Ice Machine Doesn’t Harvest Properly
ICE MACHINE CYCLES INTO HARVEST PREMATURELY
OR
ICE MACHINE DOES NOT CYCLE INTO HARVEST
Symptoms
•
Low ice production
•
Thin or thick ice in bin
•
Freeze cycles are shorter or longer than published
cycle times
•
Large sheet of ice on evaporator
•
Ice thickness probe freezing into the ice sheet.
Diagnostics
1. Remove all ice from the evaporator when present.
Use the 'FORCE HARVEST' function on the FND if
necessary.
2. Turn the 'ICE/OFF/WASH' switch to the 'OFF'
position.
3. Disconnect power to the ice machine at the main
disconnect.
4. Inspect the ice thickness probe for physical damage
and/or scale buildup. Clean if necessary.
5. Verify the ice thickness probe gap is approximately
1/4" -3/8". See “Ice Thickness Check” on page 108.
6. Make sure the ice thickness probe wire and the
bracket do not restrict movement of the probe.
7. Reapply power to the ice machine at the main
disconnect.
8. Return the 'OFF/ICE/WASH' switch to the 'ICE'
position.
