Depending on ambient conditions and water temperature,
one ice production cycle takes approximately 30 minutes.
Water fill cycle. The water inlet valve purges old water
1
from the system.
Refrigeration system start-up. The compressor starts
2
after the water fill cycle and remains on throughout the
freeze and harvest cycles. The condenser fan motor
starts and runs throughout the freeze cycle.
Freeze cycle. Water is sprayed into the inverted cups.
3
The water freezes layer by layer until an ice cube forms
in each cup. The control system adjusts the length of the
freeze cycle to conditions.
Harvest cycle. The evaporator warms, allowing the
4
cubes to be released and drop into the storage bin. The
control system adjusts the length of the harvest cycle
to conditions. At the end of the harvest cycle, another
freeze cycle begins.
Automatic shut-off. The level of ice in the storage bin
5
controls the automatic shut-off. When the bin is full, ice
will contact the bin thermostat, which cools, signaling ice
production to stop. When the ice level drops and ice no
longer contacts the bin thermostat, it will warm, signaling
ice production to resume.
