COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Water Inlet Solenoid Valve
The water inlet solenoid valve fills the sump
assembly with water and excess water overflows
out the standpipe and down the drain. This action
fills and rinses the sump during each harvest
cycle. The flow rate is 1 g.p.m.
Water Distribution System
The water distribution system evenly supplies
water to all cells of the evaporator plates. The
water pump pumps water from the sump up the
vertical tygon tube to the tee. From there water is
channeled through the water manifold to the water
distributors, above each evaporator plate, and
from six holes within each distributor, water flows
to the cells of each side of the evaporator plates.
Gravity flow returns the unfrozen excess portion of
water to the sump reservoir for recirculation.

Hot Gas Solenoid Valve
The hot gas solenoid valve functions only during
the harvest cycle, to divert the hot discharge gas
from the compressor, by passing the condenser,
for direct flow in the evaporator plates to release
ice cubes from the ice cube molds. The hot gas
solenoid valve is installed in a branch of the
discharge line. When the harvest cycle begins the
energized solenoid coil lifts the valve stem within
the valve body, to cause the hot discharge gas to
be diverted to the evaporators.
