- Page 10 General Information Introduction Ice-O-Matic Remote Condenser Systems are comprised of three components. The pre-charged remote condenser, the pre-charged ice maker and the pre-charged line set. The pre-charged line sets are available in 25, 40, or 75 foot line set lengths.
- Page 11 Remote Condenser General Information The RCA remote condensers incorporate the mixing valve in the condenser. This configuration allows up to a 100 foot calculated remote line set run. Reference the diagram below to calculate the maximum 100 foot line set run. The RGA remote condensers Do Not have a mixing valve in the condenser.
- Page 12 Remote Condenser Remote Refrigeration System The Remote Refrigeration System is shown in the above diagram. During the freezing cycle, high temperature and high pressure liquid refrigerant is directed from the condenser through a mixing valve, receiver, liquid line solenoid heat exchanger and a filter drier. The expansion valve meters refrigerant to the coils on the back of the evaporator.
- Page 13 Remote Condenser Component Description Mixing Valve (Headmaster, Low Ambient Control Valve) This valve serves as the head pressure regulating valve. It contains a pre-determined charge of nitrogen in the valve bellows. When the temperature at the condenser is above 70°F (21°C), the refrigerant flow from the compressor is directed by the mixing valve through the condenser and into the receiver.
- Page 14 1. The icemaker and the remote condenser both require a solid earth ground that meets National, State and Local Codes. 2. The Remote Condenser is designed to be wired to the Ice-O-Matic ice maker. 3. Reference the ice machine and condenser date plate for current requirements to determine wire size for electrical hook up.
- Page 15 Remote Condenser Installation Support Leg Installation-RCA 1. After removal of the packaging and fasteners, lift the condenser assembly off of the skid. 2. Locate the legs attached to the condenser assembly on the top panel. Remove the fastener holding the legs to the top panel. 3.
- Page 16 Remote Condenser Installation Proper Tubing Routing When installing the discharge and liquid lines from the remote condenser to the icemaker, please use the following guidelines: 1. The remote condenser (#2) should always be installed above the icemaker (#4) as shown with a vertical air flow.
- Page 17 Remote Condenser Installation Precharged Line Set Routing CAUTION: Do not connect the precharged tubing until all routing and forming of the tubing is complete. See the coupling instructions for connecting information. 1. Each set of preharged tubing refrigerant lines consists of a 3/8 diameter liquid line (#5) and a 1/2 inch diameter discharge line (#6).
- Page 18 Remote Condenser Installation Coupling Instructions: Initial Connections: 1. Remove the protector caps and plugs. Wipe the seats and threaded surfaces with a clean cloth to be certain that no foreign matter remains on them. 2. Lubricate the inside of the couplings, especially the O-Rings with refrigerant oil. 3.
