    Description

    7156 SENSIBLE BTUH @ 55F. CellarPro's AH8500Si-ECC ducted cooling units (1 Ton Nominal) are engineered for wine cellars up to 2,500* cubic feet in both commercial and residential wine cellars. When ducted, this unit uses 10-inch insulated ducting on the cold side, and 10-inch ducting on the hot side.

    This unit maintains optimal cellar temperature and humidity conditions in extreme conditions up to 110F. AH8500Si units use energy-efficient EC fans and are significantly quieter than comparable units from other brands. Visit our Learning Center for data tables, performance charts and product comparisons among different brands.

    When the condensing unit will be exposed to or pulling air that is below 40F, our Compressor Heater (P/N 1727) is a required addition to protect the compressor. For installation of the condensing unit in environments below 20F down to -20F, our Fan Cycling Switch (P/N 6972) is required in addition to the Compressor Heater, and Electronic Configuration is required.

    *Assuming R19 insulation throughout the cellar, 55F inside the cellar and 85F outside the cellar. Cold-side ducting, glass and/or uninsulated walls, extreme humidity, altitude and other factors may affect the sizing calculation.

    Our cooling units are designed to be used in properly-constructed wine cellars that are adequately insulated, airtight and sealed with a vapor barrier. In improperly-constructed cellars, the cooling unit will create excess condensation, leading to damage and premature failure of your cooling unit (not covered by warranty).

    Features

    CellarPro AH8500Si-ECC Cooling Unit (P/N 36020). CellarPro engineered the AH8500Si-ECC ducted cooling system to provide maximum cooling power and adjustable humidity control for cellars up to 2,500 cubic feet. The evaporator and the condensing unit each can be ducted up to 100 equivalent feet (50 equivalent feet per duct.) As a split system, the evaporator can be separated from the condensing unit up to 100 feet, allowing the noise and heat from the condensing unit to be located away from interior living areas. Designed for internal installations, the AH8500Si-ECC includes a quieter, energy-efficient EC fan on the hot side with a low setting for quieter operation and a high setting for maximum power.

    All air-cooled refrigeration equipment requires fresh air intake to dissipate the heat generated by the cooling unit. The fresh air intake CANNOT come from the wine cellar space - it must come from space outside the cellar.

    • Now with a quieter, energy-efficient EC Fans on the hot side save $150.39 in annual energy costs vs dual AC fans (assumes 75% runtime and $0.15/kWh)
    • CellarPro Air Handlers are engineered to be ducted with 10-inch insulated ducting on the cold side (evaporator) and/or 10-inch ducting on the hot side (condensing unit), allowing the equipment can be located out-of-sight where it won't be heard.
    • Split systems are designed to separate the evaporator from the condensing unit up to 100 feet.
    • High-output fans provide more airflow and variable speed settings for your choice of cooling power.
    • Optional integrated humidifier provides the ultimate control of moisture levels inside your cellar.
    • Optional integrated heater provides heat for wine cellars that are exposed to temperatures below 55F.
    • Extra-large coils generate maximum cooling power inside the cellar.
    • Excess condensate is managed through a 1/2" drain line that exits from a choice of knockouts in the evaporator.
    • Commercial-grade Electrofin coating protects the evaporator coils from leaks and corrosion.
    • Intuitive LED display panel mounted on the evaporator with digital programmable thermostat is simple and easy to use. Remote thermostat is available as an upgrade.
    • Energy-saver mode, quick-chill mode, and auto-defrost cycle provide convenient solutions to common cellar needs.
    • Temperature set point range is 47F to 62F when the cooling unit is properly sized.
    • Unit operates with minimal vibrations and less noise than comparable units from competitors.
    • Audible and visual alarms and maintenance-needed indicator protect the cooling unit and the wine cellar.
    • Remote probe for the cellar (bottle probe) and duct adapters are included as standard equipment, and multiple knockouts and access points ensure easy installation.
    • Factory-installed Expansion Valve and Liquid Line Solenoid Valve (optional) ensure maximum operating precision and range.
    • Removable steel case and refrigerant access valve provides access to the internal components for servicing and repair.
    • Sight Glass and Liquid Line Filter/Drier are included for easy installation and maintenance.
    • Oversized Receiver allows for long line sets up to 100 equivalent feet and up to 30 vertical feet.
    • Auto-reset high-pressure switch protects the system by interrupting power to the compressor when system pressure is too high.
    • Evaporator and Condensing Unit are factory-pressurized and shipped with dry nitrogen to ensure leak-free installation.
    • CellarPro's 2-Year/5-Year Warranty, the most thorough in the industry, protects the unit against manufacturing defects.
    • An optional Extended Warranty (P/N 7528) is available for additional protection.
    • ETL Tested and Certified to rigorous UL Standards for safety.

                    Configurations

                    • CellarPro AH8500Si-ECC units are designed to be ducted, with the evaporator near (or inside) the cellar, and the condensing unit in a remote interior location up to 100 feet away.
                    • The evaporator and the condensing unit each can be ducted up to 100 Equivalent Feet (50 Feet per Duct) with 10-inch ducting.
                    • CellarPro's split configuration allows multiple ducting alternatives, as follows.
                      1. Collars or grills for EXHAUST (ie Supply) are located at the front (shown at left), top or rear of the cooling system, and are interchangeable to meet your specific requirement.
                      2. Collars or grills for INTAKE (ie Return) are located at each end (left: evaporator, and right: condenser), and include professional-grade air filters to protect the unit.
                    • We recommend pulling the fresh air intake (hot-side) from a temperature-controlled environment other than the cellar. If the hot-side exhaust will be directed to a different space than the intake, always make sure that both spaces are sufficiently voluminous so that you don't run into issues with negative pressure.
                    • A bottle probe temperature sensor (10' cord) plus your choice of duct collars, indoor grills and blank plates are included in the price of the cooling system.
                    • CellarPro Air Handler Split systems offer a choice of 110V / 60Hz wiring and power configurations:
                      1. Two permanent power connections for the evaporator (2.0 amps / 15 amp circuit breaker) and the condensing unit (15.7 amps / 25 amp circuit breaker). This wiring configuration is recommended for Valve Control.
                      2. One permanent power connection for the entire system (25 amp circuit breaker). In this configuration, the condensing unit must be wired to the evaporator, and must be used with Electronic Control.
                      3. The amp data above is not valid when the integrated heater and/or humidifier are configured with the cooling unit - please consult those Owner's Manuals for the additional amps required when using those upgrades.
                    • When the control panel is difficult to access, we offer a remote control display kit which is wired to the cooling unit and allows the digital display to be mounted inside or outside the cellar.
                    • The condensing unit requires 12 inches of unobstructed space in front of the coils, and requires approx. 600-700 CFM of ventilation when installed in a confined space.
                    • For installations in environments below 40F, AH8500Si-ECC units require our Compressor Heater (P/N 1727).
                    • For installation in environments below 20F down to -20F , Electronic Control is the required configuration, and our Fan-Cycling Switch (P/N 6972) is required in addition to the compressor heater (both sold separately).
                    • The evaporator should never be exposed to temperatures below 32F.
                    • Access to the left and right side of the evaporator unit is required for installation.
                    • All split systems must be installed and charged on site by a qualified HVAC professional. Line-set equivalent feet must be calculated in accordance with ASHRAE guidelines.
                    • A CellarPro cooling unit must always be used in the upright position, and should never be operated on its side or upside down.
