Insulation CellarPro cooling units are designed to be installed inside wine cellars that have proper insulation, moisture barriers and an airtight seal from the environment outside the cellar. Interior walls and floor should have a minimum of R-11 insulation, and a vapor barrier on the warm side of the insulation.

Outside the Cellar Condensing unit Air Exhaust. Condensing units create significant hot air which must be exhausted into an appropriately-sized space in order for the heat to dissipate. If the space is constrained and/or too small, the heat will not dissipate. In this event, the cooling unit will be forced to re-circulate its hot air exhaust and/or the static pressure will back up the cooling unit.
III. Installation Instructions Installation Instructions Split System piping and wiring must be installed by a qualified Refrigeration Technician in accordance with local and national code requirements. Condensing Unit Installation Indoor Units Condensing units can be installed remotely from the cellar in an area protected from direct exposure to moisture and sunlight.

3000S / 4000S Side mounting brackets are provided for mounting the evaporator flush to a wall inside the cellar. Optional top and bottom brackets (non-load bearing) are available upon request.
Page 12
6000S / 8000S Wall hangers are used to mount these split systems. First, wall brackets are attached to the wall, and then the evaporator slides onto the brackets. After the evaporator is installed, two bottom nuts must be installed on the recessed anchor studs.

Condensate Drain Line The condensate drain line should drop, then rise (but stay below the height of the fitting), and then drop again into a drain or bucket. Then, fill the trap with water. The condensate trap will allow any excess moisture inside the Evaporator to overcome the static pressure and flow out of the drain line.

1) Separate 115V / 60HZ power supplies are required for the Evaporator and the Condensing Unit. 2) A 15 amp circuit breaker is recommended for all Evaporator models. 3) A 15 amp dedicated circuit breaker (non GFI) is recommended for 3000S and 4000S Condensing Units.

System Wiring – Option A: Dual Power / Valve Control Under this configuration the Evaporator and Condensing units are separately powered, and the Condensing unit turns on and off based on suction pressure, as follows: The Evaporator includes a factory installed liquid line solenoid valve (LLSV), which is controlled by the Evaporator temperature controller.
Page 17
System Wiring – Option B: Single Power / Electronic Control Under this configuration, only the Evaporator is powered, and the Condensing unit is wired to the Evaporator by connecting: "L" on the Evaporator to "L1" on the Condensing unit ...

Installing Refrigeration Lines The Evaporator and Condensing units should be piped according to the following piping schematic: Piping Legend 1. The 3/8"ODS liquid service valve is located on the Condensing unit. 2. Hermetic liquid line filter drier (shipped loose). Install with the directional flow arrow as shown.

Installation Tips and Guidelines Make sure all electrical connections are secure. Inspect Evaporator and Condensing unit fans to confirm airflow. There shouldn’t be any excessive vibration, noise or obstructions to airflow. Observe system pressures during charging and initial operation and keep note of them as they will be required for the Service and Support Data Sheet which initiates the warranty.

Summary Keep in mind the following guidelines before purchasing a wine cooling unit from CellarPro: If the cellar is too large for the cooling unit, the cooling unit will be unable to maintain proper, even temperatures inside the cellar. ...
Operating Instructions Overview CellarPro cooling units are designed to maintain optimal conditions for wine storage and aging. These conditions include steady, cool temperatures, high humidity, minimal vibration and light, and clean air. The settings on your CellarPro cooling unit have been preset and optimized by the factory.
Page 25
CellarPro cooling units are designed to maintain appropriate levels of humidity, ranging from 50 to 70 percent, inside wine cellars. In order to increase or decrease humidity inside the cellar, the Fon setting can be changed as described in the “Advanced Operation”...

Up and Down Buttons To view the “High Temp” recorded by the cooling unit, press the “Up” button once. To view the “Low Temp” recorded by the cooling unit, press the “Down” button once. To reset the “High Temp” or “Low Temp”, press the “Set”...
Page 28
Energy Saver Button To activate and deactivate the “Energy Saver” mode, press the “Energy Saver” button. The “Energy Saver” indicator light will turn on when the cooling unit is in “Energy Saver” mode. In “Energy Saver” mode, the Minimum Set Point increases 4°F and the Temperature Differential is unchanged.
Page 29
Advanced Operation CellarPro cooling systems can be programmed with advanced settings to achieve more control over conditions inside the cellar. Conditions like humidity, the Temperature Differential, and alarm settings all can be modified for custom applications. To access the advanced settings, do the following: Press the “Set”...
V . T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g Improper installation, inadequate insulation, or a cellar that is too large will cause the cooling unit to run continuously and be difficult to troubleshoot. The cooling unit is designed to turn on when the air temperature in the cellar rises ABOVE the Minimum Set Point + Temperature Differential, and turn off when the air temperature falls below the Minimum Set Point.
