Installation  
Upon removing the air conditioning unit from the box, check for any signs of shipping damage or missing parts (refer to parts list on page 2). If  
Select a Proper Location  
Install your portable air conditioner on a flat, level surface with rear and vented sides not less  
than 20 inches (50 cm) from walls or other obstacles (see diagram). Be sure to install the unit  
close to a properly grounded outlet. Also be sure the unit is placed near enough to a window,  
or in a convenient spot for Window/Drop Ceiling installation. Wall outlet should have a power  
supply consistent with that of the printed tag on the air conditioning unit, 90-110% of its rated  
voltage.  
More than 20”  
(50 cm)  
Note: Do not use an extension cord to plug in the unit. This appliance should be installed in  
accordance with national and local wiring regulations.  
More than 20”  
(50 cm)  
WALL  
Installing Standard, Louvered  
Air/Ducted Cooling Vents  
To remove, hold the upper portion of the  
selected vent (Standard, Louvered Air Vent for  
room cooling, Ducted Cooling Vent for ducted  
cooling), pull it outwards and upwards toward  
you. To install or replace, position the vent  
into the slot, and snap it down into place.  
Exhaust/Cooling Duct  
Mounting Instructions  
Affix one end of the duct (longer tube) to  
the Warm Air Exhaust Vent on the back  
panel of the unit. Pushing inward, turn the  
duct clockwise into the outlet as seen in the  
diagram, being sure the duct is connected  
solidly. Connect the Duct Adapter to the other  
side of the duct in the same manner. You are  
now ready for Window/Drop Ceiling Kit  
installation described in the next section.  
For Ducted Cooling  
Attach Ducted Cooling Vent to the unit’s  
Main Air Outlet. Affix one end of the duct  
(shorter tube) to the Ducted Cooling Vent  
by pushing downwards and turning the duct  
clockwise into the vent as seen in the diagram,  
being sure the duct is connected solidly. The  
other end of the duct can now be placed in  
a specific location for isolated cooling, such  
as in a wiring closet or attached to a rack  
configuration.

Installation  
Window Kit Installation  
Your portable air conditioner’s Window/Drop Ceiling Kit has been designed to fit most standard  
vertical and horizontal window applications. It may be necessary to modify some aspects of the  
installation process for certain types of windows. In both typical and modified installations, the  
user must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. The procedures  
described in this manual are for common window types and may not be appropriate for all  
applications.  
Figure A  
Figure B  
Nut  
Bolt  
The Window/Drop Ceiling Kit’s Adapter Board can accommodate a minimum window opening  
of 26.57 inches (67.5 cm) and a maximum of 49.21 inches (125 cm).  
Horizontal Window  
1. Measure your window’s opening and adjust the Adapter Board accordingly. When the correct  
measurement is determined, lock the board in place using the supplied nut and bolt (see  
Figure A).  
2. Attach the Exhaust/Cooling Duct with the Duct Adapter into the oblong hole in the Window/  
Drop Ceiling Kit’s Adapter Board. The adapter will snap into place.

minimum: 26.57 in. (67.5 cm)

3. Insert the Window/Drop Ceiling Kit’s Adapter Board into your window’s opening as seen in  
Figure B or C. Vertical or horizontal mounting will depend on your application.  
4. Simply close the window appropriately, providing a tight seal against the Window Kit’s  
Adapter Board. A tight seal will ensure the unit’s efficiency.

Drop Ceiling Installation  
It may be necessary to modify some aspects of the installation process for certain types of  
ceilings. In both typical and modified installations, the user must determine the fitness of  
hardware and procedures before installing. The procedures described in this manual may not be  
appropriate for all applications.  
1. Measure the dimensions of your ceiling grid and adjust the Adapter Board accordingly. The  
Adapter Board should measure slightly longer than the spacing in the grid so that it may rest  
directly on top of the grid panels. When the correct measurement is determined, lock the  
board in place using the supplied nut and bolt (see Figure A.)  
2. Attach the Exhaust/Cooling Duct with the Duct Adapter into the oblong hole in the Window/  
Drop Ceiling Kit’s Adapter Board. The adapter will snap into place.  
3. Slide your ceiling tile out of the way and place the Adapter Board inside the ceiling space, on  
top of the grid panels as seen in the diagram. Note: There should be at least 10 to 15 inches of  
space above the Exhaust/Cooling Duct so that the duct is not blocked.

Slide ceiling tile  
4. Slide your ceiling tile back into place as far as it will go. Be sure to slide the tile back as far  
as it can go to ensure the unit’s efficiency.  
Note: The Exhaust Duct (longer tube) can be stretched to a maximum length of 118 inches (300  
cm). It is better to keep the duct’s length to a minimum. Excessive stretching or bending of the  
duct will affect cooling efficiency.

Operation  
Dealing with Condensation  
Over time, condensation will form when the SRCOOL12K/SRXCOOL12K is in Cool or  
Dehumidify Modes. This unit offers a built-in evaporator that takes this condensation and re-  
evaporates it back into the hot exhaust stream. The unit contains no user-removable tank that  
requires emptying.  
A Drainage Outlet on the side of the unit exists for those wanting a dedicated drainage system  
instead of re-evaporation. Simply connect a draining tube to the Drainage Outlet and run the  
tube to your facility’s drainage receptacle.  
For those opting to use a dedicated drainage system, if the drainage system becomes clogged,  
there is a small internal reservoir that will collect the water until the system is cleared. If not  
cleared in time or if the reservoir fills, the unit will automatically shut down.  
Drainage Outlet  
Before implementing a dedicated drainage system, be sure the power is  
off and the unit is unplugged! Failure to heed this warning may result in  
electrical shock!  
General Maintenance  
The SRCOOL12K/SRXCOOL12K has been designed to give you many years of dependable service. It is important, however, to care for the unit  
and practice routine maintenance procedures to insure proper and efficient functioning.  
Cleaning the Air Filters  
It is important to keep the air filters clean and free of dust. When the filters become dirty or covered in dust, it decreases the cooling effect and can  
threaten air quality. Tripp Lite recommends cleaning the filters at least once every two weeks.  
Before cleaning the air filters, turn the unit off and be sure it is unplugged! Failure to heed this warning may result in  
electrical shock or other personal injury!  
1. Slide out the Air Filter Covers as seen in the diagram.  
2. Remove the air filters and wash it in warm water with a neutral detergent. DO NOT put  
the filters into a dishwasher or use harsh detergents or chemicals. Let the filters air dry  
completely. Note: DO NOT use hot water over 104°F (40°C) to clean the filters.  
3. Replace the filters and slide the Air Filter Covers back into their original position. You are  
now ready to replace the unit to its original location and resume normal use.  
Cleaning the Cabinet  
It is recommended that the cabinet be cleaned periodically to avoid excess dust build up.  
Before cleaning the cabinet, turn the unit off and be sure it is unplugged!  
Failure to heed this warning may result in electrical shock or other  
personal injury!  
1. Wipe down the unit with a dry, non-abrasive cloth. Do not use gasoline, benzene, thinners  
or other harsh chemicals as this can seriously damage the surface. Never pour water directly  
over the unit or into the working parts. This will cause deterioration of electrical components,  
wiring insulation and poses a threat of electrical shock.  
2. In extreme cases, wipe down the unit with a damp cloth to remove residue.
