3.3 IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDINGCLEANING AND SANITIZINGSoft serve and shake freezers require specialconsideration when it comes to food safety andproper cleaning and sanitizing.

The following information specifically covers issuesfor cleaning and sanitizing frozen dessert freezers.This information is meant to supplement acomprehensive food safety program.

Soil Materials Associated with Frozen DessertMachines

MILKFAT/BUTTERFAT – As components of ice-cream/frozen custard mix, these soils willaccumulate on the interior surfaces of the machineand its parts. Fats are difficult to remove and helpattribute to milkstone build-up.

MILKSTONE – Is a white/gray film that forms onequipment and utensils that come in contact withdairy products. These films will accumulate slowlyon surfaces because of ineffective cleaning, use ofhard water, or both. Milkstone is usually a porousdeposit, which will harbor microbialcontaminants and eventually defy sanitizingefforts.

Once milkstone has formed, it is very difficult toremove. Without using the correct product andprocedure, it is nearly impossible to remove a thicklayer of milkstone.(NOTE: general-purpose cleaners DO NOT removemilkstone.) This can lead to high bacteria countsand a food safety dilemma.

IT IS BEST TO CONTROL MILKSTONE ON ADAILY BASIS BEFORE IT CAN BECOME ASIGNIFICANT FOOD SAFETY PROBLEM.

In addition to food safety, milkstone can causepremature wear to machine parts which can add tocosts for replacement parts or possibly moreexpensive repairs if worn machine parts are notreplaced once they have become excessively worn.

Important Differences Between Cleaning andSanitizing

CLEANING vs. SANITIZINGIt is important to distinguish between cleaning andsanitizing. Although these terms may soundsynonymous, they are not. BOTH are required foradequate food safety and proper machinemaintenance.

CLEANING· Is the removal of soil materials from a surface.· Is a prerequisite for effective sanitizing.

NOTEAn UNCLEAN surface will harbor bacteria that candefy sanitizing efforts.

Bacteria can develop and resist sanitizing effortswithin a layer of soil material (milkstone). Thoroughcleaning procedures that involve milkstoneremoval are critical for operators of frozendessert machines.

SANITIZING· Kills bacteria.· Can be effective on clean surfaces only.· DOES NOT clean or remove milkstone.

NOTEUsing a SANTITIZER on an unclean surfacewill not guarantee a clean and safe frozendessert machine.

Proper Daily Maintenance:The Only Way to Assure Food Safety andProduct Quality

Proper daily maintenance can involve a wide varietyof products and procedures. Overall, the productsand procedures fall into three separate categories.(Please note that this is a brief overview intended forinformational purposes only.)1. CLEANING – This involves draining mix from the

freezer barrel and rinsing the machine withwater. Next, a cleaner is run through themachine. Then, the machine is disassembledand removable parts are taken to the sink forcleaning.

2. MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Since almost allcleaners do not have the ability to removemilkstone, the use of a delimer becomesnecessary. Although this procedure may not beneeded on a daily basis, it will usually follow thecleaning procedure. It requires letting a delimersolution soak in the machine for an extendedperiod of time. Individual parts are also soakedin a deliming solution for an extended period oftime (more about delimers in AdditionalInformation).

3. SANITIZING – After the machine has beencleaned and contains no milkstone, themachine is reassembled. Then a FDA-approvedsanitizing solution is run through the machine tokill bacteria. The machine is then ready for foodpreparation.

Page 22: Model U431 SERVICE MANUAL - static-pt.com

14

As a recommended cleaner and sanitizer for yourfrozen dessert machine, STERA-SHEEN has provento be one of the best daily maintenance products for:

· CLEANING – Thorough removal of all solidsincluding butterfat and milk fat.

· MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Complete removal ofmilkstone.

· SANITIZING – FDA-approved no rinse sanitizerfor food contact surfaces.

Additional Information

THE USE OF DELIMERSA delimer is a strong acid that has the ability todissolve milkstone. This type of chemical maybecome necessary once high levels of milkstonehave developed. While these products are veryeffective for removing HIGH levels of milkstone, theyare not ideal for two reasons:

1. PRODUCT SAFETY – Strong acids aredangerous chemicals and handling themrequires safety

2. MACHINE DAMAGE – Strong acids will attackmetal and rubber causing premature wear ofparts. The use of a delimer needs to be closelymonitored to avoid damage to machine surfacesand parts.

With proper daily use of STERA-SHEEN or it’sequivalent, there is no need for the use of aDELIMER.

DO NOT USE BLEACH· BLEACH HAS ABSOLUTELY NO CLEANING

PROPERTIES.· BLEACH IS CORROSIVE. It can and will

damage components of the machine causingpremature wear and metal corrosion.

GENERAL PURPOSE CLEANERS

General purpose cleaners do not have the ability toremove milkstone. Milkstone will become a problemif not remedied with additional products andprocedures.

THE USE OF CHLORINE TEST STRIPS

“Test strips” are used to determine concentrations ofactive chlorine in sanitizing solutions. To use thestrips, tear off a small portion and submerge it intothe sanitizing solution. Then, compare the colorchange to the color key on the side of the test stripdispenser to determine the approximate chlorineconcentration.

The ideal concentration of chlorine needs to be 100ppm (as stated by the FDA).

NOTEFollow the directions on the container for properconcentration.

There are two main factors that contribute to fallingchlorine concentrations in a sanitizing solution.

1. PRODUCT USE – As the chlorine in thesolution is being used, chlorine concentrationsfall.

2. TIME – As time passes, small amounts ofchlorine “evaporate” from the solution. (That iswhy you can smell it.)

Sanitizing solutions should not be allowed to fallbelow 100 ppm chlorine. New solutions should bemixed once old solutions become ineffective.

Wear Line

Before using the freezer for the first time, complete freezerdisassembly, cleaning and sanitizing procedures will needto be followed. Routine cleaning intervals and proceduresmust comply with the local and state health codes.Inspection for worn or broken parts should be made atevery disassembly of the freezer for cleaning or otherpurposes. All worn or broken parts should be replaced toensure safety to both the operator and the customer andto maintain good freezer performance and a quality prod-uct. Two normal wear areas are the auger flights and frontauger support bushing (see Figure 12).

The freezer is designed to dispense the product at areasonable draw rate. If the freezer is overdrawn, theresult will be a soft product and air pops. If this shouldoccur, allow the freezer to run for approximately 30seconds before dispensing additional product. After awhile the operator will sense or feel when the freezer isbeginning to fall behind, and will slow down on the rateof draw so as not to exceed the freezer's capacity.

Do not operate the freezer when the MIX LOW light ison or with less than 1-3/4" (4.4 cm) of mix in themix container. Refill the mix container immediately.

Figure 27. Dispensing Product

3.11 MIX INFORMATIONMix can vary considerably from one manufacturer toanother. Differences in the amount of butter-fat content andquantity and quality of other ingredients have a directbearing on the finished frozen product. A change in freezerperformance that cannot be explained by a technicalproblem may be related to the mix.

Proper product serving temperature varies from onemanufacturer's mix to another. Mixes should provide asatisfactory product in the 17° to 20°F (-7° to -6°C) range.Diet and low-carb mixes typically freeze to proper consis-tency at higher temperatures.

When checking the temperature, stir the thermometer inthe frozen product to read the true temperature.

Mix does not improve with age. Old mix, or mix that hasbeen stored at too high a temperature, can result in afinished product that is less than satisfactory from theappearance and taste standpoint. To retard bacteria growthin dairy based mixes, the best storage temperature rangeis between 36° to 40°F (2.2° to 4.4° C).

C. Place the mix pump switch in the ON position. Immediately open the spigot and let approximately 8ounces of liquid mix with sanitizing solution drainout of the spigot.

D. Close the spigot and open the air bleed valve on thefront door by pushing the valve in and holding. Allowthe barrel to fill until the mix level is 1/2" (2.7 cm)below air bleed valve, then release valve and pullclosed to lock in place.

E. Start the compressor and drive by placing theCLEAN-OFF-SERVE switch in the SERVE position

F. The product will be ready to serve after the compres-sor and drive have cycled off, or in approximately

12 minutes.

G. The refrigeration is automatically actuated whenthe spigot is opened. For normal dispensing, openthe spigot no more then 90°. (This is when thehandle knob is pointed directly away from the frontdoor.). This position provides excellent control overthe product and aids in making desired shapedportions. Spigot Rate Adjusters are located underthe Header Panel, to the immediate right of eachSpigot Handle. Turning the Spigot Rate Adjusterclockwise will increase the dispense rate.(see Figure 22)

C. The over-run adjustment is preset at the factory. If anadjustment becomes necessary, refer to Section 4.

3.12 OPERATION OF MIX PUMPThe pump switch is located on the front of the freezer.When the pump switch is placed in the ON position, the mixpump motor will be actuated to pump mix into the freezercylinder. When the set pressure is reached, the mix pumpwill shut off automatically. When the switch is placed in theOFF position, the mix pump will be inoperative.

NOTEThe mix pump motor is equipped with an internaloverload that will “trip”, disabling the pump when themotor is overloaded. Consult the trouble shootingsection for corrective information.The internal over-load will automatically reset after cooling. If the con-dition continues, contact a qualified service person.

CAUTION

Risk of Product DamageMix pump hose must be repositioned every 1 -2 weeksor 60 hours of operation. Failure to comply will resultin reduced mix pump liquid capacity, dispense stop-page, popping, and possible mix pump hose leak-age. Hose leakage may damage the pump roller as-sembly and void the factory warranty.

A. Mix Operation: The peristaltic mix pump containsone continuous mix pump hose. When looking at theface of the peristaltic mix pump, the left side of thehose is the suction or pickup. The right side of thehose is the discharge. Mix is drawn up the suctionside of the hose and transferred thru the dischargeside to the freezer (see Figure 23).

B. Air Operation: The air compressor operates wheneverthe peristaltic mix pump is running. Air enters thru acheck valve on the piston downstroke. The air isdischarged thru a second check valve, on the pistonupstroke. The air and mix join at the tee and thentravel to the freezer.

NOTICEAny cleaning procedure must always be followedby sanitizing before filling freezer with mix. (Refer tosection 3.3)

3.13 MIX PUMP CLEANINGThe mix pump is approved for CIP (clean in place) and isthoroughly cleaned as cleaning solutions are pumped thruthe freezer. We recommend completely disassemblingthe pump and connecting tubing every 14 days for inspectionof parts to confirm the CIP has been properly performed. Ifany residue is detected clean or replace those parts asoutlined below.

1. Place CLEAN-OFF-SERVE switch in CLEAN posi-tion. Allow the auger to agitate for 5 to 10 minutes.

2. Remove suction tube from mix container. Draw off themix remaining in freezer barrel.

3. Pump 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of cold potable water thrufreezer until water at spigot is free of mix.

4. Pump 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of 90° to 110°F (32°C to43°C) detergent solution water thru freezer. The useof soft water is recommended, along with dishwashingdetergents such as “Joy,” “Dawn,” or equivalent.

5. Place mix pump switch in OFF position. Open spigotto relieve remaining pressure.

6. Place CLEAN-OFF-SERVE switch in OFF position.

3.14 DISASSEMBLY AND INSPECTION OF REMOVABLE PARTS

Inspection of removable parts should be made whenevermaintenance is performed or pump requires disassembly.

SECTION 4MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

4.1 FREEZER ADJUSTMENTThis section is intended to provide maintenance person-nel with a general understanding of the freezer adjust-ments. It is recommended that any adjustments in thissection be made by a qualified person.

4.2 PRODUCT TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENTA potentiometer is used to control the product tempera-ture.

NOTEProper assembly of freezer, worn parts, leaks, proper"prime" level, clean condenser, worn drive belts allattribute to product temperature. Be sure your ma-chine is properly maintained before adjusting tem-perature, you may be masking another problem.

To change the temperature of the product, follow the stepsbelow:

A. Loosen the two screws under the header displaysign, then pull sign out and down.

B. Use a screw driver to make desired adjustment. Alabel near the potentiometer will give complete in-structions. Figure 26.

Figure 33. Potentiometer

4.3 OVERRUN ADJUSTMENTThe product when served is a combination of air and mix.Overrun is a measure of the amount of air blended into themix.

Overrun can be expressed in terms of the amount ofweight loss for a given volume. For example, if a pint ofliquid mix weighs 18 ounces and a pint of frozen productwith air added weighs 12 ounces, the overrun is said to be50 percent (18 oz. - 12 oz. = 6 oz., (6/12) x 100 = 50%.

The overrun can be checked by placing a one pintcontainer on an ice cream scale and zeroing out the scale.Then fill a one pint container with frozen product. Thecontainer should be filled over the top and leveled with astraightedge. The product should not contain any airpockets. When weighed on an ice cream scale, one pintof product should weigh 12 to 13 ounces.

The mix pump has been preset at the factory to produce aproduct with approximately 40% overrun. Because ofdifferences in mix formulation, temperatures and baro-metric pressure, this figure may vary. It will be necessaryfor approximately 2 gallons of mix to be pumped thru thefreezer before changes in the product are noticeable dueto adjustments in overrun.

Overrun is controlled by the length of the air compressorpiston stroke within the piston cylinder. Lengthening thestroke within the cylinder will increase overrun. Con-versely, shortening the stroke will decrease overrun. Toperform an overrun adjustment, refer to the followingprocedure:

A. Turn the mix pump switch to the OFF position.Disconnect power sources/circuit breakers.

B. Remove the lower back panel from freezer.

C. On air compressor side of pump, locate the long/slender piston rocking arm. The rocking arm down-ward travel is limited by a stationery cam. On the faceof the cam there is an overrun setting indicator platenumbered 3 thru 8 and an adjustment knob.Figure 27.

D. The overrun setting is indicated by a pointed pin.

E. To adjust overrun, loosen the allenhead screw(located within the center of the adjustment knob)with the 5/32" allen wrench provided. Rotate theadjustment knob counterclockwise to a highernumber for higher overrun, or clockwise to a lowernumber for lower overrun. Each number multiplied by10 represents the overrun percentage (ie: #4 = 40%overrun).

4. Grasp the discharge hose end with one handand turn the pump on. Pull down on the hoseuntil all of the remaining hose is removed fromthe pump.

5. Turn pump roller assembly so one roller is at6:00.

F. Tighten the allen screw, then place the wrench backin its clip. Replace the lower back panel and securewith the four screws. Turn the mix pump power switchto the ON position.

4.4. MIX PUMP HOSE REPOSITION (every one ortwo weeks.)

NOTEMix pump hose must be repositioned every 1 - 2weeks. Failure to comply will result in reduced mixpump liquid capacity, dispense stoppage, popping,and possible mix pump hose leakage.

Find a system that works for you. Operating untilhose breaks shortens pump life, causes downtimeand increases cleaning costs. Hours of (pump)operation approx. 60, Gallons of (material), Timeframe = Bi-Weekly.

1. Run cleaning solution through pump.

2. Turn pump off and relieve any pressure byopening the spigot.

3. Grasp the pick-up hose end of the mix pumphose with one hand and turn the pump on. Pulldown on the pick-up hose end until 12 to 14inches of tubing has reversed fed through thepump, then turn the pump off.

4. Loosen small clamp at the pick-up hoseadapter and (viewed from back) disconnectmix pump hose.

5. Cut 7-1/2 inches off the end of the mix pumphose.

6. Reconnect mix pump hose to adapter.

7. Continue normal operation. Mix hose willautomatically reposition itself with adapter nearblack cover.

NOTEEach hose is long enough for 3 repositions beforereplacement is required. Record each event onHose Service Record decal.

4.5 MIX PUMP HOSE REPLACEMENT

NOTEMix pump hose must be replaced when tubing can-not be further repositioned (every four to eightweeks). Failure to comply will result in hose failureand possible pump damage.

1. Run cleaning solution through pump.

2. Turn pump off and relieve any pressure byopening the spigot.

WARNINGTHE MIX PUMP SWITCH MUST BE IN THE “OFF”POSITION WHEN SERVICING OR CLEANINGPUMP.

SECTION 6ELECTRICAL CONTROL SYSTEM

Figure 46. Front Electrical Box Close Up

Figure 47. Electrical Panel Screws

6.1 CONTROL SYSTEMThe control system is the "brain" of the freezer. To under-stand how to service the freezer, it is essential to under-stand how the control system operates. The control sys-tem used on the Model U431 Freezer has one tempera-ture control per barrel.

NOTEThe cab has a separate temperature control foundbehind the left side panel.

To gain complete access to the front control box and itscomponents, perform the following procedures:

1. Loosen the two Phillips head screws from the bottom ofthe decorative panel and pull the panel out and down.

The front control box and its components are now com-pletely accessible and any necessary testing and adjust-ing can now be done. Figures 38 and 39.

NOTESubsections 6.1 through 6.6 will deal specificallywith the control system.

To provide easier access to components inside or on theback side of the electrical box, remove the four phillipshead screws holding the box to the frame. The electricalbox can now be positioned as necessary to service thecomponents. The side panel can be removed to aid inpositioning the box for servicing. Figure 40.

Figure 45. Front Electrical Box

A. Indicator Lights

1. The red indicator light when illuminated indicates thatthe temperature control is receiving power.

2. The yellow light when illuminated indicates that the hightemperature relay (day/night, cut in at 29°F, out at19°F) has been activated.

3. The green light when illuminated indicates that the lowtemperature relay (serve position, cut in at 22°F, out at6°F) has been activated.

B. Sequence of Operation

1. The red light is illuminated whenever the board isfurnished with power.

2. At start-up, power to the freezer is switched on (anytemperature) - red and yellow come on.

a. If the standby-serve switch is in "serve position",then as the high relay low set point is satified, theyellow light goes off. Green light illuminates. Whenlow relay low set point is satisfied, green light goesoff. Yellow and green are both off. The green light willcycle on and off with the system upon spigot openingor call from the temperature sensor.

Page 44: Model U431 SERVICE MANUAL - static-pt.com

36

b. If the standby-serve switch is in the "standbyposition", then as the high relay low set point issatisfied, the yellow light goes off; the green lightilluminates. On the next temperature cycle, whenrefrigeration is required, the yellow light will illumi-nate as the compressor starts and the green light willgo out. When satified, the yellow light goes out, andthe green light illuminates.

3. When the freezer is in the normal serve mode (not initialstart-up) and the yellow and green lights are off.

a. Switch from "serve" to "standby". When the low relayhigh point is reached, the green light will illuminate,but no equipment is switched on. When the highrelay high set point is reached, the yellow lightilluminates as the compressor starts and the greenlight goes out. When the high relay low set point issatisfied, the yellow light goes out and the green lightilluminates, and they alternate like this until switchedback to the "serve" mode.

4. Freezer in the normal night mode. Yellow light off; greenlight on.

a. Switch from the "standby" to the "serve" mode. Thegreen light remains illuminated while the compressorruns. When the low relay low set point is satisfied,the green light goes out. Both lights are now off.

C. Temperature Control SensorThe thermistor sensor is used to sense the temperature ofthe suction line. As the suction line temperature de-creases, the internal resistance of the thermistor willincrease. The temperature control board will compare thethermistor resistance with an established resistance onthe control board. When the resistances are equal, thecircuit board will shut off the compressor. A phenomenonin the thermistor sensors is that resistance values can bedifferent at any given temperature depending upon whetherthe temperature (just before a reading is taken) has beenrising or dropping. Readings are especially difficult topredict if the temperature is rising. However, if the tempera-ture is dropping, resistances are predictable. Therefore,

before checking the resistance in a sensor, always makecertain the temperature in the sensor is dropping. Whentroubleshooting a sensor, remove the blue wire from thecircuit board and the blue wire from the night/serve switchor terminal board. The internal resistance between the twowires should be 1,000 +/- 400 ohms when the sensor is at70°F. If the resistance is not within this range, replace it.In most cases, if there is a sensor failure, it will be shortedout (0 resistance) or open (infinite resistance).

6.2 CURRENT SENSORThe current sensor is used to activate the condenser fancontactor (air cooled only).

6.3 CONTACTORSThe compressor and drive contactors are mounted insidethe electrical box. The left side compressor has twocontactors. One contactor activates the compressor tofreeze the barrel and the other contactor activates thecompressor to cool the cab. The right side compressor andthe two drive motors have one contactor each. There is onecontactor to start the condenser fan motors (air cooledonly).

The temperature control sends an electronic signal totrigger the contactors. The electronic signal tells when tooperate the contactor for the compressor. A separatesignal is used to control the drive motor contactors. Thesignals to the contactors are staggered so the drive motorwill always start and stop two or three seconds before thecompressor and condenser fan. By staggering the stop-ping and starting of the drive motor, maximum startingtorque is available and voltage spikes are reduced. Thecondenser fan motor contactor gets it's signal from acurrent sensor (air cooled only).

6.4 DRIVE MOTORThe drive motors are designed specifically for the U431freezers. The drive motors are used to rotate the augerassemblies. For single phase, the start and run capacitorsare located on the motor. An internal, normally closed,centrifugal switch starts the drive motor. The motors havean internal thermo overload.

8.4 TROUBLESHOOTING THE CHALLENGER TEMPERATURECONTROL AND SENSOR

The specifications given are for thecircuit Board PN 296657 using the1/8” x 1” stainless steel sensor withblue wires.

This is a guide to troubleshooting the chal-lenger type temperature control with out remov-ing the sensor wires and therefore allowing thefreezer to run while checking. Using this methodyou can determine if the problem is the sensor,circuit board or super heat setting. We havefound many good sensors are replaced be-cause the ohm reading was not correct, when infact it wasn’t the sensor at all; the superheatwas to high or low causing that reading. Usingthe control voltage reading after the potentiom-eter and sensor, and the suction gas tempera-ture we can pinpoint the problem.

FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW TOTROUBLESHOOT:

Warning Disconnect FromSource Of Electrical SupplyBeforeServicing

• Freezer must have a full barrel of productand be frozen down if possible.

• Remove front header panel and sidepanel.

• Verify voltage at terminals 1&2 on thecircuit board. The voltage should be about24 volts AC.

• Check serve potentiometer, it must be setat 2000 ohms, (Be sure power is off) (Fig.1).

• Connect Volt/ohm meter to terminal 8 and2nd solder spot (Fig. 2). You must havegood contact. The meter should read volts(V) DC not milli volts (mV).

• Remove insulation from around suctionline at rear of evaporator (barrel). Makesure line is clean; we need a good cleancontact surface. Turn on thermometer andfirmly press the surface probe to thesuction line to read suction temperature. Ifyou have a clamp type surface probe,clamp to suction line (Fig. 3 & 4). Readmeters on off cycle after 1 minute. Note:Clamp on meters will yield the mostaccurate measurements.

• Compare the voltage reading to the suc-tion gas temperature using the chart foundon page 3-62.
