SUPPLY AND DRAINS
Potable Water Supply
Local water conditions may require treatment of the
water to inhibit scale formation, filter sediment, and
remove chlorine odor and taste.
Potable Water Inlet Lines
Follow these guidelines to install water inlet lines:
Do not connect the ice machine to a hot water
supply. Be sure all hot water restrictors installed for
other equipment are working. (Check valves on sink
faucets, dishwashers, etc.)
If water pressure exceeds the maximum
recommended pressure obtain a water pressure
regulator from your Manitowoc Distributor.
Float Valve - 80 psi (551.5 kPa)
Water Inlet Valve - 90 psi (620.4 kPA)
Install a water shut-off valve for ice making potable
water.
Insulate water inlet lines to prevent condensation.
If you are installing a Manitowoc water filter system,
refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with the
filter system for ice making water inlet connections.
