Part I:
Automatic Commercial Ice-Cube Machines (Batch Type)
Scope of Program
A. Standard
The program references the current issue of ARI
Standard 810 for AUTOMATIC COMMERCIAL
ICE-MAKERS.
Certification by manufacturers of automatic
commercial ice-cube machines (batch type)
under this standard requires that manufacturer’s
certified ratings are established at the Standard
Rating Conditions indicated in ARI Standard
810.
B. Equipment Covered
All factory-made automatic commercial ice-cube
machines (batch type), as defined in ARI
Standard 810, are included in this Program.
An automatic commercial ice-maker is a factory-
made assembly (not necessarily shipped in one
package) consisting of a condensing unit and
ice-making section operating as an integrated
unit, with means for making and harvesting ice.
It may also include means for storing or
dispensing ice, or both.
A self-contained model is a model in which the
ice-making mechanisms and storage
compartment are in an integral cabinet.
A split system ice-maker is a model in which the
ice-making mechanism and condenser or
condensing units are in separate sections.
Cube Ice refers to a fairly uniform product that is
hard, solid, usually clear, and generally weighs
less than 2 oz. [60 g] per piece – as
distinguished from flake, crushed, or fragmented
ice.
THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT APPLY TO ANY
MACHINES OTHER THAN AUTOMATIC
COMMERCIAL ICE-CUBE (BATCH TYPE)
MACHINES.
C. Basis of Participation
Participation in the Program, by contract
between each manufacturer and ARI, consists
of:
1. Certification by the manufacturer to ARI
that his models comply with ARI Standard
810.
2. Participation by the manufacturer in the
random testing program, at an
independent testing laboratory under
contract to ARI. Representatives of the
laboratory select units for test from
manufacturer’s inventories.
D. Evidence of Certification
The participating manufacturer may indicate his
participation in the certification program in the
following ways:
1. Display of the Certification Symbol on all
units of certified models.
2. The Certification Symbol, with the
statement “Certified in accordance with
the ARI Automatic Commercial Ice-Cube
Machines (Batch type) Certification
Program, which is based on ARI Standard
810.”, shall be displayed on all
specification sheets, and also, if ratings
are mentioned, on other literature and
advertising.
3. Distribution of the Directory carrying the
name of each participating manufacturer
and list of his certified models, together
with their certified ratings.
The Symbol
The Certification Symbol, as required to cover
the governing Standard, is illustrated below:
*See Operational Manual, OM-810 for exceptions.
This Symbol has been registered with the United States
Patent Office. The symbol may not be reproduced or copied
except by permission of ARI. The Symbol may be displayed
on qualified units in the form of a label obtained from ARI, or
may be an integral part of the nameplate.
