The ProMed and Future medical and laboratory cold cabinets, freezers and combination
cabinets are specifically designed for storage of temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals and
samples.
On receipt of your product from the carrier, examine it carefully.Any signs of damage must
be indicated clearly on the delivery document and reported to both the carrier and the
retailer. Photographs of any damage to the packaging and product should be emailed to
the retailer.
NOTE!
The manufacturer warranty does not cover transportation damages, therefore claims for
damage in transit cannot be made unless they have been validated as detailed above
Examine the product carefully as soon as you receive it. If you notice that it has suffered
from damages during transportation, you must indicate this in the delivery document and
report to the carrier and the retailer.
It is very important to read these installation and operating instructions carefully before
you start using the equipment for the first time. Please keep these instructions in a safe
place for future reference or use by another operator.
By following these instruction, you can improve the product performance and reduce un-
necessary repair costs. Please note that it is important to have your equipment regularly
maintained by a qualified engineer!
The ambient temperature must not exceed +32°C or fall under +10°C. Air circulation is
required above the equipment. Avoid placing the cabinet close to a heat source..
NOTE! The equipment is for indoor use only.
NOTE! In order to comply with electrical safety regulations do not store liquids above the
equipment
The rear and sides of the cabinet can located against a wall, but when placing refrigerated
cabinets next to each other or against an exterior wall, ensure there is a minimum 10mm
ventilation gap between the cabinets.
Adjust the feet to ensure the cabinet is horizontal in all directions, checking with a spirit
level if necessary. Always ensure that all feet are in contact with the ground.
During cold weather deliveries, transporting the cabinet from the carrier into a warm envi-
ronment may cause a temporary build-up of condensation. In these circumstances DO NOT
connect to a power supply until the unit is dry and at room temperature.
When safe to do so connect the power cable from the cabinet to an earthed 230 V / 50 Hz
wall socket with its own 10 A safety fuse. Check the voltage and frequency of the cabinet
from the rating plate. The power socket must be positioned so that it is possible to discon-
nect the socket without having to move the unit.
NOTE! A damaged power supply cord must only be changed by a professional electrician,
authorized by the manufacturer

Before using it, clean the cabinet carefully with mild cleaning agent, e.g. liquid food safe
detergent. Rinse and wipe dry, leave the door open for airing for a while.
ProMed MC 70, 180 and 150/150 models
Place the shelves on the brackets and position the door compartments in their correct
locations. Locate the condensation water container and remember to empty it regularly
Future MC, MF 520, 720, 722 and 1422 models
Place the shelf brackets at the required height and locate the shelves on the brackets.The
cabinet is equipped with anti-tild sliding shelves.The maximum load of the cabinet is 75
kg/shelf.
Pull-out shelves or drawers with bearers are not to be used with glass doors or doors with
glass windows.
Ensure cabinets has reached the required holding temperature prior to loading with
product.
NOTE!
In order to avoid evaporator corrosion always store materials with high acid content in air
tight containers.
NOTE!
In order to ensure good air circulation
within the cabinet DO NOT exceed the load
limit (red mark inside the cabinet on the
back wall) and DO NOT place products on
the floor inside the cabinet. Wire baskets
are available as an optional accessory for
products unsuited for shelves. Please con-
tact your retailer if required.
NOTE!
The freezer cabinet has been designed to hold temperature of item being stored and will
not chill or freeze large amounts of products being placed in the cabinet!

In the normal state, the display shows The internal air temperature (P1) with a +/- 2 °C
variance in normal use. The temperature is displayed with the accuracy of 1/10 degrees and
the set value is the coldest indoor air temperature. The variation goes towards warmer from
this set value.
Internal cabinet temperature displayed is affected by opening the door and changing
products, when the air temperature momentarily rises. The refrigeration is designed so that
the temperature variation will have no effect on the temperature of the stored product.
Additionally, the equipment has a separate control temperature probe (P4), which corre-
sponds with the stored product temperature.
S3.1 Temperature control (NORMAL STATE)
• Press the PROBES button and select the temperature displayed.
• P1 is indoor temperature that changes e.g. when the door is opened.
• P4 is product probe.This is equivalent to the product temperature stored inside
the cabinet.

3. Change the value by pressing the UP or DOWN arrow key within 60 seconds.
4. Save the new set point by pressing the ENTER button for AT LEAST 2 SECONDS or wait
for 60 seconds.
5. Return to the main menu by pressing the HOME button.
S3.4 Temperature alarm limits
The inside temperature of the cabinet is controlled based on the set temperature value
taking into consideration the running and rest periods of the machinery. To ensure safe
storage of the products, the cabinet is equipped with temperature alarm function. It alarms
automatically if the internal temperature falls below the alarm limit (+ 2°C) or exceeds the
alarm limit (+ 8°C) staying outside these limits continuously for the time set to tempera-
ture alarm delay (15 min). This delay has been chosen by the manufacturer. It is so short
that the change of air temperature does not cause such a change of the product tem-
perature that would risk its safety. These alarm limits and delays can be changed in the
settings according to the instructions of the help menu.

keys. Select the required parameter with arrow keys and press ENTER
6. Parameters and their use are as follows:
• A1C alarm: Ab absolute i.e. actual measured temperature according to A1U and A1L
• Rel relative i.e. deviation from the temperature set point value according to A1U and
A1L
• A1U High temperature alarm level, either actual temperature or size of deviation
• A1L Low temperature alarm level, either actual temperature or size of deviation
• A1H Alarm deviation range specifies how many degrees the temperature must alter
before the alarm is automatically switched off (alter remains in the report).
• A1D general alarm delay
• d1o additional delay in start-up, when a warm cabinet is taken in use the alarms are
not connected before the cabinet has reached the required storage temperature.
When adjusting limits and delays, limits must be set outside the temperature
deviation range and the delay such that it will not cause unnecessary alarms
due to normal use of the cabinet, set such as opening the door and defrost
periods.
