When replacing a thermostatic bin control, check the op-
eration by holding ice against the thermostatic bulb with the
control switch in the wash position. The pump should stop
within 6 to 10 seconds. Adjustment up to 30~45 seconds
could be acceptable depending on the application. Adjust
the control “CCW” for a faster shut down.
Note: Control board dip switch number 7 must be OFF for
this control to operate the unit. A thermostatic bin control
may be used on KML models and is required for some
dispenser application.
2.MECHANICAL BIN CONTROL:
KML and some M models use a mechanical bin control.
This control includes a proximity switch and actuator paddle
assembly. The mechanical bin control assembly mounts in
the ice drop zone area and will shut the unit dowm within 3
seconds when ice pushes the actuator paddle to the full
right position, away from the proximity switch. Shut down
will only occur during the first 5 minutes of the freeze cycle
when the paddle is moved away from the proximity switch.
If the paddle is moved away from the proximity switch and
held at any other time during the sequence, the unit will
continue to run until the next freeze cycle occurs. This
feature allows for a full batch of ice every cycle so that
there are no small cubes in the bin.
A resistor wireing harness connects the mechanical bin
control to the red K4 connector on the control board. As the
proximity switch opens and closes, the resistance value
will change to either start up or shut down the unit.
___
bracket. When installing, make sure the bracket points
downward so that the cubes will easily fall away from the
bin control bulb.
