GENERAL INFORMATION
AND INSTALLATION
A.
INTRODUCTION
This manual provides the specifications and the
step-by-step procedures for the installation, start-
up and operation, maintenance and cleaning for
the SIMAG SDN Series Icemakers.
The SIMAG SDN cubers are quality designed,
engineered and manufactured.
Their ice making systems are thoroughly tested
providing the utmost in flexibility to fit the needs
of a particular user.
NOTE. To retain the safety and performance
built into this icemaker, it is important that
installation and maintenance be conducted
in the manner outlined in this manual.
B.
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
1.
Call your authorized SIMAG Distributor or
Dealer for proper installation.
2.
Visually inspect the exterior of the packing
and skid. Any severe damage noted should be
reported to the delivering carrier and a concealed
damage claim form filled in subjet to inspection of
the contents with the carrier’s representative
present.
3.
a) Cut and remove the plastic strip securing
the carton box to the skid.
b) Remove the packing nails securing the
carton box to the skid.
c) Cut open the top of the carton and remove
the polystyre protection sheet.
d) Pull out the polystyre posts from the
corners and then remove the carton.
4.
Remove the front and the rear panels of the
unit and inspect for any concealed damage.
Notify carrier of your claim for the concealed
damage as stated in step 2 above.
5.
Remove all internal support packing and
masking tape.
6.
Check that refrigerant lines do not rub
against or touch other lines or surfaces, and that
the fan blades move freely.
7.
Check that the compressor fits snugly onto
all its mounting pads.
8.
See data plate on the rear side of the unit
and check that local main voltage corresponds
with the voltage specified on it.
CAUTION. Incorrect voltage supplied to
the icemaker will void your parts
replacement program.
9.
Remove the manufacturer’s registration
card from the inside of the User Manual and fill-
in all parts including: Model and Serial Number
taken from the data plate.
Forward the completed self-addressed
registration card to SIMAG factory.
C.
LOCATION AND LEVELLING
WARNING. This Ice Maker is designed for
indoor installation only. Extended periods
of operation at temperature exceeding
the following limitations will constitute
misuse under the terms of the SIMAG
Manufacturer’s Limited Warranty resulting
in LOSS of warranty coverage.
1.
Position the machine bin in the selected
permanent location and tighten the four legs
(SDN 35 - 45 - 65 - SD 80 - 125 - 210).
Criteria for selection of location include:
a) Minimum room temperature 10
°
C (50
°
F)
and maximum room temperature 40
°
C (100
°
F).
b) Water inlet temperatures: minimum 5
°
C
(40
°
F) and maximum 40
°
C (100
°
F).
c) Well ventilated location for air cooled
models (clean the air cooled condenser at
frequent intervals).
d) Service access: adequate space must be
left for all service connections through the rear of
the ice maker. A minimum clearance of 15 cm
(6") must be left at the sides of the unit for routing
cooling air drawn into and exhausted out of the
compartment to maintain proper condensing
operation of air cooled models.
NOTE. With the unit in “built-in” conditions,
the ice production is gradually reduced in
respect to the levels shown in the graph, up
to a maximum of 10% at room temperatures
higher than 32
°
C.
The daily ice-making capacity is directly
related to the condenser air inlet temperatu-
re, water temperature and age of the machine.
To keep your SIMAG CUBER at peak perfor-
mance levels, periodic maintenance checks
must be carried out as indicated on this
manual.
2.
Level the Icemaker in both the left to right
and front to rear directions by means of the
adjustable legs.
D.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
See data plate for current requirements to
determine wire size to be used for electrical
connections. All SIMAG icemakers require a
solid earth wire.
All SIMAG ice machines are supplied from the
factory completely pre-wired and require only
electrical power connections to the wire cord
provided at the rear of the unit.
