INSTALLATION
WARNING: Only qualified personnel sh ou ld service internal components or electrical
wiring.
LOCATION
Locate the icemaker dispenser indoors i n a well ventilated area. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and/or heat
caused by radiation. Ambient room temperature must be in the range of 60° to 90° F. Do not install unit in an
enclosed area where heat build-up could be a problem. Note: Air flow direction and spacing required shown in
Figure 1.
Consult Figure 1 for utility connection locations.
PLUMBING
Connect the icemaker to a cold, potable water source, suitable for drinking. This water source must comply wit h
the basic p lumbing code of the Building Officials and Code Administrators International Inc. (BOCA) and the
Food Service Sanitation Manual of the Food and Drug Administration. Do not install unit on a water softener
line. It is recommended that a hand shut-off valve and strainer be used on the incoming supply line. (See Figure
1 for size an d location.) For proper operation of the incoming water supply pressure must be in the range of
30-90 PSIG. Install a pressure regulating valve if above this range!
IMPORTANT: To insure proper icemaker operation and also to reduce the frequ ency o f water-related
service problems, a water filter should be installed. REMCOR recommends the use of IMI Cornelius
filter, model number 81COR01PS.
For specific recom mendations on these filter systems for your local water conditions, consult with a distributor in
your area or contact the filter manufacturer.
Connect separate drain lines to all drain connections. See Figure 2 for size and location. These lines must pitch
downward to and open drain and must contain no traps, or improper drainage will result. All drain connections
must be in accordance with the basic plumbing code of the Building Officials and Code Administrators International (BOCA) and local codes.
NOTE: In areas where con sisten tly warm water temperatures are encountered, the use of a pre-cooler
in the water line is recommended to maximize the ice production of this unit.
MODEL LP650R ONLY: REMOTE CONDENSER INSTALLATION
Remcor Prod ucts remote condenser systems come in three separate packages to complete one remote condenser a pplication. They consist of the icemaker, the remote condenser and the interconnecting pre-charged
line set.
Icemaker
The refrigeration system of a remote condenser systems is similar to a standard air cooled system with the following exceptions described below:
Mixing Valve
This valve is located at the condenser and serves as a head pressure regulating valve. As the temperature at
the condenser drops, the head pressure at the receiver will drop. When this pressure reaches 225 PSIG, the
mixing valve by-passes the condenser and meters hot discharge gas into the receiver, maintaining the 225
PSIG receiver pressure.
3 91424
Liquid Receiver
In the icemaker, a 10# liquid receiver is installed to accept the large refrigerant charge that is n ot needed when
the condenser is subjected to higher temperatures.
Pump Down System
To prevent refrigeration migration to the compressor during the off-cycle due to refrigerant to oil attraction or
temperature differential between condenser and compressor, a pump down system has been utilized in this remote condenser system.
A solenoid valve has been installed in the liquid line to the TXV and is open during normal icemaking operation.
When the bin stat opens, the solenoid valve closes and stops the flow of refrigerant to the low side of the system. The compressor is kept running by the pump down low pressure control, thereby pumping any remaining
refrigerant out of the low side into the high side liquid receiver. When the low die pressures reaches 5# the compressor is turned off. The low side control is a recycling control and if refrigerant leaks into the low side and the
pressures reaches 55# the compressor is restarted, removing the unwanted refrigerant.
REMOTE CONDENSER
The remote condenser is an air-cooled fin-pack that can be mounted in the horizontal or vertical position. Care
should be taken in the installation site to reduce prevailing wind restraints and to keep the air entrance away
from other systems air discharge. This will keep the remote system operating at its’ designed efficiencies.
This remote condenser system is designed to operate in temperatures of --20 degrees F through 120 degrees F.
These limits should be considered when installing equipment.
The remote condenser is supplied with a low ambient mixing valve that assures that the receiver will under all
temperatures have a liquid pressure of 225 PSIG. This is required for proper txv operation and to assure sufficient pressure when hot gas by-pass is required. This valve eliminates the requirement of any fan cycling controls.
The remote condenser is not required to cycle with the hot gas portion of the ice making cycle. The wiring of the
condenser can either be wired to a separate power source or, to allow the condenser to shut down with the icemaker, it may be wired per the electrical diagram enclosed.
NOTE: When servicing remote condenser make sure the power is disconnected.
Electrical volt age requirements are rated on the condenser f or separate power sourcing.
PRE-CHARGED LINE SETS
The pre-charged line sets (25 ft. long or 40 ft. long) join tog ether a totally sealed pre-charged system ready for
operation after installation. The line set is supplied with 3/8” quick couplings for the liquid line and 1/2” quick
couplings for the discharge line. As these couplings are “one time” couplings, if they are ever removed and reinstalled, the system refrigerant charge will be lost and an evacuation and recharge of the system will be necessary.

1. Remove d ust cap and plugs if used, making sure that component synthetic seals are intact.
2. Wipe off coupling seals and threaded surfaces with a clean cloth to prevent the inclusion of dirt or any foreign material in the system.
3. LUBRICATE rub ber seal in male half with refrigeration oil. Thread coupling halves together by hand to insure prop er mating of threa ds, Use proper size wrenches (on coupling body hex and on union nut) and
tighten until coupling bodies “bottom” or a definite resistance is felt. Using a marker or ink pen, mark a line
lengthwise from the coupling hex to the bulkhead. then tighten an additional 1/6 to 1/4 turn. The misalignment of the line will show the degree of tightening. This final turn is necessary to insure tha t the knife edge
metal seal bites into the brass seat of the coupling halves, forming the leakproof joint. If torque wrench is
used, the following torque values are recommended:
Coupling Size Ft. Lbs.
--8 35
--12 50
--16 65
Routing of line sets are a very important factor in trouble free installation.
1. Make sure condenser will be located above the icemaker.
2. Route line sets to keep excess tubing inside of building.
3. When coiling excess tubing make sure coils runs vertically with the flow of refrigerant.
ELECTRICAL (see figure 4 )
A 4 X 2 junction box is located at the rear of the unit for the supply hook-up. Connect the icemaker to its’ own
individual circuit per the National Electric Code and Local Code (see SPECIFICATIONS for ampacity and fuse
size).
IMPORTANT: The wire size must be adequate for the ampacity rating and the supply voltage must be
within a range of ± 10% for proper icemaker operation.
NOTE: That the unit requires a 2-wire systems plus earth ground for proper operation.
