General Information
Koldwave 5WK Series Air Conditioners and
Heat Pumps are portable, water-cooled units
designed for applications where outside air
is not available and spot cooling is required.
The Koldwave air-conditioner cools an
entire area by discharging air through its
supply grille. Only power and condenser
water supply, water discharge, and
condensate drain piping are required for
installation.
The water-cooled condenser requires only
that amount of water needed to achieve the
desired high and low refrigeration system
pressures. The minimum condenser water
pressure for 85°F entering water temperature
can be found in the Specification and
Electrical Data section in this manual. A
refrigeration system head pressure actuated
water regulating valve regulates condenser
water.
Each unit is completely self-contained with
the entire refrigeration system, electrical
components, condenser and water valve
housed in one cabinet. All Koldwave units,
except the 5WK07, are provided with
heavy-duty casters. Two swivel-locking
casters prevent sliding; two stationary
casters provide handling ease for relocation.
The Koldwave 5WK07 is supplied with pads
on the bottom of the unit.
To attain the proper control of the water
flow rate entering the automatic water valve,
refer to the Specification and Electrical Data
Section to find the minimum water pressure
required for the condenser water supply.
The condenser water temperature leaving
the unit should not exceed 100°F. Ignoring
this compliance will void the warranty on
the refrigeration system. On heat pump
models it is not recommended to operate the
unit in the heating cycle when the water
temperature is below 50°F. Doing so could
reduce the specified heating capacity and
may cause the freeze control to cycle the
compressor off, resulting in a loss of
heating.
Model 5WK26
With the heat pump option the user can
manually select between the HEAT and
COOL functions using the touch pad control
panel or using the optional remote control.

Installation Instructions
Electrical Requirements
Check the power supply to make certain it is
within 10% of the voltage listed on the data
plate located on the back of the unit.
Operating the unit on improper voltage
will void the product warranty.
Refer to the Rating Plate for voltage and
current information.
Each unit should have a dedicated circuit
breaker.
Plug Types
MODEL VOLTAGE PLUG TYPE
5WK07 120/1/60 5 – 15P
5WK14 120/1/60 5 – 15P
5WK18 208-230/1/60 6 – 20P

5WK36 208-230/1/60 6 – 20P
Some Koldwave units are equipped with
LCDI device service cords. The service
cords employed have plug configurations
and receptacle requirements as shown in the
chart above. Modifications to the cord will
void the product warranty.
Extension cords used with the Koldwave
units should match the plug configuration of
the service cord provided on the unit. The
extension cord must be equipped with an
equipment grounding conductor, grounding
type attachment plug, and a grounding type
attachment connector. The cord must also
have a rating suitable for the voltage and
ampacity.
Water Fitting Location
Prior to placing the air conditioner in the
desired position, note the exact location of
the water fittings on the valve plate on the
unit side panel.
IMPORTANT: Following the installation
and preventative maintenance instructions
can extend the length of service you
receive from your Koldwave unit.
7
Figure A
Water lines should be securely attached to
the water valve plate fittings. This is easily
accomplished through the quick connect
hose kit provided with the unit.
Note: The water connections must be made
as shown in Figure A. The unit will not
operate properly if the connections are not in
the correct orientation.
