ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 4. INSTALLATION 4.1. Recommended Placement of Unit THIS ICE MAKER IS NOT DESIGNED FOR OUTDOOR OPERATION. An incorrect installation of the equipment may cause damages to individuals, animals or other materials, being the manufacturer not responsible for such damages. CAUTION: The machines are designed to operate at room temperature between 5ºC (41ºF) and 43ºC (110ºF), with inlet water temperature between 5ºC (41ºF) and 35ºC (95ºF).

For minor impurities we recommend installing a 5-micron filter such as the one provided with the unit: Part # ITV 207499. This filter will need to be replaced only when machine stops due to insufficient water flow (filter is obstructed with impurities).
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL Connect to drainage (self contained) Drainage should be located lower to the machine level, at 150 mm (5.91 inches) minimum. It is convenient that the drainage pipe is of 30 mm (1.18 in) of interior diameter and with a minimum gradient of 3 cm (1.18 in) per meter (see figure).
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 5. INSTALLATION OF MODULAR EQUIPMENTS OVER BINS OR BINS (modular models) Modular makers should be installed over deposits or bins, following the bin manufacturer instructions. The resistance and stability of the container-machine/s assembly should be verified, as well as the fastening elements.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 6. OPERATION 6.1. Preliminary Checks a) Is machine levelled? b) Are voltage and frequency of mains supply the same as indicated on rating plate? c) Is drainage system working properly? d) Is air circulation and room temperature adequate? (Air-cooled models) ROOM WATER MAXIMUM...
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 8) After a few minutes, verify that the ice production has started. 9) In the case of modular models (mainly in three-phase equipments), having the cover removed, verify that the motor is rotating in the correct direction. IMPORTANT! Be sure voltage and frequency of mains supply is as indicated on rating plate.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 7. ADJUSTMENTS 7.1. Expansion valve DO NOT TOUCH THE EXPANSION VALVE. 7.2. Water level The function of the water level is to maintain the necessary flow on the evaporator, and using the magnetic micro device incorporated, stop the operation of the machine until the water reaches again the container.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 7.3. Pressure-controlled Valve on cooling water circuit • The purpose of this valve is to control cooling water flow to the condenser, so as to maintain the high pressure at 232-240 Psi, which corresponds to water temperature of 113°F (exit temperature).
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL Safety pressostat This safety device trips when pressure is too high. Pressure might reach the set limit of 440 Psi when: Air circulation is not sufficient, room temperature is too high, condens is dirty or fan motor is broken. (air-cooled models) Insufficient water in the cooling circuit, inlet water temperature is too h or fan motor is broken (water -cooled models).
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 7.6. Safety Devices • Overload protection device: will trip if maximum current intensity (A) is exceeded, hence preventing the motor from overheating due to current peaks. When overload trips, a red light will switch on in the front panel. The overload must be reset manually, to do so the front grille and overload cover must be removed.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 2) Remove the four screws that hold flange. 3) Remover gearbox (if necessary using extractor) Assembly: 1) Lubricate motor axle with grease. 2) Place gearbox . WARNING: Do not hammer. 4) Place flange screws. 5) Place top washer and screw, tighten until spindle is flush with gearbox axle. IMPORTANT: If motor wires are re-connected ,check rotation direction 8.3.

ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 9. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT! **Maintenance and cleaning procedures as well as problems derived from failing to carry them out are not covered by the warranty. Proper maintenance is essential to obtain favourable ice quality and optimum functioning of unit. Frequency depends on water quality and characteristics of room where unit is installed.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 10. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING PROCEDURES WARNING: Unit should always disconnected during maintenance/cleaning procedures. 10.1. Water condenser 1. Disconnect machine and close water faucet. 2. Remove the front grid. 3. Disconnect water entry/exit from condenser. 4. Prepare a solution of 50% phosphoric acid in distilled water. 5.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL use hydrochloric acid. We recommend the use of Scale-Kleen (Everpure) prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Slowly pour solution into water trough. (Solution is more effective at 35°-40°C / 95ºF-104ºF). 6. Allow solution to stand for 20 minutes. 7.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 10.6. Cleaning the water inlet filters They are easily obstructed during the first days of operation, mainly with new piping installations. Loose the hose and clean it under water. 10.7. Cleaning for water leaks This must be done whenever maintenance is carried out on the machine: check all water connections, braces, tubes and hoses in order to eliminate leaks and prevent breakages and flooding.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 11. SPECIAL ADVICE CONCERNING R-404 REFRIGERANT • R-404 is a mixture of 3 liquid-phase gases. On evaporating, the 3 component gases separate • Always use the liquid phase valve (at the end of condenser or accumulator) for refills and purges.
ICE QUEEN TECHNICAL SERVICE MANUAL 12. TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS POSSIBLE CAUSES SOLUTION No power. Check power supply and connection None of the electrical systems work. Switch OFF Power on Front display off Display connector loosened Check. Insert Dirty condenser Clean the condenser Poorly positioned machine Change location.
