Description

This air-cooled undercounter ice machine uses a unique stainless steel evaporator to produce crystal-clear crescent cubes. The crescent shape is built to displace more liquid, which helps maintain beverage levels and improves pour control. Because the evaporator is dual-sided, the unit generates ice more efficiently, reaching a daily production capacity of 98 Lbs. while occupying only 18″ of horizontal floor space.

The internal components are protected by stainless steel that resists stains and scratches in busy kitchen environments. To simplify daily operations, the EverCheck™ alert system delivers audible notification if the unit requires attention. The CycleSaver™ design delivers that the machine produces the same amount of ice in fewer cycles, reducing wear on the compressor and lowering overall energy consumption for your facility.

Maintenance is straightforward thanks to the front-access design and a removable air filter that can be cleaned without moving the entire unit. The slide-in door design saves space and prevents obstructions in narrow walkways, making it an excellent choice for tight workspaces. With its R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant and ENERGY STAR® certification.

  • Restaurant Size Recommendation: For small establishments or “micro” operations. It is well-suited for venues seating up to 25 people.
  • Maintenance Advice: Clean the removable air filter at least once a month to prevent dust buildup. It is recommended to perform a professional deep clean and sanitization cycle every 6 months.
