Why is the head pressure too low in my Carrier Freezer?
Low head pressure in your Carrier Freezer could indicate a shortage of refrigerant. You should repair the leak and recharge the system.
Why is the product from my Carrier Freezer too stiff?
If the product from your Carrier Freezer is too stiff, it could stem from several issues. Start by ensuring proper lubrication of the torque rotor o-rings. Next, check the consistency control adjustment; product, without syrup, should dispense at 26 to 28_F (-3.3 to -2.2_C). A binding torque rotor can also cause stiffness; ensure it rotates freely before installing the torque arm. Not enough syrup being blended with the product is another potential cause, so calibrate the syrup system to deliver 1 oz. (29.6 ml.) in 6 seconds. Also, verify that the torque arm is installed correctly. Finally, a faulty compressor relay or torque switch could be the culprit, requiring replacement or repair.
Why is the head pressure too high in my Carrier TAYLOR 60 Freezer?
High head pressure in your Carrier Freezer can arise from several causes. It could be due to a refrigerant overcharge, or air in the system, requiring you to correct the refrigerant charge or purge and recharge the system. A dirty condenser or water loss can also contribute, so clean the condenser and check the water supply. The location being too warm, a non-operating blower (repair or replace the blower), or insufficient clearance around the freezer can also cause this problem. Consider moving the freezer to a cooler location and ensure adequate air clearance.
What to do if my Carrier Freezer won't operate in AUTO mode?
If your Carrier Freezer won't operate with the control switch in the AUTO position, start by ensuring the draw arm is raised momentarily to activate the system. Also, check if the beater motor is out on reset and reset the freezer if needed. Make sure the circuit breaker is on. For water-cooled units, verify that the water supply is established. Lastly, confirm that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall receptacle.
Why is the mix hopper in my Carrier TAYLOR 60 Freezer too warm?
If the mix hopper in your Carrier Freezer is too warm, it might be because the product was already too warm when placed in the hopper; check the temperature in the storage cooler. Also, ensure the control switch is in the AUTO position. You may also need to adjust the temperature.
Why is there excessive mix leakage in the rear drip pan of my Carrier Freezer?
Excessive mix leakage in the rear drip pan of your Carrier Freezer may be due to a worn or missing seal on the drive shaft, which should be replaced every 3 months. It could also be caused by inadequate lubrication of the drive shaft, so follow the lubrication procedures in the Operator's Manual. Another potential cause is a faulty rear shell bearing, which would need to be replaced.
Why is the liquid line frosted in my Carrier TAYLOR 60 Freezer?
A frosted liquid line in your Carrier Freezer indicates a restriction in the liquid line. Replace the line or remove the restrictions.
Why does the lift motor continue to raise the draw valve in my Carrier TAYLOR 60?
If the lift motor continues to raise the draw valve after dispensing product from your Carrier Freezer, the micro switch may need adjustment. Repair or replace the micro switch.
Why is the drive shaft stuck in the gear box coupling of my Carrier TAYLOR 60?
If the drive shaft is stuck in the gear box coupling of your Carrier Freezer, it could be because lubrication is on the hex end of the shaft (do not lubricate the hex end). Alternatively, the corners of the hex end of the drive shaft could be rounded (replace defective drive shaft), or the coupling corners on the gear box could be rounded (replace the gear box).
Why are the freezing cylinder walls scored in my Carrier TAYLOR 60?
Scored freezing cylinder walls in your Carrier Freezer may be due to the gear box being out of alignment, requiring you to realign it. It could also be caused by a bent beater assembly (repair or replace), a missing front bearing (replace the front bearing), or broken beater pins (replace the pins).
