  • Page 26: Calculating Remote Condenser Installation Distances

    Installation Instructions CALCULATING REMOTE CONDENSER INSTALLATION DISTANCES Line Set Length The maximum length is 100' (30.5 m). The ice machine compressor must have the proper oil return. The receiver is designed to hold a charge sufficient to operate the ice machine in ambient temperatures between -20°F (-28.9°C) and 120°F (49°C), with line set lengths of up to 100' (30.5 m).
  • Page 27: Lengthening Or Reducing Line Set Lengths

    Section 2 LENGTHENING OR REDUCING LINE SET LENGTHS In most cases, by routing the line set properly, shortening will not be necessary. When shortening or lengthening is required, do so before connecting the line set to the ice machine or the remote condenser. This prevents the loss of refrigerant in the ice machine or condenser.
