Important
1. This manual is an integral part of the SRE and as such
must be kept for the entire lifespan of the unit.
2. Carefully read the instructions before installation and prior
to any intervention on the model, in case of doubt contact
the manufacturer.
3. The model described in this manual cannot be used as
supplied as it is a component for refrigeration systems and
must be installed by qualified personnel only (see also
Installation and Set-up).
Applications
1. The model should be used exclusively for the purpose for
which it has been designed: misuse will exempt the manu-
facturer from any responsibility.
2. The FTE range has been designed for installations in cold
rooms and refrigerated storerooms specifically for the pre-
servation of fruit and vegetables.
3. The STD models are equipped with axial fan motors, the-
refore not suitable for duct ventilation systems and cannot
sustain extra static air pressure drops.
Inspection, transportation, handling
1. Upon reception the condition of model must immediately
be visually inspected; should damages be detected it is
necessary to promptly notify the transport company. The
packaging is designed and manufactured in accordance
to: type of model, adequate means of transport and hand-
ling.
2. Care must be exercised during transportation and hand-
ling as to avoid tilting the model as it may fall over.
3. During transportation and handling of packed model it is
necessary to avoid the application of excessive and impro-
per pressure on the package, strictly respect the marked
instructions and always keep the model in the position
shown (see Fig. 1).
4. During transportation and handling of packaged model,
use appropriate protective gear in order to avoid injury
with the
parts of the packaging (e.g. nails, wooden
boards, cardboard) and model (e.g. fins, casing).
5. During handling of the unpacked model, use appropriate
protective wear in order to avoid injury with the unit's
sharp edges (e.g. fins, casing).
6. Unpack the unit as close as possible to the installation site
(see Installation and Set-up sections of this manual). The
unit should not be transported without its original packa-
ging.
Installation and set-up
1. The installation and set-up of the unit must be carried out
by qualified personnel.
2. Ensure that the structural support and the relevant fixing
points can carry the weight and accommodate shape of
the unit (see Fig. 3 table with technical features).
3. Secure unit to the apposite support brackets, by respec-
ting the minimum allowances as illustrated in the schemes
(see table with dimensional features).
4. The model is not designed to be used as a support for
other components.
5. Ensure an adequate free space around unit to allow proper
air circulation in accordance with the type of storage area
(e.g. presence of trolleys, air ductwork, etc.). Do not
obstruct the fan motor air intake and the air exhaust of the
coil. Incorrect installation location, inadequate room size,
beamed ceilings, over storage, ice/frost build-up (due to
excessive moisture entering the cold room and/or inade-
quate defrosting) may obstruct intake and/or exhaust air cir-
culation, which can have a negative effect on stated perfor-
mance and may cause damage to the unit.

a) Remove cover
b) Remove side panels
c) Install the deflector on air outlet side
6. Consider an appropriate clearance area or predispose
removable access panels to facilitate access for the repla-
cement of electric heaters.
7. Avoid installation of the units next to the cold-room doors.
8. When installation is complete remove the protective film
from model.
9. Verify that the electrical power supply line is in complian-
ce to the electrical features of model.
10. In compliance to the laws in force, before connecting the
unit it is necessary to ensure that the electrical supply is
isolated and secured from accidental reconnection as to
protect against electric shock, to safeguard the equipment
and other. Should cabling be required, the model can be
supplied with junction boxes for the power supply of the
motors and junction boxes for the power supply of the
heaters the latter if electric defrost is required.
11. If devices for the regulation of revolutions of the fan
motors are used, it is important to assess compatibility, as
non-compatible devices may generate noise and damage
the fan motors. The manufacturer does not guarantee the
published performance for models that are equipped with
regulation devices.
12. The units are predisposed for ground wiring connection.
The unit installer and/or plant operator must ensure the
presence of an efficient earthing connection to protect
against indirect electric contacts.tion of the distributor is
not modified.
