Remote Condenser Installation
For proper operation of the ICE-O-Matic ice machine, the following installation guidelines must be followed. Failure to
do so may result in loss of production capacity, premature part failure, and may void all warranties.
Remote condensers must be installed per local building codes. A two to four inch diameter roof penetration will be
needed for refrigerant lines and electrical conduit. The penetration should be within two feet of where the condenser
will be located. A roof jack must be installed at the penetration.
Installation Guidelines
Ambient operating temperatures: -20°F (-28.9°C) to 120°F (48.9°C)
Maximum refrigerant line length: 60 ft. (18.29 Meters)
Maximum vertical rise:
16 ft. (4.88 Meters)
Minimum condenser height: Flake Series ice machine remote condensers must not be installed more than 6
feet (1.3 meters) below the refrigerant line quick connects at the rear of the ice machine. No part of the refrigerant
lines, between the ice machine and the remote condenser, should fall below this point. Condensers must have a
vertical airflow.
