"Bin full" detection system
The Follett Horizon ice machine incorporates a unique "bin full" detection system that consists of the shuttle and
actuator. The shuttle incorporates a flag and switch. Referencing the figure below, the normal running position of the
flag is down, and the switch is closed. When the bin fills to the top and ice can no longer move through the tube, the
machine will force the shuttle flag up, opening the switch and shutting the machine off. The shuttle actuator, located
above the ice bin allows the ice to curl up within it when the bin is full. In this way, there are no loads generated that
would tend to lift off the lid of the bin.
