    (LED 9 is on when FWV is open). When the refill counter is activated, the refill will last until UF/S closes or for 60 seconds, whichever is shorter. After UF/S closes, FWV closes 3 seconds later. KMD-210AB-HC refills 1 time. After the refill, the freeze continues until LF/S opens again and terminates ice production.

    [e] NORMAL HARVEST CYCLE LEDs 5, 6, and 8 are on. Comp continues to run, HGV remains open and HWV opens. As the evaporator warms, the thermistor reaches 9°C. The control board then receives the thermistor’s 3.9kΩ signal and starts the harvest timer. HWV is open during harvest for a maximum of 6 minutes or the length of harvest minus 0, 10, 30, or 50 seconds (adjustable by S1 dip switch 7 &...

    [b] FEATURES a) Maximum Water Supply Period - 6 minutes The harvest water valve will be open during harvest for 6 minutes or the length of harvest minus 0, 10, 30, or 50 seconds (adjustable by S1 dip switch 7 & 8), whichever is shorter. b) Harvest Backup Timer and Freeze Timer The harvest backup timer shuts down the icemaker if, for two cycles in a row, the harvest cycle takes more than 20 minutes to complete.
  • Page 12 f) LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties The control board includes LED indicator lights, audible alarm safeties, and an output test feature. The "POWER OK" LED indicates control voltage and will remain on unless a control voltage problem occurs. The “POWER OK” LED flashes continuously when the bin is full and DV energizes for a maximum of 5 minutes to drain the water tank.

  • Page 14 c) Drain Timer (S1 dip switch 3 & 4) Once every ten freeze cycles, the drain valve opens to drain the water tank for the time determined by the drain timer. These switches also determine the time to delay completion of a harvest cycle, i.e.
  • Page 15 Do not adjust. This must be left in the factory default position or the unit will not operate properly. It is deactivated on the KMD-210AB-HC. When activated, this control promotes harvest of ice on the evaporator that is hard to remove.
  • Page 16 Do not adjust. This must be left in the factory default position or the unit will not operate properly. It is deactivated on the KMD-210AB-HC. When activated, this control determines whether ice remains on the evaporator at the end of a harvest cycle and at the beginning of a freeze cycle.

  • Page 17: [D] Control Board Check Procedure

    l) Anti-Slush Control (S2 dip switch 6) Do not adjust. This must be left in the factory default position or the unit will not operate properly. When activated (Ver. 1.1), the thermistor located on the suction line checks for a 41°F (5°C) temperature as the evaporator cools.

  • Page 18: Harvest Control - Thermistor

    4. HARVEST CONTROL – THERMISTOR A thermistor (semiconductor) is used as a harvest control sensor, anti-slush sensor, and overfreeze sensor. The resistance varies depending on the suction line temperatures. The thermistor detects the temperature of the evaporator outlet to start the harvest timer, to momentarily stop the pump motor during the freeze cycle, or to extend the harvest cycle time.

  • Page 19: Float Switch

    5. FLOAT SWITCH [a] EXPLANATION OF OPERATION The float operates 2 switches within the float switch. The lower switch (black and blue wires) is used for low water safety protection, initiating the freeze cycle refill and terminating the freeze cycle. The upper switch (black and red wires) is used to terminate the freeze cycle refill only.

    IV. SERVICE DIAGNOSIS 1. 10-MINUTE DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE The 10 minute check out procedure is basically a sequence check which can be used at unit start-up or for system diagnosis. Using this check out procedure will allow you to diagnose electrical system and component failures in approximately 10 minutes under normal operating conditions of 21°C or warmer air and 10°C or warmer water temperatures.
  • Page 26 a. Lower Float Switch 1st Activation: Refill – The refill can occur at any time during the freeze cycle (1 refill per cycle). As ice builds the water level drops in the reservoir and the lower float switch activates (opens). LED 5 comes on and the control board energizes the fill water valve.

    V. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT WARNING Only trained service engineer can service the R290 refrigeration unit. 1. SERVICE FOR REFRIGERANT LINES [a] SERVICE INFORMATION 1) Allowable Compressor Opening Time and Prevention of Lubricant Mixture [R290] The compressor must not be opened more than 30 minutes in replacement or service. Do not mix lubricants of different compressors even if both are charged with the same refrigerant, except when they use the same lubricant.

  • Page 33: [B] Refrigerant Recovery

    7) Evacuation, Vacuum Pump and Refrigerant Charge [R290] Never allow the oil in the vacuum pump to flow backward. The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for the current refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for R290.

  • Page 34: Welding Repair For R290 Refrigeration Circuit

    4) Close the low-side and high-side valves on the service manifold. 5) Disconnect the vacuum pump, and attach a refrigerant charging cylinder to accurately weigh in the liquid charge. Remember to purge any air from the charging hose. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge.
