OPERATION
Configuration
GN SERIES REFRIGERATED WELL
-
OPERATION
Mechanical
Features
The drop-in well consists of a main
assembly, with integral refrigeration
equipment, in which trays and
gastronorm dishes of various sizes
can be mounted.
The control panel is located on the
main assembly, but since it is
connected by a two metre cable, it
can be easily re-located onto joinery.
Food Display
Options
This versatile refrigerated well can be configured to display food in a variety of
ways:
On adjustable height trays, using dishes or platters
On trays of ice, for fresh fish or similar
In gastronorm dishes of various sizes
Operating
Temperature
The operating temperature of the well is governed by a digital controller.
This is pre-set to maintain the correct chilled air temperature of 2°C to 4°C.
Care must be taken to load the well correctly, to ensure correct product
temperature.
Condensate
and Drain
Condensate water will be released during defrost cycles.
Ideally this should be routed to an external drain, but a removable container
could be used.
An integral boil-off unit is available, as an optional extra, at the time of ordering.
However, unless really good forced ventilation is provided, integral boil-
off trays are not recommended due to potential moisture damage to the
joinery.
Only FPG designed and manufactured joinery is guaranteed against
moisture damage.
Optional
Lighting
An optional lighting gantry is available.
The well assembly has provision for easily mounting the gantry and is pre-wired
to supply power for the overhead LED lighting.
The lighting switch is on the gantry.

Display Mode
GN SERIES REFRIGERATED WELL
-
OPERATION
Choice of Mode
It is important to select an appropriate display mode, to suit the type of food and
the type of dish.
The food should lie below the top lip of the well, and must not block the air
vents.
The actual food temperature can be influenced by many variables, and it is
important to regularly check actual food temperatures with a thermometer.
Display Trays
The display trays can be set to one of three
heights.
Insert the tray support bearers into the
chosen slots, pushing them down to fully
engage the locating tabs.
All trays must be set horizontal and at the
same height.
Choose either the flat side or dished side of the trays, whichever is appropriate.
Gastronorm
Dishes
To use Gastronorm dishes, set the trays at
their lowest level, and insert the dish
support rails across the top of the well.
To use 150mm dishes, the unused display
trays must be removed to gain extra depth.

OPERATION
Power Supply
Ensure that power is connected to the cabinet.
Turn on the main power switch. The condenser and evaporator fans will run.
Turn on
Refrigeration
Turn on the refrigeration switch. The compressor will run, and the well
temperatures will begin to fall.
The temperature controller is pre-set to maintain the air temperatures at 2-
4C. It should not need adjustment.
Pre-chilled
Food
Load the refrigerated well with pre-chilled
product.
The well is designed to maintain the
temperature of pre-chilled product below
4C.
If warm product is introduced, there
could be a considerable delay before the
operating temperature falls to the normal
operating level.
Loading
Restrictions
To maintain the correct food temperature, it is important that the chilled air flow
is not disturbed.
Do not load food above the top lip of the well
Do not block the air vents on either side of the well
Draughts
Strong draughts, blowing across the top of the well, can disturb the cold air flow
and cause uneven cooling.
If the well must be located near a door or ventilation fan, screens may have to
be used to deflect draughts.
Defrost Cycle
Note that the defrost times are set from when the refrigeration is first turned on.
If they are required at a particular time, you must turn on the refrigeration two
hours before the first defrost required.
The cycles will then occur every two hours, provided that the refrigeration
remains on.

Operating Routines
GN SERIES REFRIGERATED WELL
-
OPERATION
Monitor Food
Temperature
It is recommended that the temperature of displayed food be monitored at
regular intervals during the day.
Each displayed dish should be checked.
In general, perishable food should be kept below 4°C.
After Hours
To conserve power, the refrigeration should be turned off after hours or at night.
Remove all food and place it in refrigerated night storage.
When the refrigeration is turned on again, allow it to run for about half an hour
before replacing the pre-chilled products.
Cleaning
It is recommended that wells be cleaned at the end of the working day, since
they need to be shut down for this. For cleaning instructions and maintenance
see the information in this manual.
De-frost Cycle
The well will de-frost automatically twelve times per day. The well should NOT
be temperature tested within ½ hour of a de-frost programme being completed.
The first defrost cycle will occur two hours after the refrigeration is first switched
on.
Defrost cycles will start every two hours, and will be terminated as soon as the
temperature probe signals that the cooling coil is free of ice. This form of
control improves the overall efficiency of the equipment.
If you suspect that the defrost system is not working properly, have it checked
by a qualified service person.
Operators must not attempt to adjust the refrigeration controller.

OPERATION
Food
Temperature
In general, perishable food should be kept below 4°C.
The well MUST have reached its working temperature, before food is loaded.
Food MUST be pre-chilled to the required temperature, before it is placed in the
display dishes. Alternatively a whole filled display dish can be pre-chilled, and
exchanged for a dish in the well.
Display Time
The permissible display time will depend on the ambient conditions and food
type.
Assuming correct temperatures are maintained, the display times will largely
depend on the humidity of the air.
Use of ice, in the inverted display trays, will achieve maximum display times for
fresh fish etc.
Times can be greatly increased if lids are used.
Unsuitable
Food Type
The refrigerated well must not be used for the display of ice cream, or other
products requiring a storage temperature below 4°C.

GN SERIES REFRIGERATED WELL -CLEANING
Stainless Steel
Items
The well, supports, grills and stainless steel
dishes should be cleaned with hot soapy
water. Do not use abrasive pads or cleaners,
as these may damage surfaces.
Small stainless steel parts may be cleaned
in a dishwasher.
Well Cleaning
Sweep out, or use a vacuum cleaner, to
remove any debris from the well.
Be sure to check that there is no debris in
the drain holes.
Cooling Coil
To access the cooling coil, remove the
screws that secure the fan deck, and then
lift the fan deck and remove the coil cover.
A Wet-and-Dry vacuum cleaner should be
used, since there is likely to be some water
in the bottom. Finally, wipe out the bottom
with a damp sanitized
cloth.
Caution: The cooling fins
are very sharp. Take extra care when cleaning this area. Do
not bend the fins over, as this would restrict the air flow and
degrade cabinet performance.
Do not pour water into the base, unless the well is
connected to a drain.
To avoid possible damage when replacing fan decks, be sure
that cables are not trapped by metal parts.

Cleaning Routines
GN SERIES REFRIGERATED WELL
-
CLEANING
Schedules
Regular cleaning schedules are required to maintain optimum performance.
Failure to carry out routine cleaning/servicing schedules will void the warranty on
the refrigeration equipment.
Louvers
Use a vacuum cleaner to keep
all ventilation louvers, in the
joinery and the well base
assembly, free of dust and fluff.
Condenser
Radiator
For efficient refrigeration
performance, the condenser
radiator must be kept clean,
(see Servicing, Condenser
Radiator).
Regular vacuuming and
cleaning of the pre-filter will
prevent a build up of dust and
fluff, but the fins must be
cleaned with compressed air
during scheduled servicing by a
refrigeration engineer.
Inspection
As part of the cleaning routine, the controls, mechanical parts and electrical
wiring should be inspected for damage, deterioration or need of adjustment.
Correction
If any small faults are found, have them attended to promptly by a competent
serviceman. Don’t wait until they cause a complete breakdown.
