One Cornelius Place Anoka, MN 55303 1–800–554–3526 The warranty on Cornelius icemakers begins on the date of installa- tion, as reported on the warranty registration card to the original owner/user. If no warranty card is received by the factory, the date of shipment from the factory will determine the start of the warranty.

ICE CAPACITY INFORMATION Ice Capacity Ice capacity of any ice maker is affected by many operating condi- tions, such as water and air temperature and location factors. Please review the capacity tables in this manual for average 24–hour capac- ity under various conditions.

ADJUSTMENT OF ICE BRIDGE THICKNESS TOP ROW .95 CM - 1.59 CM DIMPLE CENTER .32 CM BRIDGE BOTTOM 2 ROWS .48 CM - .64 CM BRIDGE For optimum ice production and maximum cube separation, the ice connecting the individual cubes should be a minimum of 1/8” (.32cm) thick at the center area of the ice waffle.
Page 16
Should a different thickness of the bridge be desired, it will be re- quired to adjust the ice thickness “POT”, located on the circuit board, as follows: Thinner Bridge – turn the ice thickness “pot” adjust- ment screw CW one full turn. Allow two cycles before determining if additional adjustments are re- quired.
“I” SERIES SEQUENCE OF OPERATION When the on off clean switch is pushed to the on position the com- pressor will start after a 2 second delay. The fan motor and pump are delayed.

Dump Cycle Options You have the option of selecting dump cycle intervals of: every cycle; (Standard setting from factory) every 3rd cycle; every 5th cycle; every 7th cycle. Remember, the higher the mineral content in the water supply the more often it will be required to dump the water and/or clean the product if proper water treatment is not used.
Condenser Fan Cycling Control (Intergal Condenser) The condenser fan on air-cooled cubers is cycled by the circuit board. The condenser sensor signals the circuit board when the con- denser temperature reaches 100°F (38°C) the fan starts and contin- ues to run until the temperature is reduced to 88°F (31°C). NOTE: There is no pressure control used to cycle the fan motor on Intergal Air Cooled Condenser Units.

Sensor [Thermistor] Diagnosis Sensors Condenser or suction line – Turn Cuber power switch OFF. Discon- nect sensor plug from board. Use digital multimeter set for D.C. Voltage. Turn power switch ON connect leads of meter across the two pins of the sensor being checked, meter should read 2.5 VDC0.2 output voltage from the board.
Should sensor (thermistor) pass the voltage test pro- ceed to the control board diagnosis for LED sequence (see page 39). NOTE: The sensor controls the condenser fan cycling from 88/100 degree Fahrenheit. Thus any defects in the condenser circuit will effect the fan cycling rate. Evaporator Switches Proximity Switches are half mounted to the water curtain, and the other half mounted to the evaporator side rail.
Should adjustment be required, the valve has an adjustment stem on the top of the valve. After allowing the cuber to operate for 10 min- utes in the ice making mode to balance the system, turning the ad- justing stem CW will increase the discharge water temperature, and CCW will decrease the discharge water temperature.
Flow control washer flat side up Service Stem Valves When closing the service stem valves to remove your gauge and manifold set always close the high side stem valve first. Following this procedure will allow the system to “PULL” the refrigerant vapor from your manifold set to reduce refrigerant loss.
HP 62 refrigerant. Should the need arise to replace this or any refrigerant components, be certain to use only compo- nents recommended by Cornelius for the model of the Cuber being serviced. Use of nonapproved components will compound system difficulties and may void product warranty.
70°F by-pass The Cornelius “I” series remote systems use an Alco Head Pressure Control, normally referred to as a headmaster. This control is mounted in the remote condenser with a fan cycling control switch. Using both these controls gives the system positive operation under a wide range of condensing temperatures.

This allow the high pres- sure vapor from the discharge port to “buck”...
defective. The overload protector, start and/or run capacitor, relay, circuit board, safety controls, etc. Check voltage at compressor terminals. NO voltage will require checking the electrical circuit working back from the compressor to determine where the volt- age supply is interrupted and correct as required. The load voltage, while compressor is trying to start, should not be less than 90% of rated required voltage.

Voltage should always try and be matched, if it cannot be it is acceptable to increase up to 10% higher than the voltage listed on the capacitor be- ing replaced. NEVER put a capacitor on a product with a voltage rating lower than the original being replaced.
Compressor mechanical problems Low Refrigerant Charge Moisture Contamination With the major changes in refrigerants in today’s marketplace and the use of hydroscopic oils the control of moisture and contaminates have become more critical to safeguard against than ever before in the history of mechanical refrigeration.
Page 54
Readings in the range listed below 100 Meg–Ohm would be an indi- cator that the system being tested may have a contamination prob- lem. Where does the problem come from? As an example, the filter drier may become saturated and hold large percentages of moisture and the system function without a problem until such time as the product operating conditions change.

Cleaning Procedures Approved ice machine cleaners by brand names: Lime-A-Way Calgon Nickel Safe (green color only) NOTE: All ice machine cleaners labeled safe for nickel ARE NOT the brand CALGON NICKEL SAFE. Caution: Ice machine cleaners are acidic-based chemi- cals. Before begnning any cleaning of the cub- er, the ice in the storage bin or dispenser must be removed.
Return the water curtain(s) to their proper operating position. Add 88.8 Mil. for a single evaporator, or 147.9 Mil. for a dual evaporator of “Calgon Nickel-Safe” or “Lime-A-Away” ice machine cleaner directly into the water pan the float will balance with inlet water. Set switch to CLEAN, circulate for a maximum of 15 min- utes.
