    C. Location CAUTION 1. This icemaker is not intended for outdoor use. Normal operating ambient temperature should be within 45°F to 100°F (7°C to 38°C); Normal operating water temperature should be within 45°F to 90°F (7°C to 32°C). Operation of the icemaker, for extended periods, outside of these normal temperature ranges may affect icemaker performance.
  • Page 17: Electrical Connection

    E. Electrical Connection WARNING 1. Electrical connection must be hard-wired and must meet national, state, and local electrical code requirements. Failure to meet these code requirements could result in death, electric shock, serious injury, fire, or extensive damage to equipment. 2.

    10 PSIG. Do not run the icemaker until the proper water pressure is reached. • A plumbing permit and services of a licensed plumber may be required in some areas. • External filters, strainers, or softeners may be required depending on water quality. Contact your local Hoshizaki distributor for recommendations. • Water supply pressure should be a minimum of 10 PSIG and a maximum of 113 PSIG. If the pressure exceeds 113 PSIG, the use of a pressure reducing valve is required. • The storage bin drain line, drip tray drain line, and water-cooled condenser drain line (if applicable) must be run separately.

    2. Water-Cooled Condenser a) Connection to an Open Drain System • Condenser water supply inlet is 1/2" female pipe thread (FPT). A minimum of 3/8" OD copper tubing is recommended for the condenser water supply line. • A condenser water supply line shut-off valve and drain valve should be installed. • Condenser drain outlet is 3/8" FPT. A minimum of 3/8" OD hard pipe is recommended for the condenser drain line. • In some areas, a back flow preventer may be required in the condenser water supply line.
