Ice Bin Thermostat Sensor Installation.

Each machine is equipped with an electronic ice bin thermostat. To assure proper protection for the
machine, the sensor of the ice bin thermostat must be located so that ice will contact it when the bin is
full (See FIGURE-14). The distance between the ice chute and the sensor allows space for the machine
to make an additional discharge of ice AFTER the ice contacts the probe WITHOUT the ice building
up into the discharge opening of the chute.
Note: The probe should also be mounted on the backside of the bracket, opposite of the front of the bin
to reduce the possibility of damage from ice removal equipment.
The control panel is electrically connected so that the bin thermostat will stop the machine only upon
the completion of a harvest period and a partial pump down cycle.
When both cylinder and crushed ice are produced and separately stored in a divided bin, the control
sensor of thermostat BC1 is placed in the crushed ice section of the storage bin (left side) and the
control sensor of thermostat BC2 is placed in the cylinder ice section (right side of bin).
