FEATURES

SENTRY III CONTROL SYSTEM FEATURES

• Large, easy to read, cool green LED display

• Accurate, easy to adjust temperature set points with continuous display of cabinet temperature.

• Power outage protection.

Blocked airflow protection, which shuts down unit and protects wine in case of high temperatures caused by condenser blockage or fan failure.

• Controls temperature by enclosure (cellar) air sensors or optional bottle probe.

Adjustable Temperature

The ideal temperature for storing and aging wine is between 50 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Each BREEZAIRE system includes an adjustable thermostat that makes it possible for the user to precisely control the conditions in the wine cellar. When initially bringing the temperature down to the desired level and in maintaining the target temperature, the system produces a gentle stream of cool air - never a blast of cold air that could subject the wine to abrupt temperature changes.

Automatic Humidity Control 

Humidity must be present in the wine cellar to prevent cork and label deterioration. The gentle cooling action of the BREEZAIRE system maintains the relative humidity in the 50 to 75 percent range, eliminating excess moisture but never allowing the air to become dry enough to create an undesirable condition. (Additional moisture may be required in extremely dry climates.

Vibration-Free Operation 

All BREEZAIRE systems are engineered to be vibration free, hand assembled, and tested to ensure that they meet the most exacting standards. The elimination of vibration levels that may be undetectable to the owner results in wines that have greater clarity and brilliance.

Ultra Quiet Operation 
BREEZAIRE systems perform their task quietly and unobtrusively to preserve the atmosphere of isolation from the outside world that visits a wine cellar a unique experience.

Attractive Metal Cabinet 
An attractive metal cabinet that blends in with the d1/2©cor of your cellar area and can be flush mounted to any wall.

Ease of Installation
BREEZAIRE's most popular systems is completely self-contained modules that are simply mounted in a wall and connected to a standard 115AC source. No plumbing, complicated wiring or special procedures including the on-site installation of refrigerant are required.

Uncompromising Quality 
All BREEZAIRE systems are designed to deliver superior performance. Constructed using only the highest quality components, and hand assembly by skilled craftsmen in our U.S. production facilities.

WKSL 2200 is a direct replacement for WKS 2200.

Cellar Size:  265 cu.ft.

BREEZAIRE WKSL Series cooling systems are special split systems that allow mounting of the cooling (evaporator) module in the enclosure to be cooled and the exhaust (condenser) module as far as 50 feet away.

The systems are designed - when installing in a properly constructed enclosure - to provide a constant selectable temperature between 48 and 63 degrees Fahrenheit while maintaining 50 to 75 percent relative humidity. WKSL Series systems are designed for easy installation by any, properly equipped, qualified air conditioning or refrigeration service technician. Two copper tubes connect the two modules, and power is hard wired to the units using adequately sized 110 AC volt electrical source. These systems must be charged with refrigerant during installation. The WKSL series uses BREEZAIRE's rugged adjustable mechanical thermostat. Professional installation skills and equipment required.

HUMIDITY & INSTALLATION:

By the nature of their operation, wine cooling units will maintain a stable humidity level, lower than the relative ambient humidity. In situations where the ambient humidity is high, the cooling unit will lower the humidity to desirable storage levels. In situations where the ambient relative humidity is very low, the desired enclosure relative humidity may not be achieved without adding moisture. To add moisture to the enclosure only use slow, natural evaporation from a small porous water container. Do not use a humidifier.

TEMPERATURE & INSTALLATION:

These wine cellar cooling units are designed to cool 25 degrees less than the ambient temperature of the venting side of the unit. In some cases, improper placement or installation may cause the unit's performance to be degraded. The condensing unit must have a constant supply of fresh air, less than 85 degrees F. If the condensing unit is located in a confined area with poor ventilation, the unit will not be able to reject the heat it is removing from the enclosure and a malfunctioning unit will be suspected, even though the unit is mechanically sound. Call us to discuss your installation concerns.

UPGRADES

OPTIONAL MODIFICATION: HOT EXHUAST AIR UP

If your application requires top exhaust you can order this optional modification to your Breezaire Unit. The Hot exhaust air up modification allows hot air to be exhausted out the top of the cooling unit. You will still need to allow for room to allow for proper air circulation for fresh air intake. For example: if your cooling unit is installed in a wine cabinet, you will still need to leave room behind the cabinet for fresh air intake.

The Hot exhuast air up is considered to be a special order request and thus makes the cooling unit non-returnable. 

Please Note: Adding this item may add 3-4 weeks to the production and delivery of your unit.

ADD OPTIONAL BOTTLE PROBE

Bottle Probe for Breezaire WKL, WKE and WKC Series cooling units. A bottle probe is highly recommended if your wine cellar is installed in a warm area.

 

Bottle Probe (Optional)

The BREEZAIRE Bottle Probe can be used on all models. The bottle probe is used when you want to control the temperature of the wine cellar according to the liquid in the bottles. When the bottle probe is plugged into the unit it will take place of the internal air sensor.

How to use the Bottle Probe:

Allow the enclosure to stabilize at the desired temperature for several days (72hours). Using a normal size wine bottle clean bottle and then fill it with water insert the bottle probe into the bottle, and place it in the enclosure. Do not connect the bottle probe to the unit until the bottle has sufficient time to cool to the enclosure temperature (72 hours). Connect the bottle probe to the outlet located on the face of the unit. The on and off operation of the unit is now controlled by the temperature of the liquid in the bottle. The temperature displayed is that of the liquid in the bottle. Unplugging of the bottle probe will return the unit to the internal air sensor and will be reading the wine cellar temperature. The bottle probe cord is 5’ long.
