• Avoid placing the condenser in the exhaust air stream of other equipment or within a distance
equal to the width of the condenser from a wall or another piece of equipment. Stay away
from kitchen exhaust fans to prevent grease accumulation on the fins. Use a curb, which
extends above the deepest expected pond in the condenser area of the roof.
Installation
1. Unpack the condenser and install the mounting legs.
2. Fasten the condenser to its mounting surface using methods that will satisfy the building
codes in your area. The condenser must not be lower than the receiver.
3. The line sets are packed separately, with the quantity and length marked on the carton. Make
sure that the lines are correct for your installation.
4. A single circuit condenser installation, which uses one line set, will require a 1-3/4" dia. hole to
pass the lines through a ceiling or wall. The lines for a 2 circuit condenser require a 2" dia.
hole.
5. Each line set consists of a 3/8" liquid line, and a 1/2" insulated discharge line. Connect the
3/8" line to the lower (liquid) fitting on the condenser, and to the "Refrigerant In" on the ice
maker. The 1/2" line connects to the upper (inlet) fitting on the condenser, and the
"Refrigerant Out" on the ice maker.
6. Each fitting on the line sets, condenser and ice maker is self-sealing, and should be tightened
1/4 turn more than hand tight. Always use a backup wrench to prevent tubing twist when
tightening these fittings.
7. The condenser fan motor requires power supply provisions that comply with all applicable
code requirements. The Ice Maker is provided with wire connection pigtails that include an L1
red wire for connection to the fan motor circuit along with L2 and Grounding conductors.
8. The refrigerant lines should be routed inside the building or otherwise mechanically protected
wherever possible.
Remote condenser Ice Maker models from the factory are provided with adequate refrigerant
charge to accommodate all acceptable condenser ambient temperatures and up to 50 ft.
refrigerant lines. The Ice Maker Nameplate label on the rear of the cabinet indicates the factory
charge amount, maximum total charge, and refrigerant type. Ice makers are provided with re-
sealable refrigerant line connection couplings.
