RECEIVING YOUR NEW MODEL
Congratulations on your recent purchase of Continental Scientific superior
laboratory/pharmacy equipment products! When your shipment arrives, please
thoroughly examine the shipping crate for any punctures, dents, or signs of rough
handling. It is in your best interest to partially remove or open the shipping
container in order to examine the model for any concealed damages which may
have occurred during shipment. If the model is damaged, it must be noted on the
delivering carrier's delivery slip or bill of lading (see "filing a damage claim" under
warranty section).
GENERAL INFORMATION AND IMPORTANT OPERATING FACTS
This manual has been compiled to aid in the installation, operation and
maintenance of your new equipment. Please take the time to read all of the
material in order to become more familiar with your equipment and its operation,
and enjoy optimum performance.
All automatic defrost freezers have an energy-saving fan
delay control to prevent the interior fans from operating until the evaporator coil
becomes chilled. Therefore, on initial start-up, the fans will not turn on immediately.
Important Note:
Allow sufficient time for the evaporator coil

to reach its operating temperature (approximately 20 minutes).
No floor drains or plumbing connections are required since all models are
completely self-defrosting and use an automatic defrost condensate water
evaporating system (see "condensate evaporator installation" under installation
and location section).
All cabinets must be given sufficient time to reach normal operating temperature
before placing any product inside. For refrigerators, approximately 2 hours of
operation are required to lower the cabinet temperature to 4 degrees c. Freezers
require approximately 4 hours of operation to lower the cabinet temperature to -20
degrees c (see "operation" section for further information).

Doing so will result in poor performance, decrease in efficiency and possible need
for service to de-ice evaporator.
Prior to factory shipping, all models are performance run tested for a minimum of
12 hours providing a highly sophisticated temperature analysis recording exclusive
to each individual cabinet. This recording is supplied within this manual packet. A
final leak check, vibration, noise level and visual examination is made by a
qualified quality control team to assure a quality product. The carrier signs to this
effect when he accepts the product for shipping. To insure the maximum in safety

and sanitation, all models are listed under the reexamination service of
underwriter's laboratories.
UNCRATING YOUR NEW MODEL
The shipping container should remain on your model as protection against dents
or scratches while transporting it to the actual set-up location. Remove the
shipping container only at the last possible moment by following these simple
steps:
1. Using a pry bar, pry off and remove crate end bottom staples.
2. Pry off and remove crate front and rear bottom staples.
3. Slide crate upward and remove it, being careful not to rub against cabinet.
There are up to four (4) bolts securing the cabinet to the wooden skid. The bolts
are located at each end on the underside of the skid. In order to remove these
bolts it is advisable to tilt the cabinet backwards and place wooden blocks at each
end in order to hold it in its tilted position. Using a 3/4" socket or open end wrench,
remove the bolts and carefully slide the model off of the skid. After skid removal,
the cabinet should never be moved without dollies or rollers to avoid damage to
the cabinet bottom or floor.
Do not under any circumstances lay your new model on its
Important Note:
front or sides. Only for a brief period, may you lay the model on its back and only
then, when its properly blocked so as not to crush the condensate drain tubing and
also to allow provision for your hands in order to set it in its upright position without
inflicting damage to the cabinet.
Do not plug in and operate model for at least
three (3) hours after cabinet is set upright from being on its back as damage
could result to the compressor.
INSTALLATION AND LOCATION
CLEARANCES
Before moving the cabinet to its final point of installation, accurately measure all
doorways or passages to assure clearance. If additional clearance is needed,
cabinet doors and grill can be easily removed (see instructions outlined in "removal
of doors" and "removal of grill" sections).
VENTILATION
The final location site of your air cooled refrigerator or freezer must be able to
provide a large quantity of cool, clean air. The refrigeration system operates most
efficiently and trouble-free with cool, dry air circulation. Avoid locations near heat
and moisture generating equipment as well as direct sunlight where temperatures
can be in excess of 100 degrees f. Also, do not select a location in an unheated
room or area where temperatures may drop below 55 degrees f. Air supply to the
condensing unit is equally important. Restricting the air supply will place an
excessive heat load on the condensing unit and adversely effect its operating

side and back of the cabinet must be provided
special venting or air supply ducts must be installed by the installer for this
purpose. Do not at any time obstruct the grill area in front of the cabinet in any
way, and never place or store anything on top of the cabinet machine
compartment. These rules are essential for maximum cooling capacity and long
life of refrigeration parts.
FIGURE 1
MINIMUM CLEARANCE DIMENSIONS
FLOOR LOADS
The floor at the final location site must be level, free of vibration and strong enough
to support the total combined weights of your new model plus the maximum
product load which might be placed into it. A fully loaded reach-in or roll-in model
may reach 2,000 - 3,000 pounds. To estimate the possible product load weight,
assume that each cubic foot of storage space weighs approximately 35 pounds.
Multiply 35 pounds by the amount of cubic feet in the cabinet and obtain the
product load weight. For example, a 20 cubic foot refrigerator can hold
- 3 -

approximately 700 pounds of product (35 x 20) and assuming the refrigerator itself
weighs 300 pounds, the total combined weight of cabinet and product is
approximately 1000 pounds. Therefore, the floor in this example must be capable
of supporting up to 1000 pounds.
INSTALLING LEGS AND LEVELING REACH-IN MODELS
Your new reach-in model is supplied with adjustable type legs for leveling
purposes. Each single and two section model has four leg mounting holes on its
case bottom, and three section models have six leg mounting holes. Legs are
packed in the accessory carton from which they must be removed and installed on
the cabinet case bottom (see figure 2). In order to install the legs, carefully tip the
cabinet rearward adding four (4) 2" wood blocks underneath and simply screw the
threaded leg studs into the case bottom front leg holes. Repeat this procedure by
tilting the cabinet in the opposite direction and install the remaining legs. Make
sure the legs are tightened extremely well or the entire model will sway or rock with
each opening or closing of the doors, possibly causing damage to the case
bottom. This procedure should be performed close to the final installation site and
allow access to the rear of the cabinet for condensate evaporator installation (see
"condensate evaporator installation" under installation and location section).
To assure your cabinet is level, all legs are equipped with bullet-type leveling bolts.
These bolts can be turned by hand or by wrench, clockwise or counterclockwise to
level the cabinet.

Your roll-in model comes with one cart ramp per door opening. To install the
ramp(s), simply open the cabinet door and position the ramp slots onto the screws
located along the cabinet bottom front. If the door wiper rubs along the ramp to the
extreme where the door will not self-close, you will need to adjust the door (see
"door adjustment" section) or level the cabinet as explained above.
It is extremely important that your new reach-in or roll-in

adverse conditions will become apparent:
1. The door(s) will not be properly aligned and consequently will not provide a
good seal. Roll-in door wiper(s) may bind.
2. Your model will run excessively due to improper door seal(s).
3. An excessive amount of ice will accumulate inside the cabinet, around the
door opening(s) and especially on the finned evaporator coil. If allowed to
continue, ice will eventually block the coil and the model will fail. This will result
in the loss of all product stored within the cabinet.
4. Defrost water will fail to drain properly and will overflow the evaporator coil
drain pan and into the cabinet of both refrigerator and freezer models.
INSTALLING CASTERS AND LEVELING REACH-IN MODELS
If you wish to install casters on your new reach-in model, follow the steps above for
"installing legs" to install the casters, making sure again that the casters are
tightened extremely well (see figure 3). If the casters are not installed tightly, the
cabinet will sway or rock with each opening or closing of the doors, possibly
causing damage to the case bottom.
To assure that your cabinet is level, caster cups must be installed under the
casters which need leveling. Caster cups are not provided with your new model but
can be purchased at most hardware or furniture stores.
Do not attempt to level
casters by unscrewing them from the case bottom as this will cause damage
to the cabinet bottom and leg hole threads, voiding all warranties.

INSTALLING CONDENSATE EVAPORATOR
No floor drains or plumbing connections are required since all models use an
automatic condensate water evaporating system. All models are supplied with an
electric condensate evaporator pan and mounting bracket packed in the accessory
carton. To install the condensate pan on models, remove both mounting screws
located on the bottom of the cabinet back and install the mounting bracket on the
case bottom as shown in figure 4. Slide the condensate pan onto the bracket,
install the drain tube into the pan making sure it is not blocked or kinked, and plug
the ten foot power cord into the receptacle labeled "vaporizer" located on the case
top electrical box.
It is extremely important to be sure that the condensate

REMOVAL OF DOORS AND DOOR ADJUSTMENT
During installation, it may become necessary to remove the cabinet doors to
facilitate passage through narrow doorways or hallways. To remove a door, pry off
all hinge covers using a sharp tool or knife (see figure 5). Swing the door to the
open-door position (90 degrees) and carefully lift the door upward, removing the
door from the hinge bodies. If it is necessary to remove the hinge bodies from the
cabinet face, be extremely careful not to lose the light switch pin located inside all
top hinge bodies. To reinstall the door, reverse the above procedure.
All doors have been aligned at the factory, however vibration during transportation
may cause doors to shift and realignment may be necessary.
If the door(s)
require realignment, proceed as follows:
1. Pry off all hinge covers using a sharp tool or knife.
2. For each door, loosen the screws which secure the hinge bodies to the cabinet
face and slide the door into alignment. Hold the door firmly in place and tighten
all screws securely.
If the door gasket(s) do not seal properly to the cabinet face and there are
gaps between the gasket and the face on the hinge edge, proceed as
follows:
1. For each door, loosen all screws which are directed into the edge of the door
and push the door towards the cabinet eliminating the gap. Hold the door
firmly in place and tighten all screws securely.
2. Replace all snap-on hinge covers.

To remove the grill, loosen all four (4) grill mounting screws located on the
backside of the grill one or two turns. Simply lift grill up off of its mounting screws
and out. To replace the grill, line up the grill mounting screws with the keyhole slots
located on the cabinet body, push in on the grill and down.
If the model is provided with a digital or dial thermometer, the
Important Note:
front grill cannot be completely removed from the cabinet without first removing the
thermometer bulb from inside the cabinet. However, enough capillary tubing and/or
wiring cable has been provided to allow the grill to be laid across the top of the
cabinet after it has been removed. Take care not to damage the capillary tubing
when handling the grill.
If it is necessary to remove the thermometer bulb from inside of the cabinet, first
locate the thermometer bulb cover and remove the thumbscrews securing it in
place. The thermometer bulb cover is located on the interior top left corner towards
the front of the cabinet. Once the cover is removed, carefully grasp the bulb and
push it back through the cabinet hole. The thermometer bulb and grill can now be
removed from the cabinet. When reinstalling the thermometer bulb, be sure to
replace the permagum sealant around the hole after inserting the bulb.
INITIAL CLEANING PROCEDURE
Prior to start-up and before placing any product inside of your new reach-in or roll-
in laboratory model, the interior of the cabinet should be thoroughly cleaned.
Washing with a mild soap and warm water solution is recommended for cleaning
the aluminum and stainless steel surfaces of your cabinet. This should be followed
by cleaning with a baking soda solution (three (3) tablespoons of baking soda to
each quart of warm water). Rinse thoroughly with clear water and dry with a clean,
soft cloth.
Never use harsh detergents, cleaners, scouring powders or
chemicals when cleaning your model. Failure to dry the interior surfaces after

designed to operate with a voltage fluctuation of + 10 % of the voltage indicated on
the cabinet serial data plate. Full voltage of the correct service, on an individual
line not affected by the operation of other electrical appliances, must be available
to the condensing unit at all times.
Burnout of the compressor due to
exceeding the high or low voltage limits is easily detected and will
automatically void the factory warranty.
115 VOLT, 60 HZ, 1 PHASE CONNECTION
All 115 volt models are provided with a U.L. approved power cord and polarized
plug which is factory installed.
Any alterations to this cord and plug could cause an electrical
hazard and will void the factory warranty.

the condensing unit is 208-230 volts in which the wiring includes a neutral and a
mechanical ground. This wiring should be connected to the appropriate power
source by a qualified electrician and must conform to all local electrical codes.
SPECIAL VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS
When models are ordered from the factory with special, optional voltages,
connections should be made as required on the electrical wiring diagram provided
on the upper cabinet end panel next to the electrical console box.
START-UP CHECKLIST
After your model has been installed, leveled, cleaned, and electrically connected in
accordance with this manual, please take the time before start-up to observe the
following precautions to assure troublefree operation:
1. Check that all exposed refrigeration lines are free of severe dents or kinks.
2. Check the condenser fan and evaporator fans for freedom to rotate without
any obstructions
3. Make sure that the cabinet is properly leveled (see "leveling" under
installation and location section).
The system should run smoothly and quietly in accordance with generally
accepted commercial standards. If any unusual noises are heard, turn the unit off
immediately and check for any obstructions of the condenser or evaporator fans.
Fan motors, fan blades, or fan housings can be jarred out of position through
rough handling in transit or during installation.

condensing unit, and electrical hook-up should be performed by qualified
refrigeration personnel of a competent refrigeration company only.
OPERATION
All cabinets must be given sufficient time to reach normal operating temperature
before placing any product inside. Refrigerators are designed to maintain an ideal
cabinet temperature of 3.3`c to 4.4`c (38`f to 40`f) and approximately 2 hours of
operation are required to reach this temperature. Standard freezers are designed
to maintain an ideal cabinet temperature of -18.9`c to -20.0`c (-2`f to -4`f) and
approximately 4 hours of operation are required to reach this temperature. Low
temperature freezers are designed to maintain an ideal cabinet temperature of -
26.7`c to -27.8`c (-16`f to -18`f) and approximately 6 hours of operation are
required to reach this temperature.
THERMOMETER CALIBRATION
After your new model has been given sufficient time to pull down to the above
specified temperature range, the exterior thermometer located on the upper grill
be checked for calibration accuracy. All thermometers are carefully
must
calibrated at the factory prior to shipping but may be vibrated out of calibration
through rough handling in transit, shipping vibration, or during installation.
CALIBRATION CHECK
To check calibration, an accurate, mercury thermometer (within the temperature
range of your model) must be placed inside of the cabinet on the center shelf for at
least 15 minutes without any door openings. At this time, note the temperature on
the exterior cabinet thermometer, quickly open the door and compare it to the
interior thermometer's temperature. Whatever the difference (if any) is the amount
the exterior thermometer must be adjusted.
The adjustment procedure varies depending on which thermometer is equipped
with your model (see figure 5).
DIAL THERMOMETER
For a dial thermometer, carefully pry the clear plastic lens cover from the
thermometer body using a slotted screwdriver. To adjust the needle, hold the
center hub stationary using a small slotted screw driver and very carefully grasp
- 11 -

and turn the needle to the desired temperature using your fingers. Replace the
lens cover and recheck the calibration.
DIGITAL THERMOMETER
For a digital thermometer, note how many degrees the digital display needs to be
increased or decreased. Press twice directly on the mylar display towards the right
center using your finger. After pressing the first time, the display should read "cal"
indicating that you are in the calibration mode and after pressing the second time,
the display should read either zero or a positive number or a negative number (this
number is the point of origin for calibration). If your digital display needed to be
increased, you
Must advance the point of origin by that many degrees by pressing directly on the
mylar display towards the left top. If your digital display needed to be decreased,
you must decrease the point of origin by that many degrees by pressing directly on
the mylar display towards the left bottom. Once calibration is complete, return to
normal temperature mode by pressing once again on the mylar display towards
the right center. Now, recheck the calibration.
Example: the digital display reads 7`c and the internal thermometer reads 4`c so,
the digital display must be increased by 3`. Press the right center of the display
twice and the number -1 is displayed (this is the point of origin and could have
been any number). Now, press the top left of the display three times to make the -
1 go to +2. Calibration is complete so press the right center of the display to return
to normal temperature mode.

DEFROST OPERATION
All freezer models are equipped with an automatic, electric defrost system
consisting of an electric evaporator coil and drain pan heater, automatic electric
defrost time clock, defrost high limit switch, and a fan delay switch. The defrost
system is time initiated by the time clock and temperature terminated by the high
limit switch. The time clock is factory preset for three (3) defrost periods per day at
eight (8) hour intervals and a fail safe cut-off time of 32 minutes. These settings
should be adequate for most conditions, however, depending upon use and
climate conditions a fourth defrost may be required.
The defrost time clock is located in the electrical console box where a window
allows access to the timer dial. To set the time of day on the defrost time clock,
turn the knob on the center dial of timer face counterclockwise as the arrows
indicate until the correct time of day is lined up with the "time" arrow on the upper
left corner of the clock (see figure 7). It will be necessary to reset the time of day
on the timer if the freezer is turned off or has loss of power. To relocate and/or add
a defrost period, simply unscrew the defrost pins located around the outer dial and
screw them into the desired time slots (an additional pin is located in a storage slot
on the right side of the dial).
All freezers have a unique, energy-saving defrost cycle. It is
Important Note:
time initiated, temperature terminated, with an automatic, auxiliary time cut-off
safety to minimize electrical consumption and provide for the shortest possible
heating cycle. This safety time cut-off is factory set at 32 minutes and should not
require any further adjustment.
After defrost, the fan delay control prevents the evaporator fans from operating
until the evaporator coil has reached a temperature of 0`c (approximately 20
minutes) thus, minimizing warm air circulation inside the cabinet. Therefore, during
initial start-up, and after each defrost cycle, the fans will not turn on immediately.

MAINTENANCE
PERIODIC CLEANING PROCEDURE
It is best to clean your refrigerator or freezer when the product load is at its lowest
level inside your cabinet. To clean the interior or exterior cabinet surfaces, the
following procedure should be followed:
1. Disconnect your model from its power supply and remove all food product from
inside.
2. Open all doors and allow the cabinet to reach room temperature. Remove all
accessories (shelves, racks, pilasters, clips, etc.) from within the model, wash
with a baking soda and warm water solution, and rinse thoroughly with clear
water. Dry all of the accessories completely with a soft clean cloth.
3. Once the cabinet has reached room temperature, wash the entire cabinet
inside and out with a baking soda and warm water solution. For slightly more
difficult cleanups, ammonia or vinegar in warm water can be used. Rinse
thoroughly with clear water and dry with a soft clean cloth. Failure to dry all
surfaces completely may cause water stains or streaking on the aluminum or
stainless steel finish.
4. Return all accessories to their respective positions and return electric supply
power to the model.
PRECAUTIONS
1. Never use harsh detergents, cleaners, scouring powders, or chemicals
when cleaning your model.
2. Strong bleaches tend to corrode many materials and should never come in

contact with stainless steel.
3. Tincture of iodine, or iron should not come in contact with stainless steel.
These solutions, which cause stainless steel to discolor, should be rinsed
off immediately if contact occurs.
4. Gritty, hard abrasives will mar the finish of stainless steel and aluminum and
are not recommended.
SLIDING AND HINGED GLASS
All glass doors whether sliding or hinged are easily removable for cleaning.
Removal of a hinged glass door is the same as a solid door (see "removal of doors
and door adjustment" in installation and location section). To remove a sliding
door, slide it open about half way, grasp the door on both sides and lift up to clear
the bottom door track. Tilt the door out at the bottom. Use the top of the door to
ease the spring-loaded closing mechanism back to the closed position. Now, bring
the door down out of the top track. Caution should be taken so that the closing
mechanism is
allowed to spring back from the half-open position since the
not
spring will go past the closed position and may pop out of the top track. Should this
happen, move the closing mechanism back to the closed position.
To replace the sliding glass door, insert the door in the top track and use it to slide
the closing mechanism to the half-open position. Lift the door so it clears the
bottom track, push in to align the door with the track, and let the door down into the
track.
The glass used in sliding or hinged glass doors is of special
Important Note:
sealed pane design and cannot be replaced with ordinary window or plate glass. If
it becomes necessary to replace the glass, it can be obtained directly from the
factory.
GENERAL PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
Performance of the air cooled condensing unit located on the top of your new
model, depends exclusively upon the amount of air passing through the condenser
fins. Your refrigerator or freezer will run more efficiently, consume less current, and
provide a maximum of trouble-free service throughout its lifetime if the condenser
is kept clean and an adequate supply of clean, cool air is provided at all times.
Periodically (at least once a month) inspect the condenser coil, which is located
directly behind the front top grill, to check for debris or blockage.
If the condenser coil is dirty or blocked, disconnect the power supply to your model
and using a stiff brush, brush the dirt from the condenser fins until the condenser is
clear from any debris. Using a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment may aid in
