Charts
Cycle Times, 24 Hr. Ice Production and
Refrigerant Pressure Charts
These charts are used as guidelines to verify correct
ice machine operation.
Accurate collection of data is essential to obtain the
correct diagnosis.
• Refer to “Operational Analysis Chart” for the list of
data that must be collected for refrigeration
diagnostics. This list includes: before beginning
service, ice production check, installation/visual
inspection, water system checklist, ice formation
pattern, safety limits, comparing evaporator inlet/
outlet temperatures, hot gas valve analysis,
discharge and suction pressure analysis.
• Ice production checks that are within 10% of the
chart are considered normal. This is due to
variances in water and air temperature. Actual
temperatures will seldom match the chart exactly.
• Zero out manifold gauge set before obtaining
pressure readings to avoid misdiagnosis.
• Discharge and suction pressure are highest at the
beginning of the cycle. Suction pressure will drop
throughout the cycle. Verify the pressures are
within the range indicated.
