Electrical Wiring Plan
Troubleshooting
Trouble: The unit does not switch on.
Possible Cause: No power supply.
Correction: Check the mains connection and the pre-fuse.
Trouble: The unit does not cool/heat adequately.
Possible Cause:
- The air circulation inside the enclosure is impaired.
- Ambient temperature too high/low.
- Filter equipment contaminated.
- Internal fan defective.
- External fan defective.
- The heat produced in the enclosure exceeds the cooling capacity of the Peltier climate control unit.
Correction:
- Check the air circulation inside the enclosure. Check, in particular, those components equipped with a fan. Check the free spaces above and below the main heat dissipation sources.
- Reduce the ambient temperature. Protect the unit from radiation heat caused by direct sunshine and hot surfaces.
- Check the filter and, if necessary, clean or replace.
- Replace unit.
- Replace unit.
- Reduce the heat loss.
Trouble: Condensation.
Possible Cause:
- Enclosure leakages.
- Internal temperature of enclosure set too low.
Correction:
- Check the enclosure for leaks (IP 54). Check, in particular, the cable entry points for leaks.
- Check the set enclosure internal temperature (factory setting: +35°C).
