WATER-COOLED CONDENSER
AND WATER REGULATING VALVE
The water-cooled condenser and water-regulating
valve may require cleaning due to scale build-up.
Low ice production, high water consumption and
high operating temperatures and pressures all may be
symptoms of restrictions in the condenser water
circuit.
Because the cleaning procedures require special
pumps and cleaning solutions, they must be
performed by qualified maintenance or service
personnel. Follow the manufacturer instructions for
the specific product used.
MANITOWOC’S PATENTED CLEANING OR
SANITIZING TECHNOLOGY
Manitowoc ice machines include technology that
allows the initiation and completion of a cleaning or
sanitizing cycle at the flip of a switch. This cycle will
permit cleaning or sanitizing of all surfaces that come
in contact with the water distribution system.
Periodic maintenance must be performed that
includes sanitizing the bin (or dispenser) and adjacent
surface areas, which can not be contacted by the
water distribution system.
This technology will also allow initiation and
completion of a clean or sanitize cycle after which
the ice machine automatically starts ice making
again.
Refer to the cleaning or sanitizing procedure for
complete details.
