Hoshizaki KM-81BAK Undercounter Crescent Cube Ice Maker - 98 lb/Day with 38 lb Bin, Air-Cooled Description

Hoshizaki KM-81BAK — Undercounter Crescent Cube Ice Production with Built-In Storage

Put crescent ice within reach of a compact beverage station. The narrow cabinet combines ice production and storage in one unit, so a café, office kitchen or small bar does not need floor space for a separate ice head and bin. The Hoshizaki KM-81BAK undercounter crescent cube ice maker produces up to 98 lb per 24 hours at 70°F air/50°F water. At 90°F air/70°F water, its rated output is 76 lb per day. The built-in bin holds up to 38 lb of ice.

The individual crescent cubes measure approximately 1-1/8 × 1-1/2 × 1/2 in. Their curved profile is suited to everyday beverage service, from iced water and soft drinks to bar pours. A stainless steel evaporator forms the ice, while CycleSaver design supports the production cycle. The EverCheck alert system provides equipment-status information that can help operators identify when service attention is needed.

The stainless steel exterior and slide-in bin door are designed for a working service environment. Front-in, front-out airflow allows built-in installation when the required service space and utility access are maintained. A removable air filter simplifies periodic condenser care. R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant is used in the air-cooled refrigeration system.

The cabinet dimensions are 17-3/4 × 24 × 39 in. (including 6-in. legs) (W × D × H). Electrical service is 115V/60Hz/single phase with a 15A circuit/fuse rating. Provide room at the rear for utility connections, at least 12 in. in front and at least 0.6 in. above for maintenance. Production changes with room and inlet-water temperatures, so size the installation using the hotter-condition output as well as the maximum rating.

Key Features

  • Up to 98 lb/day at 70°F air/50°F water
  • 38 lb built-in ice storage
  • Stainless steel evaporator and exterior
  • Front-in, front-out airflow supports built-in installation
  • CycleSaver design and EverCheck alert system
  • Slide-in bin door for convenient access
  • Removable air filter and accessible power switch
  • 6.5-ft power cord with NEMA 5-15P plug
  • R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant

Best For

Cafés, bars, break rooms and hospitality beverage counters that need individual crescent cube ice close to the point of service.

Does the Hoshizaki KM-322MAK include a storage bin or dispenser?
