Check voltage on the line and the ice maker’s
data plate before connecting the unit.

WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN
CONNECTIONS
GENERAL
When choosing the water supply for the ice cuber
consideration should be given to:
a) Length of run
b) Water clarity and purity
c) Adequate water supply pressure
Since water is the most important single ingredient
in producting ice you cannot emphasize too
much the three items listed above.
Low water pressure, below 1 bar may cause
malfunction of the ice maker unit.
Water containing excessive minerals will tend to
produce cloudy coloured ice cubes, plus scale
build-up on parts of the water system.
WATER SUPPLY
Air Cooled Versions
Connect the 3/4" male fitting of the solenoid
water inlet valve, using the flexible tube supplied,
to the cold water supply line with regular plumbing
fitting and a shut-off valve installed in an
accessible position between the water supply
line and the unit. If water contains a high level of
impurities, it is advisable to consider the use an
appropriate water filter or conditioner.
Water supply - Water cooled models
The water cooled versions of SCOTSMAN Ice
Makers require two separate inlet water supplies,
one for the water sprayed for making the ice cubes
and the other for the water cooled condenser.
Connect the 3/4" GAS male fitting of the water
inlet, using the flexible tubing or a 3/8" O.D.
copper pipe, to the cold water supply line with
regular plumbing fitting and a shut-off valve
installed in an accessible position between the
water supply line and the unit.
WATER DRAIN
The recommended drain tube is a plastic or
flexible tube with 18 mm (3/4") I.D. which runs to
an open trapped and vented drain.
WATER DRAIN - WATER COOLED MODELS
Connect the 3/4" male fitting of the condenser
water drain, utilizing a second flexible hose, to
the open trapped and vented drain.
NOTE.
The water supply and the water drain
must be installed to conform with the local
code. In some case a licensed plumber and/
or a plumbing permit is required.
WATER DRAIN - EC version
The water can be pumped out up to 1.5 m rise
or
to 30 m on horizontal length.
F.
FINAL CHECK LIST
1.
Is the unit in a room where ambient
temperatures are within a minimum of 10
°
C
(50
°
F) even in winter months?
2.
Is there at least a 15 cm (6") clearance
around the unit for proper air circulation?
3.
Is the unit level? (IMPORTANT)
4.
Have all the electrical and plumbing
connections been made, and is the water
supply shut-off valve open?
5.
Has the voltage been tested and checked
against the data plate rating?
6.
Has the water supply pressure been
checked to ensure a water pressure of at
least 1 bar (14 psi).
7.
Check all refrigerant lines and conduit
lines to guard against vibrations and possible
failure.
8.
Have the bolts holding the compressor down
been checked to ensure that the compressor is
snugly fitted onto the mounting pads?
9.
Have the bin liner and cabinet been wiped
clean?
