SECTION TWO

THEORY OF OPERATION

OPERATING SYSTEMS

There are three operating systems in the ice maker:

• Refrigeration System

• Water System

• Electrical System

Refrigeration System

The refrigeration system in the ice maker is very similar to the system used in other refrigeration

appliances such as a refrigerator or freezer. The refrigerant used in this unit is R-134a.

There are two very important additions to the refrigeration system in the ice maker:

• Hot Gas Valve - This valve allows high pressure refrigerant gas to bypass the condenser and

flow through the condenser accumulator tube.

• Condenser Accumulator Tube - the hot gas pushes liquid refrigerant in the accumulator tube

into the evaporator, helping to evenly heat the evaporator plate so the ice slab releases quickly

and evenly.
