Installation Instructions

INSTALLING THE WATER LINE (CONT.)

9CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE REFRIGERATOR

NOTES:

Before making the connection to the refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.

If your refrigerator does not have a water filter, we recommend installing one if your water supply has sand or particles that could clog the screen of the refrigerator’s water valve. Install it in the water line near the refrigerator. If using a GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing kit, you will need an additional tube (WX08X10002)

to connect the filter. Do not cut plastic tube to install filter.

Some models have the refrigerator connection at the end of tubing located outside the compressor compartment access cover. On other models, the compressor compartment access cover must be removed in order to access the refrigerator connection at the water valve.

On models using the refrigeration connection at the water valve, remove the plastic flexible cap.

Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the end of the tubing as shown. On a GE SmartConnect Refrigerator Tubing kit, the nuts are already assembled to the tubing.

9CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE REFRIGERATOR (CONT.)

Insert the end of the tubing into the refrigerator connection as far as possible. While holding the tubing, tighten the fitting.

For plastic tubing from a GE SmartConnect Refrigerator Tubing kit, insert the molded end of the tubing into the refrigerator connection and tighten the compression nut until it is hand tight, then tighten one additional turn with a wrench. Overtightening may cause leaks.

Fasten the tubing into the clamp provided as shown to keep it in position. You may need to pry open the clamp.

One of the illustrations below will look like the connection on your refrigerator.

25 specifications

The GE 25, officially known as the General Electric 25 (GE 25), is a revolutionary advanced gas turbine designed to enhance the efficiency and productivity of power generation. This cutting-edge turbine is engineered with an eye towards meeting the evolving demands of the energy market while ensuring environmental sustainability.

One of the primary features of the GE 25 is its highly efficient combustion process. Utilizing advanced combustion technology, the turbine achieves lower emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) while maintaining a high power output. The GE 25 is designed for use in both simple cycle and combined cycle power plants, making it a versatile choice for various energy generation applications. The turbine's ability to transition seamlessly between these cycles allows operators to optimize energy production based on demand.

The GE 25 is built with advanced materials that enhance durability and performance. The components are constructed from high-temperature alloys that withstand extreme operating conditions, thus ensuring longevity and lower maintenance costs. This durability is crucial as it minimizes downtime and maximizes productivity in power generation facilities.

Innovative technologies incorporated into the GE 25 include advanced aerodynamics and an intelligent control system. The turbine features an optimized blade design that improves airflow efficiency and reduces drag, resulting in higher overall performance. Additionally, the intelligent control system offers real-time monitoring and analysis, enabling predictive maintenance and ensuring that the turbine operates at peak efficiency.

The turbine's modular design simplifies installation and maintenance processes. This allows for faster commissioning times and enhances operational flexibility, making it a preferred choice for both new installations and retrofitting older plants. The GE 25 is also compatible with a wide range of fuel types, including natural gas, biogas, and even hydrogen blends, which aligns with the industry's shift towards more sustainable energy sources.

In summary, the GE 25 stands out as a powerhouse in the gas turbine industry, with its cutting-edge features, advanced technologies, and robust characteristics. By prioritizing efficiency, durability, and flexibility, the GE 25 meets the current and future energy needs while contributing to a greener planet. As the demand for reliable and sustainable energy sources continues to grow, the GE 25 will play a vital role in shaping the future of power generation.
