Features and Specifications • • • • • • • • • • • • • WM1500HTD, HTD-TE and WM2500HTD, HTD-TE cooling units are designed and used to provide a subtle temperature between 50~65 °F for suitable space at a normal environment. The refrigerated space will maintain humidity of 50~70% RH even when the environment becomes dry and humid. These temperatures and humilities are optimized for long term storage of wine.
Fig. 1.2 DIMENSIONS (in) The dimensions and capacity are specified as follows: Electrical Weight (lb) 90 115V/60Hz/4A 55 120 90 115V/60Hz/4A 55 Rear Exhaust 180 200 115V/60Hz/5A 60 Top Exhaust 180 200 115V/60Hz/5A 60 Model Exhaust CFM 1500htd Rear Exhaust 120 1500htd-te Top Exhaust 2500htd 2500htd-te Capacity cu ft (55°F/75°F) NOTES: • See the voltage, frequency and current specified on the label at the cooling unit.
Installation Instruction NOTES: 1) DO NOT INSTALL ANY DUCTS ONTO THE SUPPLY, RETURN, INTAKE AND EXHAUST. 2) MOUNTING BRACKETS, SCREWS, GASKETS AND OTHER SEAL MATERIALS ARE NOT INCLUDED. 1. Cabinet Location • Place the wine cabinet in a properly ventilated location. Otherwise, heat exhausted by the cooling unit will build up and it will not operate properly. • The exhaust area must not be closed space and must be ventilated.
• • • • • • • • • If top exhaust, cut another rectangular opening at the top of the cabinet to the length and width of the top exhaust (see Fig.2.2 & 2.3). Make 2 holes at the ceiling and install the ¼” inside diameter wood thread inserts (see Fig.2.1 & 2.3). Place the gaskets (1/2” foam tape) on the gasket lips (see Fig 2.4). If top exhaust, place another gaskets along the top exhaust at the top of the cooling unit (see Fig.2.9).

However, if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it will be a UL LISTED 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a 3blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will plug into the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be 115 V, 15 A.
Temperature Control & Humidity Adjustment 1. Temperature Setting • • • Set the temperature at 55 °F for the optimum aging of wine On initial start-up, the time required to reach the desired temperature will vary, depending on the quantity of bottles, temperature setting and surrounding temperature. Allow 24 hours to stabilize the temperature for each new temperature setting operation 2. Use of the controller Fig. 3.

II. Condenser Coil Cleaning • • • • • The condenser coil is on the ambient air intake side of the cooling unit. Clean the condenser coil regularly. Coil may need to be cleaned at least every 6 months. Unplug the unit or disconnect power. Use a condenser brush or a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean the coil when it is dusty or dirty. Plug the unit or reconnect power. III. Moisture Removing • Remove the extra condensate if it is accumulated in the wine cabinet at high humidity condition.
Troubleshooting This Troubleshooting Chart is not prepared to replace the training required for a professional refrigeration service person, not is it comprehensive Complaint 1. Unit not running 2. Cabinet temperature high, unit stopping and starting with short running time 3. Temperature high, compressor stopping and starting but very short running time 4. Temperature high or not cooling and running continually; “HA” alarm blinking and beeping Possible Causes Response a. Power cord unplugged b.
l. 5. Unit running too long Failed components l. a. Improper room insulation & seal b. Exhaust restricted c. Room too large d. Ambient temperature higher > 90°F e. Dirty Condenser f. Improper condenser air flow 6. Fan motor running but compressor not running a. Post-compressor fan running mode b. Incorrect power supply c. Incorrect or loose wirings d. Failed components e. Liquid refrigerant compressor in the Check compressor windings, start relay and overload protector a.
but temperature rising high a. Check for fans & CFM 11. Evaporator a. Evaporator air flow restriction b. Not stopping due to air leak, high b. Check for seal, door opening, freezing up ambient temperature or setting c. Bad thermostat or sensor d. Low ambient temperature low e. Moisture in the system f. Refrigerant low or leaking g. Capillary tube blockage 12. Water leak 13. Circuit tripping 14. Noisy operation ambient temperature and setting c. Check for thermostat and sensor d.
