• Safety Requirements for Using Direct Cooling Block Ice Machines in Ice Block Factories

  Apr 28, 2024

  At BAOCHARM, we not only sell high-quality big block ice machines, but we also provide comprehensive information to facilitate a safe and efficient operation. This article delves into the safety requirements for using a direct cooling block ice machine in an ice block factory, as stipulated by various GB/T standards.   General Requirements   Every block ice machine should comply with the safety requirements outlined in GB/T 5226.1. This ensures the machine's efficient operation and the safety of its operators.   Refrigeration System Safety   The safety performance of the refrigeration system of a block ice machine should meet the stipulations of GB/T9237. This guarantees that the cooling process is safe and reliable, contributing to the overall efficiency of the ice block manufacturing process.   Mechanical Safety   The block ice machine's design should ensure reliable stability during normal transportation, installation, and usage. It should possess adequate mechanical strength. The machine should have protective covers or nets over parts that can be touched during normal operation and high-temperature components. This provides protection to operators, preventing contact with dangerous operating parts and high-temperature components during testing.   Electrical Safety   Protection Against Electric Shock: The block ice machine's protection against electric shock should meet the requirements stipulated in GB/T5226.1. Temperature Limit: The temperature of the motor coil, measured using the resistance method when the block ice machine is supplied with the most unfavorable voltage within 90%~110% of the rated voltage range under the stipulated high-temperature operation conditions, should not exceed the temperature specified by the insulation level of the motor. The temperature of parts and shells that may be touched should not exceed 70℃, and other parts should not have abnormal temperature rises. Leakage Current: The leakage current of the exposed metal parts and power cord of the block ice machine should not exceed 0.75 mA as tested according to GB 4706.13. Electrical Strength: The block ice machine should not have puncture or flashover when a specified voltage is applied between live parts and the protective grounding circuit according to GB/T5226.1. Insulation Resistance: When a DC voltage of 500V is applied between the power circuit conductor and the protective grounding circuit of the block ice machine according to GB/T5226.1, the measured insulation resistance should not be less than 2MΩ. Grounding Resistance: The block ice machine should have a reliable grounding device and clear marking. It should meet the relevant regulations when tested according to GB/T5226.1. Safety Markings: The block ice machine should mark safety symbols (such as grounding symbol, neutral line symbol, warning symbol, etc.) in a conspicuous place in a way that is not easy to disappear.     Conclusion:   Understanding these safety requirements is crucial for any ice block factory utilizing a direct cooling block ice machine. Adherence to these standards ensures the safety of operators and the efficient running of the machine.
