CHAPTER 5
INSTALLATION
Carefully remove the appliance from the carton or
crate. Note: Do not discard the carton and other
packaging material until you have inspected the unit for
hidden damage and tested it for proper operation.
Warning!
These appliances are heavy and can be easily damaged
if not removed from the skid correctly. Use the proper
lifting equipment and protect the base from damage
while lifting appliance from the skid. Do not drop
appliance on its base or extreme damage will occur.
Location
To ensure proper operation of this appliance and its
components, this appliance must be installed on a
stable, plumb and level surface.
DO NOT store or use any flammable liquids or allow
flammable vapors near this appliance or any other
appliance.
DO NOT install this appliance in any area where it may
be affected by any adverse conditions such as steam,
grease, dripping water, high temperatures, etc.
Disconnect the appliance from power before
performing any service or maintenance operation which
may require parts. This appliance must be grounded
properly.
These appliances require a dedicated circuit and cannot
be shared by another appliance or damage to
compressor, motors, blown fuses or tripped circuits will
be cause, which will not be covered under warranty.
Because this appliance rapidly moves air in the
chamber, to remove heat from the product, clearances
must be maintained as specified for the evaporator(s)
coil(s). This appliance must have adequate ventilation
space to allow heat to be dissipated from the
condenser, as well as it needs adequate ventilation to
cool the condenser. Please allow a minimum or 24” air
gap from the back, sides and from the front for
adequate ventilation. In locations with excessive dust,
dirt, cleaning of the condenser coil may need to be
performed on a fairly regular basis. This is the
customer’s responsibility and must be performed by a
qualified service technician or damage to the
components can and will occur. Do not use caustic
cleaners on the condenser coil as it may cause leaks to
the sealed system.

The success or failure of the blast chiller/freezer is greatly impacted by the proper installation of this product.
Because the design of the blast chiller/freezer requires it to move a large volume of air through the evaporator
coil, to allow the condenser to dissipate that heat outside of the chamber, the clearance specifications must
be followed. The coil(s) are designed to adequately handle the rated BTU capacity in a very controlled space.
Overloading, installing the coils in too large of an area, failure to maintain clearances, etc., will all impact the
performance of this system.
Installation
This manual will cover all models of the blast chiller/freezer. Please locate the diagram and installation
instructions that closely matches your product. The various models will consist of either a Master Coil
(TREVAASSY01) or 1 or 2 Slave Coils (TREVAASST02).
Assemble the panels, paying attention to the wall where the coil is to be installed on. There must be a
minimum of ½” plywood built into the panels to adequately support the mounting of the coil. Once the
mounting surface is identified, find the center of the wall and mark it.
If this is a one (1) coil system, the black line will be the center of chamber. Measure a minimum of 6” off the
floor and make a mark (orange line). The outside of the coil is 28”, so ½ of that is 14”. Measure from the center
line 14” to the right or left and make a mark (blue lines), that will be the outside edge of the coil mounting.
Before mounting the coil ensure that there is at least 4” minimum to 7” maximum from each side of the coil to
the wall. If the desired clearances are met, then before mounting the coil, determine where the refrigeration
lines exit the top of the coil, as well as the electrical connection conduits and drill those holes in the ceiling.
Make the holes as small as possible, so they can be easily sealed. Plan for the installation of the drain. This is a
¾” female fitting that can be used for copper, PVC, CPVC, galvanized or a hose. Ensure that the drain has the
correct pitch, to allow if to drain rapidly. There is no need to install a heat tape. If a trap is installed, it must be
outside the chamber. Fasten the coil to the wall using a minimum or 6 screws on each side, in the holes provided.
These screws must be stainless steel, #10, hex head or Phillip screws, 1” in length.

minimum of ½” plywood built into the panels to adequately support the mounting of the coils. Once the
mounting surface is identified, find the center of the wall and mark it.
If this is a two (2) coil system, the black line will be the center of the chamber. Measure a minimum of 6” off
the floor and make a mark (orange line). Next measure the distance between the center line of the chamber
and either inside wall and make a mark (red lines). This will be the center of each coil. The outside of the coil is
28”, so ½ of that is 14”. Measure from the center line 14” to the right or left and make a mark (blue lines), that
will be the outside edge of the coil mounting. Before mounting the coils ensure that there is at least 4”
minimum to 7” maximum from each side of the coil to the wall or to the adjacent coil. If the desired
clearances are met, then before mounting the coil, determine where the refrigeration lines exit the top of the
coil, as well as the electrical connection conduits and drill those holes in the ceiling. Make the holes as small as
possible, so they can be easily sealed. Plan for the installation of the drain. This is a ¾” female fitting that can
be used for copper, PVC, CPVC, galvanized or a hose. Ensure that the drain has the correct pitch, to allow if to

minimum of ½” plywood built into the panels to adequately support the mounting of the coils. Once the
mounting surface is identified, find the center of the wall and mark it.
If this is a three (3) coil system, the black line will be the center of the chamber. Measure a minimum of 6” off
the floor and make a mark (orange line). Next measure the distance between the center line of the chamber
and either inside wall and make a mark (red line). This will be the center of each coil. The outside of the coil is
28”, so ½ of that is 14”. Measure from the center line 14” to the right or left and make a mark (blue line), that
will be the outside edge of the coil mounting. Before mounting the coils ensure that there is at least 4” minimum
to 7” maximum from each side of the coil to the wall or to the adjacent coil. If the desired clearances are met,
then before mounting the coil, determine where the refrigeration lines exit the top of the coil, as well as the
electrical connection conduits and drill those holes in the ceiling. Make the holes as small as possible, so they
can be easily sealed. Plan for the installation of the drain. This is a ¾” female fitting that can be used for copper,

using a minimum or 6 screws on each side, in the holes provided. These screws must be stainless steel, #10, hex
head or Phillip screws, 1” in length.

Top Bottom
This is the typical triple coil system, such as the TCFM1200 or TQCM1200. This setup contains a master
(TREVAASSY01) and 2 slave coils TREVAASSY02). The master coil contains the air temperature and coil
sensors. The air temperature sensor is located in the upper right hand corner of the coil. This coil is always
mounted in the middle of the cabinet, between the 2 slave coils. The installation of the electrical box and front
control panel will be covered later in this manual.

Refrigeration Piping
When piping any refrigeration systems in, the rules still apply. Any vertical rise of more than 20 feet, requires
an oil trap installed in the suction line. Any refrigeration piping run of more than 50 feet requires increasing
the piping diameter by 1 size, i.e.: 1 1/8” suction to 1 ¼” suction, 3/8” liquid to ½” liquid. Coils can be
manifolded together above the box, per the below example. NOTE: The solenoid valve must be provided in
the field and must be located within 6 feet of the electrical box, so the provided electrical can be used.
The same set up can be used for a 2 coil system.
Make sure that long sweep 90 degree elbows are used and use Tee’s for the connection points. After assembly
and pressure checking the system with dry nitrogen, ensure that all suction lines and wrapped and sealed with
foam insulation

Control Panel Mounting
The control must be mounted in an ambient controlled environment. It cannot be mounted in an excessively
hot, cold or a high humidity area. The control panel mounts to the front of the Blast Chiller compartment and
should be mounted a minimum of 60” to the center of the screen or a maximum of 70” to the center of the
screen. ½” plywood backing must be provided in the panel for the control panel to be mounted to. To access
the mounting bracket, remove the 4 screws from the bezel and carefully remove the control. The display is
connected by a wire connector and can be removed for installation. It only connects one way, so ensure it is
reconnected before re-installing the display. The control box assembly can be attached to the front of the
Blast Chiller cabinet by means of 4 #10 stainless steel ¾” screws. Please ensure the control panel is level and
plumb. Next install the conduit cover backing plate behind the non-metallic conduit and fasten it with #10
stainless steel screws. The cover and backing plate can be trimmed if they are too long. Slide the stainless steel
cover over the backing plate and seal to the control top with silver or clear silicone.
