Kold-Draft GBX561LCE, 42" Water Cooled Full Cube Ice Machine, 455 Lb

Model specifics: up to 455 lbs per 24 hours · 42.3" wide · Kold-Draft big cube (1-1/4" square) · water-cooled · 115/60/1 · ice machine only, bin sold separately

The Kold-Draft GBX561LCE is a 42-inch modular cube ice machine from the Kold-Draft X-Series. It makes up to 455 pounds of ice in 24 hours at 70°F air and 50°F water, and about 406 pounds at 90°F air and 70°F water. The GBX560 series is Kold-Draft's 42-inch X-Series head in the half-ton class: a low 17-inch cabinet that sits on the 42" KDB650 or 48" KDB950 bin and can be stacked with a second X-Series head to double production in the same footprint (stacking kit required).

Kold-Draft's upside-down horizontal evaporator and water plate freeze a true 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" square cube. The cube is hard, dense, clear and slow to melt, so it holds up in cocktails, spirits and soft drinks and stays fresh in the bin.

This is the water-cooled (liquid-cooled) version: the condenser runs on a separate water line (3/8" FPT inlet, 1/2" FPT outlet) and puts very little heat into the room, useful in hot kitchens or tight spaces with poor airflow. Condenser water use is about 122.71 gallons per 100 lbs of ice at 90°F air / 70°F water, and condenser water pressure must be 20 to 100 psi.

Power is 115/60/1 with a 15.1 amp minimum circuit and 20 amp maximum fuse. It runs on standard 115-volt power.
