Warning: Some ceilings may require modified installation procedures. The user must determine the fitness of hardware and

procedures before installing. The procedures described in this manual may not be appropriate for all applications.

Choose a removable drop ceiling panel near the unit to provide the straightest, shortest path available for the flexible exhaust duct. Measure the width of the ceiling panel, including the portion that rests on the ceiling grid. Combine the two sections of the adjustable exhaust panel, then adjust the exhaust panel to match the width of the ceiling panel. After the exhaust panel is set to the correct width, use the included self-tapping screw to lock it in place. Note: The exhaust panel can adjust from 20.5 to 49.2 inches (52.1 to 104.1 cm). Certain installations may require trimming the exhaust panel for a proper fit.

Insert the exhaust duct adapter into the oblong hole in the adjustable exhaust panel. The adapter will snap into place.

Slide the ceiling panel back into place so that it adjoins the exhaust panel and closes any gaps in the ceiling. A tight seal will permit maximum cooling efficiency. If the installation is permanent, trim the ceiling panel so it doesn’t overlap the ceiling grid. Note: The flexible exhaust duct can extend to a maximum length of 118 inches (300 cm). Provide the straightest, shortest path available. Excessive bending or stretching of the duct will reduce cooling efficiency.

Slide the ceiling panel out of the way and place the exhaust panel inside the ceiling space. Allow the exhaust panel to rest on top of the ceiling grid. Note: There must be at least 10 inches (25.4 cm) of open space above the exhaust panel to allow adequate airflow.Self-Tapping ScrewVerticalWindowOpeningHorizontal WindowOpening

Insert the exhaust panel into the window opening, then close the window against the exhaust panel. A tight seal will permit maximum cooling efficiency. Note: There must be at least 10 inches (25.4 cm) of open space behind the exhaust panel to allow adequate airflow. Note: The flexible exhaust duct can extend to a maximum length of 118 inches (300 cm). Provide the straightest, shortest path available. Excessive bending or stretching of the duct will reduce cooling efficiency. Drainage Plug Warning: The unit’s built-in re-evaporator will not function unless the drainage plug is installed in the drainage outlet. The SRCOOL2KWM ships with the drainage plug pre-installed. When the unit cools or dehumidifies, condensation forms. The unit has a built-in re-evaporator that allows it to expel condensation through the warm air exhaust stream. This feature allows the unit to operate indefinitely without requiring you to empty a water collection tank.

Cooling Mode with Re-Evaporation The drainage plug must remain installed to enable re-evaporation of condensation.

Cooling Mode without Re-Evaporation To use Cooling mode without re-evaporating condensation, remove the drain plug and route a user-supplied drain line to external drainage.

Dehumidify Mode When using the unit in Dehumidify mode, you must remove the drain plug and route a user- supplied drain line to external drainage. This is required because the water removed from the air would otherwise be evaporated back into the room. Note: If the drainage system becomes clogged, a small internal reservoir will collect condensation. If the drainage system is not cleared before the internal reservoir fills, the unit will shut down automatically.

Warning: Before connecting the unit to a dedicated drainage system, turn it off and

unplug it. There is a risk of electric shock while the unit is plugged in.1 2 3

Optional Accessories Remote Cooling Management Add remote cooling management to your SRCOOL2KWM with the optional SRCOOLNET2 module. It allows you to communicate with and control the SRCOOL2KWM as a manageable device on your network and is accessible via Web Browser, Network Management Station or Telnet. With the SRCOOLNET2 installed, you can:

• Change settings and monitor temperature and humidity from any location

Low Temperature Operation The SRCOOL2KWM is a high performance cooler, capable of producing very cold air output. When using the unit in environments that are already cold (20° C / 68° F or less), Tripp Lite recommends using the Dehumidify Mode only. This will allow the unit to continue to provide the supplemental cooling while preventing any evaporator icing issues caused by the low room temperature. Magnetic Door Panel Installation (Optional)

Open the rack front door.

Cut the magnetic door panel to fit the shape of the directional vent when it’s attached to the wall-mount rack front door.

Attach the magnetic door panel to the inside of the rack front door.9 Operation

Warning: Install the unit according to the instructions in the “Installation” section before attempting to operate it.

Power Turn the unit on or off by pressing the “POWER” button. The unit has a 3.5-minute compressor delay in order to prevent potential circuit overloads at start up. Automatic Restart Feature The unit will turn on and resume operation automatically when power is restored after a power outage. The unit will use the same settings that it used immediately before the power outage occurred. Note: If the power outage is brief, the unit will run the fan alone for 3.5-minutes before resuming normal operation. The delay allows the compressor to depressurize so the unit will function properly when it enters Cool mode. Cool Mode Pressing the “FUNCTION” button cycles between Cool mode and Dehumidify mode. The “COOLING” LED remains illuminated when Cool mode is active. Press the TEMP+ and TEMP- buttons to set the temperature in Cool mode. The selected temperature is shown on the numeric display. Once set, the desired temperature will blink five times, after which the display will show the current room temperature. Press the “FAN SPEED” button to cycle between high, medium and low fan speeds. An LED illuminates to indicate the selected fan speed. When speed is set on AUTO, the unit will automatically select a fan speed based on the set and ambient temperatures. If ambient temperature is lower than the set temperature, the fan will run and the “COOLING” LED will blink to indicate that the compressor is off. When cooling resumes, the “COOLING” LED will remain illuminated. Dehumidify Mode Pressing the “FUNCTION” button cycles between Cool mode and Dehumidify mode. The “DEHUMIDIFY” LED illuminates when Dehumidify mode is active. In Dehumidify mode, the fan runs at a fixed speed and temperature controls are disabled. For optimal performance in Dehumidify mode, close windows and doors, remove the drain plug and route user-supplied drain line to external drainage. Timer The “TIMER” button allows you to schedule the unit to turn on or off automatically. Timer On (Note: The unit must be off to activate the Timer On function. Confirm that mode, temperature and fan speed settings are correct before activating the Timer On function.) Activate the timer by pressing the “TIMER” button. Pressing or holding down the “TIMER” button allows you to set the “delayed on” time. The number of hours is shown on the numeric display. The number will flash on the screen five times, then display the time remaining before the unit will power on. Timer Off (Note: The unit must be on to activate the Timer Off function.) Activate the timer by pressing the “TIMER” button. Pressing or holding down the “TIMER” button allows you to set the “delayed off” time. The number of hours is shown on the numeric display. The number will flash on the screen five times before returning to the current temperature. Quiet Control Mode The unit includes a Quiet Control Mode which regulates the cooling via the microprocessor to achieve quieter operation levels when noise is an issue. To activate Quiet Control Mode, first set the desired temperature. After the display LED stops flashing, press the “QUIET” button. The Quiet LED will turn on. The set temperature will automatically increase by 2° F / 1° C per hour for the next two consecutive hours for a total gain of +4° F / +2° C after two hours, keeping the setting temperature constant from that point on.10 It is important to keep the air filters clean and free of dust. When the filters are dirty or clogged with dust, it decreases cooling efficiency and can threaten air quality. Tripp Lite recommends cleaning the filters at least once every two weeks. Before cleaning the filters, turn the unit off and unplug it! There is a risk of electric shock while the unit is plugged in.

1. Turn the unit off and unplug it.

2. Remove the air filters.

3. Wash the filters with warm water and

a neutral detergent. Do not use harsh detergents or chemicals. Allow the filters to air dry completely after washing. Note: Do not use water hotter than 104° F (40° C) to clean the filters.

4. Replace the air filters.

5. Plug the unit in and resume normal

operation. Operation Maintenance Periodic maintenance extends the unit’s lifespan and permits maximum operating efficiency. Cleaning the Air Filters Changing Degree Units The unit can display temperatures in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. The default setting for the SRCOOL2KWM is Fahrenheit. To toggle between temperature modes, put the unit in standby mode. The air conditioner is in standby mode when it is plugged into live AC power, but powered off. Then, press and hold the “FUNCTION” key for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the display will flash the temperature in the new degree units. Power the unit back on to resume operation. Alarm If the internal water tank becomes full, the unit will display the “E4” error code on its screen. To resume normal function, turn the unit off, remove the drainage plug and drain the excess water from the unit. Replace the plug and turn the unit on to begin cooling. One possible cause of the “E4” error is an excessively humid operating environment. If the error occurs regularly, you should check the humidity level of the operating environment. You may need to add an external drain. Cleaning the Cabinet Before cleaning the cabinet, turn the unit off and unplug it! There is a risk of electric shock while the unit is plugged in.

1. Turn the unit off and unplug it.

2. Wipe the unit with a dry, non-abrasive cloth. Do not use gasoline, benzene, thinners or other harsh chemicals that may damage the surface. Do not pour water directly over the unit or into the working parts. This causes a risk of electrical shock and deterioration of electrical components and wiring insulation.

3. In extreme cases, wipe the unit with a damp cloth to remove residue.

Moving the SRCOOL2KWM

1. Turn the unit off and unplug it.

2. Remove the drainage plug and drain any excess water from the unit.
