mounted remote control panel.
are compression units where cold is produced by vaporizing a liquid refrigerant
