    Double System RL CONTROL BOX: Components Circuit Board: Controlling the ice machine using On/Off (Mode) Switch: Manual control for that input from ice and water sensors. The board side of the machine. switches loads on and off through relays. The relays are for the gear motor (with a built in time delay to clear the evaporator of ice when the unit turns off) and for the liquid line valve.

  • Page 12: Operation

    Double System RL OPERATION Water Water enters the machine through the 3/8" male flare at the rear of the cabinet, goes to the water reservoir which it enters through the float valve. The water then goes out the bottom of the reservoir tank to the bottom of the evaporator.
  • Page 13 Double System RL OPERATION: Refrigeration The remote high side supplies high pressure liquid refrigerant to the liquid line connection on the ice machine. After the sight glass, there are two separate liquid lines, each leading to a liquid line valve. When the individual ice level sensor causes the circuit board to energize the liquid line valve, the valve opens, allowing the liquid refrigerant to enter that expansion valve.

    Double System RL CLEANING and SANITATION A Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any company’s business. In order to receive the best return for that investment, it MUST receive periodic maintenance. It is the USER’S RESPONSIBILITY to see that the unit is properly maintained. It is always preferable, and less costly in the long run, to avoid possible down time by keeping it clean;...
