 Electronic Bin Thermostat Control

The electronic bin thermostat control is used with ice machines on dispensers or ice machines with pure water 
(reverse osmosis or de-ionized). Current production Ice Beverage (IB Model) machines also have the electronic bin 
thermostat control replacing the mechanical bin thermostat control.The thermostat is intended to reduce overfill 
and condensation issues. If an ice machine has an electronic bin thermostat control, a bin thermostat will be 
mounted in the bin. 

Bin Thermostat

ELECTRONIC BIN THERMOSTAT CONTROL

The temperature control opens the bin switch (or toggle 
switch) circuit when ice contacts the sensor. When ice no 
longer contacts the sensor, the circuit closes and the ice 
machine starts.
