CALCULATING REMOTE CONDENSER
INSTALLATION DISTANCES
Line Set Length
The maximum length is 100' (30.5 m).
The ice machine compressor must have the proper oil return. The receiver is designed to hold a charge sufficient to operate the ice machine in ambient temperatures between
Line Set Rise/Drop
The maximum rise is 35' (10.7 m).
The maximum drop is 15' (4.5 m).
!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.
Calculated Line Set Distance
The maximum calculated distance is 150' (45.7 m).
Line set rises, drops, horizontal runs (or combinations of these) in excess of the stated maximums will exceed compressor
Make the following calculations to make sure the line set layout is within specifications.
1.Insert the measured rise into the formula below. Multiply by 1.7 to get the calculated rise. (Example: A condenser located 10 feet above the ice machine has a calculated rise of 17 feet.)
2.Insert the measured drop into the formula below. Multiply by 6.6 to get the calculated drop. (Example. A condenser located 10 feet below the ice machine has a calculated drop of 66 feet.)
3.Insert the measured horizontal distance into the formula below. No calculation is necessary.
4.Add together the calculated rise, calculated drop, and horizontal distance to get the total calculated distance. If this total exceeds 150' (45.7 m), move the condenser to a new location and perform the calculations again.
