Remote Condenser Models - User Manual
Installation: Product Specifications
Location Limitations
This ice system is made up of three parts, the ice
making machine, or head; the remote condenser;
and the interconnecting tubing. The ice making
machine must be installed indoors, in a controlled
environment. Space must be provided near the
machine for service access. The remote condenser
may be installed above or below the ice machine,
per the limits stated later in this manual. The
remote condenser may be installed outdoors within
the temperature limits listed below. The
interconnecting tubing must be installed per the
directions stated in this manual, and the amount of
tubing exposed to uncontrolled temperatures must
be minimized.
Space Limitations
Although the machine will function with no
clearance to the top and sides, some space must
be allowed for service access. Building the
machine in with no access will cause higher service
cost, in many cases this extra cost may not be
covered by warranty.

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 and workmanship. It does not
cover maintenance, corrections to installations, or
situations when the ice machine is operated in
circumstances that exceed the limitations printed
above.
Product Information
The machine is a specialized version of a modular
cuber. A modular cuber does not include any ice
storage, it is designed to be placed onto an ice
storage bin. Many installations only require the
matching bin, but some may need an adapter to be
placed between the ice machine and the bin.
Additionally, the machine must be connected to the
correct remote condenser and use the correct
pre-charged tubing. The machine is supplied with a
full refrigerant charge, field charging is not
required.
This product cannot be stacked. See the chart for
application information.

Precharged tubing kits:
The ice making head’s and the remote condenser’s
refrigeration circuits must be connected. They are
designed to be connected using precharged
refrigerant tubing, supplied in kits of liquid and
discharge tubes. Several lengths are available,
order the one that just exceeds the length needed
for the site.

Water
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. There are
two ways water can contain impurities: in
suspension or in solution. Suspended solids can be
filtered out. In solution or dissolved solids cannot
be filtered, they must be diluted or treated.
Scotsman filters:
A triple head filter is recommended. Either the
Scotsman SSM3 taste and odor filter system, or
the ADS-AP3 AquaPatrol system.
Water filters are recommended to remove
suspended solids. Some filters have treatment in
them for suspended 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.
Water Purge
Cube ice machines use more water than what ends
up in the bin as ice. While most water is used
during ice making, a portion is designed to be
drained out every cycle to reduce the amount of
hard water scale in the machine. That’s known as
water purge, and an effective purge can increase
the time between needed water system cleaning.
In addition, this product is designed to
automatically vary the amount of water purged
based on the purity of the water supplied to it. The
water purge rate can also be set manually.
Adjustments of purge due to local water conditions
are not covered by warranty.
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 filters remove chlorine from the water
supply to the machine which contributes to this
situation. Testing has shown that using a filter that
does not remove chlorine, such as the Scotsman
Aqua Patrol, will greatly improve this situation,
while the ice making process itself will remove the
chlorine from the ice, resulting in no taste or odor
impact. Additionally, devices intended to enhance
ice machine sanitation, such as the Scotsman
Aqua Bullet, can be placed in the machine to keep
it cleaner between manual cleanings.

1. Locate and loosen the two screws at the front
edge of the top panel.
2. Pull the front panel out at the top until it
clears the top panel.
3. Lift the front panel up and off the machine.
4. Remove two screws from the front edge of
the top panel.
5. Lift up the front of the top panel, push it back
an inch, then lift to remove.
6. Locate and loosen the screw holding each
side panel to the base.
7. Pull the side panel forward to release it from
the back panel.
This manual covers several models of remote
cubers. The model number on the ice machine can
be found either on the dataplate, which is on the
back panel, or the serial number tag, which is
behind the front panel. See the illustration for the
locations of the dataplate and the serial number
tag.
The remote condenser has a separate model and
serial number. Its model and serial number is on
the dataplate on the condenser near the quick
connect fittings.

Panel Removal
Uncrate and Set Up
Begin with the ice storage bin. Remove the carton,
and, using part of the carton as a cushion, tip the
bin on its back to remove the skid. Attach the
supplied legs or optional casters. Return the bin to
a normal, upright position.
Check the bin top gasket for tears or gaps. If
recycling an older bin, replace the gasket or repair
with food grade sealant prior to placing the ice
machine on the bin.
Install the bin top adapter or ice dispenser adapter,
if one is required for the application.
If the ice machine has not been unpacked, do so
now. Remove the carton from the skid. Cut away
any shipping strapping. Lift the ice machine off the
skid directly onto the bin.
Note: The machine is heavy. Use a mechanical lift
if necessary.
Secure the ice machine to the bin with the
hardware provided (two metal straps and four
bolts).
