REMOTE CONDENSER GUIDELINES

4

Remote Condenser Installation

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

Location Limits

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:                                

ƒ)ƒ&WRƒ)ƒ&

Calculation Formula

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

Configurations that do NOT meet these 

requirements must receive written authorization 

from Ice-O-Matic. This includes multi-pass or rack 

system remote condensers

DO NOT: Route a line set that rises, then falls, then
rises or a line set that falls, then rises, then falls

Remote Condenser Location

Pre-charged line sets are available in 25, 40, 45, 60 
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 applicable 
building codes. The services of a licensed 
electrician may be required.

Roof Attachment 

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 condenser 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.

Pre-charged Line Set Routing

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.

Have a roofing contractor cut a minimum hole for 
the refrigerant lines of 2.50 inch. Check local 
codes, a separate hole may be required for the 
electrical power to the condenser. 

CAUTION: DO NOT KINK OR CRIMP
