Set Point. Condensate Pump Kit (optional) The Classic Plus 14 model comes standard with a drain tank, which collects the water that forms on the evaporator during normal cooling operation. If the unit is required to operate continuously without periodic emptying of this tank, a condensate pump may be needed.

Automatic Restart After Power Interruption The program within the microprocessor of the Classic Plus 14 contains a feature that will automatically restart the unit after power is lost and then regained. The unit also has memory in order to return itself back to the operating mode (including temperature set point) it was in prior to the loss of power.

Refer to the Wiring Diagrams (pg. 40) and check for connection of each wire. Inspection of Thermistor(s) Using an Ohmeter, check the resistance value across the 2-Pin connector. At normal temperature (77˚F, 25˚C) either thermistor (Room or Freeze) should measure approx. 10,000 or 10k ohms. MOVINCOOL CLASSIC PLUS 14 SERVICE PAGE 32...

Fats and oils may stick to the pipe from handling. All these factors will reduce effectiveness of brazing. It is necessary to eliminate excess brazing filler metal using sand paper and by cleaning thoroughly with a solvent such as Trichlene. MOVINCOOL CLASSIC PLUS 14 SERVICE PAGE 33...

Since the brazing filler metal flows easily into the portion heated to a proper temperature, it is essential to keep the whole fitting at a proper brazing temperature. Vertical Up Joint MOVINCOOL CLASSIC PLUS 14 SERVICE PAGE 34...
