Operating
The ROFROST TURBO is a compact ready-to-plug unit. It works with a hermitical compression
refrigerating system. Troublefree continuous operation for hours or days is possible under
supervision and within the prescribed ambient temperature range between + 10° C and 32° C
and voltage / frequency in accordance with the technical data.
The simple clamping system of the refrigerating tongs ensures safe fastening to the pipe.
Press the gripper together with the appropriate insert onto the pipe to be frozen and tighten
by means of the fastening screw (see illustration C-2).
Please note: Only tighten the fastening screw by hand!
Remove superfluous heat-conducting paste!
We recommend greasing the screw as this makes it easier to release the refrigerating tongs after
the freezing process!
Important information: During the freezing process a temperature difference between display
(L) and display (R) is possible. As a rule, however, this is compensated for in the minus range.
Furthermore, exterior factors can also play a part, e.g:
-
Different output temperatures of the respective pipes due for freezing,
-
Different pipe diameters,
-
Different contacting of the refrigerating tongs on the pipe,
-
Adverse effect of draughts.
Do not switch the unit on until both refrigerating tongs have been secured firmly to the pipes
to be frozen (see illustration C-3). The heating or pump must be switched off in good time
in order to stop the water flow in the p.
Danger
Danger of frostbite! The metal parts of the refrigerating tongs have a
temperature of approx. –30°C during the freezing process
Only touch the refrigerating tongs wearing gloves suitable for the cold!
Open the circuit when the temperature is at -15° C and the time has been reached according
to the table (see illustration A or B).
The stated values are guideline values determined at a room temperature of 22° C.
4.4
Shutdown
Shut down the freezer system, allow the refrigerating tongs and hoses to defrost, remove
them from the pipe and clean.
Hold the refrigerating tongs upright for about 5 minutes and switch the system back on so
that any oil that may still possibly be in the refrigerating tongs can find its way back into the
circuit.
Shut down the system, remove the power plug and carefully store the hose assembly group
in the housing compartment
Please note: Do not bend or stretch the hoses!
