COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

Control Box: Contains the electrical controls that

operate the machine.

High Pressure Cut Out Switch: An automatic reset

switch sensing the high side refrigeration pressure.

It is set to shut the machine off if the discharge

pressure should ever exceed 450 PSIG.

Low Pressure Cut Out Switch: An automatic reset

control that shuts off the ice machine when the low

side pressure drops below a preset point, 15 PSIG.

Evaporator: A vertical stainless steel tube,

refrigerated, and water filled. In it there is a stainless

steel auger.

Compressor: The refrigerant vapor pump.

Reservoir: Float operated, it maintains the water

level in the evaporator at a constant level, it also

contains the water level sensor.

Water Level Sensor: Senses if there is water in the

reservoir to make ice out of. Will shut the machine

off it there is none.

Ice Discharge Chute: Directs the ice produced by

the evaporator into the storage bin.

Ice Level Sensor: An electronic “eye”, it senses the

presence of ice in the bottom of the ice discharge

chute. Operates to turn the ice machine on and off

automatically as the level of ice in the bin changes.

Gear Motor: An oil filled, speed reduction gearbox,

driving the auger.

Drain Tube: When uncapped and lowered, drains

the evaporator.

Condenser: Air or water cooled, where the heat

removed in ice making is discharged.

Expansion valve: The refrigerant metering device.
