IH9041105-02 / 9041105-02 Water Purge Valve

IH9041105-02 / 9041105-02 Water Purge Valve – 240V, 0° | Ice Machine Replacement Part

During the ice machine’s purge/drain sequence, the valve helps discharge water from the water system. This process assists in removing water containing accumulated minerals and dissolved solids before the next ice-making cycle, supporting proper water management and consistent machine operation.

The 0-degree configuration distinguishes this valve from other 9041105-series versions with different orientations and voltages. For example, Ice-O-Matic separately lists 120V and 90°/180° variants, so matching the exact voltage and valve configuration is important when selecting a replacement.

Main Features:

• 💧 Water Purge Control – Controls discharge of water during the machine's purge/drain cycle.
• ⚡ 240V Operation – Designed for compatible 240V ice machine electrical systems.
• 🔄 0° Valve Configuration – Ice-O-Matic identifies 9041105-02 specifically as its 0-degree purge valve.
• 🧊 Commercial Ice Machine Application – Designed for compatible commercial ice-making equipment.
• 🚿 Supports Water-System Purging – Helps discharge water during scheduled purge cycles.
• ⚙️ Electrically Operated – Opens and closes according to the machine's control sequence.
• 🔧 Replacement Component – Used for servicing compatible Ice-O-Matic machines.
• 🛡️ Commercial-Duty Construction – Constructed from metal and plastic components for ice-machine applications.

Main Specifications:

The 240V and 0° specifications are directly supported by Ice-O-Matic's parts documentation.

Compatibility Note: Ice machine parts can vary according to model, voltage, serial number and production revision. Always confirm 9041105-02, 240V, valve orientation and the machine's model/serial information before ordering.

How the Purge Valve Works?

During normal ice production, water is circulated through the ice-making system. Minerals and dissolved solids can become concentrated as water freezes.

When the machine enters its programmed purge sequence, the 9041105-02 purge valve opens to provide a drain path, allowing water to leave the system. After the purge period, the valve closes so the machine can continue its normal fill and ice-making sequence.

Proper purge operation therefore contributes to maintaining the machine's water-management process and reducing the concentration of minerals left in the circulating water.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Purge Valve

A purge valve that is blocked, leaking, electrically faulty or mechanically stuck may contribute to:

• Water not draining properly during purge
• Continuous or unexpected water loss
• Water remaining in the sump when it should drain
• Incomplete purge cycles
• Mineral buildup in the water system
• Reduced or inconsistent ice production
• Water leaking to the drain when the valve should be closed

These symptoms can also be caused by other components, so proper diagnosis should be performed before replacing the valve.

Main Applications:

Suitable for compatible:

• 🧊 Commercial cube ice machines

Installation Note

Before installation, disconnect electrical power and water supply to the machine. Verify the machine model, serial number, 240V electrical requirement, valve orientation, mounting arrangement and part number before replacement.

Installation should be carried out by a qualified commercial refrigeration or ice-machine service technician.
