  • Page 17: Operation

    NM1852R OPERATION: Water Water enters the machine through the 3/8" male flare at the rear of the cabinet, divides into two inlet lines to each water reservoir which it enters through the float valve. The water them goes out the bottom of the reservoir tanks to the bottom of the evaporators.
  • Page 18 NM1852R OPERATION: Refrigeration There are two separate refrigeration systems in this machine. Beginning at the compressor, the refrigerant is compressed into a high temperature gas. The discharge line directs this gas to the condenser. At the remote condenser the gas is cooled by air and it then condenses into a liquid.

  • Page 20 NM1852R OPERATION: Refrigeration There are two separate refrigeration systems in this machine. During the pump down cycle (usually initiated by the circuit board de-energizing the liquid line valve) the discharge gases flow through their normal path to the remote condenser, through the head pressure control, and into the receiver.
  • Page 21: Maintenance & Cleaning

    MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING The NM1852R is made up of two separate ice makers; to properly clean and maintain the NM1852R, these steps must be followed for both systems. A Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any company’s business.

    NM1852R MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING The NM1852R is made up of two separate ice makers; to properly clean and maintain the NM1852R, these steps must be followed for both systems. WARNING Disconnect electrical power before beginning. 1. The bin control uses devices that sense light, therefore they must be kept clean enough so that they can "see".

  • Page 24: Service Diagnosis

    NM1852R SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - No Ice Being Produced A. Check: Voltage to the unit, restore it if there is none. Compare to the nameplate. B. Check: The master switch, switch ON if off. C. Check: The 2 reset switches (spout switch, or on prior models, the circuit board; and high pressure): depress and release each switch.
  • Page 25 . If the bin empty light is still OFF, check the circuit board . 1. Unplug "opto trans" and "LED" connectors from the circuit board. 2. Plug "opto trans" and "LED" connectors from the Scotsman Electronic Control Tester Model NM1 into the circuit board .
  • Page 26 NM1852R SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - No Ice Being Produced STATUS: GEARMOTOR OPERATES, COMPRESSOR DOES NOT A. Check the pump down control switch. 1. This pressure switch opens at 0-4 psig, and closes at 14-20 psig. If open check the low side pressure, if after running the machine the switch opens at a pressure higher than 5 psig, replace the switch.

The only correct way to charge this unit is to weigh in the nameplate charge. December 1992 Page 27 NM1852R...
  • Page 28: Removal And Replacement: Water Reservoir & Bin Controls

    NM1852R REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT: Water Reservoir & Bin Controls WATER RESERVOIR 1. Shut off the water supply to the icemaker. 2. Remove front panel and reservoir cover. 3. To remove float only, pry the mounting flanges apart enough to lift one float pivot pin out of the flange hole, and pull float up and out of the reservoir.

    Scrub the auger with ice machine cleaner and hot water. ///////////////////////////WARNING////////////////////////////// Ice machine cleaner is an acid. Handle it with extreme care, keep out of reach of children. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// b. The water seal area. Because the auger has been removed, the water seal will have to be replaced.
  • Page 31: Water Seal

    4. Place a small bead of food grade silastic sealant RETAINING (such as 732 RTV or Scotsman part number RING 19-0529-01) on the area of the auger where the water seal is to be mounted.
