Installation; Electrical Requirements - ELECTRO FREEZE GENESIS Series Operator's Manual

ELECTRO FREEZE Soft Serve Model GEN-5400
2.2

Installation

1. This freezer is designed for indoor
use and must be protected from outdoor
weather conditions.
2. Where codes permit, Electro
Freeze recommends that the freezer be
installed on casters and have flexible
water and electrical connections for
easier service and cleaning.
3. All models require a minimum 6
inch (15 cm) clearance on either the side
panels or the rear panel for adequate
ventilation. Freezers designed with top
air discharge require at least 18 inches
(45 cm) above the top panel be free of
obstructions. Anything blocking ventilation
of the freezer (including cone dispensers)
will reduce the efficiency of the freezer.
2.3

Electrical Requirements

1. Always verify electrical
specifications on the data plate of each
freezer. Data plate specifications will
always supersede the information in this
manual.
184297
CAUTION
All materials and
connections must
conform to local
requirements and be
in compliance with the
National Electrical Code.
CAUTION
To prevent accidental
electrical shock, a
positive earth ground is
required.
4. Water cooled double models
will require a 1/2 inch MPT water inlet
and water waste connection. Both water
condensers are tied together so that one
water inlet and one water waste is all that
is required. The connections are found
on the bottom under the compressor
mounting area and are clearly tagged
"Water Inlet" and "Water Waste." A
manual shut-off valve should be installed
in the water inlet line at the time of
installation. The water pressure must be
between 35-140 psig (241-965 kPa) for
proper operation.
5. Place the freezer in the final
location and level by adjusting the legs
or casters so that it is level side-to-side
and the front is approximately ¼ inch (6
mm) lower than the rear to allow proper
drainage of the freezing cylinder.
2. Supply voltage must be within
+ 10% of voltage indicated on the
nameplate.
Important:
On 1ph freezers, the voltage must
be within +10% and -5
Also, on three-phase systems, voltage
between phases must be balanced
within 2%. (More than a 6 volt difference
between any two voltage measurements
at 208-230 volts indicates a possible
imbalance.) Request your local power
company to correct any voltage problem.
3. An easily accessible main power
disconnect must be provided for all poles
of the wiring to the freezer.
