Re: criocabin monoblock
if it helps dev,where is the sensor to control the cooling? normally on the return air. so if the sensor is in front of the evap the fan should blow into the cabinet . is there an arrow on the hub of the blade? has the motor been changed for one that is the wrong direction?

Re: criocabin monoblock
Motor has been changed at some point,room probe is on the back of the case, so I assumed that the fan sould blow into the room, but it pulls from the room, and the probe picks up discharge air I thought that cant be right so I think the fans right and the motor is wrong maybe the original was clock wise motor, fan arrow is clock wise motor turns anti clock I thought maybe is was a deliberate design feature, but it does go against convention

Re: criocabin monoblock
It's set at -24 and will get there no prob but as its picking up the air off the fan but It's blowing the air onto the back wall about a foot from the case and the air is just hitting the wall and back onto the probe the air onto the evap is lucky to reach -6 so in effect the coldest part of the room is just off the fan it's got me puzzled

Re: criocabin monoblock
best way is to check with the manufacturer then order a fan of the correct rotation from climate ctr as its probably cheaper

Re: criocabin monoblock
Just read another post re motors this has a capacitor and I thought but was not shure it was running slow, I stripped the motor to and had a look lubed it a bit I also took the blade of and twisted them in the opposite direction and tried it and it went like the clappers, culd a faulty capacitor affect the speed I think they either work or dont but then again I only know about start caps if this is a run can it cuase slow running if all else fails its on the phone first thing Monday cheers
