Ice maker ICE TECH 21560U

The ICE TECH SS 75 A/W is a professional ice maker designed for continuous operation in bars, restaurants, and event venues. Water is sprayed onto a copper evaporator, freezing layer by layer to produce hard, transparent ice that lasts longer than standard cubes.

Operation is simple and automated. An external On/Off switch starts the machine, while a built-in timer and thermostat control the freezing cycle. Once the water supply is connected, the unit runs independently, releasing ice into the 30 kg storage container when ready. The container holds enough ice for busy periods, minimising the need for frequent emptying.

Constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel, the unit resists corrosion and meets hygiene standards for food-contact equipment. The interior is smooth and seamless, making cleaning straightforward. A drain connection is included for the cooling system, which can be set up for air or water cooling. The air-cooled version features a drain pump to remove condensate automatically.

Controls are minimal and durable, consisting of an On/Off switch, a timer for the production cycle, and a thermostat to maintain the correct temperature. The machine runs on a 230 V single-phase supply, with a 1.266 kW power rating suitable for most commercial kitchens. It uses R290 refrigerant, known for its low environmental impact.

Daily output ranges from 58 to 60 kg under standard conditions. Performance may vary based on ambient temperature and water pressure, with the unit rated for air temperatures between +5 °C and +35 °C and water pressures from 0.7 to 6 bar. Weighing 54 kg, the machine can be moved by two people, and its dimensions of 515 × 645 × 840 mm allow it to fit under most worktops or on a sturdy shelf.

Maintenance is straightforward. Stainless steel surfaces should be wiped daily to remove scale and debris. The evaporator and water system require monthly descaling with a food-safe solution to prevent mineral build-up. The storage container is removable for thorough cleaning, and the drain pump on the air-cooled model should be checked periodically for blockages.

Two cube sizes are available: medium and large. The cooling system can be configured for air or water operation, with the water-cooled version available as a separate model. The air-cooled version includes a drain pump at an additional cost. Both versions share the same cabinet, controls, and output capacity.

This model is part of a professional range designed for high-volume beverage service and food presentation.
