 1 Notes on documentation
1 Notes on documentation
EN
1.1 CE labelling
Rittal GmbH & Co. KG confirms the conformity of the
cooling unit with the European Union's Machinery Direc-
tive 2006/42/EC and EMC Directive 2014/30/EU. A sim-
plified declaration of conformity can be found in the as-
sembly and installation instructions enclosed with the
device (see also the Rittal website). These are the origi-
nal operating instructions.

1.2 Storing the documents

The assembly and operating instructions as well as all
other applicable documents are an integral part of the
product. They must be issued to everyone who works
with the unit and must always be available and on hand
for operating and maintenance personnel.

1.3 Symbols used in these operating in-

structions
The following symbols are used in this documentation:

Warning!
A dangerous situation which may cause
death or serious injury if the instructions
are not followed.

Caution!
A dangerous situation which may lead to
(minor) injuries if the instructions are not
followed.

Note:
Important notices and indication of situations
which may result in material damage.

 This symbol indicates an "action point" and shows that

you should perform an operation or procedure.

1.4 Other applicable documents

Paper copies of the assembly and operating instructions
are available for the unit types described here and are
enclosed with the equipment.
We cannot accept any liability for damage associated
with failure to observe these instructions.
 Please also observe the instructions for any accesso-
ries used.

cooled air is fed back into the enclosure via the outlet

The air is cooled down by evaporating the refrigerant in
the evaporator coil. The refrigerant vapour is transported
by the compressor in the external circuit of the cooling
1 unit to the condenser. There, the refrigerant condenses
and becomes a liquid. The heat produced is dissipated
by the condenser fan. The downstream electronic ex-

ant, and the refrigerant is then fed back into the evapo-

In both cooling circuits, the individual components are

connected with pipes in which the refrigerant R513A is

ly, thanks to the following properties:

potential ODP = 0)
– Global Warming Potential (GWP): 631

please observe the following:
– The site for the enclosure, and hence the positioning y
of the cooling unit, must be carefully selected so as to
ensure good ventilation (distance between cooling
units at least 200 mm, distance from wall see distance
"y" in fig. 7 or tab. 2). Fig. 7: Air circulation inside the enclosure
– The cooling unit must be installed and operated with a
maximum deviation of 2° from the vertical.

 Under no circumstances should the air inlet and outlet

openings of the cooling unit be obstructed. Only in this
way is it possible to ensure that the maximum cooling
output is available.
 Please ensure that the cold airflow from the cooling
unit is not directed at active components.

evaporate condensate water volumes of up to 100 ml/h.
If larger quantities of condensate water are produced, a
condensate water discharge hose may additionally be
fitted. This hose allows condensate water to be routed
out of the cooling unit pressurelessly. A suitable hose is

– Internal temperature (factory setting): The tem-
perature at which air is drawn out of the enclosure into
the cooling unit.
– External sensor: The temperature measured with an
external temperature sensor at a so-called hot spot in
the enclosure.
– Outlet temperature: The temperature measured
with an external temperature sensor at the cold air out-
let from the cooling unit.

8.4.5 Re-assembling the cooling unit
EN Once the cleaning work is complete, the cooling unit
must be sealed and, if externally mounted, fitted back
into the mounting cut-out.
 First, replace cover onto the rear panel.
It is assembled in the reverse order from dismantling
(see section 8.4.3 "Removing the cover").
 Before fully replacing the cover, make sure that the PE
conductor is correctly connected to the flat-pin con-
nector on the cover (fig. 61).
 Furthermore, make sure that the PE conductor is not
squashed or damaged when replacing the cover.

Warning!
If the PE conductor is not connected or
has been incorrectly connected, there is
a danger to life from electric shock.

 During installation, please observe the following tor-

ques for the cover assembly screws:
– 2 screws on the compressor console (at the bottom
of the unit): 3 Nm
– Remaining 6 / 8 screws: 2 Nm
 For externally mounted units, re-fit the cooling unit into
the mounting cut-out (see section 5.3.4 "External
mounting of the cooling unit").
 For internally mounted units, re-fit the louvred grille
onto the cooling unit (see section 5.3.5 "Internal
mounting of the cooling unit").
 Make the electrical connection for the cooling unit.
