MACHINE DESCRIPTION

Blocksystems from the FS range are formed by a condensing unit (cold room exterior), an
evaporating unit (cold room interior), and an electronic control panel located inside the condensing
unit. The refrigerant follows the compression refrigerating cycle system.
Blocksystems are equipped with electrical defrosting system (MBP = medium temperature and LBP =
low temperature models) or with a ventilation defrosting system (HBP = high temperature models),
controlled by an electronic control panel. Defrosting occurs automatically with a cyclical frequency
that can be controlled by the user; it can also be enabled manually, using the relevant control.
The FS range is available in two different versions: nitrogen-charged with shut-off valve connections
for all models or, where available, pre charge refrigerant and fast connections. In this case it is
possible to request the supply of pre-charged connections pipes.
•
FS = with nitrogen charge and shutt-off valve
•
FS/R = with gas charge, fast connections and pipe connections of the following lenghts:
2,5/5/10m

INSTALLATION

Before installing, it is necessary to make a layout of the refrigerating system; this must include the
following:
a) all components of the refrigerating system (i.e.: condensing unit, evaporator, thermostatic valve,
electrical panel, piping dimensions, any safety devices, etc.)
b) system location
c) piping location
• Installation must only be performed by qualified staff with the necessary technical requirements
according to the country in which the machine is installed.
• Blocksystems from the FS range must only be installed on vertical walls.
• The machine must not be installed in a closed environment where good air flow is not
guaranteed.
• Leave enough space around the machine for it to be possible to perform maintenance operations
in safe conditions.
• When moving the machine, use cut-proof protective gloves or a suitable hoisting system.
• For information about weight, see the table of general features at the end of this manual.
For the correct operation of the Blocksystem, we recommend the following minimum thickness for the
nd numbers = the last two numbers of the year of production
th numbers = the week number of the year in which the machine was made
