Installation
WATER FILTRATION
A water filter system should be installed with the ice machine.
CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS
The unit must have a minimum of 6 inches (15 cm) of clearance at the rear, top, and sides of the ice machine
for proper air circulation. When using models which are located under the counter, circulation occurs from the
front. Top and side clearances are minimal.
STACKING
Omcan does not recommend stacking the unit.
DISPENSER APPLICATION
A thermostatic bin control kit must be installed if the ice machine is placed on a dispenser. A bin top may or
may not be required.
Operation
There are 3 systems: the Cooling System, the Water System and the Electrical System.
During the ice-making stage, the hot gas valve is closed. The hot refrigerant gas is pumped out of the
compressor to the condenser. The hot gas is cooled by a fan after passing through the condenser. The drier
and filter will reduce possible dirt and moisture in the refrigerant. The refrigerant expands in the evaporator
cooling so water will freeze. The low pressure refrigerant gas returns to the compressor from the evaporator
where the cycle continues. During the ice harvest stage, the valve is open. The hot refrigerant gas is pumped
out of the compressor to the evaporator through the hot gas valve. Since the hot gas i not cooled by the
condenser, the refrigerant warms the evaporator. Ice in contact with the evaporator begins to melt on the back
side. The ice gradually ice slides off of the evaporator and drops to the storage bin. When the water inlet is
connected with the main water supply, water will fill the trough through the float valve until the water level
in the trough closes the valve. During the ice-making stage, water is pumped from the water trough to the
water distribution tube. The distributed water flows over the surface of the cold evaporator where the water is
converted to ice. The unfrozen water will return to the trough. At the end of the freeze cycle and during harvest,
the water dump valve is opened and the remaining water is pumped down the drain.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
1. First time usage: The ice-maker must be properly installed. Switch the water tap on, let the water trough
fill, then turn the power switch to the ON position on the back panel. The ice-maker will start working
automatically. In this stage, the time is fixed about 3 minutes. At this status, the White, Green, Yellow and
