Installation - Dometic CoolAir SPX1200I Installation Manual

7 Installation

The evaporator unit must be installed in an upright position.
The parking cooler consists of the following components:
• CoolAir SPX 1200C compressor unit (2)
• CoolAir SPX 1200IC rear panel evaporator unit (1) with connecting line (3)
Fig.  on page 2
The compressor unit (2) is attached to the firm and straight rear panel of the cab or by means of a firm fastening
frame. The evaporator unit (1) is fitted on the inside of the rear panel of the cab.
Note The connection line (3) can only be installed after fitting the evaporator unit and the compressor
unit.
Notes on the installation
WARNING! Danger of electrocution
• Detach all connections to battery before starting the installation of the parking cooler.
• Ensure that all electrical components are electrically discharged before carrying out work on them.
CAUTION! Risk of injury
Improper installation of the air conditioning roof unit puts the safety of the user at risk and can result in ir-
reparable damage to the device.
The manufacturer strongly recommends the use of a vehicle-specific fastening frame for an best installation proce-
dure for the SPX 1200C compressor unit on the rear panel of the cab. Following installation of the unit, the specified
unit software parameters must then be checked.
Observe the following tips and information when installing the parking cooler:
1. Consult the vehicle manufacturer on the following. Is the cab's rear panel a suitable location for attaching the
unit? Is the body designed to bear the static weight and loads occasioned by the parking cooler in a moving ve-
hicle?
2. Check the dimensions of the unit (Fig. ).
3. Always check before installation of the unit whether any vehicle components could be damaged, deformed or
impaired in terms of their functionality as a result of the installation.
4. Avoid any narrow radius when routing and bending supply lines. Use a suitable round object with a shim as a
bending aid. A radius which is too narrow will kink the refrigerant line, and this will prevent the parking cooler
from operating. Avoid any unnecessary and frequent mechanical stress to the supply line between the evapora-
tor unit and the compressor unit. Damage can result in the loss of refrigerant and impair the performance of the
unit.

5. The supplied assembly parts must not be modified during installation.
6. The ventilation slots (grille) may not be covered (minimum distance from other attachment parts: 10 cm).
7. The device can be connected directly to the battery or via the lorry's terminal block. The battery is preferred for
the connection. On some vehicles larger consumers connected to the terminal block are switched off after a
