Digital Control Operation (Default Modes)

Big Dipper

®

 IS System

Digital Control Operation

Timed Skimming Default

Through  the  “User  Interface”  three 

levels of skimming may be selected in 

the “default” mode. By selecting one of 

the skimming buttons – I, II, or III - the 

skimming  cycle    (see  table  below)  is 

activated.  The  LED  associated  with 

the  selected  button  is  illuminated 

continuously as an indicator of the 

selected  skim  cycle  and  as  a  “power 

on”  indicator.  If  the  skimming  level  is 

changed  during  an  active  skimming 

cycle, the next active skim cycle will be 

at the new setting (The LED associated 

with the newly selected level will change 

immediately).  If  the  skimming  cycle 

is  changed  between  active  skimming 

cycles the next skim cycle will be at the 

new level.

Motor Exercising

For all default mode skimming levels, the 

motor will be energized for 30 seconds 

every 9.5 hours. Only the motor will be 

energized (no heater operation) at these 

exercising times.

Heavy Setting:

Recommended for 

Heavy Grease Output 

(Steakhouses, Buffets, 

Heavy Grease 

producing sites***)

Start Button: Press 

to begin a cycle early 

or to test operation..

Light Setting: 

Recommended for 

Light Grease Output 

(Small Cafes, Coffee/

Ice Cream shops***)

Moderate Setting: 

Recommended for 

Moderate Grease Output 

(Quick and Full-Service 

restaurants***)

Start Button Operation

Any time the start button is depressed the “time between skims” the digital control goes to its maximum time and 

operation begins for the selected skim level. After this skimming cycle the normal time delay to the next skim cycle 

is used (skim cycle resets when the start button is depressed).

Heater Operation 

The heater operates under Thermistor control any time the skimmer motor is energized and anytime the liquid 

temperature drops to 40º F to prevent liquid from freezing. Contact Thermaco for programming alternative heater 

settings.
