SECTION I
GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL
The MAR SPLIT UNITS are pratically the
"Evaporating Unit Section" complete with driving
mechanism and control devices, all encased in
their stainless steel cabinets, for making complete scale-ice maker system
The MAR SPLIT UNITS must be remotely
connected to a corresponding size "Condensing
Unit" to become a MAR scale-ice maker plant, it
is therefore of primary importance first, the
selection of the right type and size of all the
components to be used to complete the refrigerant
system and secondly - but not least - the skillness
of the refrigeration engineers that will proceed in
completing the system by making the refrigerant,
hydraulic and electrical connections.
APPLICATION AREA
The scale-ice maker system using the MAR Split
Units, applies to different sort of market situations
where scale-ice is needed. Most specific areas
are:
a) Fishing Vessels
b) Fish Markets and Fish Processing Plants
c) Supermarkets
d) Meat packaging plants
Basically they can go in any place where there is
a limited space situation or where the condensing
unit (compressor/condenser) must be located in
a room where noise and heat is not objectionable.
MAR Split can be set to produce "THICK ICE"
generally used in the fishing industry or "THIN
ICE" generally used in the meat processing
industry.
Standard versions are set for "THICK ICE"
production (about 2 mm thickness) and for fresh
water operation. Different conditions should be
specified when ordering the Units.
Modular combinations are possible to increase
output ice production.
COMPLETE SYSTEM INSTALLATION - How
it is made
The complete scale-ice making system can be
divided in three major groups, that are:
a) the compressor and condenser unit with their
own components with their own refrigerant
and water lines fittings and electric wires
terminal block.
b) the evaporator drum unit (MAR Split Unit
supplied by Frimont) complete with drive
mechanism, drive motor, refrigerant and water
lines fittings, refrigerants expansion valve and
electric wire junction box.
c) console panel and control box with compressor
ON/OFF switch, relay, timer, warning lights,
pressure gauges and electrical wire terminal
block.
For installation on board of fishing vessels where
the electrical power available is not sufficient or
adequate to run the compressor, a mechanical or
hydraulic drive transmission must be used.
These drive systems will not be covered in details
in this manual as it is assumed that their
fundamentals have been already mastered to
the installator engineer by more specific
publications.
CONDENSING UNIT
The compressor is truly the heart of the system,
when it becomes inoperative refrigeration
immediately ceases. Therefore the selection of
proper type and size of compressor together with
the proper type and size of condenser, their
components and controls, deserve the most of
attention by the refrigeration engineer.
For our MAR ice making system, the compressor
to take is consideration are ot two basic types:
a) the accessible Semi-Hermetic-Motor-
Compressor for installation on sites where the
electrical power supply is available in adequate
quantity and quality.
b) the Open Type Compressor for automative
installations (Fishing Vessels) with mechanical
pneumatic or hydraulic drive system through
a magnetic clutch.
Whatever is the type of compressor being used,
it is recommended, for its selection, to observe
the refrigerant capacity on the following table:
MAR 78 3200 Kcal/h -18°C Evap. Temp.
MAR 108 4800 Kcal/h -24°C Evap. Temp.
MAR 128 6000 Kcal/h -24°C Evap. Temp.
MAR 208 8250 Kcal/h -20°C Evap. Temp.
MAR 308 9700 Kcal/h -30°C Evap. Temp.
Page 11
Page 11
The approximate heat transfer capacity for the
condenser selection is shown on the herebelow
table
The condenser is basically a heat exchanger
where the heat absorded by the refrigerant during
the evaporating process is given to the condensing
medium which could be the air or the water.
When using marine type condenser a marine
type, water regulating valve is requested as well
to modulate the cooling water flow within
condenser.
Recommendend valve is the pressure actuated
"PENN".
The Liquid receiver is a storage tank for liquid
refrigerant that can be useful on refrigeration
split installation to make the quantity of refrigerant
in the system less critical.
It is normally provided with two service valves
and occasionally can be built-in the bottom of
condenser. It is a common component used in
refrigeration plant and should be large enough to
hold all the refrigerant in the system.
The Oil separator should be filled with oil during
installation until the float valve just begins to
open. This oil quantity always remains in the
separator and would otherwise be taken from the
compressor.
It is well known that when the compressor
operates, small amount of oil is pumped out
along with the hot compressed vapor and to
prevent it from going any further in the system,
the oil separator traps it to return, upon opening
of its float valve, to the crankcase of the
compressor.
CONTROL DEVICES
The scale-ice maker system must be completed
with all the necessary safety devices and controls
in order to fully protect it and to minimize
operational checks and functions, however any
excess in using automatic controls and protections
may complicate the situation at the point that
some of the controls be eliminated later, by the
user.
In order to help the installator engineer to decide
with which controls he has to equip a given
system, we cover all the necessary ones
mentioning for each of them the positive factors
and eventually the negative ones.
High Pressure Control
Very important - No negative factors Set to
values shown on techn. spech. Not supplied.
Water Pressure Control
Very important - No negative factors Set to 0.8
atm-cut-in - 0.5 atm cut-out. Supplied.
Lo Pressure Control
Very important because in case of refrigerant
leaks at the evaporator, it prevents to draw in the
system some water from the drum reservoir. It
also prevents to draw air through the compressor
crank-shaft seal. This may occure during vacuum
operations of the system.
However, it may inopportunely trip-off at the
system start-up and if suction operating pressure,
on account of the excessive rotating speed of
compressor or excessive compressor capacity,
is very close and gets below its setting value,
which is 0.2 atm. Not supplied.

Particular care must be deserved to the selection
of the water cooled condenser expecially the
marine type for fishing vessels installation.
They can be marine type (cupro-nickel) tube
within a tube condenser with plasticized heads.
With water inlet temperature of +20°C and outlet
of +30°C at condensing temperature of 32°C the
water consumption should be:
