soft cloth. Do not bend the fan blades. If the fan
blades are excessively dirty, wash with warm, soapy
water and rinse thoroughly.
Water-Cooled Condenser
and Water Regulating Valve
Symptoms of restrictions in the condenser water circuit
include:
Low ice production
High water consumption
High operating temperatures
High operating pressures
If the ice machine is experiencing any of these symptoms,
the water-cooled condenser and water regulating valve
may require cleaning due to scale build-up.
Because the cleaning procedures require special pumps
and cleaning solutions, qualified maintenance or service
personnel must perform them.
AlphaSan
The goal of AlphaSan
is to keep the plastic surfaces of
an ice machine cleaner, by reducing or delaying the
formation of bio-film. The active ingredient in
AlphaSan
is the element silver in the form of silver ions
(Ag+). AlphaSan
slowly releases silver ions via an ion
exchange mechanism. When AlphaSan
is
compounded directly into a plastic part, a controlled
release of silver ions from the surface is regulated to
maintain an effective concentration at or near the
surface of the plastic ice machine part. AlphaSan’s
unique ability to effectively control the release of silver
not only protects against undesired discoloration of the
plastic, but also will last the life of the plastic part.
Although AlphaSan
helps prevent bio-film build up it
does not eliminate the need for periodic cleaning and
maintenance. AlphaSan
has no adverse effect on the
taste of the ice or beverage.

Caution
If you are cleaning the condenser fan blades with
water, cover the fan motor to prevent water damage
and disconnect electrical power.
