Remote Condenser Guidelines

The following remote ice makers incorporate the
U
mixing valve in the condenser
U
. This configuration allows up to a 100
foot calculated remote line set run. Reference the diagram below to calculate the maximum 100 foot line set run.
Maximum
actual line set run
is limited to 100 ft. Add ¼ ounce of refrigerant for each actual foot from 75 feet to 100
feet actual lineset run.

Limitations for remote machines that have the mixing valve mounted in the condenser.
Maximum Rise is 35 feet.
Maximum Drop is 15 feet.
Maximum equivalent run is 100 feet.
Formula for figuring maximum equivalent run is as follows:
Rise x 1.7 + Drop x 6.6 + horizontal run = equivalent run.
Examples:
35 ft. rise x 1.7 + 40 ft. horizontal = 99.5 equivalent feet line run
35 ft. rise
40 ft. horizontal
10 ft. drop x 6.6 + 34 ft horizontal
= 100 equivalent feet line run
10 ft. drop
34 ft. horizontal
Verify the ICE machine is compatible with the remote condenser. Some
ice machines and some remote condensers may or may not have a Mixing
Valve (Head Master). Only one valve is required per system. Kits are
available to modify the condenser for compatibility. For more information
contact your Ice-O-Matic Distributor.
