C. SUCTION LINE OIL TRAPS
!Caution
Do not form unwanted traps in refrigeration lines. Never coil excess refrigeration tubing.
0 to 20 feet (0 to 6.1 m) Rise: The ice machine head section has one oil trap built in which allows for a maximum condenser rise of 20 feet (6.1 m) without additional traps in the suction line.
21 to 35 feet (6.4 to 10.7 m) Rise: The suction line requires an additional Oil Trap (“S” type) to be installed. Install the trap as close as possible to midpoint between the ice machine head section and remote condensing unit.

Service Loop
A service loop in the line set permits easy access to the ice machine for cleaning and service.
•The supplied service loop is an installation requirement.
•A service loop is not considered an oil trap.
•The service loop is not included when calculating length, rise or drop of the tubing run.
•Do not use hard rigid copper for the service loop.
!Caution
If a line set has a rise followed by a drop, another rise cannot be made. Likewise, if a line set has a drop followed by a rise, another drop cannot be made.
Step 3 Lengthening or Reducing Line Set Lengths
!Caution
Do not form unwanted traps in refrigeration lines. Never coil excess refrigeration tubing.
When the line set required shortening or lengthening, do so before connecting the line set to the ice machine head section or the remote condensing unit.
