A 200kg ice machine is for sites where ice is a continuous requirement: large hotels, stadiums, hospitals, processors and venues supplying several outlets from one plant.

A 200kg ice maker, or ice machine 200kg in output, is a modular head that sits on a storage bin of its own, so you choose the head and the bin to match what the site gets through. See modular ice makers and commercial ice storage bins.

These are the top FAQs for 200kg Ice Maker

What does a 200kg machine need installed?

Water, drainage, power and ventilation, plus room to get around it for servicing. At this output it is a plant item rather than an appliance, so plan the install with your contractor before it arrives.

Our installation partner can advise.

How much storage do I need with it?

Size the bin to peak demand, not daily output. A large head with undersized storage still runs out at the busiest hour.

How accurate are the rated outputs on large machines?

They are measured under set conditions, and real output falls as ambient and water temperatures rise. On a machine this size the gap can be the difference between keeping up and running out at 8pm.

Ask about the rating conditions before you commit, and plan for the hottest week of the year.

What plumbing does an ice machine need?

A water supply, a drain and a filter. Water quality affects both ice clarity and machine life, and most manufacturers require filtration to keep the warranty valid.

Filters and fittings are in commercial ice machine accessories.

Is flake or cube better at this scale?

It depends what the ice is for. Cube suits drinks; flake suits food display and processing. Many large sites run both.

See flake ice makers and cube ice makers.

What redundancy should a large site have?

Two heads, or a service agreement with guaranteed response. The cost of emergency bagged ice across a large venue is substantial.
