Step 1
To achieve maximum efficiency, the correct placement of the IceZone is very important.
It is recommended that it be mounted on top of the ice-machine.
The optimal place to introduce the plasma depends on the make and model of the ice-machine.
This manual describes the installation for Auger Evaporator style ice machines only. Ice
machines that fit this category are listed in Appendix A. Please request an Ice machine
specific manual if you are installing IceZone on another type of ice machine. These machine
specific instructions are also available on our website:
Before installation, make sure that the power cord is within easy reach of a power
outlet.
To prevent contamination of the ice in the ice machine, it is recommended to remove the ice
from the bin area while doing the installation of the IceZone.
ATTENTION: Do not connect the power adapter to the mains supply at this stage!
Step 2
Remove the ice machine front and top cover. It is recommended to remove the Ice Chute to
allow easier access for installation. Use manufacturer’s service instructions to remove the ice
chute.
Typically the IceZone Plasma Outlet Tube is directed towards the ice chute and ice bin on auger
style ice machines. Locate the place where a 15/16” (23mm) hole will pass through the ice
chute wall near the top and a location for a second 15/16” (23mm) port near the bottom of the
ice chute as shown in Figure A.
Drill the 15/16” (23mm) holes for the bulkhead fittings.
Install the bulkhead fittings according to Figure B.
Clean the drilling debris from the ice bin and evaporator area.
Step3
Drill 1.25” ports in the ice machine cover to allow the tubing to pass through the cover and
connect to the bulkhead fittings. See Figure C.
Install the rubber grommets to protect the tubing. See Figure D.
Step 4
Choose to mount the IceZone on the wall adjacent to the ice machine or on top of the ice
machine.
For Ice Machine top Mounting: Mark the location on the ice machine top cover for the 7/32”
(5.5mm) holes for the IceZone plastic mounting rivets. Use the included paper template to
place the IceZone where the mounting holes and fasteners will not interfere with Ice Machine
components.
Remove the cover from the ice machine and drill the 7/32“ (5.5mm) holes to mount the
IceZone. See Figure E.
Alternative – Wall Mounting: Mount the IceZone on a wall adjacent to the ice machine using
the included wall anchors and #8 Screws.
