Description of the unit
The LMC series includes air-cooled or water-cooled (optional) condensing units built on the basis of the single-
block principle. They consist of:

Operation
LMC single blocks are compression units where cold is produced by vaporizing a liquid refrigerant (HFC
type) at low pressure in a heat exchanger (evaporator). The resulting vapour is brought again into the liquid state
by mechanical compression at a higher pressure, followed by cooling in another heat exchanger (condenser).
The compressor is hermetic, with reciprocating motion, supplied with single-phase or three-phase power.
Defrost takes place automatically in pre-set cycles; manual defrost is also possible.

Handling
The unit can be handled by lifting and transport means.
WARNING
Make sure that no one is in transit in the operating area of the lifting/transport means to
prevent any possible accidents to people.
If the unit is in a wooden case or crate, sling the packing properly before handling it.
Lifting speed shall be such as not to make the packed unit oscillate dangerously and
possibly fall.
1. a condensing unit placed outside the cold room;
2. an evaporator placed in an insulated box and installed outside the cold
room;
3. an electric control panel placed on the condensing unit;
4. a wall-mounted remote control panel.
