Customized Freon System Tube Ice Machine Bulk

Generally, there are many commercial tube ice machines. Commercial tube ice making machines have a long working time due to their large usage.Use and installation of tube ice machine:1. The location where the tube ice maker machine is installed. To be installed in no direct sunlight with good ventilation. The ambient temperature in winter should not be too low outside, because the water pipes of the machine installed outside are easy to freeze. The minimum ventilation distance of the condenser is at least 1 meter above the front and rear from the shelter, and at least 50 meters above the roof. It is better to have a larger ventilation distance, and keep the air flowing and not suffocate the wind. If you really can't find a suitable time, you can install a suction device of the right size to allow the fresh air to exchange heat.2. The tube ice maker should be installed on a solid ground, and the machine should be installed horizontally without inclination. Otherwise, the machine will vibrate during operation, and if the angle is too large, the storage refrigerator will store water, which will affect the quality of the ice.3. The ambient temperature of the tube ice machine is 5-38. The ambient temperature directly affects the ice production. This is why some customers often say that ice making is slow in summer. The water temperature of 3-30C also affects the ice production. Water temperature and ice production are inversely proportional. Water pressure 1-5BAR.4. After the tube ice making machine is in place. First, check whether the appearance of the machine is damaged, whether there are foreign objects in the ice-falling channel, whether the fan blades rotate flexibly, and whether there are oil stains around the welding ports of the unit. Check that all shut-off valves of the unit are fully open. Here it says where it should be opened. Check whether the oil level of the compressor is above the oil level line and whether it is short of oil. Oil has a lot to do with the service life of the compressor. I hope everyone pays attention to the oil level and the color of the oil.5. Check the voltage of the customer's home and the size of the air switch. The tube ice machine should have its own separate water valve and power supply for future maintenance.6. Turn on the water source, whether the water pressure is normal or not, and the water pressure is too low will cause the old alarm of the machine. If the water pressure in the customer's house is stopped or the water is stopped for a long time, it is recommended that the customer store the water tank and booster pump. The water level of the inlet tank should be about 10mm lower than the overflow. The water level can be adjusted by floating.7. After the machine is powered on, do not immediately run in cooling. The crankcase heater should be able to press the oil to warm up, but some machines don't have it and it's not necessary.8. The unit is running. Listen to the sound of the unit running. Depending on the freezing condition of the evaporator, there are some machines that need to add salt water. Generally, it is better to add more than 200 grams of salt to a 30KG barrel. The specific situation can be seen by yourself. Salt is added for ice quality and ice shedding. At the same time, check whether the water level of the water separator is normal. I have seen in some stores that the water pressure is too high, and water is scattered while making ice. When the time comes, you need to close the water valve in front of the water separator. It is very simple. Not much to say.9. Observe the defrost condition of the compressor, and the air return valve of the compressor or the air return pipe of the compressor as a whole cannot freeze. To prevent liquid slugging, if there is not much fluorine, the defrost situation can be adjusted by adjusting the expansion valve.10. After the unit runs normally. Test the protection function of the unit. Water shortage protection The float switch by hand is the water level float switch, you know. Connecting two lines is actually a water level sensor for him to press down. The machine should stop. The full ice shutdown function is to block the power-off switch with your hand. Generally, the unit should stop within three minutes. Now the machine is the first press to stop. The skates stopped after two minutes.The advantage of being like this is for the next start. Scrape off the ice of the entire ice bucket to facilitate the thickness of the ice in the next machine. After all the tests are normal, ask the engineering department to sign. And guide the engineering department to maintain and use the operation of the unit, as well as daily maintenance.

Introduction of maintenance methods for common faults of tube ice machines Maintenance methods for common failures of tube ice machines1. Tube ice making machine failure phenomenon: the compressor is working but not cooling. Cause of failure: The refrigerant leaks or the two-way solenoid valve is damaged and the valve is not closed tightly. Maintenance method: repair the leak and add refrigerant after leak detection or replace the solenoid valve2. The failure phenomenon of the tube ice maker machine: the compressor has been working to cool down, the water pump has been working to pump water, and the ice cubes continue to thicken, but it cannot automatically enter the de-icing process to remove the ice. The reason for the failure of the tube ice machine: the failure of the water temperature measuring probe makes the intelligent control system unable to effectively sense the water temperature and work, misjudging the program error, or the controller failure. Tube ice machine maintenance method: use a multimeter to measure the resistance of the water temperature probe (when the water temperature in the water tank is close to 0°C, unplug the three-core wire in the control box, and test the resistance of the two wires on both sides), such as resistance If the value is above 27K, it is judged that the controller is bad and should be replaced. If the resistance value is lower than 27K, any one of the two wires must be disconnected, and the resistance value should be adjusted to 27K to 28K by connecting a resistor in series. between.3. The tube ice maker machine enters the de-icing process (the water pump stops working, the compressor stops cooling) but the ice cubes do not fall off. Cause of failure: The two-way solenoid valve is damaged. Maintenance method: replace the solenoid valve body or outer coil.4. The water shortage light of the tube ice machine is on but the machine does not automatically supply water. Cause of failure: There is no water in the pipeline or the water inlet solenoid valve is faulty and the valve does not open. The maintenance method of the tube ice machine: check the water inflow condition of the pipe, if there is no water, open the water way and restart it. If the water inlet solenoid valve is faulty, replace it.5. The compressor of the tube ice machine is working but the water pump has not been working (no flowing water). The reason for the failure: the water pump is damaged or the inside of the water pump is scaled and blocked. Tube ice machine maintenance method: clean the water pump or replace it. Identify the fault according to the indicator light of the tube ice machine1. The power indicator light of the tube ice machine has been flashing rapidly, the machine does not work: the cause of the failure: the detection water temperature probe is open circuit. The maintenance method of the tube ice machine: open the rear cover, open the electrical control box cover above the compressor, find a three-core connector, check whether there is a phenomenon of falling off or poor contact, and then plug it again.2. The three ice lamps of the tube ice machine flash cyclically, and the machine does not work: the cause of the failure: the ice making and de-icing of the machine is not normal; the maintenance method: restart the machine,  3. The tube ice making machine firstly checks whether the fan and water pump are working normally. If there is any abnormality, first eliminate it, and then check whether the compressor has started to work. If it does not work, check the controller and compressor accessories; if it has been started, judge the refrigeration If the system fails, repair it according to the corresponding maintenance method.4. If there is no fault in the refrigeration system, the ice can be made normally, but the ice has not been de-iced. After 90 minutes, the machine judges that the work is abnormal and stops for protection. It is necessary to use a multimeter to measure the resistance of the water temperature probe (when the water temperature in the water tank is close to 0 degrees, unplug the three-core wire in the control box, and measure the resistance of the two wires on both sides), if the resistance is above 27K, then If it is judged that the controller is bad, it should be replaced. If the resistance value is lower than 27K, any one of the two wires must be disconnected, and the resistance value should be adjusted between 27K and 28K by connecting the resistance in series.5. The ice full light of the tube ice machine flashes quickly. Cause of failure: Indicates that the de-icing time exceeds the specified time, and the machine is automatically protected. Maintenance method of tube ice machine: Generally, in this case, it can be restarted. If it occurs repeatedly, you should check whether the skateboard swings up and down flexibly. If the two-way solenoid valve is damaged, this phenomenon will also occur. The machine can be refrigerated, but when the ice cubes reach the set thickness and enter the de-icing state, the water pump stops working and the ice cubes do not fall off. Forced de-icing is used during inspection (long press and hold the selection key) 3 seconds), if there is no obvious airflow sound in the ice maker, it can be considered that the two-way solenoid valve is broken. You can first check whether the power supply of the solenoid valve is normal. If the power supply is normal, you can replace the coil and test the machine. few. There is no water in the water tank of the tube ice machine, no water shortage, and loose ice cubes with impurities. Maintenance: The fault is because impurities in the water in the water tank will be left after many times of ice making, or the water is rich in minerals, which will cause scaling on the surface of the water level probe and affect the detection sensitivity of the probe. Drain the remaining water to clean the inside of the water tank and clean the probe surface.6. There is water in the water tank of the tube ice machine, indicating water shortage. Maintenance method: Check whether the two-core and three-core connectors in the control box are reliably connected, and re-plugging can generally solve the problem.7. The water flow of the water spray pipe of the tube ice maker is not smooth, and some ice cubes are incomplete: the cause of the failure: the hole of the water spray pipe is blocked; the maintenance method: in the state of ice making, use tweezers or other sharp objects to clean the water spray pipe the debris attached to the water outlet holes until the flow of water in each hole is unobstructed. 8. The ice of the tube ice maker machine is normal, but the ice is difficult to be de-iced or not de-iced: the reason for the failure: the two-way solenoid valve is not working or stuck; Press and hold the selection button for 3 seconds to enter the forced de-icing state, and touch the solenoid valve. If there is vibration, the ice can be de-iced several times, which can solve the problem of some solenoid valves stuck. If the problem still exists, the solenoid valve is damaged and the solenoid valve needs to be replaced.     

In 1748 Professor William Coulomb demonstrated the principle of artificial refrigeration in the laboratory of the University of Glasgow in Scotland. In 1850, Florida physicist John Gree showed the first ice machine at his private party. It marks the industrialization of artificial ice making. In 1929, Jüergen Hans, a professor of physics at the Technical University of Aachen (RWTHAachen) in Germany, invented the world's first tube ice machine in Cologne. In 1932, Külinda Company was established in Frankfurt to provide customized ice machine services for European royal families and top catering facilities. It marks the commercialization of artificial ice making. In 1950, A.P. Ferguson, the second son of Jüergen Hans, the founder of Collind, applied for a patent for a tube ice machine in the United States (2496155) and established Collind (USA) Company. The following year changed its name to Focusun (Ferguson) refrigerationCorp. In 1986, Shanghai Aquatic Products Company purchased China's first tube ice machine for food preservation.CBFI tube ice machine R&D history and certificates1. Started tube ice maker machine production in 2011.2. In 2015, 20 tons Freon tube ice machine was successfully developed 3. In 2019, Large Ammonia Tube Ice Machine CBFI has CE certificate for tube ice maker, and three inventional patents including tube ice making machine itself, a tube ice cutter, and a new kind of tube ice cutter.Large and medium-sized industrial tube ice making machinesWith modular design, it is easy to install, transport and operate. The whole machine consists of 3 parts:Evaporator part: Install the evaporator and some evaporator accessories, pipeline control valves, etc. on a steel frame to form a whole. The evaporator part of the tube ice is relatively high. During transportation, the "evaporator part" can be laid down as a whole and erected at the site for installation, which does not affect the normal use of the machine and meets the requirements of container transportation.Compressor unit part: including compressor, condenser, liquid accumulator, oil separator, gas separator, electric control box and other equipment, all installed on a steel frame to form a whole.Cooling tower part: cooling tower, cooling water pump and cooling water pipe.How Tube Ice Making Machines Make IceAfter the refrigeration system is in normal operation, the water in the lower water tank is transported from the water outlet to the water inlet of the upper water tank by the cold water pump. The water passes through the water separator and flows downward along the inner wall of the heat exchange tube in a spiral flow manner. The refrigerant outside the tube conducts heat exchange, and the temperature decreases. Part of the water forms tubular ice strips on the inner wall of the heat exchange tube. The unfrozen water returns to the lower water tank. The inner hole is also getting smaller and smaller.After a certain period of time, the water stops circulating, the refrigeration system switches to the deicing mode, the ice cutting mechanism operates, and the outer surface of the heat exchange tube becomes a high-pressure refrigerant hot gas. The hot gas exchanges heat with the tube ice on the inner wall of the tube, and the hot gas makes the tube ice and The contact part of the inner wall of the heat exchange tube melts, the tube ice loses its adhesive force, and falls into the ice cutting mechanism due to gravity, and is cut into one tube ice.

Today CBFI Teach you to buy an Ice Flake Maker Machine.1. Power SourceThe temperature maintenance and water freezers do need some good amount of power. Most of the commercial flakes need a bit high voltage which is beyond the normal voltage that is offered by your typical outlet wall. When you want to install your ice flake machine, you can speak with the electrician so that he can help you to confirm the power source that will be directed for the ice machine meets the requirements for the task.2. SpeedIt happens in the scenarios when you are rushing things, and you need to have an ice flake machine that produces a lot of ice very first meaning you need to consider the machine with a high production rate. Such machines produce new ices very quickly, enabling your supply level to continue moving without delays and accomplishes your needs in the rush hours hence saving you time.Every flake ice machine you want must have a rate of production so always make sure you have inquired concerning the same. They should inform you of the amount of ice produced in a day but also remember those calculations are as for the ideal environment. As for the hot environment, maybe the production rate will be somehow lower.It is not necessary that all kitchens should have high production rate machines. However, there are kitchens with large storage space that requires machines with a moderate rate of production. When you intend on keeping enough ice in your storage room consistently to meet your requirements, then you are good to go even for machines that make ice slower. As for smaller storage space, then machines with high production rate will be the best.3. CostEvery industry has a budget, meaning apart from needing a machine that will satisfy your needs, you should also consider the one within your budget. Ice flake machines tend to be costly when compared to others but you can opt to go for second hand or buy in installments. Apart from only considering the machine’s price, also consider all available factors in that machine that leads to that price. Consider energy and water usage, storage accessories, installation costs, and even the water filter.4. Ice CupA machine that is energy efficient may be costly, but in the long run, it may be cheaper. Some self-contained machines are costly when installing too, especially the under-counter ones, or maybe you buy the ice machine that has a remote condenser, that is costly in installation terms as well. You should take your time, consider the cost of installing various machines, but don't forget about their advantages in the long run since you can get a costly machine that is efficient in the long run and is assured that that is the best machine you can ever buy.5. Size and CapacityStrong ice takes more space so you should figure out the space you have to store ice and the amount of ice you are capable of storing. The kitchen might be tighter and having space for moving around is a necessity, but you can as well create enough space for your ice.For large ice quantity, you need a modular machine with a size-able storage bin. When you buy under-counter and counter-top machines, they save space but maybe what they produce may not be enough for you. You should get the right size and capacity so that you get the correct ice maker. For a small model, soon you must replace it so you should be cautious and buy a long lasting machine as well.6. Water SourceFor some unavoidable reason, the flake ice maker machine needs to be linked together with a water source which can deliver the required quantity of water in your machine. The water line codes must contain a valve for shutoff and be as per the codes that are in your area. When you want to replace the flake ice making machine, you need to have every requirement concerning the water source. If the one you want to install it in the new area, then you should have a plumber to work for you to ensure that your ice machine is properly hooked up.
