Remote Condenser Location

Use the following for planning the placement of the
condenser relative to the ice machine
Location Limits - condenser location must not exceed
ANY of the following limits:
• Maximum rise from the ice machine to the
condenser is 35 physical feet
• Maximum drop from the ice machine to the
condenser is 15 physical feet
• Physical line set maximum length is 100 feet.
• Calculated line set length maximum is 150.
Calculation Formula:
• Drop = dd x 6.6 (dd = distance in feet)
• Rise = rd x 1.7 (rd = distance in feet)
• Horizontal Run = hd x 1 (hd = distance in feet)
• Calculation: Drop(s) + Rise(s) + Horizontal Run =
dd+rd+hd = Calculated Line Length
Configurations that do NOT meet these requirements
must receive prior written authorization from
Scotsman.
Max 35'

Max 15'
rd
Do NOT:
Route a line set that rises, then falls, then rises.
Route a line set that falls, then rises, then falls.
Calculation Example 1:
The condenser is to be located 5 feet below the ice
machine and then 20 feet away horizontally.
5 feet x 6.6 = 33. 33 + 20 = 53. This location would be
acceptable
Calculation Example 2:
The condenser is to be located 35 feet above and
then 100 feet away horizontally. 35 x 1.7 = 59.5.
59.5 +100 = 159.5. 159.5 is greater than the 150
maximum and is NOT acceptable.
Operating a machine with an unacceptable
configuration is misuse and will void the warranty.
