STANDARD FEATURES CABINET The CAC1211 Series spot cooler has a cabinet that is constructed of 18 gauge steel with a polyester powder coated finish. The matte black finish compliments any surrounding space, and the cabinet is lined with sound-absorbing insulation for cool, quiet comfort. The CAC1211 comes equipped with handles and premium swivel casters for portability and convenient set-up. DELUXE ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER The CAC1211 unit is equipped with deluxe electronic controller.
APPLICATIONS SPOT COOLER The CAC1211 can be used in an open environment to cool specific objects or "spots". Spot Cooling is a convenient and economical way to provide air conditioning where cooling the entire space is impractical. Cool air is discharged from the unit and is directed where it is needed. Nozzle kits can be used to improve direction of the cooling airflow.
ELECTRICAL PORTABLE CONFIGURATION The CAC1211 is equipped with a 10 ft. power cord for ease of movement and portability. The cord is to be plugged into a 15 Amp receptacle. A dedicated circuit is required. MODEL PLUG CONFIGURATION RECEPTACLE 15A-125 VOLT NEMA 5-15P NEMA-5-15R CAC1211 SERVICE CORD The CAC1211 is equipped with a ten foot long service cord with LCDI (Leakage Current Detection & Interruption) device that serve as a means of electrical protection.
CONDENSATE RESERVOIR TANK The CAC1211, has a 2-gallon polyethylene tank for collecting condensate. The tank is located in the lower, front section of the unit. A high water level cut-out switch is used to stop the compressor and condenser fan automatically when the tank's pre-set water level has been reached. The evaporator fan will continue to run, circulating air. EMPTYING THE CONDENSATE RESERVOIR TANK In the COOL Mode, condensate will accumulate in the condensate tank.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS RECEIVING—INSPECTION: Upon receiving your CAC1211, inspect the packaging for any damage. All units are shipped on a skid, and packaged in a triple-wall carton for added protection. In shipment, some wear may occur on the packaging. If the packaging is heavily damaged or broken, file a claim with the freight company immediately. Carefully unpack the unit and remove all wrapping materials. Save all documentation and fill out the Warranty Card and mail it to Oceanaire.
INSTALLATION—HANGING APPLICATION The CAC1211 may be installed above a space or above a drop ceiling, as required. The unit can be hung from a building’s structural beam by one of three means: · · · Using 5/16” -18 threaded rods secured into the top of the unit at the 4 corners. Make sure there is a minimum of 1/2” thread engagement into panel nuts. Rods are to be secured to upper structure by means of washers and nuts. Using 12 ga.
INSTALLATION—PERMANENTLY CONNECTED The CAC1211 power cord may be removed and the unit be permanently connected to a power source for applications where desired. Once the CAC1211 is installed and secured for a stationary installation, the unit can be permanently wired. 1. Remove the left side panel and locate the power cord and strain relief at the rear of the Unit. 2. Disconnect the power cord from the ground lug and terminal strip. 3. Remove the power cord and the strain relief. 4.
INSTALLATION—STACKING KIT, SK-1 Two or three CoolCube units are required when redundancy is critical, cooling large areas, or high heat loads. The CAC1211 can be stacked on top of each other to produce a capacity of 24,000 or 36,000 BTUH, while maintaining the same foot print. To facilitate the stacking of the CoolCube units, a stacking kit, SK-1, is required for each additional unit. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
INSTALLATION—RACK MOUNTING KIT, RCK-1 The 19-Inch Rack Kit allows for the Cool Cube to be installed into any EIA-310-D 4-Post of 2-Post rack enclosure. The kit includes (2) heavy duty rails (4) side mounting brackets and a rear mounting rail. The rails have a vibration dampening foam layer secured to the top for noise reduction. The hardware included in the kit will accommodate most installations, such as Square Hole Racks, 12-24 Threaded Racks, 10-32 Threaded Racks and round hole racks. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
ACCESSORIES 12
ACCESSORIES CEILING PANEL DUCT KIT, CK-8 A ceiling panel kit is available for discharging the condenser air above a drop ceiling.. The ceiling panel duct kits are furnished with an 8-inch white vinyl coated flexible duct that allows for convenient installation. A 2ft X 2ft ceiling duct-panel is included to replace a 2ft X 2ft drop-ceiling panel where the connection is desired.
ACCESSORIES CONDENSATE PUMP KIT , CPC-1 The condensate pump provides for the automatic removal of condensate water during the cooling process. The pump is capable of pumping against a 20 foot head, allowing for the routing of the drain line above the drop-ceiling to a nearby drain. The pump is controlled by an internal float-switch which turns the pump on and off automatically.
ACCESSORIES DISCHARGE AIR NOZZLE KIT ASSEMBLY (CNK-1) The optional discharge nozzle kits are used to direct the conditioned air to a specific target area. By concentrating the airflow, the nozzles increase the air velocity towards production lines to cool personnel or equipment. In server rooms, the nozzles can be used to induce airflow through the rack to remove the hot air from the area of the equipment.
ACCESSORIES—CONT’D EVAPORATOR RETURN AIR PLENUM, CEP-6 An evaporator return air plenum is available for installations where it is required to duct air to the inlet of the evaporator. The evaporator return air plenums allow the user to connect round duct (flexible or rigid) to the return air intake to reduce air noise and increase the number of options for solving difficult cooling problems. The plenum attaches to the front of the unit, replacing the return air grill.
Deluxe Electronic Controller The CAC1211 controller is equipped with many features for a more precise level of cooling and operation. Additionally, the controller can be removed from the unit and installed for remote operation, if desired—accessory parts may be required. When power is connected, the controller will display “888” momentarily, and will then go blank. Press the POWER button, then press the TEMP SELECT button until the SET POINT is displayed.
CONTROLLER PROGRAMMING MENU 1) Make sure the unit has power. 2) Pushing the POWER button, turn the unit “OFF”. 3) Press the following buttons in sequence “S-U-D-S”: 4) The display will begin flashing P1 and a number. If there is no display, repeat the sequence, making sure the unit has power, but is turned OFF. 5) To adjust any program parameter, press the ARROW UP▲ or ARROW DOWN ▼ button until the desired value is displayed.
