water, drain and electrical connections in the rear
of the ice machine.
• The location must not obstruct airflow through or
around the ice machine.

POTABLE WATER REQUIREMENTS
• Plumbing must conform to local codes
• 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 maximum pressure (6
bar) obtain a water pressure regulator from your
Manitowoc distributor.
• A union for both the ice making and condenser
water lines is required
• Water inlet lines require insulation to prevent
condensation.
DRAIN CONNECTIONS
• Drain lines must have a 1.5 inch drop per 5 feet of
run (2.5 cm per meter), and must not create traps
• The floor drain must be large enough to
accommodate drainage from all drains.
• Separate insulated bin and water-cooled
condenser drain lines are required
• The bin and ice machine drains require a vent.

ELECTRICAL SERVICE
Voltage
The maximum allowable voltage variation is ± 10% of
the rated voltage on the ice machine model/serial
number plate at compressor start-up.
Fuse/Circuit Breaker
A separate fuse/circuit breaker must be provided for
each ice machine.
Ground Fault Interrupter Circuit (GFIC)
