Operation method of adding salt to the ice machine

The purpose of adding salt to the ice machine is to make ice flakes easier to form, improve the quality of flake ice, make it more beautiful, easier to fall off, protect equipment, and reduce energy consumption. If no salt had been added, the ice sheet would have had a chance to screech. The following editor introduces the operation method of adding salt to the ice machine, welcome to read!

How to add salt to the ice machine:


1. Add appropriate amount of salt according to the salt ratio, ordinary edible salt is enough.

2. Pull out the outlet pipe of the brine pump from the water tank of the ice maker, and remove the air in the pipe. The specific method is to suck out the air from the brine pump outlet pipe with your mouth until you feel that there is salt water in your mouth, and then observe whether there is water dripping out of the brine pump outlet pipe. If there is even water dripping out, it is normal, and then insert the brine pump outlet pipe water tank.

3. Observe the size of the ice flakes. If the ice flakes are relatively large, it means that the brine has been added, and the ice machine is working normally.

4. If it is found that the ice flakes produced by the ice machine are relatively broken, the inside of the ice machine will be accompanied by the screeching sound of the ice knife cutting ice. If the salt water is not added to the water tank, repeat the operation according to step 1. If the problem is still not solved, please contact the manufacturer.

The brine adding device of the ice machine mainly includes a brine pump and a brine bucket. The brine pump is an adjustable flow pump, the outlet of which is connected to the water tank of the ice maker through a pipeline, and the inlet of the brine pump is connected to the brine storage tank through a pipeline. The power inlet end of the brine pump is connected in parallel with the power inlet end of the water pump of the ice machine to ensure that the brine pump and the water pump of the ice machine work synchronously. When the ice maker works to make the salt water and the fresh water for ice making merge, the flake ice produced has low brittleness, the size of the ice flakes increases, and makes the ice flakes beautiful and improves the quality of the ice flakes. The ice maker can easily cut the ice flakes.
