Ice Machine Operation

Section 3

HARVEST SEQUENCE WATER PURGE

The harvest sequence water purge adjustment may be used when the ice machine is hooked up to special water systems, such as a de-ionized water treatment system.

Important

The harvest sequence water purge is factory-set at 45 seconds. A shorter purge setting is not recommended. This can increase water system cleaning and sanitizing requirements.

The harvest sequence water purge may be set to 15, 30, or 45 seconds.

During the harvest sequence water purge, the water fill valve energizes and de-energizes by time. The water purge must be at the factory setting of 45 seconds for the water fill valve to energize during the last 15 seconds of the water purge. If it is set to less than 45 seconds, the water fill valve will not energize during the water purge.

WARNING

Disconnect the electrical power to the ice machine at the electrical disconnect before proceeding.

For your safety, and to eliminate errors, we recommend that a qualified service technician make the harvest water purge adjustment.
