COMPONENT DESCRIPTION: Control Box
Contactor: A definite purpose contactor
connecting the compressor and the remote
condenser fan motor to the power supply.
Circuit Board: Controlling the ice machine
through sensors and relays. The sensors are
for ice level and water level. The relays are for
the gear motor (with a built in time delay to
clear the evaporator of ice when the unit turns
off) and for the compressor.
Transformer: Supplies low voltage to the
circuit board.
Low Pressure Cut Out Switch: A manual
reset control that shuts off the ice machine
when the low side pressure drops below a
preset point, 0-4 psig.
Potential Relay: The compressor start relay.
On/Off Switch: Manual control for the
machine.
Prior models: A manual reset. switch was
part of circuit board. Lights up when unit shuts
off from: ice discharge chute being overfilled
(opening the microswitch at the top of the
chute); low or high pressure switches opening.
Not used after July, 1990.
