Section 6 Electrical System Ice Thickness Probe Cleaning Ice Thickness Probe (Harvest Initiation) HOW THE PROBE WORKS Manitowoc’s electronic sensing circuit does not rely on refrigerant pressure, evaporator temperature, water levels or timers to produce consistent ice formation. As ice forms on the evaporator, water (not ice) contacts the ice thickness probe. After the water completes this circuit across the probe continuously for 6-10 seconds, a harvest cycle is initiated.
Electrical System Section 6 DIAGNOSING ICE THICKNESS CONTROL CIRCUITRY Ice Machine Does Not Cycle Into Harvest When Water Contacts The Ice Thickness Control Probe Step 1 Bypass the freeze time lock-in feature by moving the ICE/OFF/CLEAN switch to OFF and back to ICE. Wait until the water starts to flow over the evaporator. Step 2 Clip the jumper wire leads to the ice thickness probe and any cabinet ground.
Section 6 Electrical System Ice Machine Cycles Into Harvest Before Water Contact With The Ice Thickness Probe Step 1 Bypass the freeze time lock-in feature by moving the ICE/OFF/CLEAN switch to OFF and back to ICE. Wait until the water starts to flow over the evaporator, then monitor the harvest light. Step 2 Disconnect the ice thickness probe from the control board at terminal 1C.

The water level light is on when water contacts the probe, and off when no water is in contact with the probe. The water level light functions any time power is applied to the ice machine, regardless of toggle switch position.
Section 6 Electrical System DIAGNOSING WATER LEVEL CONTROL CIRCUITRY Q0600C/IB0600C/Q0800C/IB0800C/Q1000C/IB1000C/QDUAL Problem: Water Trough Overfilling During The Freeze Cycle Step 1 Start a new freeze sequence by moving the ICE/ OFF/CLEAN toggle switch to OFF, then back to ICE. Step 2 Wait until the freeze cycle starts (approximately 45 seconds, the freeze cycle starts when the compressor energizes) then connect a jumper from the water level probe to any cabinet ground.
Electrical System Section 6 Problem: Water Trough Overfilling During The Freeze Cycle (continued) Step 3 Allow ice machine to run. Disconnect the water level probe from control board terminal 1F, and connect a jumper wire from terminal 1F to any cabinet ground. 1 Remember if you are past 6 minutes from starting, the ice machine will go into a freeze cycle water inlet valve safety shut-off mode, and you will be unable to complete this test.
Section 6 Electrical System Problem: Water Will Not Run Into The Sump Trough During The Freeze Cycle Step 1 Verify water is supplied to the ice machine, and then start a new freeze sequence by moving the ICE/ OFF/CLEAN toggle switch to OFF then back to ICE. Step 2 Wait until the freeze cycle starts (approximately 45 seconds, the freeze cycle starts when the compressor energizes), and then refer to chart. Important This restart must be done prior to performing diagnostic procedures.

Section 6 Electrical System COMPRESSOR ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS Determine if the Compressor is Seized The compressor will not start or will trip repeatedly on overload. Check the amp draw while the compressor is trying to start. Check Resistance (Ohm) Values COMPRESSOR DRAWING LOCKED ROTOR NOTE: Compressor windings can have very low ohm values. Use a properly calibrated meter. The two likely causes of this are: Perform the resistance test after the compressor cools.
Electrical System Section 6 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.

Refrigeration System Refrigeration System Diagnostics Section 7 REFRIGERATION SYSTEM OPERATION The refrigerant enter the ice machine head section and is store in the receiver. Liquid refrigerant leaves the receiver through a dip tube and passes through the line drier and liquid line solenoid valve. The refrigerant then passes through the heat exchanger where the liquid is sub-cooled before delivery to the TXV.
Section 7 Refrigeration System Suction Accumulator Operation Refrigerant Charge Liquid refrigerant collects in the suction accumulator during the harvest cycle and is removed during the freeze cycle. The liquid refrigerant is returned to the compressor through a screen and orifice in the suction accumulator J tube. Passing the liquid through the orifice causes a pressure drop; the liquid flashes to a vapor and creates a refrigeration affect.
Refrigeration System 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. Ask these questions before beginning service: • • Section 7 2. Refer to the appropriate 24 Hour Ice Production Chart.

Refrigeration System Section 7 ICE FORMATION PATTERN IB1000C ONLY Evaporator ice formation pattern analysis is helpful in ice machine diagnostics. Tubing routing for the IB1000C evaporator is different. The evaporator outlet is at the bottom of the evaporator. Extremely Thin at the Evaporator Outlet will first be visible at the bottom and then the right side of the evaporator. Extremely Thin at the Evaporator Inlet will first be visible several inches above the bottom of the evaporator.
Section 7 Refrigeration System Important The Q1400C & QDUALC model machines have left and right expansion valves and separate evaporator circuits. These circuits operate independently from each other. Therefore, one may operate properly while the other is malfunctioning. Example: If the left expansion valve is starving, it may not affect the ice formation pattern on the entire right side of the evaporator. 2.
Refrigeration System Section 7 SAFETY LIMITS Safety Limit Stand-By Mode: General (QDUALC ONLY) In addition to standard safety controls, such as high pressure cut-out, the control board has two built in safety limit controls which protect the ice machine from major component failures. There are two control boards with different safety limit sequences. The microprocessor chip can identify the control boards. Current production control boards have an orange label on the control board microprocessor.
Section 7 Refrigeration System Safety Limit Indication Control Board with Black Microprocessor Control Board with Orange Label on Microprocessor When a safety limit condition is exceeded for 3 consecutive cycles the ice machine stops and the harvest light on the control board continually flashes on and off. Use the following procedures to determine which safety limit has stopped the ice machine.
Refrigeration System Section 7 Analyzing Why Safety Limits May Stop the Ice Machine According to the refrigeration industry, a high percentage of compressors fail as a result of external causes. These can include: flooding or starving expansion valves, dirty condensers, water loss to the ice machine, etc. The safety limits protect the ice machine (primarily the compressor) from external failures by stopping ice machine operation before major component damage occurs.
Section 7 Refrigeration System Safety Limit #1 Control Board with Black Microprocessor - Freeze Time exceeds 60 minutes for 3 consecutive freeze cycles or Control Board with Orange Label on Microprocessor - Freeze time exceeds 60 minutes for 6 consecutive freeze cycles. Possible Cause Improper installation Water system Electrical system Refrigeration system SAFETY LIMIT NOTES • Because there are many possible external problems, do not limit your diagnosis to only the items listed in this chart.
Refrigeration System Section 7 Safety Limit #2 Control Board with Black Microprocessor - Harvest time exceeds 3.5 minutes for 3 consecutive harvest cycles. or Control Board with Orange Label on Microprocessor - Harvest time exceeds 3.5 minutes for 500 consecutive harvest cycles. QDUALC ONLY - Harvest cycle time exceeds 7 minutes for 3 consecutive harvest cycles.
Section 7 Refrigeration System 3. Perform an actual discharge pressure check. ANALYZING DISCHARGE PRESSURE DURING FREEZE OR HARVEST CYCLE Procedure 1. Determine the ice machine operating conditions: Air temp. entering condenser Air temp. around ice machine Water temp. entering sump trough ______ ______ ______ 2. Refer to Cycle Times/24 Hour Ice Production/ Refrigeration Pressure Chart for ice machine being checked.
Refrigeration System Section 7 ANALYZING SUCTION PRESSURE DURING FREEZE CYCLE The suction pressure gradually drops throughout the freeze cycle. The actual suction pressure (and drop rate) changes as the air and water temperatures entering the ice machine change. This affects freeze cycle times. NOTE: Analyze discharge pressure before analyzing suction pressure. High or low discharge pressure may be causing high or low suction pressure.
Section 7 Refrigeration System Freeze Cycle Suction Pressure High Checklist Possible Cause Improper installation Discharge pressure Improper refrigerant charge Other Check/Correct See “Installation/Visual Inspection Checklist” Discharge pressure is too high, and is affecting suction pressure (See “Freeze Cycle Discharge Pressure High Checklist” Overcharged Wrong type of refrigerant Non condensables in system Non-Manitowoc components in system Cool vapor valve leaking TXV flooding (check bulb mounting) D
Refrigeration System ANALYZING FREEZE CYCLE SUCTION LINE TEMPERATURE Suction line temperature cannot diagnose an ice machine. However, comparing this temperature during the freeze cycle, along with using Manitowoc’s Refrigeration System Operational Analysis Table, can help diagnose an ice machine malfunction. The actual temperature of the suction line varies by model, and will change throughout the freeze cycle. This makes documenting the “normal” suction line temperature difficult.
Section 7 Refrigeration System COOL VAPOR VALVE Analysis General The valve can fail in two positions: The cool vapor valve is an electrically operated valve that opens when energized, and closes when deenergized. • Valve will not open in the harvest cycle. • Valve remains open during the freeze cycle. Normal Operation The valve is de-energized (closed) during the freeze cycle and energized (open) during the harvest cycle.
Refrigeration System REFRIGERATION COMPONENT DIAGNOSTIC CHART General All electrical and water related problems must be corrected before these chats will work properly. These tables must be used with charts, checklists and other references to eliminate refrigeration components not listed and external items and problems that will cause good refrigeration components to appear defective. The tables list four different defects that may affect the ice machine’s operation.

Refrigeration System Section 7 Dual Expansion Valve - Q1400C/QDUALC This table must be used with charts, checklists and other references to eliminate refrigeration components not listed on the table and external items and problems, which can cause good refrigeration components to appear defective.
Section 7 Refrigeration System HEADMASTER CONTROL VALVE Harvest Cycle Operation Function During the harvest cycle the cool vapor valve opens and allows refrigerant from the top of the receiver tank to enter the evaporator. The refrigerants change of state (from vapor to liquid in the evaporator) releases the heat necessary for the harvest cycle. The headmaster control valve maintains the correct discharge pressure and liquid line temperature in the freeze and harvest cycles.
Refrigeration System Section 7 Diagnosing Air Cooled Condensing Units FREEZE CYCLE 1. Determine the air temperature entering the condenser. 2. Determine if the head pressure is high or low in relationship to the outside temperature. (Refer to the proper “Operational Pressure Chart”) If the air temperature is below 70°F (21.1°C), the head pressure control will modulate to maintain the correct liquid line temperature and head pressure. 3.
Section 7 Refrigeration System Procedure Diagnosing Air Cooled Condensing Units HARVEST CYCLE The headmaster control valve diverts the compressor discharge gas to the ice machine receiver in the harvest cycle. All refrigerant flow through the condenser in the harvest cycle stops. Symptoms of a headmaster valve that will not seat 100% closed (completely bypass the condenser) in the harvest cycle are: • Freeze cycle suction and discharge pressure are normal. • The control board indicates safety limit #2.
Refrigeration System Section 7 Diagnosing Water Cooled Condensing Unit REFRIGERANT CHARGE VERIFICATION FREEZE CYCLE QuietQube® remote ice machines require the correct amount of refrigerant (name plate charge) to operate correctly at all ambient conditions. The water regulating valve maintains the freeze cycle discharge pressure. Refer to water regulating valve diagnostics. HARVEST CYCLE The headmaster control valve diverts the compressor discharge gas to the ice machine receiver in the harvest cycle.
