Installation Instructions Section 22-2 Part Number 80-1634-3Location of Ice MachineThe location selected for the ice machine must meet thefollowing criteria. If any of these criteria are not met,select another location.• The location must be free of airborne and othercontaminants.• 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-generatingequipment or in direct sunlight and must be protectedfrom weather.• The location must not obstruct air flow through oraround the ice machine. Refer to the chart below forclearance requirements.Ice Machine Heat of RejectionIce machines, like other refrigeration equipment, rejectheat through the condenser. It is helpful to know theamount of heat rejected by the ice machine when sizingair conditioning equipment where self-contained air-cooled ice machines are installed.This information is also necessary when evaluating thebenefits of using water-cooled or remote condensers toreduce air conditioning loads. The amount of heat addedto an air conditioned environment by an ice machineusing a water-cooled or remote condenser is negligible.Knowing the amount of heat rejected is also importantwhen sizing a cooling tower for a water-cooledcondenser. Use the peak figure for sizing the coolingtower.S1800M Water-Cooled*Top/Sides 8" (20.3 cm)Back 5" (12.7 cm)*There is no minimum clearance required for water-cooled or remoteice machines. This value is recommended for efficient operation andservicing only.! CautionThe ice machine must be protected if it will besubjected to temperatures below 32°F (0°C).Failure caused by exposure to freezingtemperatures is not covered by the warranty.
