Cooling Tower Applications
(Water-Cooled Models Only)
A water cooling tower installation does not require
modification of the ice machine. The water regulator
valve for the condenser continues to control the
refrigeration discharge pressure.
It is necessary to know the amount of heat rejection,
and pressure drop through the condenser and water
valves (inlet and outlet) when using a cooling tower on
an ice machine.
• Water entering the condenser must not be lower
than 37°F (3°C) or exceed 90°F (32°C).
• Water flow through the condenser must not
exceed 5 gal. (19 L) per minute.
• Allow for a pressure drop of 7 psi (48 kPa)
between the condenser water inlet and the outlet
of the ice machine.
• Water exiting the condenser must not exceed
110°F (43°C).
