The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine
will have an impact on the time between cleanings and ultimately on the life of the product. Water can contain impurities either in suspension or in solution. Suspended solids can be ltered out. In solution or dissolved solids cannot be ltered, they must be diluted or treated. Water lters are recommended to remove suspended solids. Some lters have treatment in them for dissolved solids.
Check with a water treatment service for a recommendation.
RO water. This machine can be supplied with Reverse Osmosis water, but the water conductivity must be no less than 10 microSiemens/cm.
Potential for Airborne Contamination
Installing an ice machine near a source of yeast or similar material can result in the need for more frequent sanitation cleanings due to the tendency of
these materials to contaminate the machine.
Most water lters remove chlorine from the water
supply to the machine which contributes to this
situation. Testing has shown that using a lter that does not remove chlorine, such as the Scotsman Aqua Patrol, will greatly improve this situation.
Warranty Information
The warranty statement for this product is provided separately from this manual. Refer to it for applicable coverage. In general warranty covers defects in material or workmanship. It does not cover
maintenance, corrections to installations, or situations when the machine is operated in circumstances that
exceed the limitations printed above.

E Series Air, Water or Remote User Manual

Location:

While the machine will operate satisfactorily within the listed air and water temperature limits, it will produce more ice when those temperatures are nearer the
lower limits. Avoid locations that are hot, dusty, greasy or conned. Air cooled models need plenty of room air to breathe. Air cooled models must have at least
six inches of space at the back for air discharge;
however, more space will allow better performance.
Airow
Air ows into the front of the cabinet and out the back. The air lters are on the outside of the front panel and are easily removed for cleaning.
Bin compatibility
All models have the same footprint: 22 inches wide by 24 inches deep. Conrm available space when replacing a prior model.
Bin & adapter list:
• B322S – no adapter needed
B330P or B530P or B530S – Use KBT27
B842S – KBT39
B948S – KBT38 for single unit
B948S – KBT38-2X for two units side by side
• BH1100, BH1300 and BH1600 upright bins include
ller panels to accommodate a single 22 inch wide ice machine. No adapter is needed.
Dispenser compatibility
Only nugget ice models may be used with ice
dispensers. Flaked ice is not dispensable.
Airow
Options
Side air ow kits KPFSA223 or KPFSA227 are available for air cooled models. A lter kit for the remote condenser is KERCF
Ice is made until it lls the bin enough to block an infrared light beam inside the base of the machine. A eld installed kit is available to adjust the maintained ice level lower. The kit number is KVS.
The standard controller has excellent diagnostic capabilities and communicates to the user through the
AutoAlert light panel, seen through the front panel. Field installed kits are available that can log data and provide additional information when the front panel is removed. The kit numbers are KSBU and KSB-NU. See page 21.
ID150 – use KBT42 and KDIL-PN-150, includes KVS, KNUGDIV and R629088514
ID200 – use KBT43 and KNUGDIV and KVS
ID250 – use KBT43 and KNUGDIV and KVS

Unpacking & Install Prep

Remove the carton from the skid. Check for hidden
freight damage, notify the carrier immediately if any is
found. Retain the carton for the carrier’s inspection.
The machine is not bolted to the skid. If strapped remove the strap.
Place on Bin or Dispenser
If reusing an existing bin, be sure that the bin is in good shape and that the gasket tape on the
top is not torn up. Water leaks, not covered by warranty, could result from a poor sealing surface. If
installing a remote or a remote low side, a new bin is recommended due to the high cost to the user of
replacing an old bin when a remote system is on top.
Install the correct adapter, following the directions
supplied with that adapter.
Hoist the machine onto the adapter.
Note: The machine is heavy! Use of a mechanical lift is recommended.
Panel Removal
Position the machine on the bin or adapter. Secure
with straps from the hardware bag packed with the
machine, or those supplied with the adapter.
Remove any plastic covering the stainless steel panels.
Remove any packaging, such as tape or foam blocks, that may be near the gear reducer or ice chute.
Level the bin and ice machine front to back and left to right by using the bin leg levelers.
1. Locate and loosen the two screws at the bottom of the front panel.
2. Pull the front panel out at the bottom until it clears.
3. Lower the front panel down and off the machine.
4. Remove two screws at the front of the top panel.
Lift up the front of the top panel, push the top panel
back an inch, then lift to remove.
5. Locate and loosen the screw holding each side panel to the base. Left side panel also has a screw holding it to the control box.

Remote Condenser Location - Limits

Use the following for planning the placement of the
condenser relative to the ice machine
Location Limits - condenser location must not exceed ANY of the following limits:
• Maximum rise from the ice machine to the condenser is 35 physical feet
• Maximum drop from the ice machine to the condenser is 15 physical feet
Physical line set maximum length is 100 feet.
Calculated line set length maximum is 150.
Calculation Formula:
Drop = dd x 6.6 (dd = distance in feet)
Rise = rd x 1.7 (rd = distance in feet)
• Horizontal Run = hd x 1 (hd = distance in feet)
• Calculation: Drop(s) + Rise(s) + Horizontal
Congurations that do NOT meet these requirements must receive prior written authorization from Scotsman to maintain warranty.
Do NOT:
Route a line set that rises, then falls, then rises.
Route a line set that falls, then rises, then falls.
Calculation Example 1:
The condenser is to be located 5 feet below the ice
machine and then 20 feet away horizontally.
5 feet x 6.6 = 33. 33 + 20 = 53. This location would be
acceptable
Calculation Example 2:
The condenser is to be located 35 feet above and then 100 feet away horizontally. 35 x 1.7 = 59.5.
59.5 +100 = 159.5. 159.5 is greater than the 150 maximum and is NOT acceptable.
• Run = dd+rd+hd = Calculated Line Length
rd Max 35 feet
dd Max 15 feet
Operating a machine with an unacceptable
conguration is misuse and will void the warranty.

Water - Remote Models

The water supply for ice making must be cold, potable
water. There is a single 3 8” male are potable water connection on the back panel.
Backow
The design of the oat valve and reservoir prevents potable water backow by means of a 1" air gap between the reservoir's maximum water level and the oat valve water inlet orice.
Drain
There is one ¾” FPT condensate drain tting at the back of the cabinet.
Attach Tubing
1. Connect the potable water supply to the potable
water tting, 3 / 8” OD copper tubing or the equivalent is recommended.
2. Change the cartridge on the existing water lter (if
any present).
Do not Tee ice machine drains into the drain tube
from the ice storage bin or dispenser. Back ups
could contaminate and / or melt the ice in the bin or
dispenser. Be sure to vent the bin drain.
Follow all local and national codes for tubing, traps
and air gaps.
3. Connect the drain tube to
the condensate drain tting. Use rigid tubing.

Maintenance: Sensors

The control that senses bin full and empty is a photo­electric eye, therefore it must be kept clean so it
can “see”. At least twice a year, remove the ice level
sensors from the base of the ice chute, and wipe the
inside clean, as illustrated.
1. Remove front panel.
The ice machine senses water by a probe located
near the water reservoir. At least twice a year, the probe should be wiped clean of mineral build-up.
Probes
1. Shut off the water supply.
2. Pull photo eye holders forward to release them.
3. Wipe clean as needed. Do not scratch the photo­eye portion.
4. Return the eye holders to their normal positions and return the front panel to its original position.
Note: Eye holders must be mounted properly. They
snap into a centered position and are properly located when the wires are routed to the back and the left eye
is the one with 2 wires at the connector.
2. Remove front panel.
3. Remove the hose from the water sensor, use a hose clamp pliers for this.
4. Loosen mounting screw and release the water sensor from the frame of the unit.

Options

Vari-Smart
Optional adjustable ice level control (KVS). When this option is present there is an adjustment post and
an additional indicator light to the right of the four
indicator lights mentioned earlier.
The ultrasonic ice level control allows the user to
control the point that the ice machine will stop making
ice before the bin or dispenser is full.
Reasons for this include:
• Seasonal changes in ice used
Use of adjustable ice level control
There are several positions the ice level can be set to,
including Off or Max (knob and label indicators lined
up), where it lls the bin until the standard bin control shuts the machine off. See the kit’s instructions for complete details.
• Planning to sanitize the bin
Faster turnover for fresher ice
• Certain dispenser applications where maximum ice
level is not desired
Rotate the adjustment post to the desired ice level.
The machine will ll up to that level and when it shuts off the indicator light next to the adjustment post will be On.
Note: The maximum ll position is when the arrow on the knob points to the arrow on the label.
Dispenser applications - Nugget ice only:
Set the adjustment knob arrow to the Norm area between the green arrows. Select either the rst or second positions as a starting point and adjust as needed.

What to do before calling for service

Normal Operation:
Ice
The machine will make either aked or nugget ice, depending upon the model. The ice will be produced continuously until the bin is full. It is normal for a few drops of water to occasionally fall with the ice.
Heat
On remote models most heat is exhausted at the remote condenser, the ice machine should not
generate signicant heat. Water cooled models
also put most of the heat from ice making into the
discharge water. Air cooled models will generate heat, and it will be discharged into the room.
Noise
The ice machine will make noise when it is in ice
making mode. The compressor and gear reducer will produce sound. Air cooled models will add fan noise. Some ice making noise could also occur. These noises are all normal for this machine.
Check the following:
1. Has the water supply to the ice machine or
building been shut off? If yes, the ice machine will
automatically restart within minutes after water begins
to ow to it.
2. Has power been shut off to the ice machine? If yes,
the ice machine will automatically restart when power
is restored.
3. Has someone shut the power off to the remote
condenser while the ice machine still had power? If yes, the ice machine may need to be manually reset.
To Manually Reset the machine.
• Open the switch door
• Push and release the Off button.
• Push and release the On button.
Open Switch Door
Reasons the machine might shut itself off:
• Lack of water.
• Does not make ice
• Auger motor overload
• High discharge pressure.
• Low refrigeration system pressure.
