Ice maker KASTEL KFE250-A

A continuous supply of dry, flat flake ice keeps drinks chilled and food displays crisp without clumping. The KASTEL KFE 250 ice maker generates flakes 1.5 mm thick at temperatures between -5 °C and -7 °C, ensuring each piece stays separate and visually appealing.

The machine works by circulating refrigerant through an evaporator drum. Water flows over the drum's outer surface, freezing instantly into a thin layer. A rotating blade then shaves the ice into flakes, which drop into a separate container ready for use.

To operate, connect the machine to a water supply and power it on. The electric control system maintains the set production cycle, automatically filling the drum and harvesting ice as needed. Once the container is full, the machine pauses until ice is removed, preventing overflow.

Built with a stainless steel cover option, the KFE 250 resists corrosion and fits seamlessly into professional kitchens. Its compact footprint of 1015 x 590 x 765 mm allows placement under worktops or in tight corners, while the 170 kg weight ensures stability during operation.

The 1.0 kW power rating draws a steady load suitable for standard 230 V circuits, avoiding the need for special wiring. Refrigerant R452 A provides efficient cooling without compromising environmental standards.

Cleaning involves wiping down the exterior and periodically descaling the evaporator drum to prevent mineral build-up. The separate container can be removed for thorough washing, ensuring hygiene between uses.

Designed for high-demand settings, the KFE 250 serves cocktail bars, restaurants, hotels, event services and retail displays where consistent ice quality matters. Its 250 kg daily output meets the needs of busy venues without requiring manual intervention.

This model is categorised under professional ice makers for daily use, offering a balance of performance and space efficiency.
