Features
  • The number one category of problems troubling an ice machine are water-related, and the most frequently is lime scale
  • As the water is frozen into ice during an ice maker’s cycle, the naturally occurring dissolved minerals in the water . . . some of which can combine to form lime scale . . . remain behind in the unfrozen recirculating ice water simply because water tries to freeze in its pure state
  • As the cycle continues and more water is made into ice, the minerals over concentrate and eventually precipitate as a lime scale deposit
  • As the scale begins to form, it creates a physical obstruction that results in: plugged distribution holes, restricted water flow and eventually the ice maker will hang-up or jam
  • Ice harvest is reduced and eventually the machine will shut down, requiring service
  • This sequence of events can affect both cubers and flakers
  • Some believe that flakers are free of scale problems since all of the water is made into ice
  • Not true. Flakers can scale-up as well, jamming the auger and eventually resulting in a broken belt or drive mechanism
  • Once the machine is scaled up, it must be cleaned, requiring the use of an acid so that the scale can be dissolved
  • Obviously, the acid must be effective in order to dissolve the scale but it must also be food grade and equipment-safe
  • Complete family of liquid ice machine cleaners
  • Formulated for use in all makes and models of ice makers including those with nickel and tin plated evaporaters
  • Functional in cubers, flakers, drum and tube machines
  • Food-grade, USDA-Accepted
