C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Water 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. There are two ways water can contain impurities: in suspension or in solution. Suspended solids can be filtered out. In solution or dissolved solids cannot be filtered, they must be diluted or treated. Scotsman filters: A triple head filter is recommended.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Panel Removal 1. Locate and loosen the two screws at the front edge of the top panel. 2. Pull the front panel out at the top until it clears the top panel. 3. Lift the front panel up and off the machine. 4. Remove two screws from the front edge of the top panel. 5. Lift up the front of the top panel, push it back an inch, then lift to remove. 6. Locate and loosen the screw holding each side panel to the base. 7.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Remote Condenser Location Use the following for planning the placement of the condenser relative to the ice machine Location Limits - condenser location must not exceed ANY of the following limits: Configurations that do NOT meet these requirements must receive prior written authorization from Scotsman. Do NOT: • Maximum rise from the ice machine to the • Route a line set that rises, then falls, then condenser is 35 physical feet rises.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual For The Installer: Remote Condenser Locate the condenser as near as possible to the interior location of the ice machine. Note: The location of the condenser is relative to the ice machine is LIMITED by the specification on the prior page.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Precharged Line Routing Do not connect the precharged tubing until all routing and forming of the tubing is complete. See the Coupling Instructions for final connections. 1. Each set of pre-charged tubing lines contains a 3/8” diameter liquid line, and a 1/2” diameter discharge line. Both ends of each line have quick connect couplings, the end without access valves goes to the ice maker.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Coupling Instructions The couplings on the ends of the pre-charged line sets are self-sealing when installed properly. Follow these instructions carefully. 4b. Then using two wrenches tighten the coupling until it bottoms out or a definite increase in resistance is felt. These steps must be performed by an EPA Certified Type II or higher technician. Initial Connections 1. Remove the protector caps and plugs.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Plumbing Requirements All models require connection to cold, potable water. A hand actuated valve within site of the machine is required. There is a single 3/8” FPT inlet water connection, a 3/8” FPT to 3/8” male flare adapter is supplied with the machine and can be used if desired. Water Fitting Inlet Water Connection Water Filters Install a new cartridge if the filters were used with a prior machine.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Drains All models require drain tubing to be attached to them. There is a single ¾” FPT drain fitting in the back of the cabinet. Vent the reservoir drain. A vertical vent at the back of the drain, extended about 8 – 10” will allow the gravity drain to empty and also keep any surges during draining from discharging water.

C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Use and Operation Once started, the ice machine will automatically make ice until the bin or dispenser is full of ice. When ice level drops, the ice machine will resume making ice. There are four indicator lights at the front of the machine that provide information on the condition of the machine. Caution: Do not place anything on top of the ice machine, including the ice scoop.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Switches There's front access to two switches – on and off. Status Power De-Scale Water Adjustable ice level control When this option is present there is an adjustment post and an additional indicator light to the right of the four indicator lights mentioned above. They are all visible under the flip-up door.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Options and Other Information SmartBoard Ice When this option is present there is an additional display panel in the area below the main control board. It is not visible when the front panel is on. The SmartBoard’s features include: The cuber drops ice in large sections. That ice will break up into random parts as it falls into the bin, but some large sections may remain on top of the ice in the bin.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Cleaning, Sanitation and Maintenance This ice system requires three types of maintenance: • Remove the build up of mineral scale from the ice machine’s water system and sensors. • Sanitize the ice machine’s water system and the ice storage bin or dispenser. • Clean the remote condenser. It is the User’s responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition. Without human intervention, sanitation will not be maintained.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual 13. Remove water distributors from ice machine. Inspect distributors for restricted orifice holes, including those in the inner tube. Be sure all holes are full open. Squeeze Tabs Together, Slide Out Until it Stops, Then Lift to Remove 18.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual Remote condenser The condenser fins will need to be cleaned. Push and release the Off button. Wait until the machine stops. Note: Lock out the controller or the ice machine power supply to prevent an unauthorized fan motor restart. If there is imbedded grease, use a commercial coil cleaner to wash out the grease. Dust can be blown out with compressed air from the inside or use a vacuum cleaner and soft brush.
C1448, C1848, C2148 Remote Condenser Models - User Manual What to do before calling for service Reasons the machine might shut itself off: • • • • • • Lack of water. Freeze cycle takes too long. Harvest cycle takes too long. High discharge temperature. Controller self test failure. Very high voltage Check the following: 1. Has the water supply to the ice machine or building been shut off? If yes, the ice machine will automatically restart within 25 minutes after water begins to flow to it. 2.
