Flaker Sequence of Operation
The Hoshizaki Flaker utilizes a solid state sequence timer
board to switch the components on and off as needed.
The sequence is as follows:
With proper voltage and water supplied to the Flaker and
the flush and ice switch is in the ice position, power is
supplied to the inlet water valve. The unit will not start
unless the reservoir is full and both floats on the dual float
switch are closed (in the up position). The operation is
then turned over to the bin control. If the bin control is
closed and calling for ice, the gear motor and condenser
fan motor are energized. One minute later, the compressor
starts. As the refrigeration systems cools the water in the
evaporator, ice will start to form within 2 to 5 minutes. This
depends on the inlet water temperature and ambient condi-
tions. Ice production will continue until the bin control is
satisfied (opens). The shut down process is very simple.
On the F-450, F-800, F-1000, and F-2000 units, the entire
unit shuts down within 6 seconds after the bin control
switch opens. On the F-300 and F-500, approximately 90
seconds after the bin control switch opens, the compres-
sor stops, on minute later the gear motor and condenser
fan motor stop. This sequence of operation is accom-
plished through a series of timers within the solid state
timer board.
