How the dispenser works

Follett's 12 series automatic-load ice and water dispensers are equipped with Follett's 425 lb (193 kg)/day ice
machine. In the continuous icemaking process, water freezes to the inside wall of the evaporator. A rotating
stainless steel auger carries the ice to the top of the evaporator where it is compressed and extruded through
an outlet port. The ice is then pushed through a tube to the storage hopper. When the hopper is full, a bin
thermostat opens and shuts the ice machine off. When the dispense mechanism is activated, a dispense motor
is turned on, causing the wheel to turn. This moves ice to the dispense chute where it drops by gravity into the
container held below the chute.
How SensorSAFE infrared dispensing works
Follett's SensorSAFE infrared dispensing maximizes sanitation and minimizes the possibility of cross-
contamination by eliminating physical contact between the cup or container and dispenser. Sensors in the
panel use reflected infrared light to detect the presence of the container and send a signal to a control board
which then activates the appropriate components for ice or water dispensing.
The SensorSAFE infrared dispensing package includes a cleaning switch under the left side of the front cover
which temporarily shuts off dispensing to allow cleaning of the panel and lenses. If the switch is not turned
back on after cleaning, the dispenser automatically resets after two minutes for normal operation.
SensorSAFE infrared dispensing also includes a time limit safety feature which automatically stops ice
dispensing after one minute of continuous dispensing. Dispensing can be resumed by moving the container
away from the dispenser and returning it to the activation zone.
