Re: Overfreezing crane model 431

It's set to run at 5degrees or less because it's designed for fresh food, is there a way I can raise that? I only sell cold drinks out of it so no health risk.

The machine works fine but im having to defrost it once a week week, ice builds up rapidly in the radiator below the fan.

Re: Thoughts on Shoppertron 2

I've had a few shoppertron 2's and I like the pricing options, the look of the machine is nice and customers receive it well. One downside is people pulling the doors open too hard and damaging it, the doors are motorised but customers are always trying to force them open. Apart from spending on tha...

Re: Overfreezing crane model 431

The storage area to the right of the carousel is chocka block full of drinks all the time, not sure if that is relevant, the compressor is gonna have a harder time cooling all that down.

Re: Overfreezing crane model 431

Both fans are running OK. When I had the fridge engineer look at it he re-gassed the compressor, maybe he missed something. Stood at the machine now and the compressor kicks in at 6 degrees but only comes down to 5 degrees before going off again. Lowering to 5 degrees has so far taken around 10 to 1...

Overfreezing crane model 431

Hello I have a crane 431 which has a build up of ice below the fan that blows cold air into the carousel. I've fitted a new temperature sensor today, maybe the old one kept the compressor running when it was already cold enough. I won't know until next week when I check ifcthe ice has returned after...

Re: Vending Engineer needed.

It's a stentorfield, I can't find an exact model number but I have some newer stentorfields with the fresh brew tea option. This older machine only serves instant tea along with coffee, chocolate and soup. I replaced the motor that moves the dispenser head forward and backward but when re-connecting...
