I. Introduction
A. General Information
1. The system is operated automatically and all processes are controlled by
the PLC (SIEMENS CPU 224).
2. There is one main electrical panel with a TP177 touch screen panel. All
messages and information about system alarms are shown on the
TP177. All messages are displayed in ENGLISH.
3. The system is designed to produce slurry with an ice fraction of 50%.
4. The system is designed to operate at a salinity of 3.5% or higher. If
needed, a Sunwells representative will determine the initial addition of
salt at the start-up of the system.

OPERATION - PAGE 11 OF 15
A. System Start-Up
1. Make sure the control panel is powered (the pilot light is on) and the
emergency shutdown button is pulled out.
2. Make sure the compressor crankcase is warm. (i.e. the system has to be
powered for at least 4 hours for warming up the compressor crankcase). See
the compressor service guide (provided in the OEM Manual section) for more
details.
B. Ice Making
1. To begin put the Ice Making switch in the On position (the PLC program will
start making ice in the Silo. If there are no alarms in the system, the TP177
display will show the real time clock and the "SUNWELL TECHNOLOGIES -- DEEPCHILL --- " strings.
2. If the silo is not full of ice and the low water alarm is OFF, the Circulation
pump between the silo and the Ice Generator (IG) will start. The pump will
keep running if there are no system alarms (e.g. overload, temperature, level
in Mix tank, etc.).
3. The system will simultaneously send a signal to start the IG condenser water
pump to start and start the IG Agitator motor and condenser water pump.
4. Compressors will start 4 seconds after, if:
The agitator motor, condenser water pump, and circulation pump are
running
There is enough salt in the silo: Default SP 4.0%
Compressor pressures are normal
Silo is not full of ice
5. If the salinity inside the tank is less than 4.0% for 10s the IG compressors will
be stopped. When the salinity inside the silo is above 4.0% for 30 seconds
the pump will stop.
6. Ice making will stop when the silo is full of ice.
7. To stop the Ice Making, turn the Ice Making switch to the Off position. This
will result in the consecutive stop of each device involved in the Ice Making
process. The stop order will be opposite to the one described at the
beginning of the current chapter (see paragraphs 2 to 4 above).
When the salinity in the silo goes above 6.5%, the system will desalinate the silo.
Desalination entails draining cold high salinity water from the silo through a heat
OPERATION - PAGE 12 OF 15
exchanger. On the other side of the heat exchanger the system will pump warm
seawater (about 3.5 4.5% salinity). This process helps retain the energy spent to
cooling the water. In the case where the warm water is chilled too much by the cold
high salinity water the system will have the cold high salinity water by pass the chiller
to prevent the warm seawater from freezing in the heat exchanger.
C. Ice Delivery
Put the Ice delivery switch in the ON position. The system will indicate that it is
ready to deliver ice by a solid green LED on the remote control panel. The
system will indicate that it is not prepared to deliver ice by a blinking green LED
or a solid red LED on the Remote Control Panel. A green blinking LED indicates
that there is a temporary alarm, such as low ice in the silo. The temporary ice
delivery alarm will disappear with time. A solid red LED indicates that there is a
permanent alarm that must be repaired before delivery can begin check the
TP177 for alarm messages.
To start ice delivery press the solid green LED button for 3 seconds. The green
LED button will now be blinking indicating that the system is delivering ice.
The sequence for ice delivery is as follows:
1. Harvester will start and the make-up water valve will open
2. As ice is detected at the harvester the valve for the remote location will open
and delivery will begin
3. Chute water valve will open
This process may take a minute depending on the level of the iceberg.
The delivery process will last until the silo is empty, or the green blinking LED is
pressed for 1 second to turn Off the delivery process.
C. Chiller
1. To begin put the Chiller switch in the On position (the PLC program will start
making ice in the Silo. If there are no alarms in the system, the TP177
display will show the real time clock and the "SUNWELL TECHNOLOGIES -- DEEPCHILL --- " strings.
2. The chiller pump (between the Chilled water silo and the chillers) will start
3. The system will then send a signal to start the Chiller condenser water pump
4. The compressor will start at 50% capacity in 30sec, if there are no alarms
and the temperature at the exit of the chiller is above 8C (the High
temperature alarm this can be set on the TP)
5. There are 3 level of operation for the chillers they are 0 which is off, 1 which
is running at 50% capacity, and 2 which is running at 100% capacity.
OPERATION - PAGE 13 OF 15
D. System Protection
The system has an auto harvest option to prevent the iceberg surface from
becoming hard. Auto harvest only works when the ice delivery switch is on. If
ice has been stored for 24 hours without being harvested, ice will be
automatically discharged for 5 minutes. The 24 hours and 5 minute timers can
be changed on setup screen #3 (Section I. B. TP177 Screen Functions screen
# 12). On this screen, auto harvest can also be disabled.
The system has an auto washout cycle every 60 minutes. The washout cycle
time is 100 seconds.
Please note that there will be no washouts while the system is in chilling mode
(products temperature is above +4C). When the temperature is lowered below
+3C and the system is entering ice-making mode, there will be an initial washout
cycle performed during 1 min after the ice-making mode is confirmed.
Afterwards, the regular 60 min. washout cycles will commence.
The stated pressure is valid for condensing water temperature below 24C.

SAFETY
C. System Modification
No modification can be made to the IG unit without the prior consent of the manufacturer. For
your safety, use spare parts and accessories authorized by the manufacturer. The use of other
parts exempts the manufacturer from any and all responsibility
SAFETY
II. Precautions
A. General
Installation, maintenance and servicing of this equipment can be hazardous due to system
pressures, electrical components and equipment location. When working on the equipment,
observe all precautions in the manuals, tags, stickers and labels attached to the equipment and
any other safety precautions that apply.
Read and follow the manufacturers instruction.

B. Electrical
y The power supply, voltage, frequency and phase must coincide with specifications on all
motor (compressor, wiping mechanism, drive, harvester, pumps etc.) and electrical
panel nameplates.
y Field wiring must comply with local and national codes.
y All wiring should be guarded against abrasion.
y All switches should be of the sealed type, recommended by the manufacturer for use in
wet environments.
y Electrical cables connecting split units should have a watertight cable cover, or should
be run in conduit.
y All wiring should be fastened securely to prevent chafing, and should be clearly identified
by wire marking and/or following the applicable color code.
y For the safety of operating and maintenance personnel, the electrical system should be
grounded to the frame, and the frame in turn grounded to the ground. All components
SAFETY
should be grounded from one to the other. Cables to remote sources of power should
carry an extra wire for grounding purposes at the supply end.
y Installing emergency stop switch (or multiple switches in series if necessary) on or
around the machine of the system is highly recommended. This switch should be hardwired between "manual/auto/off" switches and motor starter coils in the motor starter
control circuits of individual motors. The engagement of any of these switches will
immediately stop the relevant motor.
y Installing individual lockable safety stop switches on, around or within sight of all the
motors is highly recommended. The switch(es) should be hard-wired on or interlocked
with the "live" line supplying the control circuitry of the complete system (a machine,
multiple machines or the entire plant). The engagement of this "master" switch (or any
of the multiple switches) will result in immediate and complete shut down of the entire
system and all of its components.
C. Refrigerant System
y Absolute cleanliness is essential in a refrigeration system in order to insure a reliable,
trouble free operation. Take extreme care to keep foreign materials out of the system
when it is opened for service.
y Never heat the equipment.
y Never expose refrigerant cylinders/jackets to the direct sunlight.
y Never place an electric resistance heater in direct contact with a refrigerant jacket.
y Never apply a direct flame to a jacket.
y Never weld onto equipment charged with refrigerant.
y Do not damage, dent, or otherwise abuse refrigeration cylinders/jackets. Always keep
the valve cap and head cap in place when the cylinder is not in use. Always open all
refrigerant valves slowly.
y The system contains refrigerant under pressure. Never tamper with safety cutout
pressure settings.
D. System Operation
WARNING: Before performing any maintenance or inspection, make certain that all power
has been disconnected and locked in the OFF position. The system/machine is
under automatic control. It can start at any moment without warning!
Installation, start-up and servicing of this equipment can be hazardous due to system pressures,
electrical components and equipment location. When working on the equipment, please follow
all general precautions listed in Part A.
SAFETY
The water supply, which is entering the ice generating system, must equip with a properly
selected filter and/or strainer to prevent solid impurities or particles (e.g. sand or corrosion dirt
that might score wiped heat exchanger surfaces). These foreign matters may accumulate on
the IG inner surface and seize wiping mechanism bearings and bushings, thus overload the
wiping mechanism drive motor.
When the system is not in operation, engage and lock all field on/off safety switches to the
OFF position. This applies to all pumps, electrical motors and compressors. Please realize
that motor starters for the above equipment can be located in various enclosures such as
individual motor starter boxes, control panels, Motor Control Centre (MCC) cubicles or
compartments. It is recommended to turn all the selector switches on control circuits on all
related motor starter enclosure covers (doors) to OFF or, if not available, manual position.
During extended shut down periods when the system is unmanned, it is recommended to put all
the circuit breakers on power lines as well as on control lines inside all related motor starter
enclosures to OFF position.
If the system is to be shut down during the winter, and if the ambient temperatures may drop
below freezing point (0C) when the system is not in operation, the binary liquid should be
drained to eliminate a possibility of freeze-up and damage to the system.
Receiving
INSTALLATION
Receiving
INSTALLATION
The unit should be placed on a flat, level foundation that is suitable for supporting heavy
equipment. It should be mounted level to within 10mm/m (1/8 per foot). Locate near drain unit.
The following figure shows the tilting diagram of an IG tube.
Piping
INSTALLATION
I. General Guidelines
A. Checklist
All piping should be done in accordance with local codes and must follow good piping
practice.
All pipes should be plumb, level and done in a neat workmanlike manner.
When a pipe is cut, de-burr internal and external edges before joining, to insure smooth
flow for ice.
Inspect all openings for foreign material
Remove all plugs, caps and shipping covers
NOTE:
DO NOT expose the internal surfaces of the equipment to the atmosphere for long
periods of time. Moisture or contaminates may enter the units and cause corrosion
or damage.
B. Piping Units
Pipe clamping should be given an allowance for free movement so as to allow the pipe
to contract freely to the applicable low temperatures.
Piping should be set up to connect all equipment as shown in the piping diagram(s) (P &
ID). All piping material and layout recommendations provided by the manufacturer
should be carefully followed.
NOTE:
If you cannot follow the diagrams, for any reason, please advise the manufacturer,
providing an outline of your proposed piping layout.
All piping should be properly secured, supported and should be sloped to provide proper
drainage by gravity if needed.
Connections on the ice-generating unit are not intended to be used as piping anchor
points. NO external piping loads should be transmitted to the unit.
Allow sufficient space in the piping layout to drain the equipment at the lowest points.
Piping
INSTALLATION
After all the piping is complete, the entire system should be pressure tested. For a satisfactory
system, the installation must be leak tight.
Water pressure must not be greater than 1000 kPa (150 psig) -- check for leaks.
As a further check, it is recommended that the pressure be kept on the system for 8
hours a noticeable drop in the pressure is an indication of a leak in the system.
Adequately insulate all the piping (i.e. ice generator supply the return lines) to prevent
condensation and excessive heat gain. Recommended method is 3/8 thick Armaflex insulation
or equal.
B. Piping Accessories
All water sources to the ice generator piping should be equipped with properly selected filter
and/or strainer to prevent solid impurities or particles which may score the internal surface from
entering the ice generator tubes and other heat transfer surface. The filter or strainer should be
capable of removing all sand, weld slag, rust and objects larger than 0.4 mm (1/64)
Piping
INSTALLATION
WARNING: Piping must not be subjected to any impact, load and/or stress as it may
become brittle at low temperature. Socket or flange type connections are
recommended for all joints. Any excessive glue must be removed to avoid
forming a reducing rim inside the pipe. Pipeline diameter reduction is not
allowed in all ice line without the approval from the manufacturer.
B. Piping Accessories
Fittings should be used for ice slurry piping:
Long radius elbow, or 3R elbows (not short radius)
Y connections (not T connections)
Fittings should be used for all welded piping:
Butt weld fittings or
Socket weld fittings
Full bore type ball valves should be used on all ice slurry piping. Butterfly, diaphragm, pinch or
gate valves may be used for low concentration slurry lines. DO NOT use:
8 Backing rings
8 Threaded fittings
8 Globe valves
B. Piping Accessories
The water supply line should be equipped with an adequate filter or strainer to remove all
solid impurities and to prevent fouling of the condenser.
Where hard water is used, adequate treatment should be provided to prevent scaling.
The water piping system requires an appropriate method of controlling the water
temperature and/or flow rate.
Piping
INSTALLATION
C. Piping
Open outlet water drain is recommended to monitor condenser fouling.
For installations where there are multiple units, do not pipe the outlet connections to a
common manifold this makes it difficult to determine if the individual condensers are
operating properly.
Electrical
INSTALLATION
I. System Wiring
A. Guidelines & Recommendations
Check the supply voltage, power, frequency and phase of each motor (compressor and
electric motors). They must coincide with the specifications listed on the equipment
nameplates.
Field wiring should be done carefully and comply with all local codes. The wiring should
be connected in accordance with the electrical wiring diagram(s).
The power and control wiring should run in separate conduits. In some cases the
electrical fields created by the higher voltage power wiring can affect the controls.
All electrical equipment should be properly grounded in compliance with local codes. The
grounding system should have a resistance of not more than 10 ohms.
B. After Installation
After completing the connections, check for proper direction of rotation of:
The ice generators drive motors
The ice generator circulation pumps
The condenser water pumps
All other pumps and rotating equipment
Before starting the equipment, the quality of the supply voltage and ampere must be checked.
The supply voltage must be within 10% and the phase imbalance must not exceed 2% of the
equipment nameplate rating. Total amperage supplied to the system must meet the minimal
requirement as stated in Sunwells electrical system design notes. If a problem exists, contact
your local electric utility company before starting the equipment.
Make sure all the cables or wires, which are exposed to outdoor weather, are covered properly.
For example, in system with storage tank unit, the cable from level probes to electrical panel
has to be shield.

1. IG Maintenance
I. General Information
Preventive maintenance is essential to ensure a reliable operation of the system. In general,
maintaining good housekeeping in and around the ice generator (IG) will pay dividends with
respect to general appearance and reduce nuisance faults. Table 1.1 is a summary of the type
of services and their occurrences.
NOTICE:
The brine solution used maybe concentrated and thus prolong exposure to
brine solution may cause corrosion to many metals, and as such, any
spillage or leaks of salt or brine solution should be swept away and hosed
down as soon as practical.
WARNING: Before the system components are taken apart for inspection, make sure
the power supply, condensing water and brine make-up to the IG is
disconnected and isolated. The ice/brine mixture in the IG tube and piping
should be drained.

MAINTENANCE
B. Sheaves
Smooth and Uniform
y Keep all sheave grooves smooth and uniform
y Burrs and rough spots along the sheave rim can damage belts.
y Dust, oil and other foreign matter can lead to pitting and rust should be avoided as much as
possible.
Shinny Groove Bottom
y This indicates that either the sheave, the belt or both are badly worn and the belt is bottoming
in the groove.
y Badly worn grooves cause one or more belts to ride lower than the rest of the belts
differential driving.
Differential Driving
y A sure sign of differential driving is when one or several belts on the tight side are slack.
y The belts riding high in the grooves travel faster than the belts riding low in a drive under
proper tension.
Drive Alignment
y Improperly aligned sheaves cause excessive belt and sheave wear.
y When the shafts are not parallel, belts on one side are drawn tighter and pull more than their
share of the load.
y Overloaded belts wear out faster, reducing the service life the entire set.
y If misalignment is between the sheaves, belts will enter and leave the grooves at an angle,
causing excessive cover and sheave wear and premature failure.
MAINTENANCE
C. Belts
Cleaning
y Belt should be wiped with a dry cloth occasionally to remove any build-up of foreign material.
y If the belts were splattered with grease and/or oil, clean them with methyl chloroform or soap
and water.
Belt Tension
y Belts that are too loose will slip, causing excessive belt and sheave wear.
y Belts that sag too much are snapped tight suddenly when the motor starts or when peak
loads occur.
Alignment
y If drive shafts are not parallel, belts on one side are drawn tighter and pull more than their
share of the load. These belts will wear out faster as a result.
y If sheaves are not aligned, belts will enter and leave the grooves at an angle, causing
excessive belt cover and sheave wear.
D. Bearing
Hot Bearing
y Could be due to improper lubrication.
y Could also be due to improper drive tension either too tight or too loose.
MAINTENANCE
II. Installation
A. Installing Belts
WARNING:
1. Shorten the center distance between the driven and driver sheave so the belts can be put on
without the use of force. This can be done by adjusting the bolts on the agitator mount.
2. While the belts are still loose on the drive, rotate the drive
until all the slack is on one side. Then increase the center
distance until the belts are snug. The drive is now ready for
tensioning.
Fig 2.1
Note:
Never roll or pry the belts into the sheave grooves. This can damage
the belt cords and lead to belt turnover, short life or actual breakage.
Moreover, it is both difficult and unsafe to install belts this way.

Brine System
BS-90
I. System Description
It is essential to maintain the brine make-up solution (salt solution that is feeding into the ice
generator) of an ice system at a specific salinity range. The brine system is an auxiliary unit that
make-up and maintains the salinity in an ice system within the optimal operating range. Brine
system BS-90 is an open-top tank type that contains concentrated brine solution and allows the
user to refill at anytime. When the conductivity cell (at the pump station) senses a low salinity in
the brine make-up, the motorized ball valve that controls the flow from brine tank will open.
Concentrated brine will be fed into the brine make-up to recoup the salinity. The brine tank is
used in freshwater ice systems as well as some seawater ice systems.
