Chapter 2 - System Subassembly Description

Water Pump Subassembly

The following is an illustration of the hydraulically driven water pump, the water filter and flow meter
subassembly, which is located near the board brush, on the left side of the machine:
DRAIN VALVES
The filter contains a number 100 mesh, and features a removable cap at the bottom that allows for some
amount of element flushing while the system is running and the cap is removed. If the water tank is filled
partially or fully when the cap is removed, it is possible that the flow rate from that alone will be sufficient
to flush the filter element without running the water pump.
The bronze gate valve shown in the illustration above allows operators who are planning to store the
machine overnight in freezing ambient conditions to completely and efficiently drain the Ice Making Water
tank.
The lower-most ball valve in the pump housing allows the pump housing to be fully drained, thereby
preventing against pump damage due to freezing and expanding water.
