Condenser water supply inlet is 1/2" female pipe thread (FPT). A minimum of 3/8" OD copper tubing is recommended for the condenser water supply line.

Condenser return outlet is 3/8" FPT. A minimum of 3/8" OD hard pipe is recommended for the condenser return line.

Shut-off valves and drain valves should be installed at both the condenser water supply inlet and condenser return outlet.

The water supply to the condenser should not drop below 4 GPM.

The pressure differential between the condenser water supply inlet and condenser return outlet must be no less than 10 PSIG.

When using a glycol blend, the solution mixture should be less than 30% glycol.

In order to maintain the proper high side pressure, the condenser water supply inlet temperature should not drop below 45°F (7°C) and the condenser return outlet temperature must be in the 104°F to 115°F (40°C to 46°C) range. Once the icemaker installation is complete, confirm the condenser return outlet temperature 5 minutes after a freeze cycle starts. If the outlet temperature is not in the proper range, adjust the water‑regulating valve to bring it into range.
