  • Page 4: Cellar Construction Guide

    Cellar Construction Guide This is only a guide and shall be considered as the minimum requirements. All interior walls, ceilings and floors shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R13 insulation. All exterior walls and ceiling shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R19 insulation.
  • Page 5: Features & Specifications

    Features and Specifications • WINE~MATE split wall-recessed cooling systems WM-1500~4500SSW and WM-1500~4500SSW-LA are designed to provide a cold environment between 50~65 °F with a humidity range within 50~70% RH for a properly insulated wine cellar. • These temperature and humidity ranges are optimized for long term storage of wine like that in natural caves.
  • Page 6 If the condensing unit will operate below 50°F, install a low CAUTION ambient condition kit. The cooling capacity is determined under 55°F cellar temperature, 75°F cellar ambient temperature and 90°F condensing unit ambient temperature, with R13 interior and NOTE R19 exterior insulations. Higher ambient temperatures or lower insulations will cause reducing capacity and the cellar temperature may not be maintained at 55°F.

How to adjust defrost settings In case there is excessive frost, the parameters FnC = C-y, idF = 4 and MdF = 20 can be used to avoid frost.
  • Page 11: Care Guide

    Care Guide In general, always unplug system or disconnect power while doing care. 1. Condenser Coil Cleaning • Clean the condenser coil regularly. Coil may need to be cleaned at least every 6 months. • Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean the coil when it is dusty or dirty.

    WINE~MATE split system is shipped as components and is ready for use only after a certified refrigeration technician has properly installed the system. Proper installation is critical. Vinotemp can only warrant the quality of the components. The installation and proper operation of the system must be warranted by the installer.

  • Page 23 Fig. 11 Condenser Fan Cycle Control 2) A fan speed control may be used to adjust the air flow to achieve the specified CFM. The fan will run from the minimum speed to full speed with the control knob at the lowest and highest speed position. To adjust the minimum speed, turn control knob to the lowest speed position, then rotate the setting (located on the side or front) clockwise to decrease the minimum speed or counter-clockwise to increase the minimum speed.
  • Page 24 8) If the superheat is high, check the subcooling first to see if the refrigerant charge is sufficient. If the charge is not sufficient, add more refrigerant (Liquid must always be charged into the hide side when the compressor runs). If the charge is good, then increase the evaporator suction pressure by turning the hex nut (5/16”) clockwise.
