The Refrigeration System - JEM Glaciator X-stream User Manual

When operating the machine for long periods, there will always be a build-
up of condensation in the evaporator unit. This will drain into the drip tray,
which should be emptied regularly.
For installation, an optional drain hose can be fitted. The drip tray access
hole has a 6 mm (1/4 in.) push-in elbow located in the roof. You can fit 6
mm (1/4 in.) nylon piping into this by simply pushing the piping into the
fitting. This will allow extended drainage. Your Jem or Martin dealer can
supply you with a fluid line head (P/N 62520020).
Changing the onboard fluid bottle
The local fluid system uses a 5 liter container (1.3 US gallon) that provides
approximately 1.5 hours of continuous operation at full output. To change
the bottle:
1 Remove the empty fluid bottle from its compartment.
2 Fit a new container of fluid into the fluid compartment (or refill the empty
bottle).
3 Remove the container cap (if new bottle has been used) and screw on the
tank adaptor cap.
4 Ensure that the tube with fluid filter reaches the bottom of the tank.

To cool the smoke down to a fog the machine utilizes a 'refrigeration
system'.
The refrigeration system is switched on and off using the ICE switch on
the control panel. There will be a delay of 10 to 30 seconds while the
system pressures equalize, followed by the motor starting. During the
motor start cycle, the heaters are switched off to reduce the peak current
draw.
Power saving mode
If the machine is not fired, the evaporator temperature will drop to -25°C or
lower and a timer will start. When the unit has been at this temperature
(without being fired) for approximately 20 minutes, the system will shut
down and enter the power saving mode. Power save mode will continue
until the machine is fired, or the evaporator temperature reaches -4°C.
