Installation; Maintenance - Chattanooga Group ColPaC C-2 Handbuch

General Operating Rules
• Always keep the ColPaCs in the chilling chamber of t t h h e e u u n n i i t t w w h h e e n n n n o o t t i i n n u u s s e e . . This keeps the packs clean, chilled,
and ready for use, and prevents pack damage.
• Never place a damaged ColPaC into the chilling chamber of the unit.
• Check for ice/frost build-up daily and defrost unit when ColPaCs become crowded in chamber.
• Never adjust the thermostat too high or too low. See caution above.
• Always replace ColPaCs when the plastic covering becomes damaged beyond repair or when ColPaC becomes
firm or hard and not moldable around the area being treated. Minor repairs may be made with plastic or vinyl tape.
• If the unit is to be left unattended for an extended period of time, unplug and follow the defrosting procedures
found in the "Maintenance" section of this manual
• Always use factory authorized replacement parts.
• Always clean and sterilize ColPaCs, which are exposed to contamination. Do not sterilize ColPaCs with boiling
water. Gas sterilizing is not recommended. Alcohol or similar substance may be used to decontaminate the
packs.If any contamination is suspected, destroy the ColPaCs.

Installation

Remove all packing material inside the ColPaC chilling chamber. It is important to remove all loose pieces of paper
and other packing material, which might otherwise plug the drain! Make certain that the drain valve is closed.
Check the voltage rating on the serial plate which is located on the back of the unit. Plug the unit into properly
grounded outlet/power source. Do not attempt to use Direct Current (D.C.). Follow the procedures indicated in the
"Precautionary Instructions." Do not attempt to use the unit if it is not properly grounded.
Explanation of Symbols on Equipment
Attention: See accompanying documentation
Type B Equipment: An adequate degree of protection against electric shock is provided, particularly
regarding allowable leakage currents and reliability of protective earth connection.

Maintenance

Care of Unit
The ColPaC Master Chilling Unit is equipped with a hydraulic capillary type thermostat in order to maintain the proper
ColPaC temperature evenly in the chilling chamber. The unit may be left connected to the electrical outlet, providing
a ready supply of chilled ColPaCs.
Periodically, the accumulated frost in the chilling chamber will build up to a point where the ColPaCs are crowded and
insertion or removal of the packs becomes difficult. The units should be defrosted when this occurs and the inside of
the tank wiped dry with a clean towel or cloth.
Defrosting Unit
1. Disconnect the unit from its power source.
2. Raise the chamber lid and remove ColPaCs. Leave lid open to speed defrosting. A small amount of warm water
may be poured into the unit to speed defrosting.
3. Attach extension drain hose to the valve, located beneath chilling chamber, behind rear access panel.
4. Open bottom drain valve.
5. Allow unit to defrost completely. All excess water must be removed from the chilling chamber before the unit is
started again.
