Air, Water, and Remote Cooled Service Manual
General Installation - Remote
Remote Condenser Location
Use the following for planning the placement of the condenser relative to the ice machine - see illustration on
the following page.
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.
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.
