b. Check the equipment against the packing slip to see if the shipment is complete. Report all discrepancies in

accordance with the instructions of TM 38-750.

c. Check to see whether the equipment has been modified.

4-5. SITE SELECTION

This refrigeration unit is designed for outdoor installation and is fitted for mounting to the outdoor side of a vertical wall.

The evaporator section is designed to protrude inside the enclosure to be cooled. Select a site which meets the following

requirements:

a. The prime consideration for the condenser is that there should be free access for outside air to and from the

condenser coil. Keeping in mind that intake air is through the front of the condenser coil and that discharge is outward

through the lower front expanded metal access doors, the left and right expanded metal access doors and the top screen.

Locate the unit so that there is a minimum of 36 inches of free space to the front and both sides of the condenser section

of the unit.

b. Make use of terrain features, trees or buildings, if possible, to provide a shaded location. This minimizes the cooling

load on the refrigeration system.

c. Do not locate the condenser unit where intake air is likely to be laden with dust, dirt, soot, smoke or other debris.

d. For Model F10000R-6 the unit should be located as near as possible to a source of 208 volt, three phase, 60 hertz, 4

wire ac electric power.

e. For Model F1000ORG-2.

WARNING

Engine Exhaust Gas

(Carbon Monoxide)

is DEADLY!

Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas formed by incomplete combustion of hydrocarbon fuels.

Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas that can cause unconsciousness and is potentially lethal.

(1) The engine exhaust extends out of the top of the condenser section. Locate the unit so that exhaust is not

obstructed and prevailing winds do not blow exhaust gas toward operating or maintenance personnel.

(2) Do not locate unit in an area where the handling of gasoline would be dangerous.

4-6. INSTALLATION SITE PREPARATION

The unit is designed to be installed with the evaporator section extending through a cutout in the prefabricated panel

type refrigerator wall. See figure 4-1 for cutout dimensions.

4-7. REFRIGERATOR UNIT PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION

a. Check to be sure that all shipping seals and protective pads and covers have been removed.

b. The F10000RG-2 is powered by a gasoline engine. Deprocess the engine in accordance with instructions contained

on DA Form 2258 or DD Form 1397 attached to the equipment.

Inspect unit for any obvious shipping damage. Check the four mounting bolts and mounting angles.

d. Carefully inspect the gasket seal on the back of the condenser section. Any damages to this gasket will result in air

and heat leakage to the refrigerator compartment.
