If this equipment has been stored or shipped in an
ambient colder than room temperature, YOU MUST
ALLOW THE COMPRESSOR TO WARM UP TO ROOM
TEMPERATURE PRIOR TO CONNECTING TO THE
POWER SUPPLY. This could take several hours.
IV. a - POWER SWITCH:
The power switch is located at main electrical box
behind the louver panel and is shipped from the
factory in the OFF position.
IV. b - CORD & PLUG:
All self-contained VPS models are supplied with a cord
& NEMA three-prong grounding plug attached. It is
shipped coiled at the bottom of the compressor
compartment, secured by a nylon strip. Plug the power
cord into the proper NEMA receptacle then turn the
power switch ON.
IV. c - DEFROST TIMER & TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
After the unit is plugged in and turned on, set the
defrost timer by turning the small knob (near the outer
edge of the large dial) clockwise until the correct time
of day on the large dial lines up with the TIME pointer.
Defrost times are set from the factory at 10am, 2pm,
8pm, 2am and 6am. Refer to section “VII. f” for more
info (see figure 7).
NOTE: The defrost time clock will have to be reset to
the current time if the unit loses power or the Power
switch is turned off for any significant amount of time.
Temperature is controlled electronically and needs no
adjustment in normal use. Reprogramming is not
necessary even if the power is interrupted.

IV. FIRST TIME START-UP V. DAILY OPERATION
V. a - PANS:
Standard rail VPS models are designed to operate with
full, half or third size pans without the use of adapter
bars. Other fractional size pans can be used with
optional adapter bars available from Traulsen. (see
section “X. b” for more info).
Jumbo rail VPS models are designed to operate with
full size pans without the use of adapter bars. Other
fractional size pans can be used with optional adapter
bars available from Traulsen. (see section “X. b” for
more info).
Use only stainless steel or aluminum food pans no more
than 4” deep in order to maintain product temperatures
within the current NSF Standard 7 guidelines
V. b -
SETTING UP THE RAIL:
Install pans in all pan spaces in the rail. Rest each pan
evenly on the front and back support ledges. Do not
use uneven or bent pans, as these will allow
circulating cold air to escape.
Allow the unit to reach operating temperature before
loading any food product. Load only refrigerated
product @ 36
o
F or below.
All pan spaces should be filled, even if some pans are
empty (even during nighttime storage).
When not in constant use, the VPS rail covers should
be kept closed over the pans.
V. c - LOADING THE UNIT BASE:
When loading product into the base take care that the
evaporator fans, located at the top of the compartment,
are not obstructed. Secure all paper and plastic wrap
to prevent it being drawn into the fans. Keep the doors
closed except when loading or removing product.
V. d - CLOSING DOWN THE RAIL AT NIGHT:
Food product may be stored in the rail overnight if
needed. Cover the entire rail with plastic wrap prior to
closing the rail covers over the pans.
