Spray Thickness
The spray thickness can be increased or decreased with the water application rate scaling control
rocker switch, or with the rotary knob on the display. This is a calculated value based on the water
flow rate, the overall spray width value stored in the control system, and the traveling speed of the
machine.
Ground Speed
This is the actual speed of the ice resurfacing machine. The water flow produced by the system is
based on the ground speed of the machine.
Water Flow
This is the amount of water being dispersed by the system, per minute. This value is monitored by
the control system, and a fault is raised if:
•
The system is not producing enough flow
•
The system is producing too much flow
Water Pressure
This is the pressure of the spray water. While this value is not used as a flow control parameter, it
does inform the control system of various fault conditions, such as:
•
Water system leaks
•
Water system clogs, such as clogged spray nozzles
•
Water pump performance problems (in the case of a worn-out water pump)
Water Temperature
This is the temperature of the spray water. This allows the operator to monitor the temperature of
the water used in making ice. This is not used to control the system.
Total Water Used
This is the total amount of water used by the system, since the last time the total was reset with
the soft key to the left of the number for total water used.
