GENERAL INFORMATION AND INSTALLATION

9. See data plate on the rear side of the unit and check that local main voltage corresponds with the voltage specified on it.

CAUTION. Incorrect voltage supplied to the icemaker will void your parts replacement program.

10. Remove the manufacturer’s registration card from the inside of the User Manual and fillin all parts including: Model and Serial Number taken from the data plate. Forward the completed self-addressed registration card to the Factory.

C. LOCATION AND LEVELLING

WARNING. Ice cubers dispenser is designed for indoor installation only. Extended periods of operation at temperatures exceeding the following limitations will constitute misuse under the terms of the Manu-facturer’s Limited Warranty resulting in LOSS of warranty coverage.

1. Position the unit in the selected permanent location. Criteria for selection of location include:

a) Minimum room temperature 10°C (50°F)

and maximum room temperature 40°C (100°F).

b) Water inlet temperatures: minimum 5°C

(40°F) and maximum 35°C (90°F).

c) Well ventilated location for air cooled

models.

d) Service access: adequate space must be left for all service connections through the rear of the ice maker. A minimum clearance of 15 cm (6") must be left at the sides of the unit for routing cooling air drawn into and exhausted out of the compartment to maintain proper condensing operation of air cooled models.

2. Level the unit in both the left to right and front to rear directions.

D. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

See data plate for current requirements to determine wire size to be used for electrical connections. Ice dispenser requires a solid earth wire. It is supplied from the factory completely prewired and require only electrical power connections to the wire cord provided at rear of the unit.

Page 6

Make sure that the ice machine is connected to its own circuit and individually fused (see data plate for fuse size). The maximum allowable voltage variation should not exceed -10% and +10% of the data plate rating. Low voltage can cause faulty functioning and may be responsible for serious damage to the overload switch and motor windings.

NOTE.

All external wiring should conform to national, state and local standards and regulations.

Check voltage on the line and the ice maker’s data plate before connecting the unit.

E. WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN

CONNECTIONS

GENERAL

When choosing the water supply for the ice cuber consideration should be given to:

a) Length of run b) Water clarity and purity c) Adequate water supply pressure

Since water is the most important single ingredient in producting ice you cannot emphasize too much the three items listed above. Low water pressure, below 1 bar may cause malfunction of the ice maker unit. Water containing excessive minerals will tend to produce cloudy coloured ice cubes, plus scale build-up on parts of the water system.

WATER SUPPLY

Connect the 3/4" male fitting of the solenoid water inlet valve, using the flexible tube supplied, to the cold water supply line with regular plumbing fitting and a shut-off valve installed in an accessible position between the water supply line and the unit. If water contains a high level of impurities, it is advisable to consider the use of an appropriate water filter or conditioner.

WATER DRAIN

The recommended drain tube is a plastic or flexible tube with 18 mm (3/4") I.D. which runs to an open trapped and vented drain. When the drain is a long run, allow 3 cm pitch per meter (1/4" pitch per foot). A vent at the unit drain connection is also required for proper sump drainage.

WATER DRAIN - WATER COOLED MODELS

The recommended drain tube is a plastic or flexible tube with 18 mm (3/4") I.D. which runs to an open trapped and vented drain.

NOTE.

The water supply and the water drain must be installed to conform with the local code. In some case a licensed plumber and/ or a plumbing permit is required.

F. FINAL CHECK LIST

1. Is the unit in a room where ambient temperatures are within a minimum of 10°C (50°F) even in winter months?

2. Is there at least a 15 cm (6") clearance around the unit for proper air circulation?

3. Is the unit level? (IMPORTANT)

4. Have all the electrical and plumbing connections been made, and is the water supply shut-off valve open?

5. Has the voltage been tested and checked against the data plate rating?

6. Has the water supply pressure been checked to ensure a water pressure of at least 1 bar (14 psi).

7. Check all refrigerant lines and conduit lines to guard against vibrations and possible failure.

8. Have the bolts holding the compressor down been checked to ensure that the compressor is snugly fitted onto the mounting pads?

9. Have the bin liner and cabinet been wiped clean?

10. Has the owner/user been given the User Manual and been instructed on the importance of periodic maintenance checks?

11. Has the Manufacturer’s registration card been filled in properly? Check for correct model and serial number against the serial plate and mail the registration card to the factory.

12. Has the owner been given the name and the phone number of the authorized Service Agency serving him?

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

START UP

After having correctly installed the cubers dispenser, completed the plumbing and electrical connections, perform the following “Start-up” procedure.

A. Remove top and upper front panel to be sure that the tapes securing the curtain and the spray platen to the evaporator chamber have been removed.

B. Withdraw the condenser air filter then remove the unit front panel and locate the cleaning switch on the control box.

C. Set the cleaning switch in the cleaning position. This will close the electrical circuit to the water inlet valve and to the hot gas valve

D. Turn ON the main switch. Unit will start up in charging cycle mode. During this cycle the components energized are:

WATER INLET SOLENOID VALVE HOT GAS SOLENOID VALVE

The Water pump and the Fan motor in the air cooled versions, are also in operation.

E. Let unit stay in charging cycle for about three/four minutes till water is coming out from the drain hose, then move the cleaning switch to the operation position.

NOTE.

During the charging cycle, the water inlet solenoid valve is energized. The water flows through the valve to the back side of the evaporator platen and then down to fill up the icemaker sump for the next freezing cycle.

OPERATIONAL CHECKS F. The unit now starts its first freezing cycle

with the following components in operation:

COMPRESSOR WATER PUMP FAN MOTOR in air cooled version

G. Check to see through the ice discharge

opening that the spray system is correctly seated and that the water jets uniformely reach the interior of the inverted cup molds; also make sure that the plastic curtain is hanging freely and there is not excessive water spilling through it.

H. The ice making process takes place thereby, with the water sprayed into the molds that gets gradually refrigerated by the heat exchanged with the refrigerant flowing into the evaporator serpentine.

I. When the evaporator temperature reaches a preset value the evaporator thermostat or cube size control changes its contacts; the freezing cycle ends and starts the defrost or harvest cycle. Freezing time will range between 20 and 22 minutes in a 21°C ambient temperature. Longer time for temperature above, shorter when below. Average complete cycle range is about 23 to 25 minutes.

J. Check, during the first defrost/harvest cycle, that the incoming water flows correctly into the sump in order to re-fill it and the surplus overflows through the overflow drain tube.

K. Check the texture of ice cubes just released. Right size must have a small depression (about 5-6 mm) in their crown.

If not, wait for the second defrost/harvest cycle before performing any adjustment.

L. If required, the length of the freezing cycle can be modified by turning the knob of the cube size control or evaporator thermostat located in front of the control box until the desired size is achieved. If the ice cubes are shallow and cloudy, it is possible that the ice maker runs short of water during the end of the freezing cycle or, the quality of the supplied water requires the use of an appropriate water filter or conditioner.

M. During the defrost or harvest cycle hold a handful of ice cubes against the bulb of the storage bin thermostat; the icemaker switch OFF in about one-two minutes. Take out the ice from the storage bin thermostat. The ice maker should restart automatically in three-four minutes.

NOTE.

The bin thermostat is factory set at

1°C (35°F) OUT and 4°C (39°F) IN.

N. Re-fit dispenser panels then instruct the owner/user on the general operation, and about the cleaning require.

COMPONENTS DESCRIPTION

A. WATER PUMP

The water pump operates continually throughout the freezing cycle. The pump primes the water from the sump to the spray system and through the spray nozzles sprays it into the inverted cup molds to be frozen into crystal clear ice cubes.

B. WATER INLET SOLENOID VALVE -

3/4 MALE FITTING

The water inlet solenoid valve is energized only during the defrost cycle. When energized it allows a metered amount of incoming water to flow over the evaporator cavity to assist the hot gas in defrosting the ice cubes. The water running over the evaporator cavity drops by gravity, through the dribbler holes of the platen, into the sump. On water cooled versions the water inlet solenoid valve has one inlet and two outlets with two separate solenoids energized the first (ice productioon) by the contacts 3-2 of the evaporator thermostat and the second (water cooled condenser) by a specific hi pressure control.

C. HOT GAS SOLENOID VALVE

The hot gas solenoid valve consists basically in two parts: the valve body and the valve coil. Located on the hot gas line, this valve is energized by the contacts 3-2 of the evaporator thermostat during the defrost cycle. During the defrost cycle the hot gas valve coil is activated so to attract the hot gas valve piston in order to give way to the hot gas discharged from compressor to flow directly into the evaporator serpentine to defrost the formed ice cubes.

D. BIN THERMOSTAT

The bin thermostat control body is located in the front of control box behind the front louvered panel. The thermostat sensing tube is located into a bulb holder on the side wall of the ice storage bin where it automatically shuts the icemaker OFF when in contact with the ice and re-starts the icemaker when the ice is removed. Factory settings are 1°C (35°F) OUT and 4°C (39°F) IN.

E. CUBE SIZE CONTROL (EVAPORATOR

THERMOSTAT)

The cube size control (evaporator thermostat) body is located in the front of control box behind the front louvered panel; it’s basically a reverse acting temperature control which closes the contacts 3-2 when its temperature decreases and closes the opposite contacts 3-4 when the temperature rises.

The thermostat sensing bulb is located into a plastic tube (bulb holder) secured by two clips directly to the evaporator serpentine. This control determines the length of the freezing cycle and correspondingly the size of the cubes. A lower setting will produce a larger cube (oversize) while a higher setting a smaller cuber (shallow size). When closed on contacts 3-2 it activates the defrost or harvest cycle components. The cube size control is set up in the factory (knob in the black dot position) and doesn't require any adjustment when the ambient temperature remains between 15 and 30°C (60 and 90°F).

F. FAN MOTOR (Air cooled version)

The fan motor is electrically connected in parallel to the water pump and it operates continuously only during the freezing cycle keeping the proper head pressure by circulating air through the condenser fins.

G. COMPRESSOR

The hermetic compressor is the heart of the refrigerant system and it is used to circulate and retrieve the refrigerant throughout the entire system. It compresses the low pressure refrigerant vapor causing its temperature to rise and become high pressure hot vapor (hot gas) which is then released through the discharge valve.

H. WATER SPRAY SYSTEM

Through its nozzles it sprays the water in each individual cup to be frozen into ice.

I. DISPENSING PUSH BUTTON

Located at upper right side of the dispensing frame, it energizes the auger drive motor when pushed.

J. CLEANING SWITCH

Located on the bottom side of the control box is used to energize the water inlet and the hot gas valves so to charge the water into the sump of the machine when neaded.

K. HI PRESSURE CONTROL

(Water cooled version)

Used only on the water cooled versions it operates to keep between 7 and 10 bars (100 ÷ 140 psig)

the hi-side or discharge pressure of the refrigerant system by energizing the coil of the water inlet solenoid valve that control the cooling water flow to the condenser.

L. CONDENSER AIR FILTER

(Air cooled version)

Located in front of the air cooled condenser can be removed by withdrawing it through the opening of the front panel for cleaning or replacing. A lower plastic guide, installed inside the unit, is used for the correct sliding and location of the air filter.

M. SAFETY HI TEMPERATURE

THERMOSTAT

Located on the bottom part of the control box it is a manual reset switch that trips OFF the operation of the machine when its bulb (located on the liquid line just before the drier) reaches the temperature of 70°C (160°F).

N. AUGER DRIVE MOTOR

The Auger Motor is located behind the upper front panel and is used to move the ice cubes towards the dispensing chute placed on the upper side of the dispensing system. Attivation of the same is by push button at dispensing chute frame.

O. HI PRESSURE CONTROL

(Water cooled version)

Used only on 21-31-40-50 water cooled versions it operates to keep between 8.5 and 10 bars (120 ÷ 140 psig) the hi-side or discharge pressure of the refrigerant system by energizing the coil of the water inlet solenoid valve that control the cooling water flow to the condenser.

P. HI PRESSURE CONTROL

(Water cooled version)

Used only on the water cooled versions it operates to keep between 7 and 10 bars (100 ÷ 140 psig) the hi-side or discharge pressure of the refrigerant system by energizing the coil of the water inlet solenoid valve that control the cooling water flow to the condenser.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

A. GENERAL

The periods and the procedures for maintenance and cleaning are given as guides and are not to be construed as absolute or invariable. Cleaning, especially, will vary depending upon local water and ambient conditions and the ice volume produced; and, each icemaker must be maintened individually, in accordance with its particular location requirements.

B. ICEMAKER

The following maintenance should be scheduled at least two times per year on these icemakers.

1. Check and clean the water line strainer.

2. Check that the icemaker is levelled in side to side and in front to rear directions.

3. Check for water leaks and tighten drain line connections. Pour water down bin drain line to be sure that drain line is open and clear.

4. Check size, condition and texture of ice cubes. Perform adjustment of cube size control as required.

5. Check the bin thermostat to test shut-off. Put a showelfull of ice cubes in contact with the bin thermostat bulb for at least one minute. This should cause the ice maker to shut off. Within few seconds after the removal of the ahowelfull of ice from bin thermostat bulb, the icemaker restarts.

NOTE. Within minutes after the ice is removed from the bulb holder tube, the sensing bulb inside the tube will warm up and cause the icemaker to restart. This control is factory set and should not be reset until testing is performed.

6. Check for refrigerant leaks.

C. CLEAN - REPLACE OF AIR

CONDENSER FILTER

1. Withdraw the air filter from the front through

the opening of the front panel.

2. Blow pressurised air on the opposite direction of the condenser air flow so to remove the dust accumulated.

3. If pressurised air is not available, use tap water always in the counter flow air diretcion. Once cleaned shake it so to remove most of the accumulated water, then dry it using an hair dryer.

NOTE. In case the air filter strainer is damaged replace it with a new one.

4. Install it again by pushing it through the front panel opening.

D. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS OF

WATER SYSTEM

1. Remove the front and top panels to gain access either to the control box and to the evaporator.

2. Make sure that all ice cubes have been released from their cups, then switch OFF the machine.

3. Scoop out all the ice cubes stored into the bin in order to prevent them from being contaminated with the cleaning solution.

Page 19

7. Using a bottle, poor fresh water into the bottom of the sump/freezing chamber to clean out most of scale deposit.

8. Install again the spray platen, the curtain as well as the bottom plastic cup.

9. Prepare the cleaning solution by diluting in a plastic container two liters of warm water (45°-50°C) with 0,2 liters of Ice Machine Cleaner.

WARNING. The SCOTSMAN Ice Machine Cleaner contains Phosphoric and Hydroxyacetic acids. These compounds are corrosive and may cause burns if swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Give large amounts of water or milk. Call Physician immediately. In case of external contact flush with water. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

10. Remove the evaporator cover then slowly pour onto the evaporator platen the cleaning solution. With the help of a brush dissolve the most resistant and remote scale deposits in the platen.

11. Switch ON again the machine at front master button switch to start the icemaking process. Allow the ice maker to operate for about 20 minutes. In case of any ice produced thrown away then turn the cleaning switch to the "cleaning" position (II) till the release of the ice cubes from their cups.

NOTE.

The amount of Cleaner and the time needed for the cleaning of water system depends of the water conditions.

12. Switch OFF the ice dispenser then flush out the cleaning solution from the sump reservoir by taking off the sump plastic cup. Once flushed out install again the sump plastic cup.

13. Pour onto the evaporator cavity two or three liters of clean potable water to rinse the mold cups and the platen.

14. Switch ON again the unit. The water pump is again in operation to circulate the water in order to rinse the entire water system. Do the operation as per steps 12 and 13 twice so to be sure no more traces of descaling solution remains into the sump.

15. With machine in OFF mode pour on the upper side of the evaporator platen fresh water with a capfull of sanitizing solution then turn again the machine in normal operating mode so to sanitize all the water system for approx. 10 minutes.

NOTE.

Do not mix descaling with sanitizing solution to avoid the generation of a very aggressive acid.

4. Remove clamp and the plastic cup located on the bottom of sump/freezing chamber to drain out all water and scale deposits.

5. Lift up curtain from brackets and remove the same.

6. Lift up the entire spray platendisconnect water hose and take it out to clean it separately.

Page 20

16. Switch OFF the machine and flush out the sanitizing solution from the sump reservoir then with the switch in "cleaning" position (II), switch it ON again. When water starts overflowing through the drain line, set the switch to "operation" (I) position. The unit is now ready to resume normal operation.

17. Place again the evaporator cover and the unit service panels.

18. At completion of the freezing and harvest cycle make sure of proper texture and clearness of the ice cubes and that, they do not have any acid taste.

ATTENTION. In case the ice cubes are cloudy-white and have an acid taste, melt them immediately by pouring on them some warm water. This to prevent that somebody could use them.

19. Wipe clean and rinse the inner surfaces of the storage bin.

REMEMBER.

To prevent the accumulation of undesirable bacteria it is necessary to sanitize every week the interior of the storage bin.
