High Pressure Cutout (HPCO) Control
Function
Stops the ice machine if subjected to excessive high-side
pressure.
The HPCO control is normally closed, and opens on a rise
in discharge pressure.
Specifications
Cut-out: 450 psig ±10
Cut-in: Automatic reset
(Must be below 300 psig to reset).
Check Procedure
1. Set ON/OFF/WASH switch to OFF.
2. Connect manifold gauge set.
3. Hook voltmeter in parallel across the HPCO, leaving
wires attached.
4. On water-cooled models, close the water service
valve to the water condenser inlet. On self-contained
air-cooled models, disconnect the fan motor.
5. Set ON/OFF/WASH switch to ON.
6. No water or air flowing through the condenser will
cause the HPCO control to open because of excessive
pressure. Watch the pressure gauge and record the
cut-out pressure.

Warning
If discharge pressure exceeds 460 psig and the HPCO
control does not cut out, set ON/OFF/WASH switch to
OFF to stop ice machine operation.
Replace the HPCO control if it:
• Will not reset (below 300 psig)
• Does not open at the specified cut-out point
