1. Introduction

VINOTEMP assumes no responsibility for any repairs made on

products by anyone other than authorized service technician

This manual has been prepared to provide the information on installing,

servicing, troubleshooting and repairing procedures for the WINEMATE

3500HZD, 4500HZD, 6500HZD and 8500HZD cooling unit.

I. Goals and Objectives

The goal of this manual is to provide detailed information that will enable the

service personnel to properly install and repair the cooling unit, and troubleshoot

and diagnose malfunctions.

The objectives of this manual are that the service personnel will

•Fully understand the proper safety precautions

•Successfully install the cooling unit

•Successfully troubleshoot and diagnose malfunctions

•Successfully perform necessary repairs

•Successfully return the cooling unit to proper operational status

II. R134a Refrigerant Service Information

This cooling unit uses R134a refrigerant. This refrigerant requires synthetic ester

oil in the compressor. This cooling system does not tolerate contamination from

any of the following:

•Other refrigerants

•Moisture

•Petroleum-based lubricants

•Silicone lubricants

•Cleaning components

•Rust inhibitors

•Leak detection dyes

•Any other types of additive

As a result, the following precautions should be observed:

•Use equipment dedicated to R134a sealed system only.

•Use R134a refrigerant for back-flushing.

- 4 -

•Use dry nitrogen to purge the system.

•Do not overcharge the refrigeration system.

•Do not leave replacement compressor open to the atmosphere for more

than 10 minutes.

•Do not operate the compressor without refrigerant charge in the system.

•Do not use the compressor if the rubber plugs on the replacement

compressor appear to have been tampered or removed.

•Always replace the filter-drier when performing any repairs on the sealed

system.

•The filter-drier must be cut from the sealed system. Never unbraze the

filter-drier from system tubing. Applying heat will drive moisture back into

sealed system.

Table 1-1 Health and Safety Handling of R134a

2) Removing the Inner Styrofoam Covers

Once the outer cover is removed, this will expose the inner styrofams. The top

large Styrofoam cover seals off the condenser and evaporator fan compartments.

To gain access to the other components, the styrofoam covers will need to be

removed. To separate the top styrofoam covers, a knife can be used to cut along

the seam and through the seal. Take care as not to damage any wiring or the

styrofoam pieces.
