4. Timer Board

[a] Solid-State Control

1) A HOSHIZAKI exclusive solid-state control is employed in the self-contained flaker icemakers.

2) A printed circuit board (hereafter called “timer board”) includes a stable and high quality control system.

3) All models are pre-tested and factory adjusted.

[b] Timer Board

CAUTION

1. Fragile, handle very carefully.

2. A timer board contains CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide

Semiconductor) integrated circuits, which are susceptible to failure due to static discharge. It is especially important to use an anti-static wrist strap when handling or replacing the board.

3. Do not touch the electronic devices on the board or the back of the board to prevent damage to the board.

4. Do not change wiring and connections. Especially, never misconnect terminals.

5. Do not fix the electronic devices or parts on the board in the field. Always replace the whole board assembly when it goes bad.

The icemaker is controlled by the timer board for the following purposes:

1) To prevent the gear motor and the compressor from starting or stopping simultaneously.

2) To reduce remaining ice in the refrigeration casing.

3) To protect the unit in case of low water and low water pressure.

4) To protect the unit in case the bin control causes chattering.

V. Removal and Replacement of Components

IMPORTANT

Ensure all components, fasteners and thumbscrews are securely in place after the equipment is serviced.

IMPORTANT

1. The Polyol Ester (POE) oils used in R-404A units can absorb moisture quickly. Therefore it is important to prevent moisture from entering the system when replacing or servicing parts.

2. Always install a new filter drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened.

3. Do not leave the system open for longer than 15 minutes when replacing or servicing parts.

1. Service for Refrigerant Lines

[a] Refrigerant Recovery

The icemaker unit is provided with two refrigerant access valves - one on the low-side and one on the high-side line. Using proper refrigerant practices recover the refrigerant from the access valves and store it in an approved container. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.

[b] Evacuation and Recharge [R-404A]

1) Attach charging hoses, a service manifold and a vacuum pump to the system. Be sure to connect charging hoses to both high-side and low-side access valves.

IMPORTANT

The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for current refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for POE oils.

2) Turn on the vacuum pump. Never allow the oil in the vacuum pump to flow backward.

3) Allow the vacuum pump to pull down to a 29.9" Hg vacuum. Evacuating period depends on pump capacity.

4) Close the low-side valve and high-side valve on the service manifold.

31

5) Disconnect the vacuum pump, and attach a refrigerant service cylinder to the highside line. Remember to loosen the connection, and purge the air from the hose. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. Hoshizaki recommends only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets ARI Standard No. 700-88 be used.

6) A liquid charge is recommended for charging an R-404A system. Invert the service cylinder. Open the high-side, service manifold valve.

7) Allow the system to charge with liquid until the pressures balance.

8) If necessary, add any remaining charge to the system through the low-side. Use a throttling valve or liquid dispensing device to add the remaining liquid charge through the low-side access port with the unit running.

9) Close the two refrigerant access valves, and disconnect the hoses and service manifold.

10) Cap the access valves to prevent a possible leak.

2. Brazing

WARNING

1. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to 176°F.

2. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high temperatures (open flames) R-404A can be decomposed to form hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.

3. Always recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.

4. Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing arsenic.

5. Do not use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.

Refrigerant leaks can be detected by charging the unit with a little refrigerant, raising the pressure with nitrogen and using an electronic leak detector.

Note: All brazing-connections are clear-paint coated. Sandpaper the brazingconnections before unbrazing the components. Use a good abrasive cloth to remove coating.

32

3. Removal and Replacement of Compressor

IMPORTANT

Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.

1) Unplug the icemaker.

2) Remove the panels.

2) Remove the terminal cover on the compressor, and disconnect the compressor

wiring.

3) Recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container, if required by an applicable law.

4) Remove the discharge, suction, and access pipes from the compressor using brazing equipment.

WARNING

When repairing a refrigerant system, be careful not to let the burner flame contact any electrical wires or insulation.

5) Remove the bolts and rubber grommets.

6) Slide and remove the compressor. Unpack the new compressor package. Install the new compressor.

7) Attach the rubber grommets of the prior compressor.

8) Sandpaper the discharge, suction and access pipes.

9) Place the compressor in position, and secure it using the bolts.

10) Remove plugs from the discharge, suction and access pipes.

11) Braze the access, suction and discharge lines (Do not change this order),

while purging with nitrogen gas flowing at the pressure of 3-4 PSIG.

12) Install the new drier.

33

13) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG) and soap bubbles.

14) Evacuate the system, and charge it with refrigerant. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge and type.

15) Connect the terminals to the compressor, and replace the terminal cover in its correct position.

16) Replace the panels in their correct position.

17) Plug in the icemaker.

4. Removal and Replacement of Drier

IMPORTANT

Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.

1) Unplug the icemaker.

2) Remove the panels.

3) Recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container, if required by an applicable law.

4) Remove the drier using brazing equipment.

5) Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the refrigerant flow.

Use nitrogen gas at the pressure of 3-4 PSIG when brazing the tubings.

6) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG) and soap bubbles.

7) Evacuate the system, and charge it with refrigerant. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge and type.

8) Replace the panels in their correct position.

9) Plug in the icemaker.

34

5. Removal and Replacement of Expansion Valve

IMPORTANT

Sometimes moisture in the refrigerant circuit exceeds the drier capacity and freezes up at the expansion valve. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the drier until after all other repairs or replacement have been made.

1) Unplug the icemaker.

2) Remove the panels.

3) Recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container, if required by an applicable law.

4) Remove the expansion valve bulb at the evaporator outlet.

5) Remove the expansion valve cover, and remove the expansion valve using brazing equipment.

6) Braze the new expansion valve with nitrogen gas flowing at the pressure of 3-4

PSIG.

WARNING

Always protect the valve body by using a damp cloth to prevent the valve from overheating. Do not braze with the valve body exceeding 250°F.

7) Install the new drier.

8) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG) and soap bubbles.

9) Evacuate the system. Charge it with refrigerant. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge and type.

3. Maintenance Instructions

IMPORTANT

1. This icemaker must be maintained individually, referring to the instruction

manual and labels provided with the icemaker.

2. To have the optimum performance of this icemaker, the following

consumable parts need periodic inspection, maintenance and

replacement:

Extruding Head

Housing

Gear Motor

Auger

Mechanical Seal

These parts should be inspected at least once a year or every 10,000 hours of operation. Their service life, however, depends on water quality and environment. More frequent inspection and maintenance are recommended.

Consult with your local distributor about inspection and maintenance service.

To obtain the name and phone number of your local distributor, call Hoshizaki

Technical Support at 1-800-233-1940 in the USA.

1) Stainless Steel Exterior

To prevent corrosion, wipe the exterior occasionally with a clean and soft cloth. Use a damp cloth containing a neutral cleaner to wipe off oil or dirt build up.

2) Storage Bin and Scoop

• Wash your hands before removing ice. Use the plastic scoop provided (bin accessory).

• The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the bin.

• Keep the scoop clean. Clean using a neutral cleaner and rinse thoroughly.

• Clean the bin liner using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.

46

3) Air Filter

A plastic mesh air filter removes dirt or dust from the air, and keeps the condenser from getting clogged. As the filter gets clogged, the icemaker’s performance will be reduced. Check the filter at least twice a month. When clogged, use warm water and a neutral cleaner to wash the filter.

4) Condenser

Check the condenser once a year, and clean if required by using a brush or vacuum cleaner. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on the location of the icemaker.
