PLC controller Flake ice machine according to the water source, can be divided into freshwater flake ice machine and seawater flake ice machine. However, the freshwater flake ice machine will also add a certain proportion of saltwater, its concentration is much lower than seawater. The purpose of adding salt is to make borneol easier to form, improve its quality, the proper size of borneol, more beautiful, easier to fall off, protect equipment, and consume less electricity. Without salt, flakes of ice make a harsh sound.
The strength of ice is subjected to several factors, such as the thickness and temperature of the ice and the amount of salt in the ice. For instance:
Thick ice is usually more durable than thin ice.
Saltwater ice is not as strong as freshwater ice of the same thickness.
Compared to the ice of the same thickness, Ice that is near the melting temperature has much less strength but with lower temperature.
How to add salt to the water source of the flake ice maker?
Press the start/stop button to start the 2T sheet ice machine, add salt according to the above proportion of salt, fill the brine can with water, and stir evenly, then put the saltwater pump into the liquid pipe and put it into the brine tank.
What Should be Paid Attention to on the Salt?
After adding salt, observe the operation of the ice machine, the size of the ice, and the quality of the ice. If it is found that the flake ice produced by the ice machine is broken, the ice machine is accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking ice, indicating that no saltwater is added to the water tank. A common problem is the presence of air in the inlet and outlet water pipe, affecting the salt pump metering and salt accuracy. At this point, the air should be removed from the tube. The correct way is to suck the air out of the outlet pipe of the salt pump. When you feel saltwater in your mouth, check the outlet line of the salt pump for water droplets. If there is even water dripping indicates normal, then insert the saltwater pump outlet pipe into the water tank.
