How the dispenser works
Follett's EU155N Series ice and water dispensers are available in manual load confi gurations (using ice from
another source) or automatic load confi gurations, fed from one or two Follett 400 lb (181kg)/day remote ice
machines.
In all models, ice is stored below the counter in the dispenser storage area. When the dispense lever or button is
pushed, the dispense motor is activated. This causes the wheel assembly in the storage area to turn, moving ice to
the vertical auger assembly, which carries ice up to the dispense chute where it drops by gravity into the container.
In automatic load units, ice is manufactured in either one or two Follett remote ice machines. These ice machines
may be located up to 6m away from the dispenser. As water freezes to the inside walls of the ice machine
evaporator, a rotating stainless steel auger removes ice and carries it to the top of the evaporator assembly where it
is compressed and extruded through an outlet port. The extruded ice is then pushed through the tube to the storage
compartment of the dispenser. A level fi ll circuit maximizes fi ll in the storage area by rotating the wheel at intervals
until the bin is completely fi lled. When the bin is fi lled, a bin stat shuts the ice machine off to avoid overfi lling of the
bin. The ice machine will restart after 20 minutes if the bin is calling for ice.
