Plumbing
Condensate from the cooling coil is automatically
evaporated from the condensate pan located in the
condensing unit housing. Each unit is also equipped
with a floor drain located in the right rear corner of
the cabinet. The drain can be plumbed to an external
floor drain by connecting to the 3/4” NPT thread out
the side or the 1” NPS thread out the bottom. Both
drains ports come plugged from the factory and can
be removed if needed.
NOTE: Remote units require evaporator condensate 
to be plumbed to an external drain.
Electrical
The cabinet must be connected to a separately
fused power source (see electrical specification
plate) and grounded in accordance with National
and Local Electrical Codes. Caution: Do not
attempt to operate the equipment on any other
power source than that listed on the Electrical
Specification plate.
Uncrating and Inspection
Remove all crating material before operating.
Carefully inspect cabinet for hidden damage. If
damage is discovered, file your claim immediately
with the transportation company. Perlick is not
responsible for damage in transit.
Placing the Cabinet
Push the cabinet into place using rollers when
necessary. IMPORTANT: Proper air flow around the
condensing unit is necessary for efficient operation.
Never obstruct the air flow in and out of the
condensing unit.
For sanitation purposes, it may be necessary to
seal the base of the cabinet to the floor. This can be
accomplished by laying a bead of silicone sealant
between the base of the cabinet and the floor as
shown by the figure below:
Leveling the Cabinet
When the cabinet is in place, check installation with
carpenter’s level. When level front to back and left
to right, accumulated water will drain out of the
cabinet.
Installing Casters or Legs 
(optional)
Attach casters or legs to cabinet bottom in holes
provided. Use the supplied 1/4”-20 x 3/4” hex head
self-tapping machine screws.
Installing Base Plates 
(optional)
Attach brackets to cabinet bottom in holes
provided. Attach base plate to brackets (see
separate instructions, provided with kit). When
returning cabinet to upright position, be careful not
to bend brackets.
WARNING! To avoid compressor damage, after 
running cabinet in an upright position, let unit stand 
for 24 hours before plugging in and running the unit.
