6.1 Positioning the machine
- Place the generator on a level, fl at surface.
- The generator must be located in a position protected
from bad weather, water spray or any other liquid
and in a non-aggressive environment.
- Position the generator so as to maintain adequate ac-
cess for upkeep and maintenance (see Installation
Handling - free access)
- The generator must be mounted suffi ciently high, in order
to permit suitable storage for its daily production of ice
(e.g. cold chamber, static or orbital silo, etc.).
- Avoid locating the ice output in the air fl ow from an
evaporator.
- Do not reduce the cross section of the ice output.
Note
In order to facilitate all upkeep and maintenance
work on the generator, (such as regular greasing of
the bearings of the shaft and the reamer), provide
accessibility below and above the machine.

Important
Risks of freezing during machine downtime
:
protect the base of the pump and valve fl oat by
means of a heater housed in the base.
This device will only be effective for an air tem-
perature of - 10°C to + 5°Cmaximum for a period
of 12 to 24 h. Beyond that, it is preferable to drain
the machine if it is stopped. Also protect the water
supply pipework
Note
When fi tting a heater resistance, provide a
circuit breaker for protection and a thermostat
to monitor the ambient air temperature.
6.2 Mountings
The opening in the generator mounting must be at least
equal to the diameter «G» of the ice chute.
Important
Do not forget to add a silicone seal all round the
base of the generator to prevent water entering the
ice storage area.
The unit is mounted by the bottom of the base using the
two holes provided for the purpose. Fibre seals ensure
the mountings are watertight.
