REFRIGERATION SYSTEM SCHEMATIC
6.1 Refrigeration During Freeze
This ice machine employs either air or water as a condensing media, the refrigeration system for either is as follows:
At the hermetic compressor, Refrigerant is compressed into a high temperature, high pressure gas.
This gas contains the heat removed from the evaporator, as well as compressor motor heat. The gas moves through the discharge line
into the condenser, air or water-cooled. If air-cooled, the discharge pressure will change with the heat load and the ambient air temperature.
If water-cooled, the discharge pressure is controlled by the amount of water flowing through the condenser - which is determined by the
water regulating valve.
After the gas is cooled in the condenser, giving up much of its heat, the gas condenses into a high pressure liquid. This liquid travels through
the liquid line to the metering device, a thermostatic expansion valve.
Check operation of the freezing cycle:
a) Compressor is operating.
b) Water pump is operating as seen by water moving through the tygon tube up to
the water distributor at the top of evaporator plate, where water is uniformly
dispensed and cascades down over the egg-crate evaporator and drains back
into the Sump Assembly for recirculation.
4. Remove the evaporator deflector cover temporarily and feel inside the ice cube mould of the egg-crate evaporator, this should feel cold
to the touch, shortly after ice will begin to form.
First freezing cycle will range between 20 and 25 minutes. Longer for temperature above 25°C and shorter when temperature is below 25°C
Average complete cycle time is about 25 minutes.
5. Make sure of correct operation of float valve and water pump.
6. Check for any irregular noise source and if any, eliminate it.
7. Replace plastic cover deflector before harvest cycle.
8. Observe first ice cube harvest.
a) Check operation of N.C. microswitch/magnetic switch on models controlling the
ice maker operation by keeping open the bottom end of the plastic deflector for
more than 30 seconds.
b) Check size of ice cubes; if an adjustment is required thread down or out screw
N. 1 as shown in the illustration.
This screw position determines the distance between the sensor reeds and the
egg-crate evaporator thus keeping the ice cube at a proper thickness.
9. Observe second and third cube harvest.
Check if size and shape combination is correct.
In areas where extreme water problem conditions exist, filtering or purifying equipment
is recommended.
NOTE: If water used is too soft, ‘demineralised’ the ice thickness sensor might
not be able to sense the water on its reeds, thereby it will not switch the unit on
harvest cycle.
A safety system built in the E.C. board switches the unit on harvest cycle whenever
the freezing period gets longer than 40min.
10. Replace all cabinet panels and screws previously removed.
11. Thoroughly explain to owner/user the significant specifications of the ice maker start-up, reset and operation, going through the procedures
in the operating instructions.
Answer all questions about the ice maker by the owner and inform the owner himself of the name and telephone number of the
authorised service agency serving him.
