Commercial Ice Maker Installation

Open the case and move the ice maker to an appropriate location. Check the packing list and its contents; please inquire with your dealer if they are different.

Operating environment

1. Environment temperature: SN, N：10℃～38℃

Environment humidity: relative humidity ≤90%

• The distance between the air outlets and the wall should be over 20cm. Besides, ensure good ventilation and ensure the machine is dry and clean. The ice maker must be placed far away from any heat source, such as a bake oven, electric cooker, etc.

2. The water source suits the sanitary standards, and the water temperature and pressure are appropriate. For the biggest efficiency, the inlet water temperature value should be 0.6~32℃, and the pressure should be 0.138~0.552MPa.

3. There should be a sewer. Since some water will be discharged while working, keep the sewer unblocked.

Power Supply

• Select the proper power supply according to the voltage and power on the nameplate.
• Connect the power wire and supply, ensuring the yellow and green wires are connected firmly to the ground wire.

Caution

1. For safety, ensure the ground connection is in good condition.
2. All the exterior wires and other appliances must conform to the national standard.

Suppose the voltage fluctuation range is extensive (± 10% over the rated voltage), it will cause many faults, such as the machine can’t be started. In that case, the electronic control board or the compressor is damaged. Therefore, you must use a suitable automatic voltage regulator.

You must remove the decorative panel to turn on the power for the LB360T, LB440T, LB400TA, and LB550TA.

4. Connect the water supply pipe.

Remove the water supply pipe from the accessory bag and connect its double end to the water supply valve and faucet.

First, sleeve the connector 1tothewaterfaucet, then join one end of water supply pipe which has steel balls totheconnector 1(hang on this water supply pipe’s end, loose it after beingconnectedtothe connector 1), and connect the other end which is attached withascrewtothewater supply valve, the valve also has a screw in its end, screwdownthevalveinclockwise.

Once the installation is finished, check the connect part to see if it leaks. You should connect the water pipes according to the diagram on the rear panel. The flow rate of condensate water is adjustable according to the customers’ needs. (Condensate flow relates to the speed of making ice)

Warning

The water used to make edible ice blocks must be drinking water; the water’s temperature must be between 0.6~32℃, and the pressure between 0.138~0.552MPa.

5. Connect the water discharge pipe.

The water discharge pipe is situated at the back of the machine, extended pipe sends to the sewer.

Attention

To keep the water discharged smoothly, the discharge pipe’s lowest point must be above the highest point of the sewer to prevent the discharge water from flowing back.

6. Keep the main body in a level situation

Please keep the main body level to ensure the ice maker usually works. First, screw down the two adjustable legs into the machine’s nuts. If the main body is not level, you can adjust the two legs properly.

Commercial Ice Maker Service Instructions

Operation process

First, turn on the water faucet, power, and water supply valve, fill the sink with water, and turn off the faucet when the sink is filled with appropriate water.

Ice-make process

After several minutes, the water pump starts working, and water is pumped and flows evenly through the ice model. At last, ice is formed in the model. When the ice thickness sensor detects the regulated thickness of ice, the ice starts to drop.

Ice-drop Process

The water pump stops working, the water supply valve will be opened, and water will go into the sink. The heating valve will be turned on, and the refrigerant gas will be led into the ice model; the ice block will be melted, and after about 2 minutes, the ice block will drop into the ice cabinet. The falling ice block hit the retaining board (the inductive switch, which is fixed on the right side of the retaining board). Till now, one circle is over, and the new ice-making circle will start.

Auto-stop

When the ice cabinet is filled with ice blocks, the continuing falling ice block will be locked between the retained board and evaporator; the retained board would be opened continually and couldn’t return to its original position. After several seconds, the ice maker will stop working automatically. Once the iceblock locked between the retained board and evaporator is taken away, the retained board will return to its original position, and the ice maker will restart to make ice.

Running check

1. When the ice maker is in the working process, a sudden interruption of the water supply can lead to the sink not being filled with appropriate water. The icemaker will turn into a standby condition and not make ice as usual. The machine can work normally after the water supply becomes normal and the machine is restarted.
2. The fan motor for the condenser is controlled by temperature. When the condenser’s surface temperature is lower, the fan motor stops to save power; when the surface temperature rises, the fan motor works again, so the fan motor works intermittently during the ice-making process.
3. When a commercial ice maker works at a lower ambient temperature, the ice-drop process will be later than usual. If this occurs three times continuously, the machine will stop automatically, and the red light in the electrical box alternately flickers with the other four lights. After restarting the machine, it will become normal. Therefore, we suggest the user not use the machine at a low ambient temperature.

Commercial Ice Maker Daily Cleaning and Maintenance

Clearance of side panels and inner container

1. Before cleaning and sanitizing the ice maker, clean up the ice blocks in the cabinet and ensure the power and water sources have been cut off.
2. Clean the side panels and inner container with clean water (add some neutral detergent to the water) and wipe with a soft towel.

Attention: Do not spray water on the machine directly. Alkaline detergent, perfumed soap, lapping powder, boiling water, banana oil, tolperison, and most other organic solvents can’t be used to clean the machine.

Dust removal of the condenser

To use the machine well, please clean the dust covering the condenser’s fins once every three months. Open the ventilation fence in front of the machine (grasp the frame of the ventilation fence by hand, pull it out carefully), and use a dust collector or brush to clean the dust.

Sharp iron tools must not be used to clean the condenser and must not damage the radiating fins.

Cleaning the spray water pipe

• Cleaning the ice maker: The spray water pipe must be cleaned once every half-year. To clean it, first open the front cover, remove the spray pipe, and then scour off the scum until every hole is unblocked. After finishing the cleaning, reinstall it.
• After finishing washing, screw out the cap of the drain valve, drain out all the dirty water, and then tighten the cap.
• After finishing washing, screw out the cap of the drain valve, drain out all the dirty water, and then tighten the cap.

Automatic cleaning of the ice maker

Automatically cleaning the ice maker: when the machine is making ice, softly push the “clean” key on the electrical box, which is on the rear panel, the refrigeration system will stop working, and the machine turns into an auto-wash process.

The wash process is divided into three steps: wash, potch, and drain. It will take about 30 minutes. To improve the cleaning effect, the user can add a little neutral detergent. After finishing washing, the machine automatically turns into an ice-making machine.

Clean the split-type commercial ice maker and the auto-clean series ice maker.

Button “AN (MODE)” on the PC board: After pressing the button “AN(MODE)”, the machine will stop the current working process and turn into the next.

Working process: power supply—filling water—balance—pre-cooling—refrigerating—collecting ice—ice is full.

Switch on the power source and clean.

Usually, the machine is connected to the power source continually. When you connect the machine to the power source, firstly, there is a clean process after the water in the sink is full: water supply—water pump works —water pump works and drain-valve opens—water supply—water pump works—water pump works and drain-valve opens—pressure balances. This process will take about 5 minutes (once every 30 ice-make cycles). In addition, after every four ice-making cycles, there is a draining process, draining out the water in the sink.

After finishing washing, confirm the place of the float ball: If the float ball is on the bottom and the machine is on, this condition is normal, the program will turn into pressure balance process, the water level will be controlled automatically; If the float ball is on the upper position and the machine stops, it meansthat thereare some problems with the water level sensor, water pump or drainvalve.

Point: The water filter core is consumable and outside the guaranteed scope. Don’t hesitate to contact our marketing department and buy it if you need it. If you haven’t used the machine for a long time, please follow the following steps: Turn off the power switch, remove the machine’s plug, and cut off the power and water supply.

• Remove the ice block from the cabinet and wipe out the water on the inside.
• Wipe out the water on the cabinet, then open the door and dry the cabinet.
