2.5.- WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine will have an impact on the time between
cleanings and ultimately on the life of the product (mainly in water cooled units). It also will have
a remarkable influence on the appearance, hardness and flavor of the ice.
Local water conditions may require treatment of the water to inhibit scale formation, improve taste
and clarity. If you are installing a water filter system, refer to the installation instructions supplied
with the filter system.
Pressure should be between 0.1 and 0.6 MPa (1 - 6 bar). If pressure overpasses such values,
install a pressure regulator.
The water connection needs to be dedicated (only piece of equipment hooked to the water line).
Water line from the water valve to the ice machine needs to be ¼” nominal ID tubing.
ATTENTION:
The machine shall be plumbed (with adequate backflow protection) according to
applicable national and local regulations.
2.6.-DRAIN CONNECTION
Drainage should be located lower to the machine level, at 150mm minimum.
It is convenient that the drain hose is 30mm inside diameter and with a minimum gradient of
3cm/metre, see figure.
