HARVEST SEQUENCE WATER PURGE Q0600C/Q0800C/Q1000C/SU1000C/QDUAL
The Harvest sequence water purge adjustment may only be used when the ice machine is hooked up to special water systems, such as a de-ionized water treatment system.
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.
Important
The Harvest sequence water purge is factory-set at 45 seconds. A shorter purge setting (with standard water supplies such as city water) is not recommended. This can increase water system cleaning and sanitizing requirements.

Manitowoc’s Patented Cleanin g or San itizi ng Technology
Manitowoc ice machines include technology that allows the initiation and completion of a cleaning or sanitizing cycle at the flip of a switch. This cycle will permit cleaning or sanitizing of all surfaces that come in contact with the water distribution system. Periodic maintenance must be performed that includes sanitizing the bin (or dispenser) and adjacent surface areas, which cannot be contacted by the water distribution system.
This technology will also allow initiation and completion of a Clean or Sanitize cycle, after which the ice machine automatically starts ice making again. Refer to the cleaning or sanitizing procedure for complete details.
The AuCS
®
Accessory can be set to automatically start and finish a Clean or Sanitize cycle every 2, 4, or 12 weeks. This accessory monitors ice-making cycles and initiates a cleaning or sanitizing cycle automatically. After completion of the cleaning or sanitizing cycle, the ice machine returns to ice making automatically. Refer to Automatic Cleaning System (AuCS
®
) Accessory for further details.

ALPHASAN
The goal of AlphaSan is to keep the plastic surfaces of an ice machine cleaner, by reducing or delaying the formation of biofilm. The active ingredient in AlphaSan
is the element silver in the form of silver
ions (Ag+). AlphaSan
slowly releases silver ions via
an ion exchange mechanism. When AlphaSan
is
compounded directly into a plastic part, a controlled release of silver ions from the surface is regulated to maintain an effective concentration at or near the surface of the plastic ice machine part.
AlphaSan’s
unique ability to effectively control the
release of silver not only protects against undesired discoloration of the plastic, but also will last the life of the plastic part. Although AlphaSan helps prevent biofilm build up it does not eliminate the need for periodic cleaning and maintenance. AlphaSan
has
no adverse effect on the taste of the ice or beverage.

Q0600C/Q0800C/Q1000C/QDUAL
The water inlet valve normally does not require removal for cleaning. Follow the instructions below to determine if removal is necessary.
1. Set the ICE/OFF/CLEAN switch to OFF. Locate the water inlet (in the water area of the ice machine). It directs water into the water trough.
2. When the ice machine is off, the water inlet valve must completely stop water flow into the machine. Watch for water flow. If water flows, remove, disassemble and clean the valve.
3. When the ice machine is on, the water inlet valve must allow the proper water flow through it. Set the toggle switch to ON. Watch for water flow into the ice machine. If the water flow is slow or only trickles into the ice machine, remove, disassemble, and clean the valve.

Ice Making Sequence of Operation
Q0600C/Q0800C/Q1000C/SU1000C Initial Start-Up or Start-Up After
Automatic Shut-Off
1. Water Purge
Before the compressor starts, the water pump and water dump solenoid are energized for 45 seconds to purge the ice machine of old water. This ensures that the ice-making cycle starts with fresh water.
The cool vapor solenoid valve is also energized during the water purge, although it stays on for an additional 5 seconds (50-second total on time) during the initial refrigeration system start-up.
2. Refrigeration System Start-Up
Ice Machine Section: The liquid line solenoid valve energizes after the 45-second water purge, and remains on throughout the entire Freeze and Harvest sequences. The cool vapor solenoid valve remains on for 5 seconds during initial compressor start-up and then shuts off.
The water fill valve is energized at the same time as the liquid line solenoid valve.
CVD
®
Condensing Unit: When the refrigerant pressure is high enough to close the low-pressure control (after the cool vapor valve energizes in step 1), the contactor coil is energized and the compressor starts. The compressor and fan cycling control* are supplied with power throughout the entire Freeze and Harvest sequences. When the refrigerant pressure is high enough to close the fan cycling pressure control, the condenser fan motor starts.
*The Q0600C ice machines does not use a fan cycling
control. The compressor and the condenser fan motor are wired through the contactor. Anytime the contactor coil is energized, these components are supplied with power.
–74–
Freeze Sequence
3. Prechill
The compressor is on for 30 seconds prior to water flow to prechill the evaporator. The water fill valve remains on until the water level probe is satisfied.
4. Freeze
The water pump restarts after the 30-second prechill. An even flow of water is directed across the evaporator and into each cube cell, where it freezes. The water fill valve will cycle on, then off one more time to refill the water trough.
When suffici ent ice has forme d, the water fl ow (not the ice) contacts the ice thickness probe. After approximately 7 seconds of continual water contact, the Harvest sequence is initiated. The ice machine cannot initiate a Harvest sequence until a 6-minute freeze lock has been surpassed.
–75–
Harvest Sequence
5. Water Purge
The water pump continues to run, and the water dump valve energizes for 45 seconds to purge the water in the sump trough. The water fill valve energizes for the last 15 seconds of the 45-second water purge.
After the 45-second water purge, the water fill valve, water pump and dump valve de-energize. (Refer to “Water Purge Adjustment” for details.)
The cool vapor solenoid valve also opens at the beginning of the water purge to divert refrigerant gas into the evaporator.
When the refrigerant pressure is low enough to open the fan cycling pressure control,* the condenser fan motor stops.
*The Q0600C ice machine does not use a fan cycle control;
therefore the condenser fan motor will continue to run in the Harvest cycle.
6. Harvest
The cool vapor solenoid valve remains open and the refrigerant gas warms the evaporator causing the cubes to slide as a sheet, off the evaporator and into the storage bin. The sliding sheet of cubes swings the water curtain out, opening the bin switch.
The momentary opening and reclosing of the bin switch terminates the Harvest sequence and returns the ice machine to the Freeze sequence (steps 3-4).
–76–
Automatic Shut-Off
7. Automatic Shut-Off
Ice Machine Section: When the storage bin is full at the end of a Harvest sequence, the sheet of ice cubes fails to clear the water curtain and will hold it open. After the water curtain is held open for 7 seconds, the ice machine shuts off. The ice machine remains off for 3 minutes before it can automatically restart.
CVD
®
Condensing Unit: The liquid line solenoid valve closes, allowing the refrigeration system to pump down. When the refrigerant pressure is low enough to open the fan cycling pressure control,* the condenser fan motor stops. When the refrigerant pressure is low enough to open the low-pressure control, the contactor coil is de-energized and the compressor stops.
The ice machine remains off until enough ice has been removed from the storage bin to allow the ice to fall clear of the water curtain. As the water curtain swings back to the operating position, the bin switch recloses and the ice machine restarts (steps 1-2), provided the 3-minute delay period is complete.
*The Q0600C ice machine does not use a fan cycle control;
therefore the condenser fan motor will energize and de­energize with the compressor.

The cool vapor solenoid valves remain open, and the refrigerant gas warms each evaporator causing the cubes to slide as a sheet, off the evaporator and into the storage bin. The ice may fall first from either the right or the left evaporator, or both at the same time. The sliding sheet of cubes swings the water curtain out, opening the corresponding bin switch.
The momentary opening and closing of the bin switch de-energizes relay #2 (right) or #3 (left). Opening relay #2 or #3 de-energizes the corresponding cool vapor solenoid valve for the remainder of the Harvest sequence. The momentary opening and reclosing of both bin switches terminates the Harvest sequence and returns the ice machine to the Freeze sequence (steps 2-3).

Electrical System
COMPONENT SPECIFICATIONS AND DIAGNOSTICS CONTROL BOARD
All QuietQube® control boards incorporate the following features. Refer to “Sequence of Operation” for additional information specific to your model.
Harvest/Safety Limit Light
This light’s primary function is to be on as water contacts the ice thickness probe during the Freeze cycle, and remain on throughout the entire Harvest cycle. The light will flicker as water splashes on the probes. The light’s secondary function is to continuously flash when the ice machine is shut off on a safety limit, and to indicate which safety limit shut off the ice machine.
Freeze Time Lock-In Feature
The ice machine control system incorporates a freeze time lock-in feature. This prevents the ice machine from short cycling in and out of Harvest.
The control board locks the ice machine in the Freeze cycle for six minutes. If water contacts the ice thickness probe during these six minutes, the Harvest light will come on (to indicate that water is in contact with the probe), but the ice machine will stay in the Freeze cycle. After the six minutes are up, a Harvest cycle is initiated.
To allow the service technician to initiate a Harvest cycle without delay , this feature is not used on the first cycle after moving the toggle switch OFF and back to ICE.
Maximum Freeze Time
The control system includes a built-in safety that will automatically cycle the ice machine into Harvest after 60 minutes in the Freeze cycle.
Safety Limits
There are two safety limits that protect the ice machine if the Freeze or Harvest cycles are outside of their guidelines.
–92–
Three-Minute Delay
The three-minute delay is initiated whenever the ice machine cycles off (automatic shut-off) on a full bin.
The delay period starts when a water curtain is open for 7 continuous seconds in the Harvest cycle.
If the 3-minute delay period has expired, closure of
the water curtain will initiate an immediate start-up of a Freeze sequence.
If the water curtain closes before the 3-minute delay
period has expired, the ice machine will start a Freeze sequence immediately after the 3-minute delay period expires.
The 3-mi nute delay period is overridden when the
toggle switch is moved to the OFF position, then back to ICE.
Inputs
The control board, along with inputs, controls all electrical components, including the ice machine sequence of operation. Prior to diagnosing, you must understand how the inputs affect the control board operation. Refer to specific component specifications (inputs), wiring diagrams and ice machine sequence of operation sections for details.
As an example, refer to “Ice Thickness Probe” in the component specification section of this manual for information relating to how the probe and control board function together.
Control Board Relays
The control board relays energize and de-energize system components.
Relays are not field replaceable.
–95–
MAIN FUSE Function
The control board fuse stops ice machine operation if electrical components fail, causing high amp draw.
Specifications
The main fuse is 250 Volt, 7 amp.
Check Procedure
1. If the bin switch light is on with the water curtain closed, the fuse is good.
2. Remove the fuse. Check the resistance across the fuse with an ohmmeter.
!
Warning
High (line) voltage is applied to the control board (terminals #55 and #56) at all times. Removing the control board fuse or moving the toggle switch to OFF will not remove the power supplied to the control board.
!
Warning
Disconnect electrical power to the entire ice machine before proceeding.
Reading Result
Open (OL) Replace fuse
Closed (O) Fuse is good
–96–
BIN SWITCH Function
Movement of the water curtain controls bin switch operation. The bin switch has two main functions:
1. Terminating the Harvest cycle and returning the ice machine to the Freeze cycle. This occurs when the bin switch is opened and closed again within 7
seconds during the Harvest cycle.
2. Automatic ice machine shut-off. If the storage bin is full at the end of a Harvest cycle, the sheet of cubes fails to clear the water curtain and holds it open. After the water curtain is held open for 7 seconds, the ice machine shuts off. The ice machine remains off until enough ice is removed from the storage bin to allow the sheet of cubes to drop clear of the water curtain. As the water curtain swings back to the operating position, the bin switch closes and the ice machine restarts, provide the 3-minute delay has expired.
Specifications
The bin switch is a magnetically operated reed switch. The magnet is attached to the lower right corner of the water curtain. The switch is attached to the evaporator-mounting bracket.
The bin switch is connected to a varying D.C. voltage circuit. (Voltage does not remain constant.)
NOTE: Because of a wide variation in D.C. voltage, it is not recommended that a voltmeter be used to check bin switch operation.
Important
The water curtain must be ON (bin switc h(s) closed) to start ice making.
