C. SUCTION LINE OIL TRAPS
0 to 20 ft. (0 to 6.1 m) Rise: The ice machine head
section has one oil trap built in which allows for a
maximum condenser rise of 20 ft. (6.1 m) without
additional traps in the suction line.
21 to 35 ft. (6.4 to 10.7 m) Rise: The suction line
requires an additional oil trap (“S” type) to be installed.
Install the trap as close as possible to midpoint
between the ice machine head section and CVD
®
Condensing Unit. S-Trap Kits are available from
Manitowoc (refer to chart).
