INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS You will get better service from the ice machine, longer life and greater convenience if you choose its location with care. Here are a few points to consider: 1. Select a location as close as possible to where you are going to use the ice. 2.
14. Turn machine on and check for proper voltage and amp draw on the entire unit as well as components such as the gearmotor and fan motor. 15. Check refrigerant circuit and all plumbing connections for leaks, etc. 16. Check bin thermostat or mechanical shut–off for proper operations. In the mid–range the bin thermostat will open at 42°...
WARNING: WATER LEVEL MUST BE MAINTAINED AT THE TOP OF THE EVAPORATOR. WATER LEVEL ill224 FIGURE 3. WATER LEVEL 1. Remove gearmotor and auger. 2. Adjust float valve to get water level to top seam of the evaporator. 3. Re–install auger. WATER LEVEL WILL RISE WHEN AUGER IS INSERTED BUT WHEN THE MACHINE IS TURNED BACK ON AND ICE STARTS BEING MADE, THE WATER LEVEL WILL GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL SETTING.
TYPICAL WATER CIRCUIT The supply water enters the float chamber through a small orifice. The water level rises and lifts the buoyant float with it. The float attached to the float arm seats a valve to shut off any further water supply. As water leaves the float chamber, the level drops along with the float and arm, causing the valve to open and admit more water.
TYPICAL REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT Heat always flows from hot to cold and therefore, the ”heat load” supplied to the evaporator section by water gives up its heat to the refrigerant which is at a temperature below the freezing point of water. This refrigerant now passes through the heat exchanger back to the compressor, as a low pressure vapor.
ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION As the manual on–off–circuit breaker switch is pushed to ”on”, an electrical circuit is completed to the gearmotor via the circuit breaker gearmotor overload, power relay / contactor, gearmotor delay thermostat and the bin thermostat. After the previous circuit has been completed the condenser fan motor will start as will the compressor (via the high pressure control and the compressor starting relay).
COMPRESSOR START RELAY This is a current type relay and contains a N.O. contact which is connected in series with the start winding of the compressor. The relay coil is electrically in series with the run winding. When power is applied, the compressor draws high current which sets up a magnetic field around the magnet coil which causes the relay to operate, closing the relay contact.
MAINTENANCE THE FOLLOWING MAINTENANCE SHOULD BE PERFORMED AT LEAST EVERY SIX MONTHS ON FLAKED ICE MACHINES: 1. Check power supply with machine running for proper voltage. 2. Check water level in the float tank reservoir. Water level should be maintained at the top of the evaporator. Adjust if necessary.
SANITIZING AND CLEANING PROCEDURE 1. Turn switch to ”OFF” to stop unit. 2. Remove top cabinet panel. CAUTION: Hazardous moving parts. Do not operate unit with panel removed. 3. Mix sanitizing solution by using 0.5-ounces of household liquid bleach (such as Hi-Lex or Chlorox) to one gallon of potable water.
IMI Cornelius has water filter/treatment systems available to control impurities found in your water supply. Con- tact your local dealer for more information.
