FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This unit consists of an insulated storage cabinet with
drawers, an evaporator coil, a thermal expansion valve,
a thermostat, and a compartment to make remote
refrigeration and electrical connections. It is designed
with the intent and purpose of storing food items.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The design of the refrigerated cabinet focuses primarily on
the safe storage of food products requiring refrigeration. In
engineering, considerable attention was placed on its
functionality and its serviceability.
Special care in the initial loading of the storage compartment
should be taken. It is suggested that the loading be
scheduled in three equal portions allowing three hours
between each loading.
The chilled food compartment is designed for the storage
of perishable food items that require a temperature range
of 37 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit. It is a general rule that
adequate spacing is allowed between stored items to allow
for proper air circulation.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
INTRODUCTION
To ensure the longest and most trouble free operation of the
unit, a thorough maintenance schedule is required to be
adhered to periodically. The maintenance system should
be designed to maximize the efficient use of maintenance
personnel, reduce down time, and provide the orderly
acquisition of spare parts support.
The Middleby refrigeration cabinet will generally be in
operation in a facility where scheduled maintenance is
performed according to Maintenance Index Plans. Your unit
is no exception to required maintenance. This section of the
manual is intended as an alternative to any standard
maintenance program that may pre-exist. The preventive
maintenance schedule is based upon similar maintenance
requirements for commercial refrigeration equipment.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE ACTION INDEX
If you do not have a Maintenance Index Plan, one is included
for you in Table 4.1.
PREPARATION FOR MAINTENANCE
Since many areas affected by the maintenance schedule are
electrically supplied, it is recommended that the system be
de-energized prior to making the inspections.
MAINTENANCE
Weekly Inspection
1. The unit should first be de-energized.
2. Using a vacuum or small hand broom, brush the
condenser in a vertical motion to remove any dust or
debris that may have accumulated.
Monthly Inspection
1. Check the evaporator drain line at both the inlet
and outlet ends to make certain that there are no
obstructions. It is not recommended to use any
chemicals in clearing a clogged drain. The preferred
method of unstopping an obstructed drain is to use
compressed air. Approximately 60 lbs. should be
sufficient. Simply remove the drain line at the
evaporator coil and attach an air-line to it.
2. With the unit in a cooling cycle, use a flashlight and
locate the refrigerant sight glassi. If the compressor
has been running for three minutes there should be no
visible bubbles.
3. If bubbles are present:
a. Determine if there is a leak by using a halide or
electronic leak detector.
b. Repair leak(s).
WARNING
The system should be de-energized when checking
for leaks.
i. If a leak is found on a flared fitting, it can often be
repaired by simply tightening the brass flare nut 1/4
of a turn. If tightening does not repair the leak, it
may be necessary to reflare the tubing.
ii. If a leak is found on a brazed joint, it will be
necessary to pump down the system’s refrigerant
charge to remedy the problem.
iii. To pump the refrigerant into the receiver, you must
first connect service gauges to the system at the
suction valve on the compressor and the liquid valve
on the receiver. Purge the gauges before opening
the system’s valves to avoid contamination. Run the
receiver (liquid or high pressure) valve all the way in
to stop the refrigerant from exiting the receiver.
Start the unit and allow it to run until the suction or
low-pressure gauge reads 5 lbs. When it reaches
5 lbs., de-energize the system.
iv. Once pumped down, the necessary repairs can be
made.
4 Using a mild non-abrasive detergent and soft cloth,
wipe the interior lining beginning with the top and
working down. Also, wipe the gasket and where it sits
on the cabinet exterior.
5. Check the condenser fan motor and make certain that
it is not loose. Inspect the fan for cracks and make
sure that it is tight on the motori.
6. To inspect the evaporator motor, first turn the unit off.
Then, remove the drain line from the evaporator pan.
Loosen the four screws that hold the shroud. Lower
the shroud and disconnect the polarized electrical
connection. With the shroud out of the cabinet,
proceed to inspect the motor mounting bolts and the
fan for cracks or excessive play.
7. Using a mild detergent and water, wipe the vinyl
gasket. Make certain to also clean under the gasket
to remove any mildew or residue.
8. Using a mild, non-abrasive detergent and warm water,
wipe the cabinet exterior. When cleaning always follow
the grain of the stainless steel to prevent scratching
or marring of the finish surface.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
7
Printed in USA 12/02 Refrigerated Base-Remote © 2002
Annual Maintenance
1. Check all refrigerant lines for leaks or fatigue. Make
certain that no exposed copper tubing is in contact with
any other metal surface. If there is contact, install an
insulating material between the two metal components.
2. With the breaker at the main panel “OFF”, inspect the
system’s wiring. Look for a tight fit of all connections
and make certain that the wire restraining devices are
tight. Inspect all wires and cords, paying particular
attention to nicks or age cracks in the insulation.
3. Visually inspect the outer panel and components of the
cabinet. Check screws and bolts to make certain that
they are tight. Also, make sure that the bolts that
secure the base frame to the deck are tight.
Three Year Frequency
1. Replace the drawer gaskets. To accomplish this, it is
first necessary to remove all products from the
refrigerated compartment to avoid spoilage. Open the
drawers and remove the old gasket. The gaskets snap
in and out of a channel on the back side of the door.
Clean the track thoroughly. Replace the old gasket
with the new one by snapping it into place.
2. Inspect all motors and shaftsifor both noise and wear.
If they show age, replace them.
3. With the main power off, remove the condensing unit
from its compartment and inspect all wiring. Also,
remove the cover from the controls and check them to
make certain that they are operational and do not show
signs of wear.
4. Inspect the operation of the drawer slide assembly.
Make certain that the moving parts do not show any
signs of wear. Make sure that all screws are tight.
5. To recalibrate the thermometer, remove it from the
cabinet. Using a small, flat screwdriver, remove the
lens. Prepare an ice water bath and immerse the
thermometer bulb at least two inches into the ice bath.
WIthin 30 seconds the indicator dial should read 32
degrees Fahrenheit. If it does not, it needs to be
recalibrated. Do this by placing your index finger on
the opposite side of the needle that needs to move.
Then, using a flat screwdriver, turn the screw at the
center of the dial 1/4 of a turn in the direction you want
to move the dial. Repeat the procedure until the
needle is on 32 degrees. See Figure 4.1.

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
INTRODUCTION
This chapter focuses on the instruction needed in the
removal and replacement of certain components. It also
addresses the repair of components not listed under the
scheduled maintenance index covered in the Scheduled
Maintenance section.
The level of skills required to perform the service or repair will
vary. Some may require specific training while others may be
performed by any type of mechanic. It is up to the individual
and his/her supervisor to determine the breadth of knowledge
required to perform the necessary service or to make the
necessary repairs.
It is also important to know that any procedure requiring the
handling of refrigerant requires proper certification.
The service or repair items are limited to those parts listed in
Table 7-3.
REPAIR PROCEDURES
7. The final step in removing the compressor is to
disconnect it from its mounting. To free the
compressor, remove the wire clips on each of the four
feet.
8. To install the compressor, place it in position on the
base and reinstall the four wire clips.
9. Reattach the suction and discharge valve blocks to the
appropriate sides of the compressor.
10. Reattach the low-pressure control capillary tube and
service fittings to the suction side of the compressor.
11. Reattach the suction line to the compressor.
12. In reconnecting the high-pressure line, it is necessary
to first prepare the line’s end. Using a fine sandpaper
or emery cloth, clean the residue off of the end. Also,
clean the connection on the compressor. Apply flux to
both ends and braze the connections into place.
13. Remove the valve stem cap from the suction valve
block on the side of the compressor. Run the valve
stem all of the way out and then in one turn clockwise.
14. Place the refrigeration service manifold gauge hoses
on the suction and high-side valves. Attach a bottle of
refrigerant to the charging hose and charge the system
with 150 psi of vapor. Using an electronic leak
detector, check the new connections for leaks. Should
a leak appear, evacuate the charge and repair the leak.
Repeat the leak check process again.
15. If the system checks out with no leaks, recover the test
charge using a vacuum recovery pump.
16. With the system pressure at zero, connect the vacuum
pump and evacuate the system. The pump should run
for one hour. The vacuum pump should pull the
system down to 30 inches of vacuum.
17. Reattach the electrical terminal box and secure all
wiring.
18. Check the refrigeration tag on the unit for the number
of ounces of refrigerant to place into the system for
start-up. Monitor the pressure on both the suction and
discharge sides of the manifold gauges. As the
temperature in the storage area begins to fall, check
the refrigerant flow through the sight glass. The unit is
fully charged when there are no bubbles in the sight
glass. If after five minutes of operation, bubbles are
still present, it may be necessary to add more
refrigerant (add refrigerant in small amount to keep
from overcharging).
WARNING
Prior to performing any work on the refrigeration system,
it is required that the unit be de-energized.
Replacement of Compressor Motori
1. Evacuate the refrigerant from the system using a
refrigeration vacuum pump.
NOTE: Federal laws require the proper handling and
disposal of refrigerant. It is unlawful to release any
refrigerant into the atmosphere.
2. Disconnect the electrical power to the unit. This is
done by turning off the circuit in the main supply panel.
It should be noted on the panel that the refrigerator is
being serviced and that the breaker must remain off.
3. Find the electrical terminal box on the side of the
compressor and remove the front cover. Disconnect
the wires from the compressor. Remove the screws
that attach the terminal box to the compressor. At this
point, the compressor will be electrically detached.
4. Using wrenches, remove the suction and discharge
valve stem cover caps on each side of the compressor.
Also, remove the cap nut on the suction and discharge
side as well.
5. Disconnect the high-side line at the compressor. This
is done by heating the brazed connection using an
acetylene and oxygen torch set.
NOTE: Do not apply a flame to a line containing refrigerant.
6. To remove the low-pressure control capillary tube and
service fitting, loosen the 1/4" brass flare nut on the
suction valve.
WARNING
Overcharging a refrigeration system can be dangerous.

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
11
Printed in USA 12/02 Refrigerated Base-Remote © 2002
If the system overcharge is sufficient enough to immerse the
major parts of a hermetic compressor in liquid refrigerant, a
situation has been created that when followed by unusual but
possible circumstances, can lead to compressor housing
seam separation or rupture.
The sequence of circumstances that can lead to compressor
housing seam separation or rupture occurs in the following
manner:
1. The system overcharge immerses the compressor
motor, piston, connecting rods, cylinders, etc. in liquid
refrigerant, thereby effectively forming a hydraulic block
preventing the compressor from starting. This
condition is known as locked rotor.
2. Electrical current continues to flow through the
compressor motor windings that become, in effect,
electric resistance heaters. The heat produced begins
to vaporize the excessive liquid overcharge, causing a
rapid increase in system pressure.
3. If the system compressor protective devices fail for any
reason prior to or during this locked rotor heating cycle
or cycles, liquid refrigerant may be vaporized
sufficiently fast enough to raise the pressure within the
system to extremes far greater that the housing or weld
seam is designed to handle.
4. In some instances where the amount of refrigerant
overcharge is critical in proportion to the system
internal volume, the pressure reached can cause a
compressor housing seam separation or rupture that
can be hazardous.
The remedy to eliminate this exceedingly rare, but potential
hazard is to use correct refrigerant charge amounts and
techniques.
Middleby urges that all individuals responsible for training,
teaching, or advising installation mechanics and service
personnel emphasize proper charging techniques. In
addition, Middleby advises strict adherence to refrigerant
charge amounts specifically recommended by the
manufacturer of the refrigeration, air conditioning, or heat
pump system.
Replacement of Low Pressure Control
1. Disconnect the unit from electrical service.
2. Remove control cover and disconnect electrical
terminals.
3. Disconnect capillary tube.
4. Remove mounting fasteners on control base and install
new control by reversing the procedure.
5. To adjust the control, hook up the service gauges to
the suction and discharge valves and crack them to
allow the gauges to read.
6. Using a standard screwdriver, coarse adjust the control
by turning the adjustment screws on top of the control.
Preset the cut-in and cutout and 68 lbs. and 38 lbs.
respectively for a refrigerator and 25 lbs. and 10 lbs.
respectively for a freezer.
7. Start the system. Allow it to run for five minutes.
Monitor the low side pressure. Fine adjustments will
be required to achieve the prescribed cycling
pressures.
NOTE: Running the suction valve in or out as required to
effectively change the pressures can speed up the control
adjustment process.
Replacement of Thermal Expansion Valve (TXV)
1. Close liquid valve and run compressor until it pumps
refrigerant into the receiver (low side service gauge will
read 1 lbs.). Close the suction line valve.
2. Disconnect the sensor bulb on the suction line.
3. Disconnect the liquid line (1/4") and suction line (3/8")
then remove the TXV.
4. Install new TXV, reconnect lines, and re-fasten the
sensor bulb.
NOTE: It is not recommended to adjust the valve super heat
as this comes pre-set from the factory.
Replacement of Filter Dryeri
1. Close liquid line valve and run compressor until the low
side refrigeration gauge indicates zero lbs., then close
suction.
2. Remove filter dryer from system and replace with new
dryer.
3. Purge system and add refrigerant if needed.
Replacement of Condenser Fan Motori
1. Disconnect all electrical power to the unit.
2. Remove the condensing unit from the condensing unit

4. From the drain exit location, pull the drain through the
penetration of the cabinet.
5. At the bottom of the condensing unit compartment, cut
the drain line retaining strap. The drain line should
now be free.
6. To install the new drain line, reverse the process.
CHARGING THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEMi
1. Connect service gauges to the suction and discharge
service valves then open valves one full turn.
2. If the system is pressurized slightly, open both manifold
gauge valves and purge the service line gauges.
3. With manifold gauge valves closed, start refrigeration
system.
4. Attach a drum of refrigerant to the suction service side
of the manifold gauges and add refrigerant until the
liquid sight glass is clear of bubbles.
RECALIBRATING THE THERMOMETER
1. To recalibrate the thermometer, remove it from the
cabinet. Using a small, flat screwdriver, remove the
lens. Prepare an ice water bath and immerse the
thermometer bulb at least two inches into the ice bath.
Within 30 seconds the indicator dial should read 32
degrees Fahrenheit. If it does not, it needs to be
recalibrated. Do this by placing your index finger on
the opposite side of the needle that needs to move.
Then, using a flat screwdriver, turn the screw at the
center of the dial 1/4 of a turn in the direction you want
to move the dial. Repeat the procedure until the
needle is on 32 degrees. See Figure 4.1.

INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
Note: Before unpacking the unit, note any crate markings
and check for damage to crating. Notify the carrier if there
should appear to be damage to the unit.
The unit is shipped directly from the manufacturing factory
securely fastened to a single pallet then protected by an
external wrapping.
1. After inspection, carefully remove all external
wrappings and other protective coverings.
2. Review the installation section of the manual
completely prior to installing the unit.
3. Discard crating materials.
INSTALLATION
1. Before moving the unit to the installation sight, double-
check passageways to ensure that the unit will move
through without modification.
Note: In certain instances, it may be necessary to remove
the drawers. This will allow the unit to fit through tighter
spaces.
2. Position the unit to allow for sufficient ventilation.
Typically, approximately 3" clearance from walls and
other equipment is sufficient.
3. Level the cabinet from front to back and side to side.
This is important so that the cabinet will not be pulled
out of square.
4. Evaporator coil drain lines are factory installed and are
either plumbed into a condensate evaporator pan or
the condensate evaporative base of the condensing
unitito eliminate the need for exterior plumbing. Make
certain that the drain outlet is located such that the
condensate falls into the pan or base. On units with
remotely located refrigeration, the condensate
evaporator pan is optional.
5. Check the door gasket to make certain that it is sealing
properly to the cabinet.
6. Before applying electrical power to the unit, you should
first check the electrical characteristics of the
condensing unit to ensure that they agree with those of
the electrical supply source.
CAUTION
Low or excessive voltage can severely damage the
electrical system.
Note: Adjusting any valves or controls on the system is not
necessary and may void your warranty. All valves and
controls have been set by the factory.
