AN OVERVIEW: THE FULL LINE FROM LAB-LINE: EXPLOSION-PROOFREFRIGERATORS AND FREEZERS.

Conventional refrigerators and freezers are not only unsuitable for storing flammable materials, they can create potential hazards in a facility. Such units have several components in their electrical and refrigeration systems which can trigger explosions of flammable air-vapor mixtures inside the unit or from the immediate surrounding area.

Lab-Line offers the largest explosion-proof selection in the industry, including single and 2-door upright refrigerators and freezers, horizontal chest freezers, and undercounter refrigerators.

Motors and thermostats are designed to prevent the arcing which can ignite a flammable air-vapor mixtures, In addition, each unit has wiring, splices, a thermostat, a relay and a compressor motor safely housed within an explosion-proof enclosure of construction suitable for use in Class I, Groups C and D. This means that things like the surface temperature of compressors will remain below

the flashpoint of any flammable material likely to be found in Class I, Groups Cand D locations.

All models have heavy-gauge, rigid, braced-steel construction with a durable enamel finish. Interiors have epoxy enamel or ABS plastic construction. Each unit is insulated throughout for energy-efficient operation.

These Lab-Line units will prevent potentially destructive explosions in any facility by meeting the standards established by Underwriters’ Laboratory, Inc., OSHA and National Fire Protection Association for storage of hazardous materials.

Lab-Line Explosion-Proof Refrigerators and Freezers are 100% explosion-proof. They also meet National Fire Protection Standards as found in Articles 500-501 and provide total protection while storing reagents at or below ambient temperatures.

7

EXPLOSION-PROOFREFRIGERATORS/FREEZERS: (Con’t)

Explosion-proof models are specifically designed and engineered to prevent the triggering of an explosion inside or outside of the unit in a Class I, Groups C and D hazardous material environment.

These models feature stainless steel refrigeration components that are more resistant to attack from corrosive vapors than are aluminum or epoxy-coated aluminum.

It is important to note that Explosion-Proof models must be connected to the power supply source by rigid metal conduit or mineral-insulated cable with proper fittings suitable for Class I, Groups C and D hazardous locations. In addition, the wires inside the conduit must be sealed.

All units carry a 12 month warranty.

REFRIGERATORS & FREEZERS





AN OVERVIEW: THE FULL LINE FROM LAB-LINE: FLAMMABLEMATERIAL STORAGE REFRIGERATORS AND FREEZERS.

These Lab-Line units will prevent potentially destructive explosions in any facility by meeting the standards established by Underwriters’ Laboratory, Inc., OSHA and National Fire Protection Association for storage of hazardous materials. They also are designed to comply with National Fire Protection Association Standards Nos. 45 and 99, as well as OSHA Article No. CFR 1910.308. Lab-Line Flammable Materials Storage Refrigerators/Freezers are manufactured for safe, cold storage of volatile materials.

Flammable Material Storage (FMS) Refrigerators/Freezers will prevent an explosion from occurring inside the unit. These units have no internal electrical components which could trigger an explosion of hazardous materials inside the unit. (They are NOT designed for use in Class I, Groups C and D environments—for these locations use a Lab-Line Explosion-Proof Refrigerator.) However, FMS units are not suitable for use in Class I, Group C and D environments.

This complete line includes single and 2-door upright refrigerators and freezers, horizontal chest freezers, and undercounter refrigerators.

AN OVERVIEW: THE FULL LINE FROM LAB-LINE: CORROSION-RESISTANT REFRIGERATORS AND FREEZERS.

Aluminum or epoxy-coated refrigeration components are susceptible to attack by caustic materials and strong acids. These components will corrode, and, as a result, will leak—allowing Freon to escape. This inevitably causes the compressor to fail.

Lab-Line units eliminate these problems by utilizing stainless steel condensing coils, evaporators and shelves.

Units come 5 shelves (depending on model) which are adjustable on 1” centers, along with a storage basket. Units can be utilized either as a freezer or refrigerator. They can include porcelain enamel interior and stainless steel door liners for improved corrosion resistance over ABS plastic or enameled steel. A locking door is standard.

Both explosion-proof and flammable material storage versions are available.

SECTION 6

INSTALLATION





LOCATIONLocate your unit in the most convenient place and near a grounded electric

outlet. If units are placed on a countertop, the front should be 3" or more back from the edge to avoid accidental tipping of the unit.

If possible, locate your unit out of direct sunlight and away from heatsources such as a radiator, stove or heat duct.

38

CLEARANCE:Position the unit so that there is at least 12” clearance on the top, 3” at the

back, and 2” on each side. It is recommended that even more space be left at the back of the unit in case maintenance is required.

ELECTRICALUnits must be connected to a grounded outlet matching the nameplate.If you are not sure about the outlet, you should contact a qualified

electrician for assistance.The unit should always be connected to its own individual outlet.

CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, THE GROUNDING PRONGSFROM THE 3-PRONG POWER CORD SUPPLIED WITH ALL UNITS.CAUTION: DO NOT USE ELECTRICAL EXTENSION CORDS WHICH MAY RESULT IN VOLTAGE LOSS AND POSSIBLE HAZARDOUS OPERATION.NOTE: EXPLOSION-PROOF UNITS DO NOT COME WITH LINE CORDS ,THEY REQUIRE RIGID CONDUIT TO BE RUN DIRECTLY IN ORDER TO SEAL OFF THE FITTING ON THERMOSTAT HOUSING. THIS SHOULD BE DONE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN FOLLOWING ALL LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES. IF ANY QUESTION PERTAINING TO ELECTRICAL SAFETY ARISES, PLEASE REFER TO ARTICLE 501 OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE.

HOW TO SEAL KILLARK® BOX CONDUIT WITH FIBER AND SEALING COMPOUNDTO HELP PROTECT AGAINST EXPLOSIONS:

The purpose of the procedure that follows to build fiber rope dams on the left and right hubs of the horizontal conduit. The fiber rope damns will surround conduit wiring that is housed inside the horizontal conduit.

When both the left and right fiber rope dams have been pressed into place, sealing compound is poured between the two and forms into an air-tight plug.

All of this is done in order to prevent the very real threat of gas entering the Killark box and a resulting serious explosion.

After the unit wires have been pulled through the horizontal conduit the following procedure is required:

• Turn power off at the circuit breaker before proceeding.

• Place a small amount of sealing compound granules (enclosed) into aclean mixing vessel. Add small amounts of water while stirring until a thickpaste is formed, then carefully continue adding smaller amounts of wateruntil a thick gravy consistency is achieved—NOT WATERY. (Discard anymaterial that becomes too stiff to use. Never attempt to restore workabilityby stirring in more water.)

• Locate silver Killark box, back/top-center of unit.

DANGER: DO NOT USE IN THE PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS OR EXPLOSIVE GASES. FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT, CAUSING DEATH OR SEVERE INJURY.

CHILD ENTRAPMENT WARNING

DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT! Before you discard your old refrigerator or freezer:

• Remove door(s),

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

UNIT’S ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING CONDITIONS:POLLUTION DEGREE: 2

INSTALLATION CATEGORY: IIALTITUDE: 2000 Meters MSL (Mean Sea Level)HUMIDITY: 80% maximum, non-condensing

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY: 120VAC or 240VACVOLTAGE TOLERANCE: ±10% of normal rated line

TEMPERATURE: 15ºC to 40ºCPRODUCT USAGE: This product is intended for use indoors only

START-UP PROCEDURE:Rotate the control knob clockwise to lower the temperature and

counterclockwise raise it.To check chamber temperature, place a dial thermometer on a shelf in

the unit. Initially, rotate the temperature control knob to an arbitrary setting. Allow approximately 2 hours for the temperature to initially stabilize. Check the temperature and compare with the dial setting.

Adjust dial further to reach the desired operating temperature. Alwaysallow ½ to 1 hour for the chamber temperature to stabilize.

Because the markings on the dial do not indicate specific temperatures,use them as reference points for any future setting of the temperature.

If the room thermostat is turned below 60ºF at night, you may want to set the temperature control one step colder. It should be left at this setting for the night time period: return temperature control to original setting when the room thermostat is returned to its normal setting.

RESTART PROCEDURE:If unit is unplugged or turned off, allow 3 minutes before restarting

or plugging it back in.

OPERATION: (Con’t)

MANUAL DEFROST PROCEDURE: FOR MODELS 3556-4, 3556-6, 3557-2, 3557-43750 & 3752 ONLY

Do not use any sharp instrument, blade or scraper to remove ice and

43

frost on refrigerator surfaces because of the very real danger of puncturing the cooling coil.

Do not use any electrical device to defrost the unit.When frost accumulates to ¼" or more, the operating efficiency of

the unit will be affected. Use the following procedure to defrost manually:

• Turn the temperature control knob to the OFF setting. • Disconnect the power cord from its outlet. • Remove contents of unit. If practical, wrap contents in paper and then in a

heavy blanket to maintain temperature of items, especially those removedfrom a freezer. Wear protective gloves to prevent frost bite when handlingcold items.

• Open door and allow free circulation of ambient air. • To speed the process, place pan of warm water inside the chamber. • Wipe out the interior. • Replace contents. • Reconnect power cord to outlet and set temperature control to desired

operating temperature.

HOW TO SAVE ENERGY:

• Be sure to follow location suggestions as mentioned in the previousINSTALLATION section.

• Wipe moisture from glassware or other materials before placing them in a

unit. • Don't overcrowd the unit—too many items can increase electrical energy

demand in order to keep everything cool. • Close the door as soon as possible in hot, humid weather. • Make certain that the door is closed tightly. • As soon as frost has accumulated to ¼”, defrost. • Keep containers covered (when possible) to reduce moisture buildup. • Set operating temperature—no colder than necessary—for the items

being refrigerated.


SAFETY TIPS:

44

• After a unit is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces, particularlywhen hands are damp—skin may adhere to the extremely cold surfaces.

• Never disconnect your unit by pulling on the power cord: always grip the

plug securely and pull straight out from the outlet. • Do not use a power cord that shows cracks or abrasions. Have a qualified

electrician repair or replace damaged cords immediately.

In the event that your unit is not operating properly, check the following before calling for service assistance—this may save you the cost of unnecessary service calls.

SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSES OF PROBLEM

Unit not operating: • Make certain that the unit is connected to a grounded outlet.• Make certain that temperature control knob is ON.• Check that circuit breaker is not tripped or fuse is not

blown.

Unit runs • Make certain that there is no heavy frost accumulation. If continuously: there is, defrost unit.

• Look at condenser to see if there is layer of dust or lint. Clean if required with a dry brush or vacuum.• A leak around the door gasket will allow cold air to escape.

This causes unit to work harder than necessary to maintain cold temperatures. Re-seat or replace the gasket if worn.

• If you have temperature set too cold, this may cause unit to run continuously. Check optimum running temperature.• Is the ambient air over 43ºC (109ºF), or the units located close to heat sources? If possible, move to a different location.• An unusually high frequency of door openings and closings can increase operating load. Unit will stabilize as these are decreased.

Noise problems: • This can be caused by contents of unit being set too close and rattling against each other. Rearrange contents as needed.• Hissing or gurgling noise is caused by refrigerating fluid circulating and is normal.• Noise can result if unit is not level on floor. Check with level.• Fan noise—normal air flow can cause this—not a problem.

MAINTENANCEBE ADVISED:

MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO SERVICE OR REPAIR A LAB-LINE UNDER WARRANTY BEFORE CONSULTING YOUR LAB-LINE DEALER. AFTERTHE WARRANTY PERIOD, SUCH CONSULTATION IS STILL ADVISED,

ESPECIALLY WHEN THE REPAIR MAY BE TECHNICALLY SOPHISTICATED OR DIFFICULT.

IF ASSISTANCE IS NEEDED BEYOND WHAT THE DISTRIBUTOR CAN PROVIDE, PLEASE CALL LAB-LINE CUSTOMER SERVICEDEPARTMENT: 1-800/LAB-LINE.

NO MERCHANDISE, HOWEVER, SHOULD BE RETURNED DIRECTLY TO LAB-LINE WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL FROM LAB-LINE.

CLEANING OF UNITS: BEFORE BEGINNING

• Disconnect power cord from its outlet. • Set the temperature control to the OFF position. • The unit designs permit easy and rapid cleaning and should not take more

than a few minutes. Remember to wear protective gloves to prevent frostbite, especially when removing items from freezer units.

• Do not use abrasive scouring powders, waxes, solvents, furniture polish,

undiluted detergents or cleansers containing petroleum products on thesurfaces of units.

CLEANING INTERIOR/EXTERIOR/DOOR GASKETS:A solution of mild soap and water can be used for cleaning the interior,

exterior and door gaskets with a soft, clean cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly before reconnecting and turning on the unit.

CONDENSER:With forced-fan vented units, remove the screws which mount the grill

to the unit. Pull temperature control knobs straight out—this will expose condenser for cleaning.
