KPO PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS SECTION 1 UNIT COMPONENTS Before installing and using the KwiKool KPO Series Port- able Air Conditioner, read this manual carefully for instruc- tions on proper usage and all safeguards. This manual should be retained for future reference.
KPO PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS KWIKOOL SECTION II INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY PREVIEW THE INSTALLATION SITE WARNING In COOL Mode, DO NOT place the KPOXX in the space that is being cooled. The KPO is designed to be outside the conditioned space and ducted in.
1. The supply air works best directed to equipment inlets or directly on the area to be conditioned. 2. The KPO series requires ducts to direct the cooling or heating into the conditioned space. This is done with 12” duct on KPO5 & KPO12 and 20” duct on KPO25.

Customers using this unit only to blow conditioned air and that are not trying to condition a space may not need to connect a return air duct. However, the KPO series requires a minimum amount of duct to operate (see specifications). If operating this unit with no ducting, reduce the return air by at least 50%.
KPO PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS SECTION III OPERATIONAL SAFEGUARDS Read the following warnings and safeguards carefully before installing or moving the KwiKool. WARNING Do not operate or install the KwiKool unit in a potentially explo- sive, combustible, or corrosive gas atmosphere.
KPO PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS KWIKOOL SECTION IV UNIT OPERATION STARTUP 1. Apply electrical power. When power is supplied to the unit, the controller will become operational. All KPO systems are equipped with a power/ phase monitor. 2. KPO12 and KPO25 users will have to place the unit’s built in breaker to the ON position to engage the controller.

Press ON and heating will begin. Fire rated or high temperature duct is NOT required to use with the KPO series in heat mode. The heat rating for KPO systems is as follows: KPO25 is 48 KVA, KPO12 is 24 KVA, and KPO5 is 12 KVA.

KWIKOOL KPO PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS NOTE The heat function on KwiKool KPO systems will not require a time delay or compressor operation; therefore, there is no delay in starting and no need to manage condensate water or condenser air discharge.
KwiKool. The KwiKool will sound an audible alarm and displays LP on the control. There is an automatic reset upon correction of the low-pressure condition. If this alarm is en- gaged the system will not operate in COOL, FAN or HEAT mode. Call 1-800-KWIKOOL, if this alarm is present on initial startup.
KPO PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS AUTOMATIC RESTART In the event of a power loss, the KwiKool resumes operation when the power is restored if in the ON position. All operational functions are saved in the memory of the control. CONDENSATE PUMP & HIGH-LEVEL ALARM KPO systems are factory-equipped with an internal high lift condensate pump.
The unit should be positioned as close to the space to be conditioned as possible with the return air duct directly around the area of highest load. Place the KwiKool system on a level surface to ensure proper condensate water flow and be sure the surface can support the weight of the KwiKool.
MAINTENANCE AIR FILTERS The KwiKool comes from the factory with filters installed on the evaporator inlet to prevent dust and de- bris from entering the system and circulating in the conditioned space. Factory installed filters are a disposable type and must be periodically checked and replaced based on the air quality of the condi- tioned space.
In contrast to conventional air conditioners, which circulate air conditioning capacity evenly to a space. KwiKool systems are used for cooling an area with a high concentration of heat load, many times from electrical or computer equipment. Understanding the capabilities of the KwiKool can help the operator avoid problems.
