Important

Manitowoc remote systems are only approved and warranted as a complete new package. Warranty on the refrigeration system will be void if a new ice machine head section is connected to pre-existing (used) tubing or condensing units or vice versa.

USAGE WITH NON-MANITOWOC

CONDENSING UNITS

Manitowoc Remote Condensing Units are specifically designed for usage with a QuietQube® Ice Machine Head Section. Standard condensing units and Non- Manitowoc condensing units are not approved for use with a QuietQube® Ice Machine Head Section.

!Caution

The 60-month compressor warranty (including the 24- month labor replacement warranty) will not apply if the Manitowoc Ice Machine and Manitowoc Remote Condensing Unit are not installed according to specifications. This warranty also will not apply if the refrigeration system is modified with a condenser, heat reclaim device, or other parts or assemblies not manufactured by Manitowoc Ice.

Factory Equipment Refrigeration Amounts

ICE MACHINE HEAD SECTION

Each ice machine condensing unit ships from the factory with a R-404A refrigerant charge appropriate for the entire system operation. The serial tag on the ice machine indicates the refrigerant charge. The refrigerant charge is sufficient to operate the ice machine in ambient temperatures between -20°F (-28.9°C) and 120°F (48.9°C). With line set lengths of up to 100 feet (30.5 m).

!Warning

Potential Personal Injury Situation

The QuietQube Condensing Unit contains the refrigerant charge. Installation and brazing of the line sets must be performed by a properly trained and EPA certified refrigeration technician aware of the dangers of dealing with refrigerant charged equipment.

!Caution

Never add more than nameplate charge to the refrigeration system for any application.

REFRIGERATION LINE SETS/TRAP KIT

Refrigeration Rated Tubing and Trap Kits are shipped capped with atmospheric pressure.

!Warning

Installation of a QuietQube® Condensing Unit may require the use of special equipment for placement. Trained and qualified personnel are required for proper rigging and lifting.
