ICEU070A

Component Description

Water Pump

The water pump operates continually throughout the freezing cycle. The pump forces the water from the sump to the spray system and through the spray nozzles so it sprays into the inverted cup molds to be frozen into crystal clear ice cubes.

Water Inlet Solenoid Valve

The water inlet solenoid valve is energized only during the defrost cycle. When energized it allows a metered amount of incoming water to flow over the evaporator cavity to assist the hot gas in defrosting the ice cubes.

The water running over the evaporator cavity drops by gravity, through the weep holes of the platen, into the sump.

Hot Gas Solenoid Valve

The hot gas solenoid valve consists basically in two parts: the valve body and the valve coil. Located on the hot gas line, this valve is energized by the contacts 3-2 of the evaporator thermostat during the defrost cycle.

During the defrost cycle the hot gas valve coil is activated so to attract the hot gas valve piston in order to give way to the hot gas discharged from compressor to flow directly into the evaporator serpentine to defrost the formed ice cubes.

Bin Thermostat

The bin thermostat control body is located in the front of control box behind the front louvered panel.

The thermostat sensing tube is located into a bulb holder on the side wall of the ice storage bin where it automatically shuts the ice machine OFF when in contact with the ice and re-starts the ice machine when the ice is removed. Factory settings are 1oC (35oF) OUT and 4oC (39oF) IN.

Cube Size Control (Evaporator Thermostat)

The cube size control (evaporator thermostat) body is located in the front of control box behind the front louvered panel; it’s basically a reverse acting temperature control which closes contacts 3-2 when its temperature decreases and closes the opposite contacts 3-4 when the temperature rises.
