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).
LINE SET RISE/DROP
The maximum rise is 35' (10.7 m).
The maximum drop is 15' (4.5 m).
If a line set has a rise followed by a drop, another
rise cannot be made. Likewise, if a line set has a
drop followed by a rise, another drop cannot be
made.
