LIQUID MEASURING THERMOSTAT SYSTEM
The WhisperKOOL Series cooling units come equipped with a liquid temperature measuring thermostat system.
This system incorporates the following advantages:
1. Self-Calibrating Probe: The probe contains a sensor chip, which actually communicates back and forth
to the thermostat. This results in a consistent temperature setting and accuracy. Do not remove the tip from
the probe!
2. Heavy-duty Circuitry: The circuitry within this new unit has been upgraded to resist power surges, which
play havoc on electrical components. This improvement will ensure years of trouble-free use. However, for
the highest reliability, we recommend that the customer install a surge protector for the unit itself.
Measuring liquid temperature has a few unique advantages:
1. Wine temperature is kept in a very precise controlled environment. This assures a consistent temperature.
2. By measuring the liquid temperature rather than air, the unit will operate 75- 80% of the time.
To Use the thermostat:
1. Locate an empty wine bottle.
2. Fill 3/4 full with room temperature tap water.
3. Place bottle probe securely into bottle.
4. Place bottle with probe level and to the side of the unit
in your wine cellar. It is recommended that it is placed in a
central location of your wine cellar. Avoid pulling too much
on the probe cord. It may become disconnected resulting in
non-operation of the unit.
Note: The thermostat can be set between 50°F
and 67°F.
Remember: The WhisperKOOL System is based on the
temperature of the water. Do not be misled by thermostats
reading air temperature. The air temperature in the cellar will
be cooler than the liquid temperature of the wine while it is
coming to optimum balanced temperature.
Fill an empty bottle with room-temperature
water; then insert the probe.
