Analyzing Discharge Pressure in the Freeze Cycle
1. Determine the ice machine operating conditions:
Air temp. entering condenser
______
Air temp. around ice machine
______
Water temp. entering sump trough
______
2. Refer to Operating Pressure table (starting on page
223) for ice machine being checked.
Use the operating conditions determined in step 1 to
find the published normal discharge pressures.
Freeze Cycle ______
Harvest Cycle ______
3. Perform an actual discharge pressure check.
Freeze Cycle
psig (kPa)
1 Minute into the
Freeze Cycle
__________
Middle of Freeze Cycle
__________
End of Freeze Cycle
__________
4. Compare the actual discharge pressure (step 3) with
the published discharge pressure (step 2).
The discharge pressure is normal when the actual
pressure falls within the published pressure range
for the ice machine’s operating conditions. It is
normal for the discharge pressure to be higher at
the beginning of the Freeze cycle (when load is
greatest), then drop throughout the Freeze cycle.
