Water Supply And Drain Connections - Hoshizaki KM-40C-HC Manual De Instrucciones

ENGLISH

7. WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN CONNECTIONS

* The connections to the mains water supply must be made in accordance with the countries' current requirements of the Water
Supply or Water Fittings Regulations.
* Icemaking water must be potable water. Where scaling can be caused by water quality, installation of an external filter or
softener is recommended. Contact your local water treatment professional or Hoshizaki service agent.
* Water supply pressure should be minimum 0.07 MPa (0.7 bar) and maximum 0.8 MPa (8 bar). If the pressure exceeds 0.8
MPa (8 bar), use a proper pressure reducing valve. Do NOT throttle back the supply tap.
* A plumbing permit and services of a licensed plumber may be required in some areas.
* The icemaker drain is gravity flow, so ensure drain hose has an adequate pitch or fall.
* Drain lines should not be installed directly to the sewer system. A vertical air gap of a minimum of 5
cm should be between the end of the drain hoses from the icemaker and the floor drain.
* To prevent a backflow into the storage bin, the outlet hose must be laid as shown.

leak free joint. It is a wise precaution to have a stop valve within easy reach.
2) The outlet hose can be cut to length as necessary to suit position of main drain.
