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.

This information is also necessary when evaluating the

benefits of using water-cooled or remote condensers to

reduce air conditioning loads. The amount of heat added to

an air conditioned environment by an ice machine using a

water-cooled or remote condenser is negligible.

Knowing the amount of heat rejected is also important

when sizing a cooling tower for a water-cooled condenser.

Use the peak figure for sizing the cooling tower.

Installation Instructions Section 2

Water and Drain Requirements

POTABLE WATER REQUIREMENTS

Follow these guidelines to install water inlet lines:

• Do not connect the ice machine to a hot water supply.

Be sure all hot water restrictors installed for other

equipment are working. (Check valves on sink faucets,

dishwashers, etc.)

• If water pressure exceeds the maximum of 80 psig

(552kPA) recommended pressure, obtain a water

pressure regulator from your Manitowoc distributor.

• Install a water shut-off valve and union for both the ice

making and condenser water lines.

• Insulate water inlet lines to prevent condensation.

• Plumbing must conform to local codes.

Caution

Do not apply heat to water valve inlet fitting or over-

tighten. This will damage plastic water inlet connection.

DRAIN CONNECTIONS

Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to

prevent drain water from flowing back into the ice machine

and storage bin:

• Drain lines must have a 1.5 inch drop per 5 feet of run

(2.5 cm per meter), and must not create traps.

• The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate

drainage from all drains.

• Run separate bin and water-cooled condenser drain

lines. Insulate them to prevent condensation.

• Vent the bin and ice machine drain to the atmosphere.

The ice machine drain requires an 18" (46 cm) vent. Do

not vent the condenser drain on water-cooled models.

• Drains must have a union or other suitable means to

allow in-place disconnection from the ice machine

when servicing is required.

COOLING TOWER APPLICATIONS

A water cooling tower installation does not require

modification of the ice machine. The water regulator valve

for the condenser continues to control the refrigeration

discharge pressure.

It is necessary to know the amount of heat rejection, and

pressure drop through the condenser and water valves

(inlet and outlet) when using a cooling tower on an ice

machine.

• Water entering the condenser must not be lower than

37°F (3°C) or exceed 90°F (32°C).

• Water flow through the condenser must not exceed 5

gal. (19 L) per minute.

• Allow for a pressure drop of 7 psi (48 kPa) between the

condenser water inlet and the outlet of the ice machine.

• Water exiting the condenser must not exceed 110°F

(43°C).

Electrical Service

Warning

All wiring must conform to local, state and national

codes.

VOLTAGE

The maximum allowable voltage variation is ±10% of the

rated voltage at ice machine start-up (when the electrical

load is highest).

Warning

The ice machine must be grounded in accordance with

national and local electrical codes.

All electrical work, including wire routing and grounding,

must conform to local, state and national electrical codes.

The following precautions must be observed:

• The ice machine must be grounded.

• A separate fuse/circuit breaker must be provided for

each ice machine.

• A qualified electrician must determine proper wire size

dependent upon location, materials used and length

of run (minimum circuit ampacity can be used to help

select the wire size).

• The maximum allowable voltage variation is +/-10 of

the rated voltage at ice machine start-up (when the

electrical load is highest).

• Check all ground screws in the control box and verify

they are tight before starting the ice machine.

Important

Observe correct polarity of incoming line voltage.

Incorrect polarity can lead to erratic ice machine

operation.

FUSE/CIRCUIT BREAKER

A dedicated circuit and a separate fuse/circuit breaker are

required for each ice machine.

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER

We do not recommend the use of a GFCI/GFI circuit

protection with our equipment. If a GFCI/GFI is required

by code, use a GFCI/GFI breaker rather than outlet which is

more prone to intermittent nuisance trips than panel circuit

breakers.

MINIMUM POWER CORD SPECIFICATIONS

The wire size to the receptacle is dependent upon location,

materials used, length of run, etc., so it must be determined

by a qualified electrician. Local, state or national

requirements will supersede our minimum requirements.

FOR UNITED KINGDOM ONLY

As the colors of the wires in the mains lead of the

appliance may not correspond with the colored markings

identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

• The wire which is colored green and yellow must be

connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked

with the letter E or by the earth ground symbol or

colored green or green and yellow.

• The wire colored blue must be connected to the

terminal which is marked with the letter N or colored

black.

• The wire colored brown must be connected to the

terminal which is marked with the letter L or colored

red.

Installation Instructions Section 2

Refrigeration Line Set Installation

Remote Condensing Unit Only

GENERAL

Refrigeration line set installations consist of vertical and

horizontal line set distances between the ice machine and

the condensing unit. The following guidelines, drawings

and calculation methods must be followed to assure

proper oil return and remote condensing unit/ice machine

operation.

The refrigeration line set installer must be USA

Government-Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

certified in proper refrigerant handling and servicing

procedures.

Warning

The QuietQube Condensing unit contains refrigerant

charge. The two refrigeration valves must remain closed

until proper installation of the line sets is completed.

Warning

Disconnect electrical power to the ice machine head

section and remote condensing unit before proceeding.

Step 1 Verify Ice Machine and Remote Condensing

Unit Locations Are Within Guidelines

Prior to installation of the ice machine head section and

remote condensing unit be sure that the distance between

them is within the line set routing guidelines outlined in

this manual.

Roof/Wall Penetration

If required, cut a 3-inch (76.2 mm) circular hole in the wall or

roof for routing of refrigeration tubing. A qualified person

must perform all roof penetrations.

Step 2 Route Refrigeration Tubing

Properly route refrigeration tubing between the ice

machine head section and the remote condensing unit.

A. LINE SET LENGTH

100 feet (30.5 m) Length: The maximum measured length

the line set can be.

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 (48.9°C), with line set lengths of up

to 100 feet (30.5 m). The maximum amount of line set which

can be exposed on the rooftop is 25% of the total length of

the line set.

Important

QuietQube® ice machines will not function with line

sets greater than 100 feet (30.5 m). Do not attempt to

go beyond this distance and add refrigerant charge to

compensate!

B. LINE SET RISE OR DROP

35 ft. (10.7 m)

MAX.

DISTANCE

35 feet (10.7 m) Rise: The maximum distance the remote

condensing unit can be above the ice machine.

15 ft. (4.5 m)

Section 2 Installation Instructions

C. SUCTION LINE OIL TRAPS

Caution

Do not form unwanted traps in refrigeration lines. Never

coil excess refrigeration tubing.

0 to 20 feet (0 to 6.1 m) Rise: No oil trap is required when

the condensing unit is located 20 feet (6.1 m) or less above

the ice machine head section.

21 to 35 feet (6.4 to 10.7 m) Rise: The suction line requires

an additional Oil Trap (“S” type) to be installed. Install

the trap as close as possible to midpoint between the

ice machine head section and remote condensing unit.

S-TrapKits are available from Manitowoc.

21 ft. (6.4 m)

OR MORE RISE

ADDITIONAL

TRAP KIT

REQUIRED

Service Loop

A service loop in the line set permits easy access to the ice

machine for cleaning and service.

• A service loop is not considered an oil trap.

• The service loop is not included when calculating

length, rise or drop of the tubing run.

• Do not use hard rigid copper for the service loop.

Caution

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.

Step 3 Lengthening or Reducing Line Set Lengths

Caution

Do not form unwanted traps in refrigeration lines. Never

coil excess refrigeration tubing.

When the line set requires shortening or lengthening, do

so before connecting the line set to the ice machine head

section or the remote condensing unit.

Step 4 Connecting the line set

To prevent oxidation of the copper, purge line set and

condensing unit with dry nitrogen while brazing.

A. Connect the Line Set to the Remote Condensing Unit

Warning

The QuietQube Condensing unit contains refrigerant

charge. The two refrigeration valves must remain closed

until proper installation of the line sets is completed.

The line set shut-off valves must remain closed and be

protected from heat during the brazing process. Wrap

the valves in a wet rag or other type of heat sink prior to

brazing. Cool braze joint with water immediately after

brazing to prevent heat migration to the valve.

B. Connect the Line Set to the Ice Machine Head Section

Warning

The ice machine head section ships from the factory

pressurized with R404A refrigerant. Recover the

refrigerant from both suction and liquid line access

ports prior to cutting into refrigeration lines.

• Cut the suction and liquid tubing with a tubing cutter,

leaving enough tubing to easily braze.

• Connect the line set.

• Cool braze joint with water immediately after brazing to

prevent heat migration.

Step 5 Pressure Test and Evacuate Line Set and Ice

Machine Head Section

• Suction and liquid line set shutoff valves must remain

closed until pressure testing and evacuation are

complete.

• Pressure testing and evacuation can be performed from

the ice machine head section or CVD condensing unit

shut-off valves.

• Schrader valve core removal tools that allow for removal

and installation of the valve cores without removing

manifold gauge set hoses are recommended to

decrease the evacuation time.

• Pressure test @ 150 psi (1000 kPa) for a minimum of

15minutes.

• Minimum evacuation level is 500 microns.

Suction and liquid line shut-off valves

must remain closed until evacuation and

pressure testing are complete.

Step 6 Leak Check the Refrigeration System

Leak check the new line set connections at the ice machine

head section, condensing unit and S trap as well as all

factory joints throughout the entire system. Disconnect

power to the remote condensing unit. Place the rocker

switch into the ON position. This allows the low side and

high side pressures to equalize for leak checking. Place the

rocker switch in the OFF position. Connect power to the

remote condensing unit and allow system to pump down

after leak checking is complete.

Step 7 Open the Valves Prior to Starting the Ice

Machine

A. Slowly backseat (open-turn counterclockwise) the

suction line shutoff valve.

B. Slowly backseat (open-turn counterclockwise) the

liquid line shutoff valve.

Open suction and liquid line
