Water Limitations

An ice machine is a food manufacturing plant; it takes a raw material, water, and turns it into a food product, ice. The purity of the water is very important in obtaining pure ice and in maximizing product life.This section is not intended as a complete resource for water questions, but it does offer these general recommendations:

1. Filter the water used to produce ice.That is the water going to the “potable” water connection. Water filters vary greatly in ability and function. Install one that filters out suspended solids to a dimension of 5 microns or smaller.The finer the filter the better, but finer filters will clog sooner than course ones. It may be necessary to add a course filter ahead of the fine filter to prolong filter life.

2. Check with a water treatment specialist for a water test, and recommendations regarding filters and treatment.

FOR THE INSTALLER

Location

After uncrating and inspection, the unit is ready for installation. It is important that the machine be installed in a location where it has enough space above and behind it for service. Air cooled models require a minimum of 6 inches to the left and right of the machine for air circulation.

Machine Stand Installation

Tip the stand on its back and install the legs, return the stand to the upright position. Adjust leg levelers so that the stand does not “rock”.

Counter Top or Machine Stand Installation

The base of the icemaker-dispenser must be sealed to the object it rests upon. Food grade silastic sealant such as Scotsman part number 19-0529-01 is recommended.

Place a bead of the sealant on the machine stand or counter top to match the outside edge of the cabinet base and sink.

The icemaker-dispenser is heavy: use of a mechanical hoist is recommended to lift it to the height required to install it.

The DMS machine stand has holes in the top that match up with threaded holes in the icemaker-dispenser.Place the cabinet onto the machine stand, so that the unit is lined up with the holes.Secure the ice maker-dispenser to the machine stand with bolts and washers.

In both counter top and machine stand installations, wipe off and neatly smooth any excess sealant.Level the machine stand and cabinet.

Unpack and install the sink brackets.Fit the sink assembly onto the two sink brackets, and press onto the bead of sealant. Wipe off and neatly smooth any excess sealant from under the sink edge.

Unpack and install the ice and water spouts. Ice Spout: Slide up and over ice outlet.No

fastener is required to hold it in place. Water Spout: Slide over stainless steel water

discharge tube, locate and match up with notches in the base. Rotate clockwise to move spout into installed position.

FOR THE INSTALLER: Wall Mount Kit

/////////////////////////////CAUTION/////////////////////////////////// It is recommended that the wall mounting

installation be done by an experienced contractor. The weight of the machine when in use may exceed 350 pounds.The unit should be mounted on a solid, rigid wall with proper fasteners for that type of wall and of adequate strength to support the weight of the machine when in use.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Clearance between the wall and the icemaker is a

maximum of 1 inch. Check utility connections first. The electrical junction box will have to be removed, and the electrical connections made inside the cabinet in compliance with local codes. The plumbing connections may be made through the base, or at either side through the pre-punched holes, using standard plumbing practices.

Interior plumbing lines must be disconnected from the original connections and plugged when routing through the side or base.

1. Remove machine top. Attach bracket “A” to machine using (3) nuts, (3) flat washers, (3) lock washers, and (3) 5/16-18 bolts received with the kit.

FOR THE PLUMBER

CONFORM TO ALL APPLICABLE CODES

Water Inlet

Air Cooled Models: The recommended water

supply is clean, cold water.Use 3/8" O.D. copper tubing, connect to the 3/8" male flare at the back of the cabinet. Install a hand valve near the machine to control the water supply.

WaterTreatment: In most areas, a water filter of some type will be useful. In areas where the water is highly concentrated with minerals the water should be tested by a water treatment specialist, and the recommendations of the specialist regarding filtration and/or treatment should be followed.

Water Cooled Models: A separate 3/8" O.D. copper line is recommended, with a separate hand valve to control it.It is connected to a 3/8" FPT condenser inlet at the back of the cabinet. The water pressure to all lines must always be above 20 psig, and below 80 psig.

FILTER

Drains

Air Cooled Models: There is one 3/4" FPT drain

at the back of the cabinet, the drain line is of the gravity type, and 1/4 inch per foot fall is an acceptable pitch for the drain tubing. There should be a vent at the highest point of the drain line, and the ideal drain receptacle would be a trapped and vented floor drain. Use only 3/4" rigid tubing.

Water Cooled Models:In addition to the above mentioned drain, a separate condenser drain must be installed. Connect it to the 1/2" condenser drain connection at the back of the cabinet.

FOR THE ELECTRICIAN

CONFORM TO ALL APPLICABLE CODES

The electrical power to the unit is supplied through the junction box at the rear of the machine.

Check the nameplate (located on the back panel) for the voltage requirements, and for the minimum circuit ampacity. The machine requires a solid chassis to earth ground wire.

The ice maker should be connected to its own electrical circuit so it would be individually fused.Voltagevariation must remain within design limitations, even under starting conditions.

All external wiring must conform to national, state, and local electrical codes. The use of a licensed electrician is required to perform the electrical installation.

INITIAL START UP

Pre Start Inspection

1. Remove the two front panels.

2. Check that all shipping blocks have been removed.

3. Remove any and all packing tape (check inside the storage bin).

Start Up

1. Go through the pre start inspection.

2. Open the water hand valve, observe that water enters the water reservoir, fills the tube from the reservoir to the evaporator and then shuts off. Check for leaks.

3. Switch the master switch on. The electrical start up sequence is now on automatic; there will be a short (15 second) delay before the machine starts.

4. On air cooled models, warm air will begin to flow from the condenser.Water cooled models will begin to discharge warm water down the drain.

TDE550 & TDE650

4. Inspect the interior of the machine for loose screws or wires.Check that no refrigerant lines are rubbing each other. Check that the fan blade on air cooled models turns freely.

5. Check that the machine is installed correctly according to the final check list.

6. There are no adjustments to make, so replace the panels.

7. Check ice dispensing by holding a container in front of the Touch Free ice sensor (just below the ice delivery spout). Ice should flow from the spout when a container is present, and stop dispensing when the container is removed.

8. Switch off the icemaker-dispenser, remove the top panel and the top of the ice storage bin. Sanitize the interior of the ice storage bin by wiping it with a mixture of 1 ounce of household bleach to 2 gallons of water, allow to air dry. Replace all covers and panels.Switch the icemaker-dispenser back on.

5. The unit should soon be making ice. If desired, the low side pressure may be checked:it should be 38 PSIG + or - 2 PSIG.

The air cooled discharge pressure will depend upon air and water temperatures, but should be between 240 PSIG and 340 PSIG.

Water cooled discharge pressure should be about 245 PSIG. If needed, adjust the water regulating valve.

The above numbers are for new, clean machines. Field values may be somewhat higher or lower.

9. Give the owner/user the service manual, instruct him/her in the operation and maintenance requirements of the unit. Make sure they know who to call for service.

10. Fill out the Customer Evaluation and Warranty Registration form, and mail it in to Scotsman.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

High Pressure Cut Out Switch: A manual reset switch sensing the high side refrigeration pressure. It is set to shut the machine off if the discharge pressure should ever exceed 450 psig.

Evaporator: A vertical stainless steel tube, refrigerated, and water filled. In it there is a stainless steel auger.

Reservoir: Float operated, it maintains the water level in the evaporator at a constant level, it also contains the water level sensor.

Water Level Sensor: Senses if there is water in the reservoir to make ice out of. Will shut the machine off it there is none.

Ice Level Sensor: An electronic “eye”, it senses the presence of ice in the bottom of the ice discharge chute. Operates to turn the ice machine on and off automatically as the level of ice in the bin changes.

DrainTube: When uncapped and lowered, drains the evaporator.

Condenser: Air or water cooled, where the heat removed in ice making is discharged. Ice Storage Bin Assembly: A plastic lined, insulated cylinder that receives, stores and dispenses the ice. Fresh ice enters at the top, and when the bin is full enough the ice will be between the ice level sensors, and the ice making will stop. Ice is dispensed through a chute at the bottom front when the bin vane sweeps the ice over the chute.
