F) you risk tripping the high-pressure switch. The water-cooled Wine Guardian system requires cooling water to be piped to the unit for proper operation. The cooling water absorbs the refrigerant heat through the unit’s water-cooled condenser coil. Warm water is then directed out of the unit back to the cooling water system.

Electric power is supplied by a single, factory-furnished cord and plug. All external controls are digital and proprietary to Wine Guardian products. Only the approved communication cable and Wine Guardian controllers are suitable for proper system operation.
Instructions. Duct Collar Kits Ducting for the Wine Guardian is sold in kits by size for each unit. Each kit contains two adapter collars, one 25’ (7.3 meters) length of round flexible duct and two straps. The number of duct kits needed depends on the layout. The size of the kit depends on the model Wine Guardian selected.
Extended Compressor Warranty The Wine Guardian uses only the best commercially available compressors on the market. However, since the compressor is the single most expensive component in the unit, it is recommended that you purchase the extended warranty option. Component Overview Cabinet –...

Prior to installation determine how best to mount the unit. Please ensure a 3’ minimum clearance for service work. Floor Mounting - Mount the Wine Guardian fan coil on the floor but elevate it 4” (10cm) as a minimum on a frame with a plywood surface to keep it away from water. Allow adequate space for the external drain.
Ceiling Mounting - Construct a structurally sound, level platform to place the unit on when hanging it from the ceiling joists. The Wine Guardian system 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 for corners.

Use ductwork on the condenser section to redirect or absorb sound, to bring in outside air to the unit inlet, and/or to exhaust the hot air out of the ambient space. Ductwork Diameters (inches) – Wine Guardian 60 Hz units Evaporator (cold air side)
Note: Uninsulated ducts and surfaces cause exposed metal to sweat which can cause a degradation of insulation, a loss of cooling capacity, and in some cases lead to water damage. Note: If the cooling unit is placed in a hot and humid location it could form condensation on the chassis.
DO NOT install an external trap on the drain line, every ducted wine guardian unit is built with an internal trap. Allow enough height for the drain line to function properly. If draining into a nearby sink, the unit must be elevated higher than the rim of the sink in order for the water to drain by gravity.

IMPORTANT Regardless of wired or wireless, each Wine Guardian System can have a maximum of two (2) Remote Interface Controllers and three (3) Remote Sensors.
~WARNING~ Air movement though an unsealed opening in the wall will cause condensation damage to the controller. Use durable tape to seal the opening in the wall after applying insulation around the wire in the opening. Additional Remote Interface Prior to adding an additional remote interface to the system, you will have to change setting 30 on the first controller to give it a different address.
Mounting the Remote Interface Controller (Wired) 1. Remove the comm cable from the zip lock bag and attach it to the side of the Wine Guardian unit (Fig. 1). a. Route the communication cable within the wall and/or ceiling structure of the wine cellar to the desired controller mounting location.
Mounting the Remote Interface Controller (Wireless) 1. Plan on mounting the remote interface controller on a solid surface away from doors, corners, air outlets, drafts or heat generating equipment. Do not mount the remote interface controller directly on an outside wall, a wall adjacent to a boiler room, or other hot area.
Mounting the Remote Sensor (Wired) 1. Remove the comm cable from the zip lock bag and attach it to the side of the Wine Guardian unit. Route the communication cable within the wall and/or ceiling structure of the wine cellar to the desired controller mounting location.

Plug in the communication cable to the remote sensor and mount the Remote Sensor to the wall. (Fig. 3) Reattach the sensor’s faceplate (Fig. 4) If multiple sensors are being used either connect each Sensor to each other in series using RJ9 cable or purchase a RJ9 Splitter (Fig.
Mounting the Remote Sensor (Wireless) 1. Plan on mounting the remote sensor on a solid surface away from doors, corners, air outlets, drafts or heat generating equipment. Do not mount the remote sensor directly on an outside wall, wall adjacent to a boiler room, or other hot area as this runs the risk of influencing its temperature readings.
Remote Sensor Pairing – Multiple Sensors (Wireless) If using multiple remote temperature/humidity sensors in your application, refer to the figures and the procedure below to change each remote sensor’s device number (Three Remote Sensors maximum). Each Remote Sensor must have its own device number and must also be on the same RF channel (Setting 31) as the system they are being paired with.

Risk of Serious Injury Sharp Edges are present on the fan wheels, housing, fins, and coils Maintenance on Wine Guardian units requires working with high voltage and sheet metal with possible sharp edges. Only qualified personnel should perform maintenance. Some tasks require knowledge of mechanical and electrical methods. Make sure you are familiar with all hazards, general safety related procedures, and safety labels on the unit.
Flushing the Water Regulating Valve – Water-Cooled Only To clear any sediment that may accumulate, valves may be manually flushed by inserting screwdrivers under both sides of the main spring and lifting upwards to flush the valve. Manual flushing does not affect valve adjustments.
Resetting the High-Pressure Switch High-Pressure Switch Has Shut Down the Unit Every Wine Guardian unit has a manual reset high pressure switch in the refrigeration system. This switch shuts the compressor and condenser down if the head pressure in the system is too high. It is intended to protect the compressor. Restricted airflow through the condenser is the most common reason for the pressure to become too high.
