WATER AND REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT

AM-150BAF 9.5oz R-404a

Low side process tube

High side process tube

Note: All Hoshizaki ice machines are critically charged. Since the AM -series have small refrigeration circuits this is especially true. The AM-series does not come from the factory with any type of refrigeration system access. In the event that the system must be accessed for troubleshooting it will be necessary to install piercing type “saddle valve” on the system. These valves should only be installed on the process tubes provided on the low side and high side of the system. After the repair has been made to the unit, sweat type schraders should be installed in place of the piercing valves.

Again, these units are critical charged. Every precaution should be taken to insure that the exact charge of R134a for the AM-50 and AM-100 and R-404a for the AM-150is weighed into the system. Due to the very small charge of these units, extra care must be taken to avoid any refrigerant loss when removing gauges.
