Remote Condenser/Line Set Installation
REMOTE ICE MACHINES
REFRIGERANT CHARGE
Each remote ice machine ships from the factory with a
refrigerant charge appropriate for installation with line
sets of up to 50' (15.25 m). The serial tag on the ice
machine indicates the refrigerant charge.
Additional refrigerant may be required for installations
using line sets between 50' and 100’ (15.25-30.5 m)
long. If additional refrigerant is required, refer to the
chart below for the correct amount to be added.
