Mount the unit in the upright position close to the ceiling inside the cellar. ・ As warm air rises to the top of the cellar, the cooling unit pulls the warm air through the evaporator coil and removes the heat from the warm air. Once cooled, the cold air is discharged from the front of the cooling unit and circulates through the cellar.

As shown above, the drain line should drop, then rise (but stay below the height of the fitting), and then drop again into a drain or bucket. Then, fill the trap with water. The condensate trap will allow any excess moisture inside the cooling unit to overcome the static pressure and flow out of the drain line.

racks. If measuring liquid, the probe in a bottle with water and rubbing alcohol (10- 20%), use the rubber stopper to seal the bottle, and place the bottle in the racks. If the bottle probe is used to measure air temperatures, the differential (HY) on the cooling unit should be set to “4”.

Summary Keep in mind the following guidelines before purchasing a wine cooling unit from CellarPro: ・ If the cellar it too large for the cooling unit, the cooling unit will be unable to maintain proper, even temperatures throughout the cellar.
These conditions include steady, cool temperatures, high humidity, minimal vibration and light, and clean air. The settings on your CellarPro cooling unit have been preset and optimized by the factory. Before changing any settings below, we recommend waiting 14 days to allow the cooling unit to “break in.”...

Energy Saver Buttons To activate and deactivate the “Energy Saver” mode, press the “Energy Saver” button. The “Energy Saver” indicator light will turn on when the cooling unit is in “Energy Saver” mode. In “Energy Saver” mode, the Minimum Set Point increases 4°F and the Temperature Differential is unchanged.

CellarPro Thermostat Upgrade Networkable Overview Cooling units with the Networkable Thermostat (“NT”) Upgrade are configured with a unit‐ mounted temperature display that provides troubleshooting, operational safety controls and defrost cycles. The upgrade also includes 10 feet of 18/5 thermostat wire, which must be connected to a 24VAC Networkable Thermostat. Compatible NTs CellarPro has tested and approved the following NT brands/models: Ecobee4 Pro Nest Honeywell / Lyric T6 Any other 24VAC HVAC Thermostat with power consumption less than 4VA Installation Instructions IMPORTANT: CONNECT THE TERMOSTAT WIRE TO THE NT BEFORE CONNECTING POWER TO THE COOLING UNIT. Install the cooling unit but DO NOT connect power the cooling unit. The temperature display on the cooling must be blank, indicating no power is connected to the cooling unit. It is now safe to connect the 18/5 thermostat wire to the NT. If the NT does not have a remote sensor, the NT must be installed inside the cellar. It is very important to locate the Thermostat in an area that gets good airflow, ideally in a location near the air return to the cooling unit. If the NT has a remote sensor option, it may be possible to locate the main Thermostat outside the cellar, and the remote thermostat inside the cellar. Make sure to disable the temperature input from the main Thermostat, and control the cellar using the remote sensor. It is very important to locate the remote sensor in an area that gets good airflow, ideally in a location near the air return to the cooling unit. Connect the color‐coded thermostat lead wire to the NT terminals as follows: Red wire to terminal “Rc” (24VAC Power Supply) ...

If the Thermostat does not have the terminal markings listed, it will be necessary to contact the Thermostat manufacturer to advise the correct terminal mapping. Once the wires are connected to the NT, connect power to the cooling unit, and turn “on” the power on the cooling unit’s digital display. The current temperature will show on the digital display. There is a 3‐minute delay before the cooling unit will start to run. Activate the NT and begin initial set up. Recommended Settings The following guidelines are general recommendations to optimize the NT for wine cellar applications. It will be necessary to reference the available NT menus and available options from the documentation provided with the NT. Set the mode to “Cool Only” Disable all scheduling, learning, and occupancy tracking functions. These routines are intended for comfort cooling and are not suitable for long term wine storage applications. If the Thermostat has a configurable minimum/maximum set point range, set the minimum to 47°F (or as low as possible) and set the maximum set point to 62°F. This is the safe operating range for CellarPro cooling units. Enter the desired cellar set point temperature. The NT will control the cooling unit to manage this set point temperature. Set fan to “Auto”. Compressor Minimum Off Time: If this setting is disabled by default, it must be enabled, with a minimum off time for CellarPro products of 3 minutes. If the Thermostat allows high/low temperature alarms, we recommend the following settings: 40°F (Low) and 70°F (high). If the Thermostat has an adjustable temperature differential (cooling on/off range), a setting of 4°F is recommended. Many Thermostats have a tight fixed differential of 1‐2°F. In this case the cooling unit will cycle more frequently than recommended. Therefore, it is advisable to set a longer Compressor Minimum Off Time to minimize frequent cycling. If the NT has a “Change Air Filter” reminder, set the reminder for every 3 months. ...

Temperature Display on Cooling Unit The temperature display provided on the cooling unit enhances the functionality of the NT for wine cellar applications. Alarms trigger an audible alarm only at the cooling unit, the alarms are not communicated through the NT. Consult the cooling unit Owner’s Manual for detailed troubleshooting information related to these alarms. The “Set” button has no effect since the set point is managed by the NT. The following parameters and functions are not available with the NT configuration: HY, FON, SET, HES, Quick Chill and Energy Saver. For self‐contained cooling units, high and low ambient temperature alarms (“HA2”/”LA2”) will behave as follows (refer to the cooling unit’s Owner’s Manual for addition information): “HA2” alarm ‐ the compressor will shut down until it cools off. “LA2” alarm ‐ will not shut down the unit and contact CellarPro asap. A start up safety delay of 3 minutes is enabled when power is first supplied to the unit, or when recovering from a power failure. The defrost cycle will be managed automatically based on the unit configuration. When the cooling unit is in defrost, “DEF” is shown on the display. The power button can be used to turn off the unit. When the display reads “OFF”, the compressor and fans are turned off, however the NT still has 24VAC power. To completely shut down the system, turn off both the cooling unit and the NT, or disconnect power to the cooling unit. V3.15.22 ...

60°F. When bottles are first loaded in the cellar, the cooling unit will run continuously (even up to a week) until the temperature falls below the Set Point. CellarPro 6200 and 8200 Series cooling units are designed to maintain proper wine storage temperatures inside cellars with adequate insulation up to 2200 cubic feet, depending on the cooling unit, thermal load and desired cellar temperature.
Page 32
As noted above, the cooling unit is designed to measure the temperature of the condenser coils and, if the temperature drops below a certain point, the LA2 alarm will display on the control panel. Please call CellarPro at 877.726.8496 if this alarm occurs.
All service provided by CellarPro under the above warranty must be performed by a designated repair center, unless otherwise specified by CellarPro. Purchaser is responsible for shipping the cooling unit to and from CellarPro or to and from a designated repair facility, and for removing and reinstalling the cooling unit from the wine cellar.
