1) Defrost Control

A thermistor (Semiconductor) is used for a defrost control sensor. The resistance var- ies depending on the Suction Line temperatures. The Thermistor detects the tempera- ture of the Evaporator outlet to start the Defrost Timer. No adjustment is required. If necessary, check for resistance between Thermistor leads, and visually check the Thermistor mounting, located on the Suction Line next to the Evaporator outlet.

Check a thermistor for resistance by using the following procedures.

(i)Disconnect the connector K3 on the board.

(ii)Remove the Thermistor. See “V. 11. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF THER- MISTOR.”

(iii)Immerse the Thermistor sensor portion in a glass containing ice and water for 2 or 3 minutes.

(iv)Check for a resistance between Thermistor leads.

Normal reading is within 3.5 to 7 kW . Replace the Thermistor if it exceeds the normal reading.

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 longer setting by adjusting the Dip Switch (No. 1 & 2) on the Controller Board.

KM-630MRF, KM-630MWF, KM-630MAF specifications

The Hoshizaki KM-630MWF, KM-630MAF, and KM-630MRF are advanced commercial ice machines designed to meet the needs of various businesses, including restaurants, bars, and cafes. Renowned for their efficiency, durability, and performance, these models showcase Hoshizaki's dedication to innovation in the foodservice industry.

One of the primary features of the Hoshizaki KM-630 series is the production of crescent-shaped ice. This type of ice is not only aesthetically pleasing but also known for its slow melting properties, making it ideal for keeping beverages cold without diluting them quickly. With a production capacity of up to 617 pounds of ice per day, these machines are built to handle high-demand scenarios efficiently.

The KM-630MWF model is equipped with a water-cooled condenser, making it suitable for environments where air-cooled units might face challenges due to high ambient temperatures. In contrast, the KM-630MAF features an air-cooled condenser which is advantageous for businesses looking to reduce water usage. The KM-630MRF variant utilizes a remote-cooled option, offering flexibility in installation and reducing heat and noise in the kitchen areas.

All three models are built with superior quality stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to rust and corrosion. They are designed to be easy to clean, featuring a smooth surface that minimizes dirt and bacteria buildup. Furthermore, Hoshizaki incorporates their advanced EverCheck alert system, providing operators with real-time performance notifications and ensuring reliable operation.

Energy efficiency is a crucial characteristic of the KM-630 series. These machines are designed to comply with industry standards, significantly reducing energy consumption and operating costs. Their highly efficient refrigeration system not only enhances ice production but also extends the lifespan of the machine.

In terms of ease of use, Hoshizaki has designed the KM-630 series to feature a user-friendly control panel. This panel allows for straightforward monitoring and modification of operations, ensuring operators can manage the machine effectively.

Overall, the Hoshizaki KM-630MWF, KM-630MAF, and KM-630MRF ice machines represent a blend of advanced technology, energy efficiency, and robust construction, making them an ideal choice for businesses that demand high-quality ice production. With their innovative features, these machines are poised to elevate the service capabilities of any establishment.
