I
A • Evaporator (20): Made of copper with nickel finishing, it has vertical cube makers around which
the ice cubes are formed.
B • Gear motor (60): It moves the plastic trough (35).
C • Micro gear motor (57): It moves the finned axis in order to stir the water, improving the ice
quality. Triggers the end of cycle microswitch.
D • End of cycle microswitch (59): It sends a signal to the circuit board signaling the end of the ice
formation cycle.
E • Upper reed switch (54): Positions the trough at the highest point.
F • Lower reed switch (58): Positions the trough at the lowest point.
G • Mobile water sensor (55): Determines the water level, which defines the ice cube's height.
H • Tank's thermostat (61): Turns the machine off when the tank is filled with ice and turns it on again
when the ice is consumed.
I • Gas solenoid valve (28): Allows the hot coolant gas to enter the evaporator directly, causing the ice
to detach therefrom.
J • Water solenoid valve (63): Its function is to fill the water trough at the beginning of each cycle.
K • Plastic Trough (35): Container for water storage where the ice cubes are formed.
L • Micro switch of the fan (46): Turn off the fan when the trough is lowered to perform by pass,
improving the detachment of ice cubes.
M • Compressor (23): Compresses the refrigerant gas, which is designed to work under medium and
high return pressure, necessary characteristics for an ice machine.
N • Circuit board (62): Receives information from the water level sensor, end of cycle microswitch,
upper reed switch, lower reed switch and it also controls the operation of the water solenoid valve, gear
motor, micro gear motor and gas solenoid valve. Sends the signal to the LEDs in case of necessary
maintenance and water shortages.
O • Fan (24): Main component to perform condensation.
