INSTALLATION

UL LISTING

These merchandisers are manufactured to meet

ANSI/ UL 471 standard requirements for safety. Proper installation is required to maintain the listing.

electric fans, open doors or windows, etc. to create air currents around the merchandisers.

FEDERAL / STATE REGULATION

Product should always be maintained at proper temperature. This means that from the time the product is received, through storage, preparation and display, the temperature of the product must be controlled to maximize the life of the product.

These merchandisers at the time they are manufactured, meet all federal and state/ provincial regulations. Proper installation is required to ensure these standards are maintained. Near the serial plate, each merchandiser carries a label identifying the environment for which the merchandiser was designed for use. A Type II fan speed control kit is required for each merchandiser to operate at Type II conditions.

ANSI/NSF-7 Type I – Display Refrigerator /

Freezer

Intended for 75°F (24°C) / 55%RH Ambient Application

ANSI / NSF-7 Type II – Display Refrigerator / Freezer

Intended for 80°F / 55%RH Ambient Application

ANSI/NSF-7 – Display Refrigerator

Intended for Bulk Produce

LOCATION

Excel wall models have internal frames. A

3 inch (76 mm) space between the rear of the merchandiser and wall must be maintained for air circulation. However, in high ambient conditions, sweating may still occur.

If this happens install a method of forced ventilation such as a fan ventilation kit.

Wide Island Fronts

B e sure to position wide island merchandiser fronts properly

.

The front of a wide island merchandiser is readily identified by the location of the serial plate. Since all electrical and refrigeration connections will be made at the front side, the fronts will need to be positioned according to the store plan layout.

These merchandisers are designed for displaying products in air conditioned stores where temperature is maintained at or below the ANSI /

NSF-7 specified level and relative humidity is maintained at or below 55%.

Placing refrigerated merchandisers in direct sunlight, near hot tables or near other heat sources could impair their efficiency.

Like other merchandisers, these are sensitive to air disturbances. Air currents passing around merchandisers will seriously impair their operation. Do NOT allow air conditioning,

SHIPPING DAMAGE

All equipment should be thoroughly examined for shipping damage before and during unloading.

This equipment has been carefully inspected at our factory. Any claim for loss or damage must be made to the carrier. The carrier will provide any necessary inspection reports and/or claim forms.

Apparent Loss Or Damage

If there is an obvious loss or damage, it must be noted on the freight bill or express receipt and signed by the carrier’s agent; otherwise, carrier may refuse claim.

The front of a wide island merchandiser is readily identified by the location of the serial plate affixed to the inside of the left front assembly. Since all electrical and refrigeration connections will be made at the front side, the fronts will need to be positioned according to the store plan layout.A secondary serial number sticker is put on the exterior nosing on the discharge side. It provides the model, serial number and manufacture date.

Concealed Loss Or Damage

When loss or damage is not apparent until after equipment is uncrated, retain all packing materials and submit a written request to the carrier for inspection, within 15 days.

This product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

This warning is the result of the California State law known as the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, which is commonly referred to as “Proposition 65.”

This warning does not mean that Hussmann products will cause cancer or reproductive harm, or is in violation of any product-safety standards or requirements. As clarified by the

California State government, Proposition 65 can be considered more of a ‘right to know’ law than a pure product safety law. When used as designed, Hussmann believes that our products are not harmful. We provide the Proposition 65 warning to stay in compliance with California

State law. It is your responsibility to provide accurate Proposition 65 warning labels to your customers when necessary. For more information on Proposition 65, please visit the California

State government website.

EXTERIOR LOADING

Do NOT walk on top of merchandiser because damage to the merchandiser and serious personal injury could occur. T hey are noT sTrucTurally designed To supporT exces

sive exTernal loading such as the weight of a person. Do not place heavy objects on the merchandiser.

1-3

SHIPPING RIDER

Each case is shipped on a rider to protect the factory installed legs, and to make positioning the merchandiser easier. DO NOT remove the rider until the case has been positioned.

Once the rider is removed, the case must be lifted –NOT

PUSHED– to reposition. To remove the rider, remove bolts attaching rider to each leg.

MERCHANDISERS SHIPPED

WITH END INSTALLED

Be careful not to damage the factory installed end while moving the merchandiser. Make sure that lifting tools are positioned past the end and beneath the support bar.

SHIPPING BRACES

Move the merchandiser as close as possible to its permanent location and then remove all packaging. Check for damage before discarding packaging. Remove all separately packed accessories such as kits and pan displays.

Remove end braces, and discard hardware.

Exercise caution at all times when moving merchandisers with up-tilt riders. They are top-heavy and should never be left in the vertical position.

MERCHANDISER LEVELING

Merchandisers must be installed level to ensure proper operation of the refrigeration system and to ensure proper drainage of defrost water. During all steps of setting, joining and leveling merchandisers, close attention to position and operation must be maintained.

NOTE: B egin lineup leveling from the highest point of the store floor

.

Preparation

1. Using store blueprints, measure and mark on floor the exact dimensions/locations of the merchandiser footprint. A three (3) inch space is required behind each wall merchandiser, or lineup of merchandisers to prevent condensation. A three

(3) inch space is also required at ends of merchandiser, or merchandiser lineup to prevent condensation.

2. Snap a chalk line for the front and rear positions of the base legs.

AVOID SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. Up-tilt riders are top-heavy and may fall over.

Never leave uptilt rider in vertical position.

Use caution when moving.

3. Mark the location of each joint from front to back lines.

Do not remove shipping braces until the merchandisers are positioned for installation.

Do not stand or walk on top of merchandiser because falling off could cause personal injury.




4. FLOORS ARE NOT LEVEL!!! When joining two or more merchandisers, all cases in the lineup must be leveled on the same plane, left to right and front to back. This means that the entire lineup must be brought up to the level of the highest merchandiser in the lineup.

Along the lines previously marked, find the highest point of the floor by:

Remove Bolts from Front

Leveling Wall Merchandisers

Level the case by all four corners. Start at the rear by placing the provided shims as needed under each end of the rear base rail. The shims are long enough to allow adjoining wall cases to be leveled with the same shim. When the rear of the case is level end-to-end, move to the front of the case.

Use shims as needed at each front corner so that the front is also level from end-to-end and front-to-rear.

The merchandiser should be solidly supported at least every 4 feet (1220 mm). Once the merchandiser is level, if any gaps are present under the base rail, shims should be inserted approximately in line with the center front support legs to support the rear of the case.

At the front of the case, insert shims under each of the center legs so that they support the front of the merchandiser.

• Walking the floor and noticing any dips or mounds;

• Using a string level or laser level; and

• Using a transit.

Leveling

Position the first merchandiser at the highest point on the floor. Work outward from that point to create the merchandiser line-up.

Use a 48 inch (1220 mm) or longer level for end-to-end leveling. The discharge nosing of the merchandiser is a good location for the level at the rear of the merchandiser (center of wide island), and the handrail or return nosing is a good location for the level at the front of the merchandiser. For leveling the merchandiser front-to-rear, a 24 inch (610 mm) level should be placed on the flange of the merchandiser end frame. Suggested level locations are shown in the following illustrations on the next page.

A 3-inch space is required from walls at rear and ends of merchandiser(s) to prevent condensation.


P/N 0467434_N 1-5

Leveling Narrow, Intermediate, Wide Island or

End Merchandisers

Position the first merchandiser at the highest point. Set a long level (4 ft [1220 mm] or more) on top of the discharge air flue. Insert shims until the merchandiser is level from end to end and from front to back. Check all 6 legs on 8 ft

(2438 mm) merchandisers, or 8 legs on 12 ft

(3658 mm) merchandisers.

NOTE: To avoid removing concrete flooring, begin lineup leveling from the highest point of the store floor.

JOINING INSTRUCTIONS

Sectional construction means that two or more merchandisers may be joined in line yielding one long continuous display requiring only one pair of ends. a ll joinTs musT be airTighT To prevenT formaTion of ice or condensaTion

REFRIGERANT

REFRIGERATION / ELECTRICAL

REFRIGERANT PIPING

The correct type of refrigerant will be stamped on each merchandiser’s serial plate. The merchandiser refrigeration piping is leak tested, factory sealed and pressurized. Before making refrigeration hookups, depress the universal line valve to ensure that coils have maintained pressure during shipment. When using high glide refrigerants (e.g., R-407A, R-448A), if superheat needs to be adjusted, use the evaporator pressure and subtract the dew point from the coil outlet refrigerant temperature to measure the superheat level.

2-1

Connection Location

The refrigerant line connections are at the right- hand end of merchandiser (end opposite the main serial plate) beneath the display pans.

A sticker marks the location of the connection.

The installer must saw a hole to exit the cases.

A refrigeration shroud ships with each case.

Be fore making connections, place the refrigeration shroud over refrigeration piping so that when the shroud is rotated into place, it will be in the upright position. The Figure 2-1 shows the correct orientation.

Be careful not to burn, scorch or overheat the shroud when making connections. Once connections have been made, apply silicone sealant to the bottom of the shroud as shown in Figure 2-2. Refrigerant vapor is hazardous to your health and can cause death.

Avoid breathing refrigerant and lubrication vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat.

If accidental system discharge occurs,ventilate work area before resuming service.

Always wear safety goggles and protective gloves when working with refrigerants. Contact with refrigerant may cause injury. Disconnect hoses with extreme caution! All hoses may contain liquid refrigerant under pressure.

Be sure that any room where you are working is thoroughly ventilated, especially if a leak is suspected.

Read all safety information regarding the safe handling of refrigerant and refrigerant oil, including the Material Safety Data Sheet. MSDS sheets can be obtained from your refrigerant supplier.

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

Figure 2-2

Figure 2-1



2-2 R efRigeRation

/ e lectRical

As shown in Figure 2-3, rotate and center the shroud over the refrigeration outlet foam pad, then fasten to the interior liner of the bottom.

Figure 2-3

After connections have been made, seal this outlet thoroughly. Seal both the inside and the outside. We recommend using an expanding polyurethane foam insulation. Cover foam with silicone to prevent water from entering foam.

Line Sizing

Refrigerant lines should be sized as shown on the refrigeration legend that is furnished for the store or according to ASHRAE guidelines.

Note: If Koolgas 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.

Oil Traps

P-traps (oil traps) must be installed at the base of all suction line vertical risers.

Multiplexing

Piping of merchandisers operating on the same refrigeration system may be run from case to case. D o not run refrigerant lines through merchanDisers that are not on the same refrigeration system branch as this may result in poor refrigeration control and compressor failure.

Interconnecting piping inside the merchandiser must be located as shown below for clearance beneath the display pans. Alternately, the interconnecting piping may be run outside the case in the area shown.

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

.


P/N 0467434_N 2-3

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 EITHER of Above

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.

ATTENTION:

The following information is applicable only for piping Hussmann merchandisers to

Hussmann refrigeration equipment.

BRANCH LINE PIPING

Suction Line – All Defrosts

• Pitch in direction of flow.

• May be reduced by one size at one third of merchandiser run load and again after the second third. Do NOT reduce below evaporator connection size.

• Suction returns from evaporators enter at the top of the branch line.




/ e lectRical

Liquid Line – Off-time and Electric Defrost

• May be reduced by one size after one half the merchandiser load run. Do not reduce below evaporator connection size.

• Take-offs to evaporators exit the bottom of the liquid line. Provide an expansion loop for each evaporator take-off (minimum 3 in.

(76 mm) diameter).

FRONT TO REAR AND/OR

END INTERCONNECTS

The wide island merchandisers are factory equipped with separate piping and air systems for each compartment, and are thus all capable of twin-temperature operation.

This is a standard feature.

If the wide island merchandiser is to be run at a single temperature, factory installed piping interconnect kits are available.

REFRIGERATION THERMOSTAT

The refrigeration thermostat body is located in the electrical wireway. The bulb, when factory installed, is located in the discharge flue. Wide

Island models will have two thermostats – one on each side of the merchandiser.

DEFROST TERMINATION THERMOSTAT

The standard disc type defrost termination thermostat is not adjustable. This thermostat is clamped to the coil inlet tube.

NOTE:

A Dual Temperature Kit adds components to allow a low temperature merchandiser to operate at medium temperatures, and switch between low and medium temperature operating conditions.

Twin Temp is used on low temperature wide island cases only and is the standard configuration. Twin temp means each side of the island operates separately; thus one side might be set for ice cream conditions while the other side could be set for frozen food or ice cream.

Only when both sides of a wide island lineup will always be used for the same operating conditions, should an interconnect piping kit be considered. Interconnect piping kits cannot be used with dual temperature kits. Contact

Hussmann for further information.

CDA SENSOR (OPTIONAL)

Factory installed optional CDA sensor is located where the thermostat bulb would normally be located. Its leads will be routed through the electrical wireway and to the rack control panel. Leads are tagged in the wireway. Wide Island models will have two sensors— one on each side of the merchandiser.

MERCHANDISER ELECTRICAL DATA

Technical data sheets are included with this manual. The data sheets provide merchandiser electrical data, electrical schematics, parts lists and performance data. Refer to the technical data sheets and merchandiser serial plate for electrical information.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

All wiring must be in compliance with NEC and local codes. All electrical connections are to be made in the electrical wireway or Handy Box .

FIELD WIRING

Field wiring must be sized for component amperes stamped on the serial plate. Actual ampere draw may be less than specified. Field wiring from the refrigeration control panel to the merchandisers is required for defrost termination thermostats and for optional refrigeration thermostats. When multiple merchandisers are on the same defrost circuit, the defrost termination thermostats are wired in series. a l w a y s c h e c k t h e s e r i a l p l a t e f o r c o m p o n e n t a m p e r e s

IDENTIFICATION OF WIRING

Leads for all electrical circuits are identified by colored plastic bands. These bands correspond to the color code sticker (shown below) located inside the merchandiser’s wireway cover.

The defrost heaters, defrost termination thermostats and refrigeration thermostats on the wide island models are tagged with identification as being either front or rear merchandiser display section defrost and refrigeration controls.

WIRING COLOR CODE

Leads for all electrical circuits are identified by a colored plastic band: neutral wire for each circuit has either White insulation or a White plastic sleeve in addition to the color band.

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.

Optional drip pipe arrangements are shown on the next page. Assemble the components using

PVC specific threaded pipe sealer according to the manufacturer’s direction.

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

5. Ensure that drip piping is supported to relieve any stress on drip pipe connectors and drain hub. a. Drip piping MUST be supported 24 inches from drain hub tee.

It is the installing contractor’s responsibility to consult local agencies for local code requirements.

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. D ouble 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 /

4

in. per ft (20 mm per 1 m).

6. Provide a suitable air break between flood rim of the floor drain and outlet of drip pipe. To meed code requirements, 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.

7. Prevent drip pipes from freezing: a. Do NOT install drip pipes in contact with uninsulated suction lines. Suction lines should be installed with a nonabsorbent 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.


P/N 0467434_N 3-3

DRIP PIPING LINEUP ARRANGEMENTS

The following illustrations below show typical arrangements for installing drip pipes for a lineup of merchandisers. Illustrations are for reference only. Piping may vary with location and access to hub drain(s). Each merchandiser waste outlet must be individually piped to a hub drain if 1 / 4 in. drip piping pitch cannot be maintained.

NOTE: No more than two merchandisers are to be piped per water seal. Do not install water seal between two merchandiser waste outlets that are piped together. (Double water seals in series will cause an air lock and prevent drainage.)
