down the interior and exterior surfaces of the cabinet.
Table 2.2 - Start-up Procedure (Refrigerated Storage)
Operation Results
1. Activate system by inserting electrical service cord into
electrical supply source and flip power control switch.
2. Locate liquid refrigerant indication glass mounted on
the receiver.
3. Wait 15 minutes.
4. Wait 3 hours.
Compressor should immediately come on line along with the
condenser fan and the evaporator fan.
Once the system has been operating for two minutes, the
glass should appear clear and full of liquid refrigerant.
The temperature in the storage area should begin to
approach the “green zone” on the thermometer indicating
adequate operation.
Once the operating temperature has been reached, stocking
of the containment area can begin.
