CS55 INITIAL START UP

1. Open water supply valve.

2. Move electrical breaker or switch to the
on position.

3. Remove front panel.

4. Check the cube size control shaft, it
should be in a preset cube size position. If
not, turn it clockwise until the unit comes
on. Note: cube size adjustments may be
required. Start with the shaft in the "mid"

position.

5. The machine will go thru a "dry" cycle,
this will take about 10 minutes. Then the
water fill and harvest cycle will begin.

6. Observe the water fill cycle:

• The water inlet valve opens.

• Incoming water flows from the valve

through the tubing to the top of the
icemaker.

• Water flows around the inverted ice

cube cups and drains through holes into
the reservoir.

• The reservoir begins to fill up with water.

• Extra water flows thru the purge valve

for 15 seconds and then the fan and
pump will stop.

• Water continues to enter the machine

and overflows a standpipe in the
reservoir and down the drain.

1

This will take about 2
the freeze cycle will begin.

7. Check the operation of the freezing cycle:

⁄2 minutes. After that

• Compressor is running.

• Water pump is spraying water through

the spray nozzels.

• Icemaking begins, the water gets very

cold, and ice begins to form in the cube
molds.

8. Check that the plastic curtain assembly
hangs down evenly in the opening and that
no large streams of water are passing
through.

December, 1987

Note: Some water will drip from the
reservoir as the machine runs. This is
normal.

9. After about 20 minutes the machine will
begin to release the ice, this is called the
harvest cycle.
Observe the first cube harvest:

• Check the size of the ice cubes.

Note: The normal size of the ice cube has
a 1/4" depression in the wide end.
If the cubes are not filled out, adjust the
machine to make larger ice cubes by
turning the cube size control shaft
clockwise.
If the cubes are overfilled, adjust the
machine to make smaller ice cubes by
turning the cube size control
counter-clockwise.
In both cases, the next cycle of cubes
harvested must be observed, and further
corrections may be needed. See page 11.
If the ice cubes are cloudy, an extreme
water condition may exist. Confirm that
they are cloudy by placing them in a glass
of cold water. If, in the water, they remain
cloudy, you may want to have the water

tested by a water treatment specialist.

If the ice cubes are cloudy only on the
bottom or in the center, the machine may
be running out of water before the end of
the freezing cycle.

10. Test the bin full shut off. To test this,
hold some ice on the bin thermostat
bracket (the stainless steel tube on the left
side of the ice storage bin). The icemaker
should stop within a few minutes of having

ice on that tube.

11. Fill out the Warranty Registration and
Customer Evaluation form, and mail both
to Scotsman.

12. Make sure the user understands the
operation and maintenance requirements
for the icemaker. Leave the service
manual and the name of the local
Scotsman service agency with the user.

BOX

CS55 HOW IT WORKS:

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

Cube Size Control

The cube size control is located in front of
the control box, behind the front panel.
The sensing capillary tube of the cube size
control is routed out of the control box into

its bulb holder on the evaporator coil. It is
a reverse acting temperature control with
double throw contacts. Turning its knob all
the way counterclockwise also shuts off the
icemaker.

The control determines the length of the

freezing cycle and correspondingly the size

of the cube. A lower setting will produce a

smaller cube, and a higher setting will

make a larger cube. The cube size control
changes its contacts when the evaporator
reaches its preset temperature, starting the
harvest cycle. When the sensing tube of
the cube size control reaches the high
preset temperature, the contacts change
again, restarting the freeze cycle.

Compressor Toggle Switch.

The compressor toggle switch is located on

the side of the control box. When moved

to the ON position, it makes a circuit to the

compressor. When moved to the OFF

position, the other components will still
operate.

Water Pump

The water pump operates during the

freezing cycle only, pumping water through

the spray nozzles into the inverted spray

cups.

Inlet Water Solenoid Valve

The water solenoid valve, located in the

back panel of the unit, is energized only

during the harvest or cleaning cycles.

When energized it allows a metered

amount of water to flow into the machine
(.21 g.p.m.) This water flows to the top of
the evaporator and then down into the
reservoir.

Water Purge Drain Valve

The purge valve opens during the harvest

cycle, and when the pump is on, water

from the pump discharge is diverted to the

drain. This flushes out the reservoir.

Bin Thermostat Control

The bin thermostat control body is located
in front of the control box just beside the
cube size control. The thermostat sensing
tube is located in the ice storage bin on the

left side wall where is automatically shuts
the icemaker off when the bin is full and
restarts when ice is removed. Factory
settings are 1 degree C (36 degrees F) cut
out and 4 degrees C (39 degrees F) cut in.
It can be adjusted by turning the
adjustment screw visible through the
control box cover.

Hot Gas Valve Assembly

The hot gas valve assembly is comprised

of two parts, the valve body and the coil.

These parts are located on the discharge

line of the compressor and are activated by

the cube size control (harvest cycle).
When the coil of the hot gas valve is
energized, it magnetically lifts the plunger
in the hot gas valve body. This allows hot
refrigerant gas to by-pass the condenser
and go directly to the evaporator.

Spray Platform and Chute

The spray system used on this unit is of

the stationary type. The water is forced by

the water pump into the platform chamber

and sprayed into the inverted cup molds

through a set of six spray nozzles.

Fan Motor

The fan motor is electrically connected

through the cube size control and runs only

during the freezing cycle.

Hermetic Motor Compressor

The compressor is a vapor pump, forcing

refrigerant gas throughout the refrigeration

system.

DRAINS

CS55: HOW IT WORKS:

Freezing cycle

The refrigeration process creates cold
temperatures within the evaporator coils
and removes heat from the water sprayed
up into the inverted ice cube cups. When

enough heat is removed, the water
changes into ice, and forms where it is the
coldest: in the ice cube cups.

Minerals contained in the supply water will

not freeze and are drained away. Mostly

pure water will be frozen into the ice cubes.

WATER

During the freezing cycle, the compressor,
fan motor, and water pump are operating.
Water is continuously freezing or being
sprayed and recirculated. When

evaporator temperature is lowered to the
cold temperature setting of the cube size
control, it ends the freezing cycle and
starts the harvest cycle.

VALVE, OPEN

DURING

The hot gas

the evaporator.
The inlet water
valve opens and
a fresh supply of
water flows to
the top of the
evaporator and
then drains into
the reservoir.

The ice cubes

are released

from the inverted cube cups in the

evaporator by the warming effect of the hot

refrigerant gas condensing in the
evaporator tubing, plus the incoming water
flowing around the inverted cups. The
released ice cubes drop onto the spray

platform and
through the
curtain assembly
into the ice
storage bin.

The cube size
control thermostat
senses the
warmer

temperatures of
the harvest cycle,
and at a preset
temperature,
opens the circuit
to the solenoid of
the hot gas valve,
and the inlet water
valve. Both
valves close,
incoming water
stops and hot gas
is diverted back to
the condenser.
The harvest cycle
is complete, and
the freezing cycle

restarts.

The automatic icemaking process
continues until the bin is full of ice, and the
bin thermostat senses a colder
temperature.
The bin thermostat then opens the circuit to
all components and the automatic
icemaking process stops.

CS55 HOW IT WORKS:

REFRIGERATION

FREEZE CYCLE

The ice cubes are formed in an inverted
mold that is refrigerated.
The refrigeration process begins at the
compressor. There, refrigerant vapor is
compressed and flows from the
compressor through the discharge line as

a high temperature, high pressure gas. In
the discharge line there is a strainer with
two outlets, one leads to the condenser,
and one to a solenoid valve. Because the
solenoid valve is closed, the gas flows to
the condenser, where heat is transferred
from the refrigerant to the air passing
through the condenser. The refrigerant then
condenses into a high pressure liquid.

From the condenser, the liquid refrigerant
flows through the liquid line, and the liquid
line filter-drier. After the filter drier, the
liquid refrigerant enters the metering

device, a capillary tube. After passing the
restriction of the capillary tube, the
refrigerant enters an area of relative low
pressure, the evaporator. In the tubing of
the evaporator, the liquid refrigerant
expands and evaporates, absorbing heat
from the evaporator tubing and anything in
contact with it such as water sprayed
against it.

The refrigerant, now a low pressure, low

temperature vapor, flows into the

accumulator, which traps excess liquid

refrigerant. The vapor, now primarily a gas,

goes through the suction line tube to the
compressor where the cycle is repeated.

REFRIGERATION

HARVEST CYCLE

(When the cubes are released)
The ice cubes have been formed in an
inverted mold that was refrigerated.
Now the refrigeration system will change to
warm the cube mold and release the cubes.
The process begins at the compressor.
There, refrigerant vapor is compressed and
flows from the compressor through the
discharge line as a high temperature, high

pressure gas. Before the gas gets to the
condenser,it goes through a strainer, the
strainer outlet is connected to two tubes,
one of which leads to an electric valve, the
hot gas solenoid. When this valve opens,

the refrigerant gas follows the path of least
resistance and flows through the tubing
from the hot gas valve to the evaporator,
where the ice cubes are frozen.

At the evaporator, the high temperature
gases are cooled by the cold temperatures
of the cube mold, and condense into liquid,
transferring heat to the mold which warms
up and releases the cubes.
The refrigerant, now a low pressure, low
temperature vapor, flows into the
accumulator, which traps excess liquid
refrigerant. The vapor, now primarily a gas,
goes through the suction line tube to the

compressor where the cycle is repeated.

CS55 MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

A Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any
company’s business. In order to receive the best return for that investment, it MUST receive
periodic maintenance.
It is the USER’S RESPONSIBILITY to see that the unit is properly maintained. It is always
preferable, and less costly in the long run, to avoid possible down time by keeping it clean;
adjusting it as needed; and by replacing worn parts before they can cause failure. The
following is a list of recommended maintenance that will help keep the machine running with
a minimum of problems.
Maintenance and Cleaning should be scheduled at a minimum of twice per year.

General

The periods and procedures for
maintenance and cleaning are given as a
guide. Cleaning will vary depending upon
local water conditions and the amount of
ice used. Each icemaker must be

maintained individually, in accordance with
its own requirements.

Icemaker

The following should be scheduled at least
two times per year on this icemaker. Call
your local Scotsman Service Agency.

1. Shut off water supply to the icemaker.

2. Disconnect the water inlet tube from the
connection at the back of the icemaker,
and check the screen at that point. If very
dirty, carefully pull the screen out and clean
it. Reassemble water line to icemaker.

3. Open the water shut off valve.

4. Unplug the power cord to disconnect
electrical power to the icemaker.

5. Remove the front panel.

6. Clean the air-cooled condenser fins using
a vacuum, whisk broom, brush, or if
needed, coil cleaner. The icemaking
capacity of this machine is reduced by a
dirty condenser coil.

7. Remove the ice from the bin.

8. Remove curtain by pulling forward on the
left end, and then pulling the curtain to the
left and out of the machine.

9. Lift up spray platform, locate stand pipe
to the right of the opening, and pull it out to
drain the reservoir. Replace the standpipe,
spray platform, and curtain.

10. Mix approximately 3 ounces of
Scotsman Ice Machine Cleaner with 1.5
quarts of hot tap water, and pour this
solution into the reservoir at the curtain
base.

11. Plug the icemaker back in, and allow it
to operate for at least 20 minutes. Then
switch the cleaning toggle switch to the
"cleaning" position for about three minutes
to release all the ice cubes from their cups.

13. Switch the cleaning toggle switch to the
"operation" position, and allow the machine
to run for 30 minutes or until all the acid
taste is gone from the ice being produced.

14. Pour hot water into the bin to melt the
ice produced during cleaning, and to clean
out the drain. Wipe the interior of the bin
with mild soap and hot water, rinse with
cold water.
Caution: Do not use the ice produced
during cleaning, as it may have a strong
acid content.

15. Replace the front panel.
