Air, Water, and Remote Cooled Service Manual
General Installation - Remote
Plumbing Requirements
All models require connection to cold, potable water. A hand actuated valve within site of the machine is
required.
Water Filters
Install a new cartridge if the filters were used with a prior machine.
All models require drain tubing to be attached to them. There is a single ¾" FPT drain fitting in the back of the
cabinet.
Install new tubing when replacing a prior ice machine, as the tubing will have been sized for the old model and
might not be correct for this one.
Connect water supply to water inlet fitting.
Note: This NSF listed model has a 1" anti-back flow air gap between the potable water inlet tube end
and the highest possible reservoir water level, no back flow device is required.
Connect drain tubing to drain fitting.
Route the drain tubing to building drain. Follow local codes for drain air gap.
Use rigid drain tubes and route them separately – do not Tee into the bin's drain.
Vent the reservoir drain. A vertical vent at the back of the drain, extended about 8 – 10" will allow the gravity
drain to empty and also keep any surges during draining from discharging water.
Horizontal runs of drain tubing need a ¼" per fall per foot of run for proper draining.
Follow all applicable codes.
Electrical
The machine is not supplied with a power cord, one must either be field installed or the machine hard-wired.
The dataplate on the back of the cabinet details the power requirements, including voltage, phase, minimum
circuit ampacity and maximum fuse size. HACR type circuit breakers may be used in place of fuses. Extension
cords are not permitted. Use of a licensed electrician is recommended.
The ice maker is designed to operate on its own electrical circuit and must be individually fused. Voltage
variation must not exceed the limits listed earlier.
The remote condenser is designed to be powered from the ice machine. A separate knockout hole has been
provided in the ice maker electrical junction box.
Electrical connections are made inside the junction box in the back panel of the ice machine.
Remove the junction box cover and route the power cord through the access hole and properly attach the
power supply wires to the leads in the junction box.
Attach the remote condenser fan motor wires to the wires in the junction box tagged "fan motor leads".
Install field supplied strain reliefs per code. Attach a ground wire to the ground connection in the junction box.
Check voltage when complete.
Return the junction box cover to its original position and secure with the original screws.
Follow all applicable local, state and national codes.
