Scotsman SLC300 - Manual (Page 8)

Installation
For The Plumber
Supply:
Screw the 3/8" male flare (fitting shipped in
package inside cabinet) into the 1/4" FPT fitting at
the back of the cabinet (thread tape
recommended). Connect cold potable water to the
water inlet. A hand shut off valve for inlet water
should be installed near the machine. A water filter
is recommended. Flush the water line prior to
connecting to the ice machine.
If water cooled, connect a separate water inlet line
to the water cooled condenser inlet fitting. It should
also have a hand shut off valve.
Drains:
Connect a drain tube to the reservoir drain fitting at
the back of the cabinet. The drain tube from the
fitting must be run separately from any other drain
tube. The reservoir drain is a 3/4" F.P.T. brass
fitting.
Drain tube material must be rigid and meet local
code.
Traps in the bin drain line without vents ahead of
them will cause poor draining.
The bin drain must be vented if there is a long
horizontal run (5’ or more). The reservoir drain
must be vented and not connected to the bin
drain. All drains are gravity, and must have a
minimum fall of 1/4" per foot of horizontal run.
Water Cooled: The water cooled condenser drain
is not vented, and is routed separately.
Maintain the air gap required by local code
between the end of the drain tubes and the
building drain receptacle.
Note: Drain tubing should be insulated to prevent
condensation from forming on the tubing.
