CHAPTER 3: MULTI-PURPOSE WINE CABINETS
1. Operating principles
These devices are designed for preserving wine and controlling its temperature.
Preservation: maintaining the quality of wine over time.
Controlling the temperature: bringing the wine to the right service temperature.
The temperature distribution is controlled via a static principle: cold air is heavier than hot air.
Description of the device:
Carbon filter
Cooling thermostat
Evaporator
Heating device
Lava stone
Room temperature
Preservation
Heating thermostat
Compressor
Temperature:
Cooling white and rosé wines as well as champagnes.
The air temperature fluctuates between 6°C at the bottom and 14°C at the top (18°C in models
CA231GLW, EV503ZX and EV504ZX that are fitted with an element and a room temperature compartment). At an ambient temperature of 25°C, it is wise to have the thermostat on setting 2 to ensure the central section of the cabinet has an average temperature of 12°C.
The temperature is controlled by one or several thermostats in accordance with the technical specifications of the device: "winter" system, room temperature or not, etc.
The thermostat located in the device is only intended for the production of cold air.
In ambient conditions of around 14°C or lower, it is not functional.
