Universal Thermostat Kit
Installation Instructions
FOR USE WITH DISPENSERS ONLY
THIS CONTROL KIT IS INTENDED TO REDUCE OVERFILL AND CONDENSATION ISSUES
1.Remove all ice from dispenser.
2.Disconnect all power to the ice machine and dispenser at the service disconnect or fuse/breaker panel.
3.Move the ice machine and dispenser away from the wall for easier access.
4.Remove all panels and control box cover.
5.If an ice machine is already installed on the dispenser, raise and support the right side of the ice machine. Install the mounting bracket on the
6.Route thermistor wire out back of the ice machine/dispenser (lower the ice machine, if supported). Remove unused knockout on the ice machine back panel, install romex connector and route wire into the ice machine compressor compartment.
7.Normally the controller can be mounted on the bulkhead flange. If not, a suitable area must be found for your model. Use controller bracket to locate mounting holes on the flange of the bulkhead. Drill two 9/32" diameter holes (used to mount the controller bracket - see View A). Do not mount the controller, at this time.
8.Route the four wires from the temperature control to the control box (insuring that the wires will not come in contact with any refrigeration tubing).
IMPORTANT:
The thermostat must be wired to match the voltage of the ice machine. The thermostat is
240 volts.
9.The control box line voltage wiring offers two options: ∙ Connect thermostat L1 (brown) and L2 (blue) wires to contactor (incoming line voltage side) L1 and L2.
OR
∙Disconnect incoming power line wire nuts. Remove
