CONTROLLER BOARD [a] SOLID-STATE CONTROL 1) A HOSHIZAKI exclusive solid-state control is employed in KM “F” Series -E Crescent Cubers. 2) A Printed Circuit Board (hereafter called “Controller Board”) includes a stable and high quality control system. 3) All models are pretested and factory-adjusted.
  • Page 24 2) Defrost Timer The defrost cycle starts when the Float Switch opens and completes the freeze cycle. But the Defrost Timer does not start counting until the Thermistor senses 9°C at the Evapora- tor outlet. The period from the end of the freeze cycle up to the point of the Thermistor's sensing varies depending on the ambient and water temperatures.

  • Page 31 Switch Nos. 9 and 10: Used for adjustment of Freeze Timer. The Freeze Timer determines maximum freeze cycle time. Upon termination of Freeze Timer, machine initiates the harvest cycle. After 2 consecutive timer terminations, machine will shut down, possibly indicating a problem. 1) Defrost Control A thermistor (Semiconductor) is used for a defrost control sensor.
  • Page 32 2) Defrost Timer No adjustment is required under normal use, as the Defrost Timer is adjusted to the suitable position. However, if necessary when all the ice formed on the Evaporator does not fall into the bin in the harvest cycle, adjust the Defrost Timer to a longer setting by adjusting the Dip Switch (No.
  • Page 33 4) Drain Counter CAUTION Do not adjust the Drain Counter, or the Evaporator may freeze up. The Drain Counter is factory-adjusted to drain the Water Tank every 10 cycles, and no adjustment is required. However, where water quality is bad and the icemaker needs a pump drain more often, the Drain Counter can be adjusted as shown in the table below: SETTING FREQUENCY...

    6) Bin Control CAUTION When the ambient temperature is below 45°F (7°C), the Bin Control Thermostat operates to stop the icemaker even if the Ice Storage Bin is empty. When the Thermostat is set in the prohibited range, the icemaker operates continuously even if the Ice Storage Bin is filled with ice.
  • Page 35 (iv) After Step (iii), de-energize the unit and confirm that the Defrost Timer is in the minimum position. Disconnect the resistor from the Controller Board, and ener- gize the unit. After the 1 minute water supply cycle, the defrost cycle starts. Re-connect a 1.5 K ohm - 3.5 K ohm resistor to the Connector K3 (pins #1 and #2) after the first 2 minutes of the defrost cycle.
