(1) Water and Drainage
Water quality has a remarkable influence on the appearance, hardness and flavour of the ice as well
as, in the machines condensed by water, on the life of the condenser.
(2) Connections to the Water Network
Use a flexible food grade pipe.
Pressure should be established between 14 and 85 psi (1 and 6 Bar / 0.1 and 0.6 MPa).
If pressures overpass such values, install the necessary corrective devices.
The water connection needs to be dedicated (only piece of equipment hooked to the
water line). Water line from the water valve to the ice
machine needs to be ¼” nominal
ID tubing.
ATTENTION: The machine shall be plumbed according to applicable Federal State and local regulations.
(3) Connection to Drainage
Drainage should be located below the level of the machine, at 5.91 inches (150 mm) minimum.
It is convenient to use a 1.18 in (30 mm) inside diameter pipe with a minimum gradient of
0,36”/ft (3
cm/meter)
(see figure).

(4) Electrical Connection
IT IS MANDATORY TO GROUND THE EQUIPMENT: To avoid possible discharges on individuals or damages to
the equipment, the machine should be grounded pursuant local and/or national regulations as the case may be.
THE MANUFACTURER SHALL BE HELD HARMLESS IN CASE OF DAMAGES ARISING DUE TO THE
LACK OF THE GROUND INSTALLATION.
The machine is supplied with a 6 feet length cable. In case the supply cable is damaged, it should be
replaced by a cable or a special kit to be furnished by the manufacturer or post-sale service. Such
replacement should be performed by qualified technical service only.
The machine should be placed in such a way that allows a minimum space between the back and the wall in
order to guarantee an easy and a risk free access to the plug.
Safeguard the socket. It is convenient to install adequate switches and fuses.
Voltage and tension are indicated on the nameplate. Variation on voltage above the 10% stated on
the nameplate could result on damages or prevent the machine from start-up.
ATTENTION: The appliance requires an independent power supply of proper capacity. See the
nameplate for electrical specifications. Failure to use an independent power supply of proper
capacity can result in a tripped breaker, blown fuse, damage to existing wiring, or component failure.
This could lead to heat generation or fire.
