    Receiving, Inspecting and Unpacking the Wine Guardian Unit IMPORTANT This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
  • Page 9: General Description

    General Description IMPORTANT Design and specifications are subject to change without notice The Wine Guardian cooling unit is a professional grade, American-manufactured, split two-piece climate control unit designed specifically for the storage of wine at cellar temperatures. It is designed for easy installation and operation.
  • Page 10: Wine Guardian Fan Coil Unit

    Wine Guardian Fan Coil Unit The Wine Guardian fan coil unit meets its rated capacities for total BTU/H and CFM (watts and M for 50Hz) at design cellar conditions and external static pressures. The fan coil unit is capable of rated CFM (M /h for 50Hz) against the static pressure imposed by recommended ductwork.
  • Page 11: Accessories And Optional Equipment

    IMPORTANT The air exhaust from the condensing unit is hot and will be 25 to 35 degrees F or 15°C to 20°C above the entering temperature. The condensing units are rated for a maximum temperature of 115 degrees F(46°C). The condensing units should be installed in a well-ventilated area to ensure proper air flow across the condenser coil and to limit short cycling.

  • Page 34: Installing The Fan Coil Unit

    Installing the Fan Coil Unit Wine Guardian fan coil units are typically installed indoors located near the cellar to minimize the duct runs. Each unit is provided with one entering or return air inlet and five possible supply air outlets. A maximum cumulative total length of flexible ductwork, for both supply and return ducts (including bends) of 25 feet (7.62 meters) is recommended.
  • Page 35: Ceiling Mounting

    Ceiling Mounting Construct a structurally sound, level platform to place the unit on when hanging it from the ceiling joists. The Wine Guardian is NOT designed to be suspended from the top of the unit; it must be supported from the bottom. Place the unit on a platform to ensure that the unit is supported on all four corners.

  • Page 40: Installing The Condensate Drain Connection

    Installing the Condensate Drain Connection The Wine Guardian unit provides dehumidification for the inside of the wine cellar. It cools the air down to the dew point corresponding to the temperature setpoint of the remote interface controller. If the vapor barrier of the wine cellar is poorly constructed or excess moisture is in the basement, the unit may remove excessive amounts of moisture from the wine cellar.
  • Page 41: Wiring The Fan Coil Unit For Power

    Wiring the Fan Coil Unit for Power DANGER ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH The electrical outlet and wiring installation must meet the national and local building codes Match the electrical wiring to the cord provided on the Wine Guardian. Provide dedicated circuit and wiring for the system.
  • Page 42: Installing The Condensing Unit

    Installing the Condensing Unit • Condensing units are factory assembled with an aluminum outdoor enclosure for protection from the elements. • A minimum of 12 inches (30cm) is required around the perimeter of the condensing unit for proper airflow across the coil, and to provide an adequate discharge airflow path. Any obstructions to this airflow will result in a decrease in performance, and possibly premature failure due to a buildup of high pressure within the system.

  • Page 46: Leak Checking And Evacuation Process

    Leak Checking and Evacuation Process • Pressurize and leak test the interconnecting lines, including the fan coil unit, fittings, and brazed joints using the intended operating refrigerant, nitrogen, or dry air for leak testing. A pressure equal to the low side test pressure marked on the unit nameplate is recommended for leak testing.
  • Page 47 Fig 1 Fig 2 Fig. 3 • The condensing unit needs to be hard-wired for the rated high voltage to be brought to the factory-installed contactor in chassis cabinet to the line side (L1 & L3) of the contactor. Use table 1 to identify the minimum recommended AWG, USE COPPER WIRE ONLY. Run a ground lead to be connected to the condensing unit Ground lead/LUG.
  • Page 48: Refrigerant Charging

    Refrigerant Charging NOTE: Models DS, and WGS utilize a Headmaster control valve to control head pressure at low ambient applications, therefore require a specific initial charging procedure as outlined below. Determining the amount of charge – Low ambient and extreme low ambient (XLA) systems - When “refrigerant side”...
  • Page 49 Charging of Systems with Sporlan Head Pressure Control in temperatures below 70° F (21°C) (After normal evacuation procedures): NOTE: When charging in ambient below 70°F (21°C) the procedure is very critical. Be sure to adhere to the following steps. Failure to do so will result in overcharging the system 1.
  • Page 50: Superheat

    If you are not sure how to measure superheat or sub-cooling: Superheat • Get an accurate suction line temperature on the suction line as close to the compressor inlet as possible. At same time, attach a compound pressure gauge set to the system so as to read the low side suction pressure at the suction service valve port (back seated valve stem to allow un-restricted refrigerant flow from evaporator back to the compressor).
  • Page 51: Split System Operations Chart

    Examples of adjustments: (Less than 25’/7.62 meters): If a WGS40 system that is only 15’/4.57 meters (10’/3.05 meters less than factory charge baseline from table above) in total length. At .50oz/foot & .0465kg/meter adjustment, that equals a decrease in total system charge from factory baseline of 5oz /.142kg. Now a total system charge of 53oz/1.498kg.
