Power and Water Interruptions
Short (less than one second) power interruptions
cause no change in operation.
Longer interruptions initiate a restart process:
·
Freeze light blinks on controller
·
Compressor is off
·
Vapor inlet valve opens
·
Liquid inlet valve closes
·
Purge valve opens
·
Pump starts, empties the reservoir
·
Purge valve closes
·
Inlet water valve fills reservoir
·
The Compressor starts
·
Vapor inlet valve closes
·
Liquid inlet valve opens
·
Freeze cycle proceeds for 30 seconds
·
Harvest cycle initiated, continues for 4 minutes
·
Normal freeze cycle starts
Water Interruptions
The water level sensor checks for water fill
whenever the water inlet valve is activated. If the
water level sensor does not record a full reservoir
within the pre-set time, the controller
·
shuts the unit off
·
blinks the water diagnostic light two times and
repeats
After 20 minutes the inlet water valve is powered
again and if the water level sensor is satisfied, the
unit is restarted. If the controller still doesn’t sense
a full reservoir it keeps the unit off for another 20
minutes and then restarts the water fill process.
The process of retrying water fill will continue until
a full reservoir is sensed. There is no limit to the
number of refill attempts.
