During the ice-making stage, the hot gas solenoid valve is closed. The hot refrigerant gas is
pumped out off compressor to condenser. The hot gas is cooled by fan forced air to warm liquid
refrigerant after passing through the condenser. The drier & filter reduces the possible dirty and
humidity in the refrigerant. The evaporator is cooled by the refrigerant. So ice can formed on the
evaporator during water is sprayed to the evaporator. Low pressure refrigerant gas may go back
compressor from the evaporator.
During the ice harvest stage, the solenoid valve is open. The hot refrigerant gas is pumped out off
compressor to evaporator through hot gas valve. As the hot gas is not cooled by the condenser, the
refrigerant makes the evaporator (ice mold) warm. So some ice touching the evaporator is thawed.
All of ice can slide down to the ice storage bin.
