How the dispenser works
Follett’s 12 series automatic-load ice and water dispensers are equipped with Follett’s 425 lb (193 kg)/day ice
machine . In the continuous icemaking process, water freezes to the inside wall of the evaporator . A rotating
stainless steel auger carries the ice to the top of the evaporator where it is compressed and extruded through an
outlet port . The ice is then pushed through a tube to the storage hopper . When the hopper is full, a bin thermostat
opens and shuts the ice machine off . When the dispense mechanism is activated, a dispense motor is turned on,
causing the wheel to turn . This moves ice to the dispense chute where it drops by gravity into the container held
below the chute .
How SensorSAFE infrared dispensing works
Follett’s SensorSAFE infrared dispensing maximizes sanitation and minimizes the possibility of cross-contamination
by eliminating physical contact between the cup or container and dispenser . Sensors in the panel use reflected
infrared light to detect the presence of the container and send a signal to a control board which then activates the
appropriate components for ice or water dispensing .
The SensorSAFE infrared dispensing package includes a cleaning switch under the left side of the front cover
which temporarily shuts off dispensing to allow cleaning of the panel and lenses . If the switch is not turned back on
after cleaning, the dispenser automatically resets after two minutes for normal operation .
SensorSAFE infrared dispensing also includes a time limit safety feature which automatically stops ice dispensing
after one minute of continuous dispensing . Dispensing can be resumed by moving the container away from the
dispenser and returning it to the activation zone .
