Ice-O-Matic MFI0500A90, 21" Air Cooled Flake Ice Machine Head, 465 Lb, 115 Volt

Model specifics: up to 465 lbs per 24 hours · 21" wide · flake ice · air-cooled · 115V single phase · R290 refrigerant

The Ice-O-Matic MFI0500A90 is a 21-inch modular MFI Series flake ice machine head that makes up to 465 pounds of flake ice a day at 70°F air and 50°F water (334 lbs at 90°F air and 70°F water). It is the entry model of the 21-inch MFI flake line and runs on a standard 115-volt circuit, a practical choice for seafood counters, salad bars, bars and smaller healthcare or foodservice operations.

Flake ice is soft, moldable and gentle on product. It packs tightly around fish, meat and produce on display, keeping them cold and looking fresh, and it is easy to scoop for healthcare, therapy and food-processing uses.

This A90 model uses R290 refrigerant. A load-monitoring system checks the gearbox workload and shuts the machine down before a problem develops. A water sensor protects against low or no water. The evaporator and auger are stainless steel, the industrial-grade double roller bearings need no maintenance, and the gearbox is heavy duty. A built-in non-contact ice detection system shuts the machine off when the bin is full.

Ice bin sold separately: this is an ice machine head only, with no storage. At this output it pairs naturally with the 22-inch B42 (351 lb) bin using the KBT24 bin top (the combination shown on Ice-O-Matic's sheet), or a 30-inch B40/B55 bin with the KBT19 bin top. Check the bin chart on the spec sheet to see which bins need an Ice-O-Matic bin top kit. For dispenser installations, see the Ice-O-Matic price list for the right adapter kit.

Installation: 115V/60/1, 10.7 A minimum circuit ampacity, 15 A maximum breaker. 3/8" FPT potable water inlet and 3/4" FPT drain. Operates in 50-100°F air with 40-100°F water at 20-80 psi. The machine is air-cooled, so it needs no condenser water; keep the front and rear air paths clear. Ice-O-Matic recommends the IFQ1-FS water filter system with IOMQ-FS replacement cartridges (sold separately).

Warranty: Ice-O-Matic warrants the ice maker for 3 years parts and labor and the compressor for 5 years parts.
