    To prevent back flow, do not connect drains. Separate drains for ice machine and condenser. Water shut-off recommended within 10 feet (3 m). Water supply must be treated by a scale-inhibiting filter (Follett item# 00130286). Ambient Air temperature 100 F/38 C max.
  • Page 6: Operation

    Cleaning of the condenser can usually be performed by facility personnel. Cleaning of the icemaker system, in most cases, should be performed by your facility’s maintenance staff or a Follett authorized service agent. Regardless of who performs the cleaning, it is the operator’s responsibility to see that this cleaning is performed according to the schedule below.
  • Page 7: Weekly Exterior Care

    • Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles (and/or face shield) when handling ice machine cleaner or sanitizer CAUTION • Use only Follett approved SafeCLEAN™ Cleaner (part #00132001) and NU-CALGON IMS-II or IMS-III SANITIZER (00979674). • Do not mix Cleaner and Sanitizer solutions together.
  • Page 8 Fig. 2 2. Mix 1 gallon (3.8L) 120 F (49 C) water and 7 ounces (198g) (one 7 ounce packet of Follett SafeCLEAN ice machine cleaner, part# 00132001). Locate cleaning cup. Fill until CLEANER FULL light comes on (Fig. 2).
  • Page 9 Fig. 5 5. Mix 1 gallon 120 F (49 C) water and 1.6 ounces (48ml) NU-CALGON IMS-II or IMS-III SANITIZER. Fill until CLEANER FULL light comes on (Fig. 5).

  • Page 10 Fig. 7 Disconnect coupling as shown (Fig. 7). Note: Steps 8-11 must be completed before machine flushes and starts producing ice. Fig. 8 8. Using disposable food service grade gloves, insert dry Sani-Sponge™ (kit part# 00132068). Next, insert Sani-Sponge soaked in Nu-Calgon IMS-II or IMS-III sanitizer solution (from Step 5).
  • Page 11 Fig. 9 9. Remove and discard 16" (407mm) pusher tube (Fig. 9). Fig. 10 10. Reconnect coupling. When sanitizing cycle ends, machine will start producing ice. Press power switch ON. Ice pushes Sani-Sponges through tube (Fig. 10). Fig. 11 11. Place a sanitary (2 gallon or larger) container in bin or dispenser to collect Sani-Sponges and ice for 10 minutes.

    The Horizon ice machine overview The Follett Horizon ice machine uses a horizontal, cylindrical evaporator to freeze water on its inner surface. The refrigeration cycle is continuous; there is no batch cycle. The evaporator is flooded with water and the level is controlled by sensors in a reservoir.
  • Page 13: Water System

    Water system The water level in the evaporator is controlled by a feed solenoid and level detecting sensors. Referencing the diagram below, water sensing rods extend down into the reservoir at the end of the evaporator assembly. The system works via electrical conductivity as follows: One of the longest probes is a common.
  • Page 14: Electrical System

    Electrical system ATTENTION! To prevent circuit breaker overload, wait 15 minutes before restarting this unit. This allows the compressor to equalize and the evaporator to thaw. Normal control board operation The PC board indicator lights provide all the information necessary to determine the machine's status. Green indicator lights generally represent “go”...

    R404A Refrigerant replacement requirements 1. Non-contaminated refrigerant removed from any Follett refrigeration system can be recycled and returned to the same system after completing repairs. Recycled refrigerant must be stored in a clean, approved storage container. If additional refrigerant is required, virgin or reclaimed refrigerant that meets ARI standard 700-88 must be used.
  • Page 28: "Bin Full" Detection System

    “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.
