What role do the accessories of the flake ice machine play in the ice making process?

The flake ice machine has a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, an evaporator, a dry filter, a one-way valve, a solenoid valve, a stop valve, an oil pressure gauge, an electric box, a high and low pressure switch, and is composed of pumps and other accessories.

Function analysis of flake ice machine accessories:

1. The compressor of the flake ice machine provides power for the ice machine and is the heart of the ice machine. Inhale low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant and compress it into high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant.

2. Condenser, there are two kinds of condensers: air-cooled and water-cooled. It mainly relies on the fan to take away excess heat and cool the high-temperature steam refrigerant into a normal temperature liquid, which provides the necessary conditions for the evaporation of the ice machine. The difference and advantages and disadvantages of air-cooled and water-cooled condensers.

Dry filter is the cleaner of the ice machine, which can filter the water and residue in the ice making system to ensure the stable operation of the equipment.

The expansion valve consists of a valve body. It consists of a balance tube and a valve core. Its function is to throttle and expand the liquid refrigerant into vapor refrigerant, provide conditions for the evaporation of the ice machine, and adjust the flow rate of the refrigerant.

5. The evaporator of the flake ice machine, the evaporator of the commercial flake ice machine is known as the ice bucket, the water enters the sprinkling pipe of the evaporator, and the water is evenly sprinkled on the inner wall of the evaporator to form a water film. The water film exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the evaporator channel, the temperature drops rapidly, and thin ice forms on the inner wall of the evaporator. Under the extrusion of ice blades, it breaks into ice flakes and falls into the ice storage. Some of the unfrozen water flows from the return port through the baffle back to the cold water tank. Whether an ice machine manufacturer can produce evaporators is a symbol of the strength of an ice machine manufacturer.

6. Electric box, usually the electric box will be input into the control system to control the coordinated operation of each accessory. Electrical boxes usually have multiple relays. .Contactor.PLC is composed of controller, sequence protector, switching power supply and other accessories. The assembled electric box is much better than the circuit board. The system is stable, safe and reliable, easy to maintain, and the disadvantage is that the price is slightly expensive.

The one-way valve allows the refrigerant to flow in the designed direction and prevents the refrigerant from backflowing.

The solenoid valve of the flake ice machine controls the flow of refrigerant in the ice system. .Speed and pressure etc.

Flake ice machine ice storage, the ice storage is made of stainless steel, filled with insulation layer. Store the ice flakes to ensure that the ice flakes do not melt for 24 hours.
