Ice Manager Diverter Valve System Operation and Service Manual 21
Diverter valve module
There are three major functional components within the
diverter valve.
Control board
(Fig. 36)
The control board manages all functions of the Ice
Manager diverter valve system based on signals
received from lane 1 and lane 2 ice level sensors. It
diverts ice ow from one lane to another, while ice
storage units are lled and shuts off ice machine when
both dispensers are at the FULL level.
The control board communicates with the Horizon ice
machine and the sensors for the lane 1 and lane 2 via
appropriate signal cables. It supplies 120/60/1 electrical
power to the divert gearmotor assembly and monitors
the divert gearmotor position status based on inputs
from two magnetic switches mounted to the gearmotor
bracket. It also provides 12vdc power to the control
panel via the gray control cable.
Divert gearmotor
(Fig. 37)
The divert gearmotor assembly is linked to the divert
paddle assembly and manages ice ow direction.
Divert paddle
(Fig. 38)
Located inside of the body of the diverter valve module,
the divert paddle is driven by the gearmotor and
switches ice ow from one internal channel to another.
