TABLE OF CONTENTS

The NM1850RH (remote high side) is the
freezer portion of a commercial ice machine. It
is designed to be connected to the
condensing section of a refrigeration system,
specifically a supermarket R-502 system. It
consists of two evaporators, two gearmotors,
two liquid line valves, two control boxes, two
thermostatic expansion valves, and an EPR
valve.

  • Page 17: Service Diagnosis

    NM1850RH SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - No Ice Being Produced STATUS: NOTHING OPERATES A. Check: Voltage to the unit, restore it if there is none. Compare to the nameplate. B. Check: The master switch, switch ON if off. C. Check: The reset switch, (on the circuit board): depress and release the switch. If the still does not start, check: the spout switch.
  • Page 18 If the bin empty light is still OFF, check the circuit board. 1. Unplug "opto trans" and "LED" connectors from the circuit board. 2. Plug "opto trans" and "LED" connectors from the Scotsman Electronic Control Testor Model NM1 into the circiut board.
