Water Quality (ice-making circuit)

  • Potable
  • The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine will have an impact on the time between cleanings and ultimately on the life of the product. Water can contain impurities either in suspension or in solution.
  • Suspended solids can be filtered out. In solution or dissolved solids cannot be filtered, they must be diluted or treated. Water filters are recommended to remove suspended solids. Some filters have treatment in them for dissolved solids.
  • Check with a water treatment service for a recommendation.
  • RO water. This machine can be supplied with Reverse Osmosis water, but the water conductivity must be no less than 10 microSiemens/cm.

Potential for Airborne Contamination

  • Installing an ice machine near a source of yeast
    or similar materials can result in the need for more frequent sanitation cleanings due to the tendency of these materials to contaminate the machine.

  • Most water filters remove chlorine from the water supply to the machine which contributes to this situation. Testing has shown that using a filter that does not remove chlorine, such as the Scotsman Aqua Patrol, will greatly improve this situation.

Warranty Information

  • The warranty statement for this product is provided separately from this manual. Refer to it for applicable coverage. In general, a warranty covers defects
    in material or workmanship. It does not cover maintenance, corrections to installations, or situations when the machine is operated in circumstances that exceed the limitations printed above.

Location

  • While the machine will operate satisfactorily within the listed air and water temperature limits, it will produce more ice when those temperatures are nearer the lower limits. Avoid locations that are hot, dusty, greasy or confined.
  • Air-cooled models need plenty of room air to breathe. Air-cooled models must have at least six inches of space at the back for air discharge; however, more space will allow better performance.

Airflow

  • Air flows into the front of the cabinet and out the back. The air filters are on the outside of the front panel and are easily removed for cleaning.

Options

  • Ice is made until it fills the bin enough to block an infrared light beam inside the base of the machine. A field-installed kit is available to adjust the maintained ice level lower. The kit number is KVS.
  • The standard controller has excellent diagnostic capabilities and communicates to the user through the AutoAlert light panel, seen through the front panel.
  • Field-installed kits are available that can log data and provide additional information when the front panel is removed. The kit numbers are KSBU and KSB-NU.

Bin compatibility

  • All models have the same footprint: 22 inches wide by 24 inches deep. Confirm available space when replacing a prior model.

  • Chilled water can also be used for this connection.

Backflow

  • The design of the float valve and reservoir prevents potable water backflow using a 1″ air gap between the reservoir’s maximum water level and the float valve water inlet orifice.

Drain

  • There is one 3/4” FPT condensate drain fitting at the back of the cabinet. Water-cooled models also have a 1/2” FPT discharge drain connection on the back panel.

Attach Tubing

  • Connect the potable water supply to the potable water fitting, 3/8” OD copper tubing or the equivalent is recommended.
  • Water filtration is recommended. If there is an existing filter, change the cartridge.
  • Connect the water-cooled water supply to the condenser inlet.
  • Note: Do NOT filter water to the water-cooled condenser circuit.
  • Drains – use rigid tubing: Connect the drain tube to the condensate drain fitting. Vent the drain.
  • Connect the water-cooled condenser drain tube to the condenser outlet. Do not vent this drain.
  • Do not Tee ice machine drains into the drain tube from the ice storage bin or dispenser. Backups could contaminate and/or melt the ice in the bin or dispenser. Be sure to vent the bin drain.
  • Follow all local and national codes for tubing, traps and air gaps.

Air Cooled or Remote Plumbing

Electrical – All Models

  • The machine does not include a power cord, one must be field supplied or the machine hard-wired to the electrical power supply.

Refrigeration – Remote Condenser Models

  • Remote condenser models have additional installation needs.
  • The correct remote condenser fan and coil must be connected to the ice-making head. Liquid and discharge tubing connections are on the back of the ice machine cabinet.
  • Tubing kits are available in several lengths to accommodate most installations.
  • Order the one that just exceeds the length needed for the installation.
  • The kit numbers are: BRTE10, BRTE25, BRTE40, BRTE75
  • There are limits as to how far away from the ice machine and where the remote condenser can be located. See page 10 for those limits.Scotsman-NH0422-Alcotest-7510-Professional-Digital-Breathalyser-FIG-8

The correct condenser must be used:

Ice Machine Model Voltage Condenser Model
NH0622R-1 NS0622R-1 FS0822R-1 NH0922R-1 NS0922R-1 115 ERC111-1
NH0922R-32 NS0922R-32 FS1222R-32 FS1222R-3 208-230 ERC311-32
NH1322R-32 NS1322R-32 208-230 ERC311-32
  • Do not reuse condenser coils contaminated with mineral oil (used with R-502 for example). They will cause compressor failure and will void the warranty.
  • A headmaster is required for all remote condenser systems. Installation of headmaster kit KPFHM will be required if any of the following condensers are being used:
  • ERC101-1, ERC151-32, ERC201-32, ERC301-32, ERC402-32
  • Use of non-Scotsman condensers requires pre-approval from Scotsman Engineering.

Remote Condenser Location – Limits

  • Use the following for planning the placement of the condenser relative to the ice machine.
  • Location Limits – condenser location must not exceed ANY of the following limits:
  • The maximum rise from the ice machine to the condenser is 35 physical feet
  • The maximum drop from the ice machine to the condenser is 15 physical feet
  • The physical line set maximum length is 100 feet.
  • The calculated line set length maximum is 150.

Calculation Formula:

  • Drop = dd x 6.6 (dd = distance in feet)
  • Rise = rd x 1.7 (rd = distance in feet)
  • Horizontal Run = hd x 1 (hd = distance in feet)
  • Calculation: Drop(s) + Rise(s) + Horizontal
  • Run = dd+rd+hd = Calculated Line Length
  • Configurations that do NOT meet these requirements must receive prior written authorization from Scotsman to maintain warranty.

Do NOT:

  • Route a line set that rises, then falls, then rises.
  • Route a line set that falls, then rises, then falls.

Calculation Example 1:

  • The condenser is to be located 5 feet below the ice machine and then 20 feet away horizontally.
  • 5 feet x 6.6 = 33. 33 + 20 = 53. This location would be acceptable

Calculation Example 2:

  • The condenser is to be located 35 feet above and then 100 feet away horizontally. 35 x 1.7 = 59.5.
  • 59.5 +100 = 159.5. 159.5 is greater than the 150 maximum and is NOT acceptable.
  • Operating a machine with an unacceptable configuration is a misuse and will void the warranty.Scotsman-NH0422-Alcotest-7510-Professional-Digital-Breathalyser-FIG-9

For The Installer

Remote Condenser

  • Locate the condenser as near as possible to the interior location of the ice machine. Allow it plenty of space for air and cleaning: keep it a minimum of two feet away from a wall or other rooftop unit.
    Note: The location of the condenser relative to the ice machine is LIMITED by the specification on the prior page.

  • Roof penetration. In many cases, a roofing contractor will need to make and seal the hole in the roof for the line sets. The suggested hole diameter is 2 inches.

  • Meet all applicable building codes.

Roof Attachment

  • Install and attach the remote condenser to the roof of the building, using the methods and practices of construction that conform to the local building codes, including having a roofing contractor secure the condenser to the roof Scotsman-NH0422-Alcotest-7510-Professional-Digital-Breathalyser-FIG-11

Control and Machine Operation

  • Once started, the ice machine will automatically make ice until the bin or dispenser is full of ice. When the ice level drops, the ice machine will resume making ice.
  • Caution: Do not place anything on top of the ice machine, including the ice scoop. Debris and moisture from objects on top of the machine can work their way into the cabinet and cause serious damage.
  • Damage caused by foreign material is not covered by warranty.
  • There are four indicator lights at the front of the machine that provide information on the condition of the machine: Power, Status, Water, De-scale and sanitise.
  • Note: If the De-Scale & Sanitize light is ON, the following cleaning process will clear the light for another cleaning time interval.
  • Two button switches are at the front – On and Off. To switch the machine OFF, push and release the Off button. The machine will shut off at the end of the next cycle.
  • To switch the machine ON, push and release the On button.
  • The machine will go through a start-up process and then resume ice-making.

Lower Light and Switch Panel

  • This user-accessible panel provides important operational information and duplicates the lights and switches on the controller. It also allows access to the On and Off buttons that operate the ice machine.
  • Sometimes access to the switches should be limited to prevent unauthorized operation. For that purpose, a fixed panel is shipped in the hardware package. The fixed panel cannot be opened.

To install the fixed panel:

  1. Remove the front panel and remove the bezel.
  2. Spread the bezel frame open remove the original door, and insert the fixed panel into a bezel. Be sure it is in the closed position.
  3. Return the bezel to a panel and install the panel on the unit.

Initial Start-Up and Maintenance

  1. Turn the water supply on. Remote models also open the liquid line valve.
  2. Confirm voltage and switch on electrical power.
  3. Push and release the On button. The machine will start in about two minutes.
  4. Soon after starting, air-cooled models will begin to blow warm air out the back of the cabinet and water-cooled models will drain warm water from the condenser drain tube. Remote models will be discharging warm air from the remote condenser.
    • After about 5 minutes, ice will begin to drop into the bin or dispenser.
  5. Check the machine for unusual rattles. Tighten any loose screws, be sure no wires are rubbing moving parts. Check for tubes that rub. Remote models check brazed connections for leaks and retighten as needed.
  6. Scan the QR code found behind the front panel door and complete the warranty registration online or fill out and mail the included warranty registration card
  7. Notify the user of the maintenance requirements and whom to call for service.

Maintenance

This ice machine needs five types of maintenance:

  • Air-cooled and remote models need their air filters or condenser coils cleaned regularly.
  • All models need scale removed from the water system.
  • All models require regular sanitization.
  • All models require sensor cleaning.
  • All models require a top-bearing check.

Maintenance Frequency:

  • Air filters: At least twice a year, but in dusty or greasy air, monthly.
  • Scale   removal. At least twice a year, in some water conditions it might be every 3 months. The yellow DeScale & Sanitize light will switch on after a set period as a reminder. The default period is 6 months of power-up time.
  • Sanitizing: Every time the scale is removed or as often as needed to maintain a sanitary unit.
  • Sensor Cleaning: Every time the scale is removed.
  • Top bearing checks At least twice a year or every time the scale is removed. During normal operation, some material buildup on top of the bearing is normal and should be wiped away during maintenance.

Maintenance: Air filters

  1. Pull air filter(s) from the panel.
  2. Wash the dust and grease off the filter(s).
  3. Return it(them) to their original position(s).

Do not operate the machine without the filter in place except during cleaning.

Maintenance: Air-cooled condenser

  • If the machine has been operated without a filter the air cooled condenser fins will need to be cleaned.
  • They are located under the fan blades. The services of a refrigeration technician will be required to clean the condenser.

Maintenance: Remote air-cooled condenser

  • The condenser fins will occasionally need to be cleaned of leaves, grease or other dirt. Check the coil every time the ice machine is cleaned.

Maintenance: Exterior Panels

  • The front and side panels are durable stainless steel.
  • Fingerprints, dust and grease will require cleaning with a good-quality stainless steel cleaner
  • Note: If using a sanitizer or a cleaner that contains chlorine on the panels, after use be sure to wash the panels with clean water to remove chlorine residue.

Maintenance: Water filters

  • If the machine has been connected to water filters, check the cartridges for the date they were replaced or for the pressure on the gauge. Change cartridges if they’ve been installed for more than 6 months or if the pressure drops too much during ice-making.

Maintenance: Scale Removal and Sanitation

Note: Following this procedure will reset the de-scale and sanitize the light.

  1. Remove the front panel.
  2. Push and release the Off button.
  3. Remove ice from the bin or dispenser.
  4. Turn the water supply to the float valve OFF.
  5. Drain the water and evaporator by disconnecting the leg of the hose connected to the water sensor and draining it into the bin. Return the hose to its original position.
  6. Remove the water reservoir cover.
  7. Mix a solution of 8 ounces of Scotsman Clear One Scale Remover and 3 quarts of 95-115 degree F. potable water.

  • Push and release the Clean button: the auger drive motor and light are on, C is displayed and the De-scale light blinks. After 20 minutes the compressor will start.
  • Operate the machine and pour the scale remover into the reservoir until it is all gone. Keep the reservoir full. When all the scale remover solution has been used, turn the water supply back on.
  • After 20 minutes of ice making the compressor and auger motor will shut off.
  • Turn the water supply to the ice machine OFF
  • Drain the water reservoir and evaporator by disconnecting the leg of the hose connected to the water sensor and draining it into the bin or a bucket. Return the hose to its original position.
  • Discard or melt all ice made during the previous step.
  • Create a sanitiser solution. Mix 4oz/118ml of NuCalgon IMS and 2.5gal/9.5L of (90°F/32°C to 110°F/43°C) potable water to create a 200 ppm solution.
  • Pour the sanitizing solution into the reservoir.
  • Push and release the On button.
  • Switch the water supply to the ice machine.
  • Operate the machine for 20 minutes.
  • Push and release the Off button.
  • Wash the reservoir cover in the remaining sanitizing solution.
  • Return the reservoir cover to its normal position.
  • Melt or discard all ice made during the sanitizing process.
  • Wash the inside of the ice storage bin with the sanitizing solution.
  • Push and release the On button.
  • Return the front panel to its original position and secure with the original screws

Maintenance: Sensors Photo Eyes

The control that senses bin full and empty is a photoelectric eye, therefore it must be kept clean so it can “see”. At least twice a year, remove the ice level sensors from the base of the ice chute, and wipe the inside clean, as illustrated.

  1. Remove the front panel.
  2. Pull photo eye holders forward to release them.
  3. Wipe clean as needed. Do not scratch the photo-eye portion.
  4. Return the eye holders to their normal positions and return the front panel to its original position.Scotsman-NH0422-Alcotest-7510-Professional-Digital-Breathalyser-FIG-17
  • Note: Eye holders must be mounted properly. They snap into a centred position and are properly located when the wires are routed to the back and the left eye is the one with 2 wires at the connector.

Water Probe

The ice machine senses water by a probe located near the water reservoir. At least twice a year, the probe should be wiped clean of mineral build-up.

  1. Shut off the water supply.
  2. Remove the front panel.
  3. Remove the hose from the water sensor, use hose clamp pliers for this.
  4. Loosen the mounting screw and release the water sensor from the frame of the unit.
  5. Wipe probes clean.

Change De-Scale Notification Interval

This feature is accessible only from standby (Status Light Off).

  1. Press and hold Clean button for 3 seconds.
    • This starts the Time to Clean Adjustment State and displays the current time to clean setting.
  2. Press the clean button repeatedly to cycle through the 4 possible settings: 0 (disabled), 4 months, 6 months (default), 1 year
  3. Push Off to confirm the selection.

Options Vari-Smart

  • Optional adjustable ice level control (KVS). When this option is present there is an adjustment post and an additional indicator light to the right of the four indicator lights mentioned earlier.
  • The ultrasonic ice level control allows the user to control the point that the ice machine will stop making ice before the bin or dispenser is full.

Reasons for this include:

  • Seasonal changes in ice used
  • Planning to sanitize the bin
  • Faster turnover for fresher ice
  • Certain dispenser applications where maximum ice level is not desired

Use of adjustable ice level control

  • There are several positions the ice level can be set to, including Off or Max (knob and label indicators lined up), where it fills the bin until the standard bin control shuts the machine off. See the kit’s instructions for complete details including special instructions for dispenser applications.
  • Rotate the adjustment post to the desired ice level.
  • The machine will fill up to that level and when it shuts off the indicator light next to the adjustment post will be On.
  • Note: The maximum fill position is when the arrow on the knob points to the arrow on the label.

Normal Operation: Ice

  • The machine will make either flaked or nugget ice, depending upon the model. The ice will be produced continuously until the bin is full. It is normal for a few drops of water to occasionally fall with the ice.

Heat

  • On remote models most heat is exhausted at the remote condenser, the ice machine should not generate significant heat. Water-cooled models also put most of the heat from ice-making into the discharge water. Air-cooled models will generate heat, and it will be discharged into the room.

Noise

  • The ice machine will make noise when it is in ice-making mode. The compressor and gear reducer will produce sound. Air-cooled models will add fan noise.
  • Some ice-making noise could also occur. These noises are all normal for this machine.

Reasons the machine might shut itself off:

  • Lack of water.
  • Does not make ice
  • Auger motor overload
  • High discharge pressure.
  • Low refrigeration system pressure.

Check the following:

  1. Has the water supply to the ice machine or building been shut off? If yes, the ice machine will automatically restart within minutes after water begins to flow into it.
  2.  Has the power been shut off to the ice machine? If yes, the ice machine will automatically restart when power is restored.
  3. Has someone shut the power off to the remote condenser while the ice machine still had power? If yes, the ice machine may need to be manually reset.

To Manually Reset the machine.

  • Open the switch door
  • Push and release the Off button.
  • Push and release the On button.

To Shut the Machine Off:

  • Push and hold the Off button for 3 seconds or until the machine stops.
