Breezaire WKCE 2200 Wine Cabinet Cooling Unit
The BREEZAIRE WKL Series cooling units are designed to, when installed in a properly constructed enclosure, provide a constant, selectable temperature between approximately 48°F and 63°F while reducing the excess relative humidity to the proper 50% to 75%. BREEZAIRE cooling units are designed to lower the temperature while removing only excessive moisture. In a properly constructed enclosure, this process can raise the relative humidity. The unit does not add moisture to the enclosure. The unit does not include a heating system and will not warm the enclosure. The WKL Series is not intended to cool service cabinets, which are maintained at lower temperatures and opened or entered frequently.
Features
The WKL Model has a digital electronic (Sentry III) thermostat that adds additional safety and convenience features:
- Large, easy to read, green LED display.
- Accurate, easy to adjust (no tools needed), readable set points with continuous reading of enclosure temperature or displaying of set point when changing enclosure temperatures.
- Power outage protection, which delays unit start up after power outages.
- Blocked airflow protection, which shuts down unit and protects wine in case of high temperatures caused by condenser blockage.
- Controls temperature by enclosure air sensors or optional bottle probe.
