    9. Fill out the manufacturers registration card, and mail it to the Scotsman Factory. 10. Fill out the field quality audit form, and mail it to the Scotsman factory.
  • Page 10: Component Description

    Water Level Sensor: Senses if there is water in the reservoir to make ice out of. Will shut the machine off it there is none. There are two of each of the above components in the NM1852. WATER COOLED COMPRESSOR Ice Discharge Chute: Directs the ice produced by the evaporator into the storage bin.
  • Page 11 Transformer: Supplies low voltage to the circuit board. Low Pressure Cut Out Switch: A manual reset control that shuts off the ice machine when the low side pressure drops below a preset point, 0-4 psig. Potential Relay: The compressor start relay.
  • Page 12 NM1852 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Evaporator: A refrigerated vertical tube filled with water and containing a water seal and auger. Auger: A solid stainless steel double spiral auger, it pushes the ice crystals up to the top of the evaporator. Water Seal: A two part "face" seal, the top half rotating with the auger, the bottom half stationary, the sealing action being where the two seal "faces"...

    If the spout switch opens, the machine will stop immediately (through the relays on the circuit board). The spout switch must be manually reset. Each master switch is the manual control for each system, but it is not a service disconnect. August 1993 Page 13 NM1852...
  • Page 14: Operation

    NM1852 OPERATION: Water WATER INLET DRAIN CHUTE Water enters the machine through the 3/8" male flare at the rear of the cabinet, splits into two separate lines, flows to a strainer at each reservoir and then to each water reservoir which it enters through the float valve.

  • Page 16: Maintenance And Cleaning

    NM1852 MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING The NM1852 is made up of two separate ice makers; to properly clean and maintain the NM1852, these steps must be followed for both systems. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// A Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any company’s business.
  • Page 17 MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING The NM1852 is made up of two separate ice makers; to properly clean and maintain the NM1852, these steps must be followed for both systems. ///////////////////////////WARNING///////////////////////////// Disconnect electrical power before beginning. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 1. The bin control uses devices that sense light, therefore they must be kept clean enough so that they can “see”.
  • Page 18 NM1852 MAINTENANCE: Air Cooled 5. Clean each air cooled condenser. Use a vacuum cleaner or coil cleaner if needed. Do NOT use a wire brush. ////////////////////////////WARNING/////////////////////////////// Disconnect electrical power. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// A. Remove top panel. PANEL B. Remove two screws, and unplug the fan motors.

  • Page 20: Service Diagnosis

    NM1852 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 3 reset switches, (spout switch, high and low pressure): depress and release each switch.
  • Page 21 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 Tester Model NM1 into the circuit board.
  • Page 22 NM1852 SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - No Ice Produced STATUS: GEARMOTOR OPERATES, COMPRESSOR DOES NOT A. Check the compressor relay. The relay is on the circuit board, if it does not supply power to the contactor coil, the compressor will not run.
  • Page 23 NM1852 SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - Low Ice Production STATUS: EVERYTHING IS OPERATING A. Check the air cooled condenser for dirt. Clean as required. Check the head pressure on water cooled. Adjust as required. If the head pressure is very high: 1.

    Scrub the auger with ice machine cleaner and hot water. ///////////////////////////WARNING////////////////////////////// Ice machine cleaner is an acid. Handle it with extreme care, keep out of the reach of children. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 2. The water seal area. Because the auger has been removed, the water seal will have to be replaced.
