PRECISION DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY (PDT)
All cabinets come with our Precision Digital Technology (PDT), a liquid temperature measuring thermostat system. With this technology, a bottle probe relays information back to the thermostat, giving you a reading of the wine, not of the air around it.
Aside from the probe, the system offers other advantages:
-
-
- A built-in defrost cycle: The unit is designed to shut off for five minutes every 90 minutes in order to prevent frost. This allows the cooling unit to cool effectively in demanding environments.
- Heavy-duty circuitry: The system is resistant to power surges, which can play havoc on electrical components. This improvement will ensure years of trouble-free use. However, we still recommend that you install a surge protector specifically for the unit.
- Fahrenheit and Celsius readouts: The thermostat has the ability to produce the readout in both Fahrenheit and Celsius, for overseas users.
-
By measuring the temperature of the liquid, the temperature reading will be consistent and the unit will only run when it needs to.
TO INSTALL THE THERMOSTAT:
- Fill an empty wine bottle to its neck with room temperature water.
- Press bottle probe securely into bottle
- Place the bottle with probe into a level rack space.
- Avoid pulling too much on the probe cord as it may become disconnected, which would lead to inaccurate temperature readings.
