    Cellar Construction This is only a guide and shall be considered as minimum requirements. All interior walls and floors shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R13 insulation. All exterior walls and ceiling shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R19 insulation.
  • Page 5: Features & Specifications

    Features and Specifications • Wine-Mate rack split cooling systems WM-2500~6500SSVWC are designed and used to provide a cold temperature between 50~65 °F for a properly insulated wine cellar. • The wine cellar will maintain humidity range within 50~70% RH. • These temperature and humidity ranges like in natural caves are optimized for long term storage of wine.
  • Page 6 NOTE: To prepare rough-in, leave minimum 4” clearances for electrical wiring and refrigeration piping. The specifications and dimensions are listed as follows: Electrical Weight (lb) Cond Unit Btu/h Cellar Size Model No Evap Unit Refrigerant Evap Unit/ Evap Unit/ L”xD”xH” (cu ft) Cond Unit Cond Unit...

MESSAGE CAUSE FUNCTION Temperature probe faulty Compressor switching to Con and CoF Probe temperature ALU higher than the High temperature alarm setting temperature; Outputs unchanged Probe temperature ALL lower than the Low temperature alarm setting temperature;...
  • Page 9 5. How to calibrate the air temperature probe If the actual cellar temperature differs from the displaying temperature, set ot = actual cellar temperature minus displaying temperature. 6. How to adjust defrost cycle In case there is excessive frost, the parameters FnC = C-y, idF = 6 and MdF = 20 can be used to avoid defrost.
  • Page 10 3) Press up/down keys to scroll to the required parameter within 10 sec. 4) Press the “SET” key to display its value. 5) Use up/down keys to change its value within 10 sec. 6) Press “SET” to store the new value. 7) To exit: Press SET + or wait 15sec without pressing a key.
  • Page 11: Care Guide

    Care Guide In general, always unplug system or disconnect power while doing care. 1. Condenser Water Line Cleaning • To clear any sediment that may accumulate, the water regulating valve may be manually flushed. • Insert screwdrivers under both sides of the valve spring guide and lift upwards to flush.

The fan will run from the minimum speed to full speed with the control knob at the lowest and highest speed position. To adjust the minimum speed, turn control knob to the lowest speed position, then rotate the setting (located on the side or front) clockwise to decrease the minimum speed or counter- clockwise to increase the minimum speed.
  • Page 23 8) If the superheat is high, check the subcooling first to know if the refrigerant charge is sufficient. If the charge is not sufficient, add more refrigerant. If the charge is good, then increase the evaporator suction pressure by turning the hex nut (5/16”) clockwise.
