RECEIVING THE THERMOELECTRIC COOLER
Inspect the thermoelectric cooler. Check for concealed damage that may have occurred during shipment. Look
for dents, scratches, loose assemblies, etc. Damage evident upon receipt should be noted on the freight bill.
Damage should be brought to the attention of the delivering carrier -- NOT to nVent Technical Products -- within
15 days of delivery. Save the carton and packing material and request an inspection. Then le a claim with the
delivering carrier.
nVent Technical Products cannot accept responsibility for freight damages; however, we will assist you in any
way possible.
HANDLING & TESTING THE THERMOELECTRIC COOLER
TEST FOR FUNCTIONALITY BEFORE MOUNTING THE THERMOELECTRIC COOLER TO THE ENCLOSURE.
Refer to nameplate for proper electrical current requirements, then connect power cord to a properly grounded
power supply. Minimum circuit ampacity should be at least 125% of the amperage shown in the design data
section for the appropriate model. No other equipment should be connected to this circuit to prevent overloading.
Operate the thermoelectric cooler for ve (5) to ten (10) minutes. No excessive noise or vibration should be
evident during this run period. The ambient air fans, and the enclosure impeller should be running.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Inspect thermoelectric cooler. Verify functionality before mounting the thermoelectric cooler, see
HANDLING & TESTING THE THERMOELECTRIC COOLER on page 3.
2. Using the cutout dimensions shown in this manual, prepare the air openings, and mounting bolt
hole pattern for the enclosure.
3. Using the gasket kit provided, install gaskets to thermoelectric cooler.
4. Mount thermoelectric cooler on enclosure using mounting fasteners provided.
5. If routing a drain tube, assure that the exit point of the tube is below the outlet and lower than the
lowest point on any trap or loop by at least 6 inches.
6. Refer to top of nameplate for electrical requirements. Connect the power cord to a properly
grounded power supply.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The controller cooling setpoint is factory preset to +25 C. The heating setpoint is factory preset to +5 C.
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Each time the electrical power to the thermoelectric cooler is interrupted and reapplied the unit will go through its
startup routine.
Operating the thermoelectric cooler below the minimum ambient temperature or above the maximum ambient
temperatures indicated on the nameplate voids all warranties.
It is recommended that the warranty section of this manual be read in order to familiarize yourself with
parameters of restricted operation.
The moisture that the enclosure air can contain is limited. If moisture ows from the drain tube continuously this
can only mean that ambient air is entering the enclosure. Be aware that frequent opening of the enclosure’s door
admits humid air, which the thermoelectric cooler must then dehumidify.
MAINTENANCE
Beyond occasional inspection for dust or dirt buildup no special maintenance should be required.
