REFRIGERANT CHARGE
The Copeland condensing unit ships from the
factory with a refrigerant charge appropriate for
installation with three ice machines, and line sets of
up to 50' (15.25 m) per ice machine.
The model/serial nameplate on the ice machine
indicates the refrigerant type.
Additional refrigerant is required for installations
using four ice machines.
The receiver is designed to hold a charge sufficient
to operate the ice machine in ambient temperatures
between -20
°
F (-28.9
°
C) and 120
°
F (54.4
°
C), with
line set lengths of up to 50' per ice machine.
FOUR ICE MACHINE INSTALLATIONS
When connecting a fourth ice machine:
•
Refrigeration systems and compressors with
POE oil must not be left open to the atmosphere
for more than 15 minutes. Open system just
prior to brazing and be prepared to hook up a
vacuum pump immediately after brazing.
•
Recover the refrigerant charge in the condensing
unit.
•
Braze tubing for the additional ice machine to
the manifold assembly.
•
Replace the condensing unit line drier.
•
Perform a leak test, evacuate system to 250
microns, and weigh in the correct refrigerant
charge.

the aeroquip fitting is not designed for
extended use at high system pressures,
and could result in a refrigerant Leak.
