Installation
(continued)
Drainage Plug
Warning: The unit's built-in re-evaporator will not function unless the drainage plug
is installed in the drainage outlet.
The SRCOOL7KRM ships with the drainage plug pre-installed. When the unit cools or
dehumidifies, condensation forms. The unit has a built-in re-evaporator that allows it to expel
condensation through the warm air exhaust stream. This feature allows the unit to operate
indefinitely without requiring you to empty a water collection tank.
1
Cooling Mode with Re-Evaporation
The drainage plug must remain installed to enable re-evaporation of condensation.
2
Cooling Mode without Re-Evaporation
To use Cooling mode without re-evaporating condensation, remove the drain plug and route
a user-supplied drain line to external drainage.
3
Dehumidify Mode
When using the unit in Dehumidify mode, you must remove the drain plug and route a
user-supplied drain line to external drainage. This is required because the amount of water
removed from the air increases significantly.
Note: If the drainage system becomes clogged, a small internal reservoir will collect
condensation. If the drainage system is not cleared before the internal reservoir fills, the unit
will shut down automatically.
Warning: Before connecting the unit to a dedicated drainage system, turn it off
and unplug it. There is a risk of electric shock while the unit is plugged in.
Note: If your building's cooling system has night or weekend thermostat setbacks, has periodic
shutdowns, or has limited cooling capacity, you may need to consider alternatives to the
standard installation. This product is meant to be used as a supplemental cooling device, and
cannot make up for significant fluctuations in building temperature or humidity.
Powering the SRCOOL7KRM
Plug the unit into an appropriate power source.
Low Temperature Operation
The SRCOOL7KRM is a high performance cooler, capable of producing very cold air output. When using the unit in environments that are
already cold (20° C / 68° F or less), Tripp Lite recommends using the Dehumidify Mode only. This will allow the unit to continue to provide the
supplemental cooling while preventing any evaporator icing issues caused by the low room temperature.
Magnetic Door Panel Installation

42U Models: Attach three magnetic door
panels to the inside of the enclosure door.
Leave the front of the SRCOOL7KRM
exposed to allow adequate airflow into it.
2B
48U Models: Attach five magnetic door
panels to the inside of the enclosure door.
Leave the front of the SRCOOL7KRM
exposed to allow adequate airflow into it.
Note: Panels may need to be trimmed to fit
