An ice-making machine having an assembly and a controller that controls said assembly to make ice. A sensing device senses a current level of ice in an ice bin that receives the ice made by the assembly. The controller compares the current level to a high set point and a low set point and, based on a current energy rate, controls the assembly to maintain the current level at or near the high set point when said current energy rate is low and at or near the low set point when the current energy rate is high to provide energy efficiency. The controller and sensing device are part of a retrofit assembly that retrofits an existing ice machine with the energy efficient feature.

L'invention concerne une machine à glace ayant un ensemble et un dispositif de commande qui commande ledit ensemble pour fabriquer de la glace. Un dispositif de détection détecte le niveau actuel de la glace dans le bac de glace qui reçoit la glace fabriquée par l'ensemble. Le dispositif de commande compare le niveau actuel à un point de consigne élevé et un point de consigne bas et, en fonction du prix de l'énergie actuel, commande l'ensemble à maintenir le niveau actuel au niveau ou proche du point de consigne élevé quand le prix de l'énergie actuel est bas, et au niveau proche du point de consigne bas lorsque le prix de l'énergie actuel est élevé, pour fournir une efficacité énergétique. Le dispositif de commande et le dispositif de détection font partie d'un ensemble de rattrapage qui rattrape une machine à glace existante avec la caractéristique d'efficacité énergétique.
