Location of Ice Machine
The location selected for the ice machine must meet the
following criteria. If any of these criteria are not met,
select another location.
•
The location must be free of airborne and other
contaminants.
•
The air temperature must be at least 35°F (1.6°C),
but must not exceed 110°F (43.4°C).
•
The location must not be near heat-generating
equipment or in direct sunlight.
•
The location must not obstruct airflow through or
around the ice machine. Refer to the chart below for
clearance requirements.
Ice Machine Head Section Clearance
Requirements
QDUALC:
Top/Sides 5” (127 mm) is recommended for efficient
operation and servicing. There is no minimum clearance
required.
Back 1” (25.4 mm) required when routing electrical inlet,
water inlet and refrigeration tubing out of the top of the
unit.
5” (127 mm) required when routing all connections out
the back.
Stacking Two Ice Machines on a Single
Storage Bin
QDUALC ice machines cannot be stacked. However an
adapter is available that allows two QDUALC ice
machines to be placed side by side on a 60” Manitowoc
F & B style bins.
Location of CVD Condensing Unit
The location selected for the CVD Condensing Unit must
meet the following criteria. If any of these criteria are not
met, select another location.
•
The air temperature must be at least -20°F (-28.9°C)
but must not exceed 120°F (48.8°C).
•
The location must not allow exhaust fan heat and/or
grease to enter the condenser.
•
The location must not obstruct airflow through or
around the condensing unit. Refer to the chart below
for clearance requirements.
Condensing Unit Clearance Requirements
Top/Sides
There is no minimum clearance required, although 6”
(13 cm) is recommended for efficient operation and
servicing only.,
Front/Back
48” (122 cm)
Condensing Unit Heat of Rejection
Ice machines, like other refrigeration equipment, reject
heat through the condenser. It is helpful to know the
amount of heat rejected by the ice machine when sizing
air conditioning equipment where self-contained air-
cooled ice machines are installed.
This information is also necessary when evaluating the
benefits of using water-cooled or CVD® Condensing
Units to reduce air conditioning loads. The amount of
heat added to an air-conditioned environment by a
QuietQube® ice machine head section is negligible.
! Caution
The ice machine head section must be protected if it
will be subjected to temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
Failure caused by exposure to freezing
temperatures is not covered by the warranty. See
“Removal from Service/Winterization”.
