Water supply installation



Automatic icemaker operation needs water pressure of 21~121 psi (1.5~8.5 kgf/cm2) (That is, a paper cup (6 oz. or 180 cc) will be fully filled within 3 seconds.)



If water pressure does not reach the rating 21 psi (1.5 kgf/cm2) or below, it is necessary to purchase a separate pressure pump for normal automatic icemaking and cool water feed.



Keep the total length of the feed water pipe tube within 26 ft (8 m). Be careful for the tube to avoid being kinked. If the tube is 26 ft (8 m) or longer it may cause trouble in water feed.



Install the water supply line where it will not be affected by heat.

Mount them in the reverse sequence of removal after they pass through the access door.
