(4) CONNECTION DIAGRAM
The location must allow enough clearance for water drain and electrical connections in the rear of the ice machine.
(5) WATER SUPPLY
The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine will have an impact on the time between cleanings and ultimately
on the life of the product (mainly in water cooled units). It also will have a remarkable influence on the appearance,
hardness and flavor of the ice.
Local water conditions may require treatment of the water to inhibit scale formation, improve taste and clarity. If you are
installing a water filter system, refer to the installation instructions supplied with the filter system.
Use a flexible food grade hose.
Pressure should be between 14 and 85 psi (1 and 6 bar). If pressure overpasses such values, install a pressure regulator.
ATTENTION: The machine shall be plumbed (with adequate backflow protection) according to applicable Federal State
and local regulations.
(6) DRAINAGE
Drainage should be located below the level of the machine, at 5,9’’ (150 mm) minimum.
It is convenient that the drainage pipe is 1,18’’ (30 mm) inside diameter and with a minimum gradient of 0,36’’/ft (3 cm/
meter), see figure.
