6. Electrical Connection
WARNING
1. Electrical connection must meet national, state, and
local electrical code requirements. Failure to meet
these code requirements could result in death,
electric shock, serious injury, fi re, or severe damage
to equipment.
2.
THE REMOTE CONDENSER UNIT MUST BE
GROUNDED (EARTHED)
. Install a proper ground
(earth) wire from the icemaker's fan motor junction
box terminal block to the remote condenser
unit's terminal block. See Fig. 14. Use wire of an
appropriate gage and outdoor rating. Failure to
properly ground (earth) the unit could result in death
or serious injury.
3. Install line and neutral wires from the icemaker's
fan motor junction box terminal block to the remote
condenser unit's terminal block. Use wire of an
appropriate gage and outdoor rating.
4. If a power supply cord is used instead of conduit to
connect the icemaker to the remote condenser unit,
this cord should be rated for outdoor use. A certifi ed
strain relief (gland) rated IPX4 should be used
where the cord enters the remote condenser unit.
5. Do not connect the remote condenser unit to an
external power source.
6. To reduce the risk of electric shock, make all
remote condenser unit connections before
connecting the icemaker power supply.
7. On remote air-cooled models, the icemaker should
have power for a minimum of 4 hours prior to
startup to prevent compressor damage.

1) Remove the louver panel.
2) Remove the icemaker's fan motor junction box cover.
Remove the remote condenser unit's junction box cover.
3) Install a ground (earth) wire from the icemaker's
fan motor junction box terminal block to the remote
condenser unit's terminal block. Use wire of an
appropriate gage and outdoor rating.
4) Install line and neutral wires from the icemaker's
fan motor junction box terminal block to the remote
condenser unit's terminal block. Use wire of an
appropriate gage and outdoor rating.
WARNING! The
remote condenser unit fan motors operate on
115VAC. DO NOT connect the remote condenser unit
