INSTALLING BUMPERS
Offsetting the bumpers and top rails helps to
disguise the joint locations, giving the lineup a
smoother look.

Do NOT install the last bumper sections at this
time. These sections will be installed in the last
step.

Begin at the left end of the line-up. A starter
bumper is factory-installed with end kits. Insert
the internal joint trim, then add the full-length
bumper.

Once all except the last section of bumper have
been installed, refrigerate the case line-up for
at least six (6) hours. The last sections of
bumper should be kept inside a refrigerated
case or cooler during this time to allow the
bumpers to contract.

Align each bumper section with its retainer and
push into place, working from the end of the lineup. Install full length bumpers and internal joint
trims offset across joints. Make sure that no gaps
exist between sections. Continue installing
bumpers the length of the line up.

Before installing the last full-length section,
measure the remaining space. Use a miter box
and fine-tooth saw to cut last bumper to length.
Install the last section.

REFRIGERATION / ELECTRICAL

2-1

REFRIGERANT
The correct type of refrigerant will be stamped on
each merchandiser’s serial plate which is located
on the left-hand end of the interior top liner.

WARNING

!

Refrigeration lines are under pressure and
should be depressurized before attempting
to make any connections.

REFRIGERANT PIPING
Connection Location
The refrigerant line connections are at the righthand end of the merchandiser (as viewed from
the front) beneath the display pans.
After connections have been made, seal this outlet thoroughly. Seal both the inside and the outside. We recommend using an expanding
polyurethane foam insulation.

!

CAUTION

When brazing pipes be sure to use the
insulation blanket shipped with the
merchandiser to prevent damage to
the plastic case bottom.
Multiplexing
Piping of merchandisers operating on the same
refrigeration system may be run from merchandiser to merchandiser through the end frame
saddles provided for this purpose. DO NOT RUN
REFRIGERANT LINES THROUGH MERCHANDISERS

NOT ON THE SAME REFRIGERATION
as this may result in poor refrigeration
control and compressor failure.

THAT ARE

NOTE: If Gas defrost is used, the liquid line
will need to be increased two sizes larger inside
the merchandiser area. This is necessary to ensure
even liquid drainage from all evaporators during
defrost.
Line Sizing
Refrigerant lines should be sized as shown on the
refrigeration legend that is furnished for the store
or according to ASHRAE guidelines.
Oil Traps
P-traps (oil traps) must be installed at the base of
all suction line vertical risers.
Pressure Drop
Pressure drop can rob the system of capacity. To
keep the pressure drop to a minimum, keep the
refrigerant line run as short as possible using a
minimum number of elbows. Where elbows are
required, USE LONG RADIUS ELBOWS ONLY.

INSULATION
With GAS Defrost
The suction and liquid lines should NOT contact
each other and should be insulated separately
for a minimum of 30 ft (9144 mm) from the
merchandiser.
With OTHER Than Gas Defrost
The suction and liquid lines should be clamped or
taped together and insulated for a minimum of
30 ft (9144 mm) from the merchandiser.
With All Defrost
Additional insulation for the balance of the liquid
and suction lines is recommended wherever
condensation drippage is objectionable or the
lines are exposed to ambient conditions.

EXPANSION VALVE ADJUSTMENT

REFRIGERATION THERMOSTAT

Expansion valves must be adjusted to fully feed
the evaporator. Before attempting to adjust
valves, make sure the evaporator is either clear or
only lightly covered with frost, and that the
merchandiser is within 10 deg F (6.5 deg C) of
its expected operating temperature. Adjust valves
as follows:

The thermostat body is located in the electrical
raceway near the right-hand end of the merchandiser. Its sensing bulb is located behind the right
end interior back panel.

Attach two sensing probes
(either thermocouple or
thermistor) to the evaporator.
Position one under the clamp
holding the expansion valve
bulb; securely tape the other
to the coil inlet line.
Some “hunting” of the
expansion valve is normal.
The valve should be adjusted
so that during the hunting
THE GREATEST DIFFERENCE

Check Valve

BETWEEN THE TWO PROBES IS

3–5 deg F (1.7–2.8 deg C).
With this adjustment, during
a portion of the hunting the
temperature difference
between the probes will be
less than 3 deg F (1.7 deg C)
and at times 0.

DRIP PIPING AND SPLASHGUARDS

3-1

WASTE OUTLET AND WATER SEAL
The waste outlet location varies for each of the 1,
2, 3, 4, and 5 door merchandisers. Drip piping is
located between the front case base and the
splashguard fixture and runs parallel to the case
(see Data Sheet for exact locations).

CAUTION

Splashguard brackets MUST be installed
before piping case.
(See Page 1-3)

4. Avoid long runs of drip piping. Long runs
make it impossible to provide the pitch necessary for good drainage.

INSTALLING DRIP PIPING
Poorly or improperly installed drip pipes can
seriously interfere with the merchandiser's operation and result in costly maintenance and product
losses. Please follow the recommendations listed
below when installing drip pipes to ensure proper
installation.
1. Never use drip piping smaller than the nominal diameter of the pipe or water seal supplied with the merchandiser.
2. When connecting drip piping, the water seal
must be used as part of the drip piping to prevent air leakage or insect entrance. Never use
two water seals in series in any one drip pipe.
DOUBLE WATER SEALS IN SERIES WILL CAUSE
AN AIR LOCK AND PREVENT DRAINING.
3. Pitch the drip piping in the direction of flow.
There should be a minimum pitch of 1/8 inch
per foot (1 mm per 100 mm).

Drip Piping

!

5. Provide a suitable air break between
flood rim of the floor drain and outlet
of drip pipe. To meet code on low base
merchandisers, it may be necessary
to install a field-supplied drip pipe
reducer. An alternative is to cut the
last section of drip pipe at an angle.
6. Prevent drip pipes from freezing:
A. Do NOT install drip pipes in contact with
uninsulated suction lines. Suction lines should
be insulated with a non-absorbent insulation
material.
B. Where drip pipes are located in dead air
spaces, such as between merchandisers or
between a merchandiser and a store wall,
provide means to prevent freezing.

SEALING SPLASHGUARD TO FLOOR
IF REQUIRED by local sanitation codes, or if
desired by the customer, plastic splashguards may
be sealed to the floor using silicone type sealer.
The amount needed will depend on how much
the floor is out of level.
• Remove all dirt, wax and grease from the area of
the splashguard where adhesion will be necessary.
This is to ensure a good and secure installation.
• Apply a good silicone type sealer along the
bottom of the splashguard. Sealant must be
removed and replaced when servicing.

3-3
OPTIONAL Stainless steel splashguards may be
sealed to the floor using a vinyl cove base trim.
The size of trim needed will depend on how
much the floor is out of level.
To install the trim to the splashguard:
• Remove all dirt, wax and grease from the area
of the splashguard where adhesion will be necessary. This is to ensure a good and secure installation.
• Apply a good contact cement to the cove trim
and allow proper drying time according to the
directions supplied with the cement.
• Install the trim to the splashguard so that it is
lying flush with the floor. DO NOT SEAL THE TRIM
TO THE FLOOR.
