Operation
• The production of ice takes place at the terminations (fingers) of the evaporator,
which are plunged in the tank filled with water. Water is constantly stirred by
rotating paddles.
• Water level in the tank is kept at a constant level by the float, which is connected
to a micro-switch. The micro-switch controls the opening and lack of opening of
the water supply solenoid valve.
• When ice cubes reach the expected size, they come into contact wit paddles,
and this spurs vibration of an adequate gear-motor, which powers the micro-
switch that, in turn, through a relay performs the following actions:
– sending hot gas to the evaporator through the solenoid valve; this makes
ice cubes separate gradually from evaporator's fingers.
– tilting the water tank, which is connected with the gear-motor by means
of a lever.
• After separation ice cubes move to a tilted grate inside the tank and then they
are transported to the storage container's shelf below.
• Water remaining in the pan is collected in a shelf that is located deeper in the
storage container and removed towards the drain.
• After approximately a minute the tank returns automatically to horizontal position
and fills with water to the pre-marked level. In the meantime, hot gas valve
closes again and the production cycle of ice cubes continues regularly. The
entire production cycle, depending on the water temperature, lasts for 15
–25
minutes.
• The number of ice cubes in the storage container is controlled by electronic
probe, which is located in the storage container. When ice cubes pile and reach
the probe, the appliance automatically stops production of ice cubes. When ice
cubes are removed, the production of ice is continued.
NOTE!
To speed up subsequent production of ice cubes, clear the probe off of
possible ice residue.
