9. Hydra Icebank Control Go/No Go Test
This is a test to simulate the building and erosion of the icebank; to determine if the icebank control is
operating correctly. The test assumes that all other components in the refrigeration system (e.g. high
pressure cut-out reset) are in an operational condition.
Warning
230VAC is present on terminals N, A, ON 1, ON 2 terminals.
Work should only be performed by fully trained & certified
Electrical, Plumbing & Refrigeration Technicians.
1.
Remove the ice bank probe connections from
terminals J5, J6, J7.
2.
Connect alligator jumper to terminals J5, J6, J7. Ice
bank control relay should close and refrigeration
system start.
(Simulates water covering all probes)
3.
With refrigeration system operating (ice bank control
relay energised) remove alligator jumper from
terminal J6. Refrigeration system should continue to
operate.
(Simulates ice growth over green probe. Water still
contacting red and black probes)
4.
With refrigeration system operating, remove alligator
lead from terminal J5.
Refrigeration system should stop.
(Simulates ice growth over black probe only)
