ELECTRICAL SEQUENCE

Refer the wiring diagram as needed.
The following description applies to either one
of the two ice making systems. They operate
independently of each other.
If the machine is switched off at the master
switch, but is otherwise ready to go, switching
the master switch to on does the following:
• •
The bin empty light on the circuit board
goes on
• •
There is a 15 second delay
• •
If there is enough water in the reservoir, the
circuit board will allow the machine to start
up.
Start up consists of:
• •
The compressor relay and auger motor
relay become energized, connecting power
to the windings of the auger motor.
• •
The auger motor starts, and the centrifugal
switch closes, connecting power to the
compressor contactor coil.
• •
The contactor is energized, connecting
power to the compressor, and the
compressor starts.
• •
As ice goes past the ice level sensors, the
bin empty light will stay on, and the
machine will continue to run, unless the ice
stays between the sensors for more than
15 seconds (bin full). At that point, the bin
empty light goes out, and the machine
shuts down.
Shut Down consists of:
• •
The compressor relay opens.
• •
The compressor contactor opens
• •
The compressor stops
• •
The auger motor is run by the circuit board
for 2.5 more minutes, clearing out ice in the
evaporator, and then
• •
The auger motor relay opens, and the
auger motor stops.
If the ice level sensor is clear (bin empty) for
more than 15 seconds, the machine will start
up again.
Another purpose of the circuit board is to turn
the machine off if there is not enough water in
the machine.
• •
When the water level in the reservoir falls
below the water level sensor, the machine
will "shut down"
• •
When the water refills the reservoir, the
machine will start up again.
Separate from the circuit board:
• •
If the high pressure control (cut out switch)
opens, the machine will stop immediately
(through the relays on the circuit board) and
cause the reset switch on the circuit board
to light up. It must be manually reset at the
control and at the reset switch on the circuit
board.
• •
If the low pressure control (cut out switch)
opens, the machine will stop immediately
(through the relays on the circuit board) and
cause the reset switch on the circuit board
to light up. It must be manually reset at the
control and at the reset switch on the circuit
board.
• •
If the spout switch opens, the machine will
stop immediately (through the relays on the
circuit board) and cause the reset switch on
the circuit board to light up. After it recloses
the reset switch on the circuit board must
be manually reset.
• •
Each master switch is the manual control
for each system, but it is not a service
disconnect.
