The drain line should be pitched at a minimum of 4” Wiring should be done in accordance with all national

drain line should be heated and insulated. The time clock should be adjusted to have a maximum
30 minute override to prevent overheating and steaming
of the coils. Typically one to two defrosts per day are
recommended however, the number of defrosts are ulti-
mately dictated by the usage of the box and the actual
amount of frost buildup on the coils.
Refrigerant Connections Evacuation
Refrigerant connections should be installed in Proper evacuation is essential prior to charging of the

Expansion valves are to be installed in accordance with General maintenance involves an occasional cleaning of

tial. On solder type valves, a wet cloth wrapped around
the valve during installation will help protect it from over-
heating and damage during the installation process.
Superheat settings should be checked after the system
has balanced out at the desired room temperature. On
systems sized for a 10° to 12° F TD, the valve should be
adjusted to maintain 4° to 6° F superheat. Higher evap-
orator TD will allow a higher superheat setting. On multi-
ple evaporator systems, the piping should be arranged
such that the flow from any valve cannot affect the bulb of
an other.
