The Cabinet Top External (CTE Series) wine cellar refrigeration systems are small wine cellar cooling units designed for medium to large-sized, humidity-controlled spaces such as wine cabinets/walls, fur cabinets, and tobacco humidors.

CTE Units can be installed horizontally or vertically outside the cabinet to maximize storage capacity.

CT Evaporators are available in capacities from 2,513 to 3,547 BTU Per hour and can be used with R22, R134a, or R404a refrigerants. Chilled water models are available by special order.

Wine Cooling Unit Features

• Very low noise
• Provides consistent humidity by maintaining a steady coil temperature, reducing the need for expensive temperature and humidity controls in most applications*
• Extra insulation prevents sweating at higher ambient room temperatures
• Rust-proof aluminum housing with flat black powder-coated finish. Other colors are available.
• Constant pressure expansion valve standard.
• Thermally protected, PSC motorized impeller
• High-performance staggered coils with copper tubing mechanically expanded into aluminum fins.
• Each Unit is pressure-tested to eliminate leaks.
• Factory wired for simple field installation.
• Coil and drain pan dipped and baked with anti-corrosion coating.
• ETL certified

 

Available Wine Cellar Refrigeration Options

• Copper coils and/or stainless steel cabinets for special applications.
• Chilled water coils.
• Pre-charge, custom, or OEM units made to order

CTE Vertical Wine Cellar Refrigeration/Cooling Units Series

 

CTE Cooling System Typical Vertical Installation

• Keep line sets as short as possible.
• An excessive number of turns will cause refrigerant flow problems. This could cause early compressor failure. Suction line accumulators are recommended. Required if working lower than the normal 55-65 degrees operation range from the wine cellar
• The drain line must always flow downhill to drain or pump
• The system is controlled by a pump-down control system. There is no control wiring between the thermostat and condensing unit
• The line connections at Fan Coil and Condensing Unit may not be the same as the required line sizes.
• Standard line sets should be 50′ or less. Extended runs may require larger line sizes and 3oz. oil must be added for every 10′ over 35′
