Ice Manager diverter valve system

The Ice Manager diverter valve system delivers ice to two ice storage units enabling a single ice
machine to meet demand for ice at two locations. The system’s sensors monitor ice levels in each
storage unit and automatically switch ice delivery to the appropriate location.

Carefully review system overview (pages 4 & 5) and be sure that you have a copy

of the Follett approved site survey before proceeding with installation steps.

After thorough review of the site survey, install Horizon ice machine and

dispenser/bin(s) using the installation guide provided with each unit.

Temperature and humidity requirements

• All components, including ice transport tube, must be
operated in ambient temperatures between 40 F and
20 F (5 C and 49 C)

• Relative humidity not to exceed 55%

Ice transport tube requirements

• Maximum vertical rise of 10' (3m) from ice machine to
highest elevation of tube

• Use one continuous piece of ice transport tube. Do not
splice.

• Horizontal run should be pitched so that melt water
drains back to diverter valve. Ice transport tube run
must have at least 1/4" per foot pitch (6.4mm/0.3m)

• Secure ice transport tube as needed to eliminate dips
and traps

Ice transport tube and cable distance
requirements

• Ice machine to diverter valve - maximum run of
10' (3m)

• Diverter valve to operator control panel - maximum
run of 30' (9m)

• Diverter valve to ice receptacle - maximum run of
75' (23m)

• Distance between ice transport tube supports ­maximum of 2' (0.6m)

Operating temperature requirements

• Ice Manager diverter valve system components,
including ice transport tube must be operated in
ambient temperatures between 40 F and 120 F
(4.5 C and 49 C)

• Insulate all ice transport tube runs, making sure that
sensor cable runs outside of the insulation
