Standard NEMA 1 control panel is shipped loose for field installation. (Optional NEMA4 enclosure is available with NEMA4/TEFC kit) Drive motor is standard ODP (open drip proof) (TEFC motor is available
with optional NEMA4/TEFC kit). Rapid Freeze ice flakers require a condensation drip pan to be fabricated and installed under flaker, but above the storage bin. Drip pan shall be constructed to prevent
condensation from entering ice storage bin.
