Electrical Sequence:
The machine uses a temperature initiated, timed
cycle to make ice.
A closed bin thermostat connects power to the
compressor and electronic timer. The timer NO
contacts close, connecting power to the water and
hot gas solenoids.
The compressor starts, the inlet water solenoid
valve opens and fills the reservoir. The harvest
timer starts. At the end of the pre-set harvest time,
the timer will open the NO contacts, stopping the
inlet water valve and hot gas valve. At the same
time, it closes the NC contacts, powering the fan
and pump motors. This is the beginning of the
freeze cycle.
The freeze cycle continues until the cube size
contacts close, this starts a freeze timer. No other
changes occur until the freeze timer expires, when
the NC contacts open and the NO contact close,
starting the harvest cycle.
The harvest cycle is time controlled. At the end of
the harvest cycle the unit returns to a freeze cycle.
Bin control.
The machine's on and off modes are regulated by a
bin thermostat. The cap tube for the bin thermostat
is in the tube that holds the scoop. The machine
will only begin ice making when the thermostat's
contacts close. The machine will stop ice making
whenever the bin thermostat contacts open.
