C. Sequence of Operation

The steps in the sequence are as outlined below. When power is supplied, the power switch is in the "ON" position, the door switch is engaged, and the control switch is in the "ICE" position, the "POWER" LED on the control board comes on.

1. Fill Cycle

WV opens and the reservoir lls with water until UF/S closes. Note: GM will not start unless UF/S is closed. For details, see "IV. Service Diagnosis".

2. Ice Purge Cycle (60 seconds)

"GM" LED is on. WCR energizes, closing the low water safety circuit and de-energizing the WV. GM and GMPR energize. GM runs for 60 seconds to clear any ice from the evaporator.

3. Freeze Cycle

"COMP", "GM" LEDs are on. Comp and FMS energize. As the water in the evaporator cools, ice starts forming within 4 to 6 minutes. This time frame depends on the inlet water and ambient temperature conditions. UF/S and LF/S operate WV as needed to continue the ice making process. This continues until BC shuts the icemaker down or power is turned off to the icemaker.

4. Drain Cycle

12 hour DT activates, "FLUSH" LED is on after 150 second shutdown sequence. Comp and FMS de-energize 90 seconds after the 12 hour DT activates, GMPR and GM de-energize 60 seconds later. DV then energizes and remains energized for 20 minutes.

5. Shutdown

BC is activated and a 150 second shutdown sequence begins. After BC has been open for 90 seconds, Comp and FMS de-energize, AM energizes for 0.6 seconds, and 60 seconds later GM de-energizes.

Components Energized when the Control Switch is in the "DRAIN" Position
The "DRAIN" position on the control switch is used when cleaning and sanitizing the unit. This allows
cleaner and sanitizer to drain from the reservoir and evaporator assembly. When switching to the "DRAIN"
position during the freeze cycle, the drain valve does not energize until the 150 second shutdown sequence
terminates (2. Shutdown & Restart).
Note: To bypass the 150 second shutdown sequence, move the power switch to the "OFF" position, place the
control switch in the "DRAIN" position, then move the power switch back to the "ON" position.

D. Control Board

A Hoshizaki exclusive solid-state control board is employed in DCM-500BAH, DCM-500BAH-OS, DCM-500BWH, and DCM-500BWH-OS Cubelet Icemaker / Dispensers.
All models are pretested and factory-adjusted.
CAUTION
1. Fragile, handle very carefully.
2. The control board contains integrated circuits, which are susceptible to failure due to static discharge. It is especially important to touch the metal part of the unit before handling or replacing the board.
3. Do not touch the electronic devices on the control board or the back of the control board to prevent damage to the control board.
4. Do not change wiring and connections. Especially, never misconnect terminals.
5. Always replace the whole control board if it goes bad.
6. Do not short out power supply to test for voltage.

4. Control Board Check Procedure

Before replacing a control board that does not show a visible defect and that you suspect is bad, always conduct the following check procedure. This procedure will help you verify your diagnosis.
a) Power Supply
1. Move the control switch to the "ICE" position. The "POWER" LED should come on. If the "POWER" LED is off, check that the power supply is on, the power switch is in the "ON" position, the door switch is engaged, and the control switch is in the "ICE" position. Check the transformer 10.5V secondary circuit and fuse. If the 10.5V secondary circuit (K4 pins 1 and 2) has proper voltage and the "POWER" LED is off, the control board is bad and should be replaced.
If the secondary circuit does not have proper voltage, see "IV.C.1.[1] The icemaker will not start (Fill Cycle)" for further details.
b) Ice Making Components
1. Conrm the reservoir is full of water. If no water is in the reservoir, make sure that the control switch is not in the "DRAIN" position and that the unit is not in the 12 hour drain cycle. Also check the water supply line, water shutoff valve, and water lters. In the ll cycle, the "POWER" LED is the only LED lit on the control board. If no water is lling the reservoir, check for 24V at connector K2 terminal 7 to neutral and connector K3 (DBU) to neutral. If there is 24V at connector K2 terminal 7 to neutral and no voltage at K3 (DBU) to neutral, the control board is bad and should be replaced. See "IV.C.1.[1] The icemaker will not start (Fill Cycle)" for further details.
2. When the reservoir is full, the "GM" LED comes on and the gear motor starts. If the "GM" LED does not come on or the gear motor does not start, check that the following safety circuits are closed: a) high pressure switch (DCM-500BAH and DCM­500BWH, connector K4 terminals 9 and 10, DCM-500BAH-OS and DCM-500BWH-OS, connector K4 terminals 5 and 6), b) low water safety/bin control/ice making switch circuit (connector K4 terminals 3 and 4). Next, check for 115/120V at connector K1 "COM" and K1 "NO" on the control board to neutral. If the "GM" LED is on and there is voltage at K1 "COM" to neutral and no voltage at K1 "NO" to neutral, the control board is bad and should be replaced. See wiring diagram "III.C.2. Ice Purge Cycle" for further details.
18
Page 19
3. 60 seconds after the "GM" LED comes on, the "COMP" LED comes on, and the compressor and fan motor start. If the "COMP" LED does not come on 60 seconds after the gear motor starts, check that the gear motor protect relay contacts (connector K2 terminals 1 and 2) have closed. If the "COMP" LED is on and the compressor and fan motor did not start, check for 115/120V at X2 (LBU) and X2 (BR) on the control board to neutral. If the "COMP" LED is on and there is voltage at X2 (BR) to neutral and no voltage at X2 (LBU) to neutral, the control board is bad and should be replaced. See wiring diagram "III.C.3. Freeze Cycle" for further details.
c) Dispensing Components DCM-500BAH, DCM-500BWH
1. Ice Dispense "Continuous": Pressing the ice dispense switch closes terminals 6 and 5 at the K4 connector. The "DM" LED comes on and the dispensing motor energizes. If the "DM" LED does not turn on, check continuity through the ice dispense switch and the dispense mode switch. If the LED is on and the dispensing motor does not start, check for 115/120V at connector K2 terminals 3 and 6 to a neutral. With voltage at terminal 3 and not at terminal 6, the control board is bad and should be replaced. Note: The agitating motor will operate .6 seconds every 12 seconds of accumulative
dispense time. See "III.D.1. Continuous Dispense."
2. Ice Dispense "Portion": Pressing the ice dispense switch closes terminals 6 and 7 at the K4 connector. The "DM" LED comes on and the dispinsing motor energizes. If the "DM" LED does not turn on, check continuity through the ice dispense switch and the dispense mode switch. If the LED is on and the dispensing motor does not start, check for 115V at connector K2 terminals 3 and 6 to a neutral. With voltage at terminal 3 and not at terminal 6, the control board is bad and should be replaced. Note: The agitating motor will operate .6 seconds every 12 seconds of accumulative
dispense time. See "III.D.2. Portion Dipsense."

E. Float Switch

Depending on local water conditions, scale may build up on the oat switch. Scale on the switch can cause the oats to stick. In this case, the oat switch should be cleaned and checked. First, remove the switch from the water tank. Soak the switch assembly in ice machine cleaner. While not necessary, the oats can be removed from the shaft during cleaning. If you remove them, note that the blue oat is on top. The oats must be installed with the magnets inside them towards the top of the switch. Installing the oats upside down will affect the timing of the oat switch operation. Once clean, rinse and wipe the cleaner off. Next, check the switch with an ohm meter. This oat switch has three wires (the black wire is common) and two separate switches. Check the upper switch by ohming out the black and red wires. When the oat is up, the switch should be closed. Check the lower switch by ohming out the black and blue wires in the same manner. If either switch fails, the assembly should be replaced.

IV. Service Diagnosis

A. Diagnostic Procedure

This diagnostic procedure is a sequence check that allows you to diagnose the electrical system and components. Before proceeding, check for correct installation, adequate water supply (minimum of 10 PSIG, maximum of 113 PSIG) and proper voltage per unit nameplate. Always choose a white neutral wire to establish a good neutral connection when checking voltages. LEDs on the control board correspond to the components as they energize.
1) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position, then turn off the power supply. Remove the upper and lower front panels. Conrm the power switch is in the "ON" position and the door switch is engaged.
2) Turn on the power supply, then move the control switch to the "ICE" position. The "POWER" LED is on. The "POWER" LED will not come on if the door switch is not engaged.
3) Fill Cycle – The inlet water valve energizes. The reservoir lls. The lower oat switch closes. Nothing occurs at this time. The reservoir continues to ll until the upper oat switch closes, energizing the water control relay, which closes the low water safety circuit and de-energizes the inlet water valve. Diagnosis: Check that the inlet water valve lls the reservoir. If not, check for water supply line shut-off valve closed, clogged water lters, clogged inlet water valve screen, power circuit to the inlet water valve (power switch, door switch, power protect relay contacts, transformer, fuses, high pressure switch, bin control, control switch, oat switch, water control relay contacts), and the coil on the inlet water valve. Check that the inlet water valve shuts off when the upper oat switch closes. If not, check the oat switch, water control relay, and inlet water valve.
4) Ice Purge Cycle – "GM" LED is on (60 second short cycle protection). The 60 second timer starts, the gear motor protect relay and gear motor energize. Diagnosis: Check that the gear motor starts. If not, check that the water control relay is energized (inlet water valve should be closed). Check the low water safety circuit on the water control relay (terminals 4 and 6), check for 115/120V at the K1 connector "COM" terminal to neutral and "NO" terminal to neutral on the control board (see wiring diagram), check the gear motor fuse (overload protector), thermal protector, gear motor capacitor, and motor windings. If the gear motor starts, but the auger does not turn, check the gear motor coupling between the auger and the gear motor. If the compressor starts at the same time the gear motor starts, check the X2 compressor relay on the control board.
5) Freeze Cycle – "GM", "COMP" LED are on. The compressor and fan motor energize, the gear motor protect relay, gear motor, and water control relay remain energized. Ice production begins 4 to 6 minutes after the compressor and fan motor start depending on ambient and water temperature conditions. Diagnosis: Check that the compressor and fan motor are running. If not, check for voltage on and to the compressor (X2 relay on the control board). Check that the gear motor protect relay circuit terminals 3 and 5 are closed, check the compressor internal overload (thermal protector), the compressor capacitors, fan capacitor, and voltage to the fan motor.
36
Page 37
6) Rell /Low Water Safety – As ice is produced, the water level in the reservoir drops. As the water level drops, the upper and lower oat switches open. First, the upper oat switch opens. Nothing occurs at this time. When the lower oat switch opens, rell begins. The water control relay de-energizes, the 90 second low water safety timer begins, and the inlet water valve energizes. The compressor, fan motor, and gear motor continue to run. When the upper oat switch closes, the water control relay energizes, the 90 second low water safety timer terminates, and the inlet water valve de-energizes. If the upper oat switch fails to close within 90 seconds after the inlet water valve energizes, a 150 second shutdown sequence begins. 90 seconds after the 90 second low water safety timer is complete, the compressor and fan motor de-energize, 60 seconds later the gear motor de-energizes. The inlet water valve continues until the upper oat switch closes. Diagnosis – Check that the reservoir lls. If not, check the water supply line, clogged water lters, dirty or sticking oat switches, inlet water valve screen, water control relay contacts, voltage to the inlet water valve, and inlet water valve solenoid or drain valve leaking.
7) Drain Cycle – "FLUSH" LED is on. 12 hour timer activates the ush cycle and a 150 second shutdown sequence begins. 90 seconds after the 12 hour timer activates, the compressor and fan motor de-energize, 60 seconds later the gear motor de-energizes. The drain valve then energizes and remains energized for 20 minutes. Once the 20 minute drain timer is complete, the 12 hour drain cycle timer resets and the ll cycle begins.
8) Shutdown – The bin lls and activates the bin control. A 150 second shutdown sequence begins. After the bin control has been open for 90 seconds, the compressor and fan motor stop, the agitating motor energizes for 0.6 seconds, and 60 seconds later the gear motor stops. Diagnosis: Check that the bin control paddle is activated and that the bin control switch opens. If the compressor and gear motor fail to stop, check the bin control (proximity) switch and control board relays.

B. Ice Production Check

To check production, prepare a bucket or pan to catch the ice and a set of scales to weigh the ice. After the icemaker has operated for 10 to 20 minutes, catch the ice production for 10 minutes. Weigh the ice to establish the batch weight. Multiply the batch weight by 144 for the total production in 24 hours. When conrming production or diagnosing low production, see "III.E. Performance Data."

V. Removal and Replacement of Components

IMPORTANT
1. Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews are securely in place after the equipment is serviced.
2. The Polyol Ester (POE) oils used in R-404A units can absorb moisture quickly. Therefore it is important to prevent moisture from entering the system when replacing or servicing parts.
3. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.
4. Do not leave the system open for longer than 15 minutes when replacing or servicing parts.

A. Service for Refrigerant Lines

WARNING
Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.

1. Refrigerant Recovery

The icemaker is provided with refrigerant access valves. Using proper refrigerant practices, recover the refrigerant from the access valves and store it in an approved container. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.

2. Brazing

WARNING
1. R-404A itself is not ammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to 176°F (80°C).
2. R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high temperatures (open ames), R-404A can be decomposed to form hydrouoric acid and carbonyl uoride both of which are hazardous.
3. Always recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
4. Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing arsenic.
5. Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
46
Page 47
1) Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made. Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the refrigerant ow.
2) Braze all ttings while purging with nitrogen gas owing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
3) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.

3. Evacuation and Recharge (R-404A)

1) Attach a vacuum pump to the system. Be sure to connect the charging hoses to both high and low-side access valves.
IMPORTANT
The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for current refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for POE oils.
2) Turn on the vacuum pump. Open the service manifold valves. Never allow the oil in the vacuum pump to ow backwards.
3) Allow the vacuum pump to pull down to a 29.9" Hg vacuum. Evacuating period depends on pump capacity.
4) Close the low-side valve and high-side valve on the service manifold.
5) Disconnect the vacuum pump and attach a refrigerant service cylinder to the high-side line. Remember to loosen the connection and purge the air from the hose. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. Hoshizaki recommends only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets ARI Standard No. 700-88 be used.
6) A liquid charge is recommended for charging an R-404A system. Invert the service cylinder and place it on scales. Open the high-side valve on the service manifold.
7) Allow the system to charge with liquid until the proper charge weight is met.
8) If necessary, add any remaining charge to the system through the low-side. Use a throttling valve or liquid dispensing device to add the remaining liquid charge through the low-side access port with the unit running.
9) Close the service manifold valves and disconnect the service manifold hoses.
10) Cap the access valves to prevent a possible leak.
47
Page 48

B. Removal and Replacement of Compressor

IMPORTANT
Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.
Note: When replacing a compressor with a defective winding, be sure to install the
new start capacitor and start relay supplied with the replacement compressor. Due to the ability of the POE oil in the compressor to absorb moisture quickly, the compressor must not be opened more than 15 minutes for replacement or service. Do not mix lubricants of different compressors even if both are charged with R-404A, except when they use the same lubricant.
1) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position, then turn off the power supply. Remove the front and top panels, then move the power switch to the "OFF" position.
2) Remove the apron panel, then remove the right side panel.
3) Disconnect the drip tray hose from the tee. Remove the four screws securing the drip tray, then remove the drip tray and hose.
4) Recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container.
5) Remove the terminal cover on the compressor and disconnect the compressor wiring.
6) Remove the discharge, suction, and process pipes.
7) Remove the compressor hold-down bolts, washers, and rubber grommets.
8) Remove the compressor. Unpack the new compressor package.
9) Attach the rubber grommets of the prior compressor to the new compressor.
10) Place the compressor in position and secure it using the bolts and washers.
11) Remove the drier, then place the new drier in position.
12) Remove plugs from the suction, discharge, and process pipes.
13) Braze all ttings while purging with nitrogen gas owing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
14) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
15) Evacuate the system, and charge it with refrigerant. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge.
16) Connect the terminals and replace the terminal cover in its correct position.
17) Replace the drip tray and drip tray hose in their correct positions. Secure the hose to the tee. Pour water into the drip tray and check for leaks.
18) Move the power switch to the "ON" position, then replace the panels in their correct positions.
19) Turn on the power supply, then move the control switch to the "ICE" position to start the automatic icemaking process.
48
Page 49

C. Removal and Replacement of Expansion Valve

IMPORTANT
Sometimes moisture in the refrigeration circuit exceeds the drier capacity and freezes up at the expansion valve. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.
1) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position, then turn off the power supply. Remove the front and top panels, then move the power switch to the "OFF" position.
2) Remove the apron panel, then remove the left side panel.
3) Recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container.
4) Disconnect the drip tray hose from the tee. Remove the four screws securing the drip tray, then remove the drip tray and hose.
5) Remove the insulation and the expansion valve bulb on the suction line.
6) Remove the expansion valve cover and disconnect the expansion valve.
7) Place the new expansion valve in position.
8) Remove the drier, then place the new drier in position.
9) Braze all ttings while purging with nitrogen gas owing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
CAUTION
Always protect the valve body by using a damp cloth to prevent the valve from overheating. Do not braze with the valve body exceeding 250°F (121°C).
10) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
11) Evacuate the system, and charge it with refrigerant. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge.
12) Attach the expansion valve bulb to the suction line in the same location as the previous bulb. The bulb should be at the 12 o'clock position on the tube. Be sure to secure the bulb with the clamp and holder and to insulate it.
13) Place the expansion valve cover in position.
14) Replace the drip tray and drip tray hose in their correct positions. Secure the hose to the tee. Pour water into the drip tray and check for leaks.
15) Move the power switch to the "ON" position, then replace the panels in their correct positions.
16) Turn on the power supply, then move the control switch to the "ICE" position to start the automatic icemaking process.

C. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage

CAUTION
When the icemaker is not used for two or three days under normal conditions, it is sufficient to only move the control switch to the "OFF" position. When storing the icemaker for extended time or in sub-freezing temperatures, turn the water off and drain out all water from the water lines and remove the ice from the storage bin. The storage bin should be cleaned and dried. Drain the icemaker water hoses using air or carbon dioxide to prevent damage at sub-freezing temperatures.
1. Remove the ice from the storage bin, drain the water system, and remove the water from the icemaker/water dispenser water supply line:
1) Close the icemaker/water dispenser water supply line shut-off valve and open the icemaker/water dispenser water supply line drain valve.
2) Move the dispense mode switch to the "CONTINUOUS" position, then dispense all of the ice from the storage bin.
3) Move the control switch to the "DRAIN" position and allow the water system to drain for 5 minutes. Note: If the unit is running, the drain valve will not open until 2.5 minutes after the
control switch is moved to the "DRAIN" position. This allows the components to cycle down.
4) Attach a compressed air or carbon dioxide supply to the icemaker/water dispenser water supply line drain valve.
5) While engaging the water dispense switch, blow out the water dispense valve using the compressed air or carbon dioxide supply. After blowing out the water dispense valve, leave the compressed air or carbon dioxide supply owing. Move the control switch to the "ICE" position to open the inlet water valve and briey blow out the valve. After blowing out the inlet water valve, move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
6) Close the icemaker/water dispenser water supply line drain valve.
7) Turn off the power supply. then remove the front panel and move the power switch to the "OFF" position.
8) Remove the front cover of the storage bin. Clean the storage bin liner and the front cover of the storage bin using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning. Replace the front cover of the storage bin and the front panel in their correct positions. Note: If your unit has a water-cooled condenser, leave the front panel off and go to the
next section.

2. On water-cooled model only, remove the water from the water-cooled condenser:
1) Make sure the control switch and the power switch are in the "OFF" position and that the power supply is off. Remove the top, apron, and left side panels.
2) Close the condenser water supply line shut-off valve and open the condenser water supply line drain valve.
3) Attach a compressed air or carbon dioxide supply to the condenser water supply line drain valve.
4) Open the water regulating valve by using a screwdriver to pry up on the spring retainer underneath the spring. While holding the valve open, blow out the condenser using the compressed air or carbon dioxide supply until water stops coming out.
5) Close the condenser water supply line drain valve.
6) Replace the panels in their correct positions.
