NSTALLATION
For proper operation of the ice machine, the following installation guidelines must be followed. Failure to do so may
result in loss of production capacity, premature part failure, and may
void all warranties.
Use the following for planning the placement of the remote condenser relative to the ice machine

IMITS
Remote condenser location must not exceed
ANY
of the following:
•
Maximum rise from the ice machine to the remote condenser is 35 physical feet.
•
Maximum drop from the ice machine to the remote condenser is 10 physical feet.
•
Physical line set maximum length is 75 ft.
•
Calculated line set length maximum is 100 ft.
•
Ambient operating temperatures: -20°F (-28.9°C) to 120°F (48.9°C)

Drop = dd x 6.6 (dd = drop distance (ft.))
Rise = rd x 1.7 (rd = rise distance (ft.))
Horizontal Run = hd (hd = horizontal distance (ft.))
Calculated Line Length = Drop + Rise + Horizontal Run
NOTE: Configurations that do NOT meet these requirements must receive written authorization from the
manufacturer. This includes multi-pass or rack system remote condensers.
NOTE: Do NOT route a line set that rises, then falls, then rises or a line set that falls, then rises, then falls.

OCATION
Pre-charged line sets are available in 25, 40 or 75 foot length to connect the ice machine to the remote condenser.
Select the best available location, protecting the remote condenser from extremes of dirt, dust and sun. Meet all appli-
cable building codes. The services of a licensed electrician may be required.

TTACHMENT
Install and attach the remote condenser to the roof of the building using the methods and practices of
construction that conform to the local building codes, including having a roofing contractor secure the remote con-
denser to the roof.
Have an electrician connect the remote condenser fan motor wires to the ice machine using the junction box at the
back of the machine.

OUTING
CAUTION
!
Do not connect the pre -charged tubing until all routing and forming of the tubing has been completed.
See the coupling instructions for connecting information.
Each set of pre-charged tubing refrigerant lines consists of a 3/8 diameter liquid line and 1/2 inch diameter discharge
line. Both ends of each line have quick connect couplings, one end of the line set has a Schrader valve connection.
NOTE: The openings in the building or ceiling or wall, listed in the next step, are the minimum sizes
recommended for passing the refrigerant lines through.
