Page 44: Sequence Of Operation
Sequence of Operation Depending on ambient conditions and cold water supply temperature, the ice making process will take approximately 45-105 minutes. Initial Start-Up or Start-Up After Automatic Shut- Off: Step 1 Water Purge/Refrigeration Equalization Before the compressor starts, the harvest valve and dump valve will energize for 15 seconds to equalize pressure in the refrigeration system and purge old water from the system. - Page 45 Harvest Sequence Step 5 Water Purge The water pump, dump valve, water inlet valve remain on for 45 seconds, then shutoff. Step 6 Harvest The evaporator is warmed, allowing the cubes to release from the evaporator, pass through the water curtain and drop into the storage bin.

Page 58: Eliminate All Non Refrigeration Problems Before Diagnosing The Refrigeration System
ELIMINATE ALL NON REFRIGERATION PROBLEMS BEFORE DIAGNOSING THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM. • Perform a visual inspection for clearances, drains, dirty condenser/filter and water filter replacement. • Verify water spray is even across the entire evaporator. • Run an ice production check - Ice production checks within 10% are considered normal. -
Page 59: Water System Checklist
WATER SYSTEM CHECKLIST A water-related problem often causes the same symptoms as a refrigeration system component malfunction. Example: Water loss during the freeze cycle, a system low on charge, and a restricted TXV have similar symptoms. Water system problems must be identified and eliminated prior to replacing refrigeration components. -
Page 60: Ice Cube Pattern
ICE CUBE PATTERN Ice cube formation is helpful in ice machine diagnostics. Analyzing the ice formation alone cannot diagnose an ice machine malfunction. However, when this analysis is used along with the “TXV Failure/Low Refrigerant Charge Symptoms” on page 66, it can help diagnose an ice machine malfunction. - Page 61 Extremely Thin at Evaporator Inlet There is no ice, or a considerable lack of ice formation at the inlet of the evaporator. Examples: The ice at the outlet of the evaporator reaches the correct thickness, but there is no ice formation at all at the inlet of the evaporator. Possible cause: Obstructed nozzles, Insufficient water flow, incorrect refrigerant charge.
-
Page 62: Ice Production Check
ICE PRODUCTION CHECK The amount of ice a machine produces directly relates to the operating water and air temperatures. This means an ice machine with a 70°F (21°C) ambient temperature and 50°F (10°C) water produces more ice than the same ice machine with 90°F (32°C) ambient and 70°F (21°C) water. - Page 63 If they match closely, determine if: • Another larger ice machine is required. • Relocating the existing equipment to lower the load conditions is required. Contact the local Manitowoc distributor for information on available options and accessories. Part Number STH111 Rev 01 08/23...

Mineral buildup can cause nozzle blockage, water tracking and an erratic ice fill pattern. Descale with Manitowoc Ice Machine cleaner to remove any mineral buildup before diagnosing the refrigeration system. 2.

Page 66: Starving Txv/Low Refrigerant Charge Symptoms
STARVING TXV/LOW REFRIGERANT CHARGE SYMPTOMS • A starving TXV or low refrigerant charge will have a suction line temperature higher than normal and a discharge line temperature slightly higher than normal. • Low refrigerant charge will have both the suction and discharge line temperatures slightly higher than normal in the freeze and harvest cycles. -
Page 67: Suction Line Temperature
Suction and discharge line temperature will be low during the freeze cycle. Overcharge diagnosis can be difficult. USE0050 ice machines ship without access valves; Look for signs that an access valve has previously been added. When an overcharge is suspected remove the refrigerant and weigh in the correct refrigerant amount. -

Page 72: Float Switch
Float Switch Function Open and close to indicate to the control board the level of water in the water trough. Specifications Normally closed, float operated magnetic reed switch. The float switch contacts are closed in the down position. When water raises the float to the up position the magnet in the float opens the contacts. - Page 73 Check Procedure Initial testing can be performed by viewing the control board light(s) while raising and lowering the float. The corresponding control board light must turn on and off when the float is raised (open contacts) and lowered (closed contacts). Ice Thickness or Harvest Float Switch: The light must be on in the down position.
-
Page 74: Water Curtain Switch
Water Curtain Switch FUNCTION Movement of the water curtain controls bin switch operation. The bin switch has two main functions: 1. Harvest Cycle: When ice drops from the evaporator it passes through the water curtain and starts a harvest finish timer. This will allow additional individual cubes to harvest before entering back into the prechill cycle. -
Page 75: Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS The bin switch is a magnetically operated reed switch. The magnet is attached to the lower right corner of the water curtain. The bin switch is connected to a varying D.C. voltage circuit. (Voltage does not remain constant.) NOTE: Because of a wide variation in D.C. voltage, it is not recommended that a voltmeter be used to check bin switch operation. -
Page 76: Bin Thermistor
Bin Thermistor Function The bin thermistor stops the ice machine when the bin is full. The level of ice in the ice storage bin controls the ice machine shut-off. When the bin is full, ice cubes contact the bin thermistor, which cools down and signals the control board to stop the ice machine. -

Compressor Electrical Diagnostics The compressor does not start or will trip repeatedly on overload. Check Resistance (Ohm) Values NOTE: Compressor windings can have very low ohm values. Use a properly calibrated meter. Perform the resistance test after the compressor cools. The compressor dome should be cool enough to touch (below 120°F/49°C) to ensure that the overload is closed and the resistance readings will be accurate. - Page 82 Compressor Drawing Locked Rotor The two likely causes of this are: • Defective starting component • Mechanically seized compressor To determine which you have: 1. Install high and low side gauge. 2. Try to start the compressor. 3. Watch the pressures closely. •...

Page 83: Filter-Driers
Liquid Line Filter Drier The filter-drier used on Manitowoc ice machines are manufactured to Manitowoc specifications. The difference between a Manitowoc drier and an off- the-shelf drier is in filtration. A Manitowoc drier has dirt-retaining filtration, with fiberglass filters on both the inlet and outlet ends. -
Page 84: Refrigerant Procedures
Refrigerant Procedures REFRIGERANT PURGING PROCEDURE 1. Disconnect all electric power to the system and lockout tag out the power source(s). 2. Install piercing valves on the high and low side access fittings. 3. Attach manifold gauge set to the low and high side fittings. -
Page 85: Refrigerant Charging
Important The charge is critical on all Manitowoc ice machines. Use a scale to ensure the proper charge is installed. Quick disconnect fittings are required on the manifold gauge set to prevent refrigerant loss. - Page 86 NOTE: Manifold gauge set must be removed properly to ensure no refrigerant contamination or loss occurs. 14. Verify all of the vapor in the charging hoses is drawn into the refrigeration system before disconnecting the charging hoses. Run the ice machine in freeze cycle. Remove the high side low loss fitting.
