COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

Control Box: Contains the electrical controls that
operate the machine.
High Pressure Cut Out Switch : A manual reset
switch sensing the high side refrigeration pressure.
It is set to shut the machine off if the discharge
pressure should ever exceed 450 psig.
Evaporator: A vertical stainless steel tube,
refrigerated, and water filled. In it there is a
stainless steel auger.
Compressor: The refrigerant vapor pump.
Reservoir: Float operated, it maintains the water
level in the evaporator at a constant level, it also
