NSF CERTIFICATION
These merchandisers are manufactured to meet
ANSI / National Sanitation Foundation (NSF®)
Standard #7 requirements. Proper installation is
required to maintain certification. Near the serial
plate, each case carries a label identifying the
type of application for which the case was certi-
fied.
ANSI/NSF-7 Type I – Display Refrigerator / Freezer
Intended for 75°F / 55%RH Ambient Application
ANSI/NSF-7 Type II – Display Refrigerator / Freezer
Intended for 80°F / 55%RH Ambient Application
ANSI/NSF-7 – Display Refrigerator
Intended for Bulk Produce
LOCATION
These merchandisers are designed for displaying
products in air conditioned stores where tempera-
ture is maintained at or below the ANSI/NSF-7
specified level and relative humidity is maintained
at or below 55%.
Placing refrigerated merchandisers in direct sun-
light, near hot tables or near other heat sources
could impair their efficiency.
Like other merchandisers, these are sensitive to
air disturbances. Air currents passing around mer-
chandisers will seriously impair their operation.
Do NOT allow air conditioning, electric fans,
open doors or windows, etc. to create air currents
around the merchandisers.
To prevent sweating on the exterior surfaces,
there must be a minimum clearance of 4 in.
(102 mm) between merchandisers, other fixtures
and store walls.
Product should always be maintained at proper
temperature. This means that from the time the
product is received, through storage, preparation
and display, the temperature of the product must
be controlled to maximize the life of the product.
Wide Island Fronts
BE SURE TO POSITION WIDE ISLAND MERCHANDISER
FRONTS PROPERLY. The front of a wide island
merchandiser is readily identified by the location
of the serial plate (see leveling drawing.) Since
all electrical and refrigeration connections will be
made at the front side, the fronts will need to be
positioned according to the store plan layout.
SHIPPING DAMAGE
All equipment should be thoroughly examined
for shipping damage before and during unload-
ing.
This equipment has been carefully inspected at
our factory. Any claim for loss or damage must be
made to the carrier. The carrier will provide any
necessary inspection reports and/or claim forms.
Apparent Loss Or Damage
If there is an obvious loss or damage, it must be
noted on the freight bill or express receipt and
signed by the carrier’s agent; otherwise, carrier
may refuse claim.
Concealed Loss Or Damage
When loss or damage is not apparent until after
equipment is uncrated, retain all packing materials
and submit a written request to the carrier for
inspection, within 15 days.
INSTALLATION
Do not walk or put heavy objects
on merchandiser.
CAUTION
!
Exercise caution at all times when moving
merchandisers with up-tilt riders.
They are top heavy and should NEVER be
left in the vertical position.
WARNING
!
HUSSMANN CORPORATION, BRIDGETON, MO 63044-2483 U.S.A.
EXTERIOR LOADING
Do NOT walk on top of merchandisers or dam-
age to the merchandisers and serious personal
injury could occur. THEY ARE NOT STRUCTURALLY
DESIGNED TO SUPPORT EXCESSIVE EXTERNAL LOAD-
ING such as the weight of a person. Do not place
heavy objects on the merchandiser.
MERCHANDISERS SHIPPED WITH END
INSTALLED
If the merchandiser was shipped with the end
installed, two long bolts were used to hold the
shipping brace to the end. If the shipping bolts
are reinserted after removing the brace, they will
extend into the product area. THEREFORE, BE
SURE TO REPLACE THESE BOLTS WITH THE SHORT-
ER BOLTS PROVIDED.
Be careful not to damage the factory-installed
end while moving the merchandiser. Make sure
that tools are positioned past the end and beneath
the merchandiser’s support bar.
SHIPPING BRACES
Move the merchandiser as close as possible to
its permanent location and then remove all
packaging. Check for damage before discarding
packaging. Remove all separately packed
accessories such as kits and shelves.
LEVELING
Merchandisers must be installed level to ensure
proper operation of the refrigeration system and
to ensure proper drainage of defrost water. When
leveling merchandisers, use a carpenter’s level as
shown. Leveling shims are provided with each
merchandiser for use if needed. The shims are
12 in. (305 mm) long and 3 in. (76 mm) wide so
that you can level adjoining merchandisers at the
same time using one shim.
Notes:
•BEGIN LINEUP LEVELING FROM THE HIGHEST POINT OF
THE STORE FLOOR.
•If shimming two corners, check to see if a shim is
needed in the center of the merchandiser. If a gap
exists between the support rail of the merchandiser
and the floor, a shim should be placed in the center.

JOINING INSTRUCTIONS
Sectional construction means that two or more
merchandisers may be joined in line yielding one
long continuous display requiring only one pair
of ends. To join like merchandisers, use the joining
parts and instruction shipped with each merchan-
diser. To join unlike merchandisers, or merchandis-
ers of different temperature applications, an insulat-
ed 11/2 in. (38 mm) partition kit is required.
Partition kits are shipped separately; instructions
are included with each kit.
ALL JOINTS MUST BE AIR-TIGHT TO PREVENT
FORMATION OF ICE OR CONDENSATION.
Refer to separate Joining Instruction shipped
with merchandiser.
INSTALLING BUMPERS
Offsetting the bumpers and top rails helps to
disguise the joint locations, giving the lineup a
smoother look.
For the top bumper, begin at the left end of
the line-up. For the lower bumper,
begin at the right end of the line-up.
A starter bumper is factory-
installed with end kits. Insert
the internal joint trim, then
add the full-length
bumper.
Align each bumper sec-
tion with its retainer and
push into place, working
from the end of the line-
up. Install full length
bumpers and internal
joint trims offset across
joints. Make sure that no
gaps exist between sec-
tions. Continue installing
bumpers the length of the
line up.
Do NOT install the last bumper sections at this
time. These sections will be installed in the last
step (see next page).
Once all except the last section of upper bumper
and lower bumper have been installed, refrigerate
the merchandiser line-up for at least six (6) hours.
The last sections of bumper should be kept
inside a refrigerated merchandiser or cooler
during this time to allow the bumpers to con-
tract.

miter box and fine-tooth saw
to cut last bumpers to length.
Install the last sections.
Remove protective film from
bumper and top rail once
installation is complete.
End bumpers are factory-installed.
To remove installed bumpers, it may be necessary
to use a small (dull) tool such as a screwdriver to
help pry up one corner edge while pushing the
bumper toward the color panel. A screwdriver is
needed to remove bumper corners.

REFRIGERANT
The correct type of refrigerant will be
stamped on each merchandiser’s serial plate.
The merchandiser refrigeration piping is leak
tested, factory sealed and pressurized. Before
making refrigeration hookups, depress
Schrader valve to ensure that coils have
maintained pressure during shipment.
REFRIGERANT PIPING
Connection Location
The refrigerant line connections are at the right-
hand end of the merchandiser (as viewed from
the front) beneath the display pans. A sticker
marks the location of the connection “pod.” The
installer must saw a hole through the pod to exit
the merchandiser.
After connections have been made, seal this out-
let thoroughly. Seal both the inside and the out-
side. We recommend using an expanding
polyurethane foam insulation.
Multiplexing
Piping of merchandisers operating on the same
refrigeration system may be run from merchan-
diser to merchandiser DO NOT RUN REFRIGER-
ANT LINES THROUGH MERCHANDISERS THAT ARE
NOT ON THE SAME REFRIGERATION SYSTEM or
BRANCH as this may result in poor refrigeration
control and compressor failure.
Interconnecting piping inside the merchandiser
must be positioned to allow room for lifting the
hinged fan plenums and for clearance beneath the
display pans.
Line Sizing
Refrigerant lines should be sized as shown on
the refrigeration legend that is furnished for the
store or according to ASHRAE guidelines.
Note: If Koolgas defrost is used, the liquid line
will need to be increased two sizes larger inside
the merchandiser area. This is necessary to
ensure even liquid drainage from all evaporators
during defrost.
Oil Traps
P-traps (oil traps) must be installed at the base of
all suction line vertical risers.
Pressure Drop
Pressure drop can rob the system of capacity. To
keep the pressure drop to a minimum, keep the
refrigerant line run as short as possible using a
minimum number of elbows. Where elbows are
required, USE LONG RADIUS ELBOWS ONLY.
REFRIGERATION / ELECTRICAL
Refrigeration lines are under pressure and
should be depressurized before attempting
to make any connections.
WARNING
!
Splashguard brackets MUST be installed
before piping merchandiser.
CAUTION

REFRIGERATION / ELECTRICAL
HUSSMANN CORPORATION, BRIDGETON, MO 63044-2483 U.S.A.
INSULATION
With GAS Defrost
The suction and liquid lines should NOT contact
each other and should be insulated separately
for a minimum of 30 ft (9144 mm) from the
merchandiser.
With OTHER Than Gas Defrost
The suction and liquid lines should be clamped or
taped together and insulated for a minimum of
30 ft (9144 mm) from the merchandiser.
With EITHER of Above
Additional insulation for the balance of the liquid
and suction lines is recommended wherever con-
densation drippage is objectionable or the lines
are exposed to ambient conditions.
FRONT TO REAR AND/OR
END INTERCONNECTS
The wide island merchandisers are factory
equipped with separate piping and air systems
for each compartment, and are thus all capa-
ble of twin-temperature operation. This is a
standard feature.
If the wide island merchandiser is to be run at
a single temperature, factory installed piping
interconnect kits are available.
REFRIGERATION THERMOSTAT
The refrigeration thermostat body is located in
the electrical raceway. The bulb, when factory
installed, is located in the discharge flue. Wide
Island models will have two thermostats – one on
each side of the merchandiser.
DEFROST TERMINATION THERMOSTAT
The standard disc type defrost termination
thermostat is not adjustable. This thermostat
is clamped to the coil inlet tube.
CDA SENSOR (OPTIONAL)
Factory installed optional CDA sensor is located
where the thermostat bulb would normally be
located. Its leads will be routed through the elec-
trical raceway and to the rack control panel.
Leads are tagged in the raceway. Wide Island
models will have two sensors – one on each side
of the merchandiser.
HUSSMANN CORPORATION, BRIDGETON, MO 63044-2483 U.S.A.

MERCHANDISER ELECTRICAL DATA
Merchandiser data sheets for specific models are
shipped with this manual. The data sheets provide
merchandiser electrical data, electrical schemat-
ics, parts lists, and performance data. Refer to the
merchandiser data sheets and merchandiser serial
plate for electrical information.
FIELD WIRING
Field wiring must be sized for component
amperes stamped on the serial plate. Actual
ampere draw may be less than specified. Field
wiring from the refrigeration control panel to the
merchandisers is required for defrost termination
thermostats and for optional refrigeration ther-
mostats. When multiple merchandisers are on the
same defrost circuit, the defrost termination ther-
mostats are wired in series.
ALWAYS CHECK THE SERIAL PLATE FOR
COMPONENT AMPERES.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All wiring must be in compliance with NEC and
local codes. All electrical connections are to be
made in the electrical raceway on the serial plate
side of the merchandiser (front).
IDENTIFICATION OF WIRING
Leads for all electrical circuits are identified by
wire insulation color or colored plastic bands.
These bands correspond to the color code sticker
(shown below) located inside the merchandiser’s
raceway.
The defrost heaters, defrost termination ther-
mostats and refrigeration thermostats on the wide
island models are tagged with identification as
being either front or rear merchandiser display
section defrost and refrigeration controls.
WIRING COLOR CODE
Leads for all electrical circuits are identified by wire insulation color or
a colored plastic band: neutral wire for each circuit has either White
insulation or a White plastic sleeve in addition to the color band.

WASTE OUTLET AND WATER SEAL
The waste outlet is located in front of the fan
plenum 6 ft (1829 mm) from the left-hand end of
the merchandiser (facing merchandiser front). A
water seal is supplied with each merchandiser.
The water seal must be installed at the waste out-
let to prevent air leakage and insect entrance into
the merchandiser.
NOTE:
Water seal outlet must clear front skid rail.
Refer to Data Sheets for dimensions.
A tee fitting, an adapter, a plug and a street ell are
also supplied with each merchandiser.
INSTALLING DRIP PIPING
Poorly or improperly installed drip pipes can
seriously interfere with the merchandiser’s opera-
tion and result in costly maintenance and product
losses. Improperly installed drip pipes can cause
condensate to form on the outside of drip pipes.
Refer to the data sheet shipped with each model
to correctly locate piping. Please follow the rec-
ommendations listed below when installing drip
pipes to ensure proper installation.
• Never use drip piping smaller than the nominal
diameter of the pipe or water seal supplied with
the merchandiser.
• When connecting drip piping, the water seal
must be used as part of the drip piping to pre-
vent air leakage or insect entrance. The water
seal must be installed with the waste outlet at
the main drain point of each merchandiser.
Never use two water seals in series in any one
drip pipe.
DOUBLE WATER SEALS IN SERIES WILL CAUSE
AN AIR LOCK AND PREVENT DRAINING.
• Pitch the drip piping in the direction of flow.
There should be a minimum pitch of 1/8 in. per ft
(3 mm per 305 mm).
• Avoid long runs of drip piping. Long runs make
it impossible to provide the pitch necessary for
good drainage.
• Provide a suitable air break between
flood rim of the floor drain and outlet
of drip pipe. To meet code on low base
merchandisers, it may be necessary to
install a field-supplied drip pipe reduc-
er. An alternative is to cut the last sec-
tion of drip pipe at an angle.
• Prevent drip pipes from freezing:
– Do NOT install drip pipes in contact with
uninsulated suction lines. Suction lines should
be insulated with a non-absorbent insulation
material.
– Where drip pipes are located in dead air
spaces, such as between merchandisers or
between a merchandiser and a store wall,
provide means to prevent freezing.
Splashguard brackets MUST be
installed before piping merchandiser.

INSTALLING SPLASHGUARDS
The splashguard and brackets are shipped inside
each merchandiser.
Install splashguard brackets before piping
merchandiser. Use two screws per bracket; attach
brackets every 4 ft (1219 mm) at pre-drilled loca-
tions.
After merchandisers have been leveled and
joined, and all drip piping, electrical and refriger-
ation work has been completed, install the splash-
guards.
To Install Splashguards:
1. Check to be sure that all splashguard brackets
are level with the floor. Tighten screws.
2. Align splashguard so that slots in the top of
splashguard match the tabs extending from the
base of the merchandiser as shown.
3. Push splashguard up onto tabs until lower
edge of splashguard swings onto bracket.
Lower bottom of splashguard onto bracket tabs.

Installing Trim on Optional Stainless Steel
Splashguard
A trim piece is installed when joining optional
stainless steel splashguards. Use slotted screws
provided.
SEALING SPLASHGUARD TO FLOOR
IF REQUIRED by local sanitation codes, or if
desired by the customer, Stainless steel splash-
guards may be sealed to the floor using a vinyl
cove base trim. The size of trim needed will
depend on how much the floor is out of level.
To install the trim to the splashguard:
1. Remove all dirt, wax and grease from the area
of the splashguard where adhesion will be
necessary. This is to ensure a good and secure
installation.
2. Apply a good contact cement to the cove trim
and allow proper drying time according to the
directions supplied with the cement.
3. Install the trim to the splashguard so that it is
lying flush with the floor. DO NOT SEAL THE
TRIM TO THE FLOOR.
4. If required by local health codes the Cove
Trim may be sealed to the floor, using a
silicone-type sealer. Sealant must be removed
and replaced when servicing.

START UP
See the merchandiser's Data Sheet Set for refrig-
erant settings and defrost requirements. Bring
merchandisers down to the operating tempera-
tures listed on the data sheet.
Each 4 ft (1219 mm) section has its own evapo-
rator coil and pre-set non-adjustable thermostatic
expansion valve (TEV). No adjustment is
required. DO NOT REMOVE THE CAP ON THE
TEVS. This cap is to be removed only for valve
disassembly.
The TEV has been factory set to provide the
recommended performance settings as specified
on the merchandiser data sheets.
STOCKING
Product should NOT be placed in merchandis-
ers until merchandiser is at proper operating
temperature.
Proper rotation of product during stocking is nec-
essary to prevent product loss. Always bring the
oldest product to the front and set the newest to
the back.
AIR DISCHARGE AND RETURN FLUES MUST REMAIN
OPEN AND FREE OF OBSTRUCTION AT ALL TIMES to
provide proper refrigeration and air curtain per-
formance. Do not allow product, packages, signs,
etc. to block these grilles. Do not use non-
approved shelving, baskets, display racks, or any
accessory that could hamper air curtain perfor-
mance.
LOAD LIMITS
Each merchandiser has a load limit decal.
Shelf life of perishables will be short if load limit
is violated. Overstocking will adversely affect
product temperature and merchandiser efficiency.
Recommended load limit profiles are shown on
the next page.

CARE AND CLEANING
Long life and satisfactory performance of any
equipment is dependent upon the care it receives.
To ensure long life, proper sanitation and mini-
mum maintenance costs, these merchandisers
should be thoroughly cleaned, all debris removed
and the interiors washed down, weekly.
Fan Plenum
To facilitate cleaning, the fan plenum is hinged.
After cleaning be sure the plenum is properly
lowered into position OR PRODUCT LOSS WILL
RESULT due to improper refrigeration.
Exterior Surfaces
The exterior surfaces should be cleaned with a
mild detergent and warm water to protect and
maintain their attractive finish. NEVER USE
ABRASIVE CLEANSERS OR SCOURING PADS.
Interior Surfaces
The interior surfaces may be cleaned with most
domestic detergents, ammonia based cleaners and
sanitizing solutions with no harm to the surface.
DO NOT USE:
• Abrasive cleansers and scouring pads, as these
will mar the finish.
• A hose on lighted shelves or submerge the
shelves in water.
• Solvent, oil or acidic based cleaners on any
interior surfaces.
DO:
• Remove the product and all loose debris to
avoid clogging the waste outlet.
• Store product in a refrigerated area such as a
freezer. Remove only as much product as can
be taken to the freezer in a timely manner.
• First turn off refrigeration, then disconnect
electrical power.
• Thoroughly clean all surfaces with soap and
hot water. DO NOT USE STEAM OR HIGH
WATER
PRESSURE HOSES TO WASH THE INTERIOR.
THESE WILL DESTROY THE MERCHANDISERS’
SEALING CAUSING LEAKS AND POOR PERFOR-
MANCE.
• Lift hinged fan plenum for cleaning. Hook
chain in rear panel to secure plenum during
cleaning. BE SURE TO REPOSITION THE FAN
PLENUM AFTER CLEANING MERCHANDISER.
• Take care to minimize direct contact between
fan motors and cleaning or rinse water.
• Rinse with hot water, but do NOT flood.
NEVER INTRODUCE WATER FASTER THAN THE
WASTE OUTLET CAN REMOVE IT.
• Allow merchandisers to dry before resuming
operation.
• After cleaning is completed, turn on power
and refrigerant to the merchandiser.
• Verify that merchandiser is working properly.
MAINTENANCE
