26 Horizon 1650R/N Ice Machines
“Bin full” detection system
The Follett Horizon ice machine incorporates a unique “bin full” detection system, that consists of the shuttle and
actuator. The shuttle incorporates a  ag and sensor. Referencing the  gure below, the normal running position of
the  ag is down, out of the sensor. When the bin  lls to the top and ice can no longer move through the tube, the
machine will force the shuttle  ag up into the sensor, shutting the machine off. The shuttle actuator, located above
the ice bin allows the ice to curl up within it when the bin is full to contain any forces. In this way, there are no loads
generated that would tend to lift off the lid of the bin.
