Manitowoc’s Cleaning Technology Manitowoc CNF201 - CNF202 Ice Machines allow the initiation and completion of a cleaning cycle at the flip of a switch. This cycle will permit cleaning of all surfaces that come in contact with the water distribution system. Periodic maintenance must be performed that includes sanitizing the bin and adjacent surface areas, which are not contacted by the water distribution system.
Preventative Maintenance Cleaning Procedure Perform this procedure as often as required for your water conditions: • Allows cleaning the ice machine without removing all of the ice from the bin/dispenser. • Removes mineral deposits from areas that are in direct contact with water during the Freeze cycle (reservoir, evaporator, auger, drain lines). EXTERIOR CLEANING Clean the area around the ice machine as often as necessary to maintain cleanliness and efficient operation.
Preventative Maintenance Procedure Ice machine cleaner is used to remove lime scale or other mineral deposits. It is not used to remove algae or slime. Refer to “Sanitizing Procedure” for removal of algae and slime. To initiate a cleaning cycle using Manitowoc’s Cleaning Technology use the following procedure. Step 1 To start a cleaning cycle, move the toggle switch to the CLEAN position. Water will flow through the water dump valve and down the drain.
Add solution here ICE WATER ICE / WATER Step 3 The ice machine will run a wash cycle, a series of rinse cycles and then stop. This entire cycle lasts approximately 30 minutes. NOTE: Periodic cleaning must be performed on adjacent surface areas not contacted by the water distribution system. NOTE: The ice machine may be set to start and finish a cleaning procedure, and then automatically start ice making again A. After cleaner is added, move the switch from CLEAN to ICE position. B.
Changing toggle switch position during clean cycle: 1. Less than 60 seconds into Clean cycle - The Clean cycle will end when the toggle switch is moved to the OFF position. 2. More than 60 seconds into Clean cycle - The ice machine will complete the clean cycle. Toggle switch position will determine the next cycle after the Clean cycle is completed. • CLEAN POSITION - The ice machine will wait for a change in toggle switch position.
Heavily Scaled Cleaning Procedure Ice machines that are heavily scaled or have not been cleaned on a regular basis will need to run this Procedure. Failure to do so may result in binding of the auger as the lime scale releases from the auger and evaporator barrel. Step 1 Remove panels and set the ICE/OFF/CLEAN toggle switch to the OFF position. Step 2 Remove all ice from the bin. Step 3 Turn off the water supply to the ice machine. Step 4 Place ICE/OFF/CLEAN toggle switch in the CLEAN position.

Refrigeration Diagnostics BEFORE BEGINNING SERVICE Ice machines may experience operational problems only during certain times of the day or night. A machine may function properly while it is being serviced, but malfunctions later. Information provided by the user can help the technician start in the right direction, and may be a determining factor in the final diagnosis.
WATER SYSTEM CHECKLIST A water-related problem could cause component misdiagnosis. Water system problems must be identified and eliminated prior to replacing other components. Possible Problem List Water area (evaporator) is dirty. Water inlet pressure not between 20 and 80 psig. Incoming water temperature is not between 45°F (1.7°C) and 90°F (32.2°C). Water filtration is plugged (if used). Vent tube is not installed on water outlet drain. Hoses, fittings, etc., are leaking water.
ICE PRODUCTION/QUALITY CHECK QUALITY CHECK Ice quality will vary with ambient and water temperatures, and is measured by the amount of excess water in the ice. An easy test is to squeeze a handful of ice. High quality ice releases only a small amount of water. As ice quality drops, more water can be removed. Generally speaking, higher incoming water temperature results in lower ice quality. Lower water temperature results in higher ice quality. ICE PRODUCTION CHECK 1.
ANALYZING DISCHARGE PRESSURE 1. Determine the ice machine operating conditions: • Air temperature entering condenser • Air temperature around ice machine • Water temperature entering water reservoir 2. Refer to 24-Hour Ice Production/Refrigeration Pressure Chart for ice machine being checked.

COMPRESSOR ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS The compressor does not start or will trip repeatedly on overload. Check Resistance (Ohm) Values NOTE: Compressor windings can have very low ohm values. Use a properly calibrated meter. Perform the resistance test after the compressor cools. The compressor dome should be cool enough to touch (below 120°F/49°C) to assure that the overload is closed and the resistance readings will be accurate. SINGLE PHASE COMPRESSORS 1.
Compressor Drawing Locked Rotor To determine if the compressor is seized, check the amp draw while the compressor is trying to start. The two likely causes of this are a defective starting component and a mechanically seized compressor. To determine which you have: 1. Install gauge on high and low side. 2. Try to start the compressor. 3. Watch the pressures closely. A. If the pressures do not move, the compressor is seized. Replace the compressor. B.
DIAGNOSING START COMPONENTS If the compressor attempts to start, or hums and trips the overload protector, check the start components before replacing the compressor. Capacitor Visual evidence of capacitor failure can include a bulged terminal end or a ruptured membrane. Do not assume a capacitor is good if no visual evidence is present. A good test is to install a known good substitute capacitor. Use a capacitor tester when checking a suspect capacitor.
Relay Operation Check nWarning Disconnect electrical power to the ice machine before proceeding. 1. Disconnect wires from relay terminals. 2. Verify the contacts are closed.

Recovery: Operate the recovery unit as directed by the manufacturer’s instructions. B.
Charging Procedures Importan The charge is critical on all Manitowoc ice machines. Use a scale to ensure the proper charge is installed. 1. Be sure the toggle switch is in the OFF position. MANIFOLD SET CLOSED OPEN LOW SIDE ACCESS VALVE HIGH SIDE ACCESS VALVE REFRIGERANT CYLINDER VACUUM PUMP/ RECOVERY UNIT OPEN CLOSED SCALE SV3055 CHARGING CONNECTIONS 2. Close the vacuum pump valve and the low side manifold gauge valve. 3. Open the high side manifold gauge valve. 4.
7. Close the high side on the manifold gauge set. Add any remaining vapor charge through the suction access valve (if necessary). NOTE: Manifold gauge set must be removed properly to ensure that no refrigerant contamination or loss occurs. 8. Make sure that all of the vapor in the charging hoses is drawn into the ice machine before disconnecting the charging hoses. 92 A. Run the ice machine in the Freeze cycle. B. Remove the quick disconnect fitting from the high side access valve at the ice machine.
System Contamination Clean-Up General This section describes the basic requirements for restoring contaminated systems to reliable service. Importan Manitowoc Ice assumes no responsibility for the use of contaminated refrigerant. Damage resulting from the use of contaminated refrigerant is the sole responsibility of the servicing company. DETERMINING SEVERITY OF CONTAMINATION System contamination is generally caused by either moisture or residue from compressor burnout entering the refrigeration system.
Contamination/Cleanup Chart Symptoms/Findings Required Cleanup Procedure Normal evacuation/ No symptoms or suspicion of recharging contamination procedure Moisture/Air Contamination symptoms Refrigeration system open to atmosphere for longer than 15 minutes Refrigeration test kit and/or acid oil test Mild contamination shows contamination cleanup procedure Leak in water cooled condenser No burnout deposits in open compressor lines Mild Compressor Burnout symptoms Oil appears clean but smells acrid Refrigera
CLEANUP PROCEDURE Mild System Contamination 1. Replace any failed components. 2. If the compressor is good, change the oil. 3. Replace the liquid line drier. NOTE: If the contamination is from moisture, use heat lamps during evacuation. Position them at the compressor, condenser and evaporator prior to evacuation. Do not position heat lamps too close to plastic components, or they may melt or warp. Importan Dry nitrogen is recommended for this procedure. This will prevent refrigeration release. 4.
Severe System Contamination 1. Remove the refrigerant charge. 2. Remove the compressor. 3. Wipe away any burnout deposits from suction and discharge lines at compressor. 4. Sweep through the open system with dry nitrogen. Importan Refrigerant sweeps are not recommended, as they release refrigerant into the atmosphere. 5. Install a new compressor and new start components. 6. Install a suction line filter-drier with acid and moisture removal capability.
Importan Dry nitrogen is recommended for this procedure. This will prevent refrigerant release. 9. Follow the normal evacuation procedure, except replace the evacuation step with the following: A. Pull vacuum to 1000 microns. Break the vacuum with dry nitrogen and sweep the system. Pressurize to a minimum of 5 psig (35 kPa, .35 bar). B. Change the vacuum pump oil. C. Pull vacuum to 500 microns. Break the vacuum with dry nitrogen and sweep the system. Pressurize to a minimum of 5 psig (35 kPa, .35 bar).
REPLACING PRESSURE CONTROLS WITHOUT REMOVING REFRIGERANT CHARGE This procedure reduces repair time and cost. Use it when any of the following components require replacement, and the refrigeration system is operational and leak-free. • Fan cycle control • High pressure cut-out control • Low pressure control • High side service valve • Low side service valve Importan This is a required in-warranty repair procedure. 1. Disconnect power to the ice machine. 2.
