COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

Evaporator: A refrigerated vertical tube filled
with water and containing a water seal and
auger.
Auger: A solid stainless steel double spiral
auger, it pushes the ice crystals up to the top
of the evaporator.
Water Seal: A two part "face" seal, the top half
rotating with the auger, the bottom half
stationary, the sealing action being where the
two seal "faces" meet.
Ice Sweep: A plastic cap with "fingers". It
revolves with the auger to "sweep" the ice into
the ice chute.

Breaker (Divider): Where the ice is
compressed and much of the extra water is
squeezed out of it before it is discharged into
the bin.
Motor: A permanent split capacitor motor that
drives the gear reducer.
Thrust Bearing: As the ice is pushed up the
evaporator, the auger is thrust down, and
pressure from the auger thrust is taken up by
this bearing.
