Scotsman Prodigy ELITE MC0530MAX-1 Commercial Ice Machine Head - 476 lb/Day Medium Cube, 30 Inch Air-Cooled 115V Description

Nearly 500 lb/Day of Medium Cube Ice with Connected Diagnostics

The Scotsman MC0530MAX-1 Prodigy ELITE is a head-only, air-cooled modular cuber that produces up to 476 lb of medium cube ice every 24 hours. Under the warmer 90°F air/70°F water test condition, the official rating is 370 lb per 24 hours—a more conservative number to use when sizing equipment for a hot kitchen or warm utility area. Its 30-inch-wide cabinet is intended for a compatible Scotsman storage bin or ice dispenser, allowing the production head and storage capacity to be selected around the operation's real demand instead of accepting a fixed built-in bin.

Each medium cube measures approximately 7/8 x 7/8 x 7/8 in.. This familiar, solid cube provides useful displacement and dependable chilling for soft drinks, cocktails, water service, banquet beverage stations, and back-of-house prep. Because this SKU is the medium-cube version, it should not be confused with the small-cube variants in the same family.

The Prodigy ELITE platform adds tools that matter after installation. The integrated ICELINQ® app connects through Bluetooth® for real-time diagnostics, settings, unit information, and guided cleaning. Upgraded ice-thickness and water sensors improve durability and cleanability, while Preservation Mode helps maximize uptime and alerts users to developing issues. The external AutoAlert™ panel displays machine status, bin-full condition, and an easier-to-read 16-segment display without requiring staff to remove a panel.

Sanitation and water management are also built into the design. A removable external air filter speeds routine cleaning, WaterSense adaptive purge helps control dissolved minerals and water use, and antimicrobial protection guards internal surfaces between scheduled cleanings. This exact MC0530MAX-1 is the 115/60/1, air-cooled R290 configuration. It does not include an ice bin, adapter, or water filter, so those components must be matched to the installation separately.

Scotsman Prodigy ELITE MC0530MAX-1 Commercial Ice Machine Head - 476 lb/Day Medium Cube, 30 Inch Air-Cooled 115V Buying Guide

Quick Answer: Choose the Scotsman MC0530MAX-1 when measured medium-cube demand fits a 30-inch modular system with separate storage. It is rated at up to 476 lb/day and 370 lb/day at 90 F air and 70 F water. Confirm the bin match, water and drainage arrangements, and exact 115V electrical installation.

Who should consider this model

This model suits a buyer who wants to size ready reserve independently from daily production. Decide how much ice must be available before service, then record the amount removed during the busiest interval. A bin can hold reserve made earlier, while the head replenishes it over time. Neither measurement substitutes for the other.

The main buying decision

Compared with MC0330MAX-1, the reviewed head price increases by $290, about 8%, while warm-condition output increases by 87 lb/day, about 31%. This makes the upgrade worth evaluating if the smaller head has insufficient recovery. Compare equivalent bins and installation packages before treating the head-price difference as the complete upgrade cost.

For an existing installation, record the current head and bin model numbers and photograph the utility connections for the installer. Ask for approval of the replacement combination, required top parts, and circuit. Those checks are more useful than assuming that two 30-inch products will connect in the same way.

Installation checks

The July 2026 specification sheet for MC0530MAX-1 lists 11.1 A minimum circuit ampacity and a 15 A maximum fuse or breaker. It is a field-installed modular head. Provide the manufacturer-required water, drainage, and airflow, with enough access to service the head and clean the bin. Use the exact model sheet rather than a neighboring MC0322 document.

Compare the right alternative

Compare the MC0330MAX-1 when measured consumption is lower. Compare the MC0630MAX-1 for additional production, allowing for its higher circuit requirement. Its warmer-condition output is 109 lb/day higher; both choices still need separately selected storage.

Plan the complete purchase

Ask for the approved bin, required mounting parts, filter system, freight services, and installation to be listed separately. Confirm the current manufacturer warranty for the commercial use and the local service process. Keep cleaning and filter changes in the operating plan so the system can maintain its intended performance.

For a broader demand worksheet, use our ice machine sizing guide.

Buyer questions

Does MC0530MAX-1 include a storage bin?

No. The head needs a compatible separate bin or dispenser.

Can I use the MC0322 sheet to plan this installation?

No. Use the exact MC0530MAX-1 specification and installation instructions.

Is MC0630MAX-1 a drop-in electrical replacement?

Do not assume so. Its published minimum circuit ampacity and maximum protection differ, so an electrician must check the installation.

Shipping Policy

Ice Maker Supply ships commercial ice makers, ice storage bins, dispensers, filters, accessories, and related equipment through manufacturers, authorized distributors, fulfillment facilities, and parcel or freight carriers. The following terms explain delivery estimates, shipping coverage, freight service, and how to receive an order safely.

1. Where We Ship

We currently ship to eligible street addresses in the 48 contiguous United States. We do not offer shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, other U.S. territories, APO/FPO/DPO military addresses, international destinations, or P.O. boxes.

Delivery to rural, remote, construction, or limited-access locations may require extra coordination or may not be available for certain equipment. If a location cannot be serviced, we will contact you to review the options, including cancellation and refund when appropriate.

2. Free Standard Shipping & Additional Charges

Free standard shipping is available for qualifying products and eligible delivery addresses within the contiguous United States, as shown on the product page or at checkout. If a product does not qualify, the applicable shipping charge will be shown during checkout or in a written quotation before you complete the purchase.

Free standard shipping does not automatically include the services below, which may incur additional charges when requested or required:

  • Liftgate unloading when the receiving location does not have a suitable loading dock or forklift.
  • Inside delivery, room placement, unpacking, assembly, or installation.
  • Residential, remote-area, limited-access, special-appointment, or other carrier accessorial services.
  • Redelivery, storage, or address-reassignment charges caused by delivery access or receiving issues.

We will explain required additional shipping services or charges before arranging them and obtain your approval when applicable. Fees or exclusions shown in a product-specific quotation take precedence over general offers.

3. Order Processing & Estimated Delivery

Estimated standard delivery: 5–7 business days for eligible, in-stock products under normal shipping conditions.

This 5–7-business-day estimate is measured from order confirmation and successful payment verification (whichever occurs later) to expected delivery. It includes ordinary processing and transportation; processing time is not added again on top of this estimate.

Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding major U.S. holidays. Orders placed outside normal business hours may begin processing on the next business day. Shipment and arrival can vary with product availability, warehouse location, freight schedules, and destination.

The 5–7-business-day estimate does not apply to backorders, special orders, made-to-order items, products with a longer published lead time, or shipments requiring exceptional freight arrangements. Large freight shipments and remote destinations may take longer. Any different timeline shown on an individual product page or provided in writing for your order takes precedence.

Delivery dates are estimates, not guaranteed arrival dates. Please schedule equipment installers only after delivery and inspection.

4. Parcel Shipping & Freight Delivery

Smaller items may arrive by parcel carrier. Larger or heavier ice machines, bins, and commercial equipment often ship on pallets through a freight carrier.

Unless a different service is confirmed in writing, standard freight delivery is generally to an accessible truckside, curbside, or receiving/loading area. It does not include carrying equipment inside the property, placement in a kitchen or storage room, unpacking, disposal of packaging, or installation.

The receiving location must be accessible to the assigned carrier and must have an appropriate unloading plan. Let us know before shipment if you do not have a loading dock or forklift.

5. Liftgate, Residential & Limited-Access Delivery

A liftgate is a platform used to lower certain freight items from the truck to ground level. It may be necessary when the receiving location lacks a suitable loading dock or forklift. Liftgate service must be requested before dispatch and is subject to carrier availability, weight, size, and any applicable fee.

Residential addresses, schools, churches, construction sites, storage sites, and other restricted-access locations may have special freight requirements. Not all shipments can be delivered by liftgate. Contact us before ordering if your unloading conditions are uncertain.

6. Delivery Appointments & Receiving Requirements

Some freight carriers will call to schedule delivery. Please provide an accurate phone number and a receiving contact who can be available during the carrier’s delivery window.

Delivery windows depend on the carrier and are not guaranteed unless expressly confirmed. If the carrier cannot deliver because the recipient is unavailable, the location is inaccessible, or suitable unloading arrangements are missing, redelivery or storage fees may apply.

7. Shipping Confirmation & Tracking

We will provide shipping confirmation and available tracking details after the order has been handed to the shipping carrier and the information becomes available. Freight shipments may use a PRO number or other freight reference instead of a parcel tracking number.

Tracking information may take time to update after dispatch. If your shipment shows no movement for more than five business days, contact us so we can investigate with the carrier or shipping warehouse.

8. Orders Arriving in Multiple Shipments

An ice machine head, bin, dispenser, water filter, accessory, or replacement part may ship separately, especially when the products come from different facilities or suppliers. Each shipment may have its own tracking number and arrival date.

9. Inspecting Freight at Delivery

Commercial equipment should be inspected before signing the carrier’s delivery receipt whenever reasonably possible. We recommend that you:

1.  Confirm the correct number of cartons or pallets and look for missing items.

2.  Examine the packaging for tears, punctures, crushed corners, moisture, or broken pallets.

3.  Check accessible equipment surfaces for visible damage, and photograph any concerns.

4.  Write clear notes describing visible damage or shortages on the carrier’s delivery receipt before signing.

5.  Retain the receipt, photographs, and original packaging until the equipment is checked.

If there is serious visible damage, document it and contact us immediately for guidance. Do not accept a badly damaged shipment without noting the condition on the receipt. An unqualified signature may make the freight claim process more difficult, but does not override applicable legal rights.

10. Damaged, Missing, or Incorrect Products

If equipment arrives damaged, an item is missing, or a different model is delivered, contact us promptly, preferably within one business day of delivery or as soon as the issue is discovered. This is a request for fast reporting to help preserve carrier and supplier claim evidence, not a waiver of your rights.

Please send your order number, model details, photos of the product and packaging, a description of the problem, delivery receipt notes (if available), and the serial number if relevant.

Do not install or use visibly damaged equipment before contacting us. Keep the packaging. We will coordinate with the relevant shipping, warehouse, or manufacturing partner to investigate and arrange an appropriate resolution.

11. Delays, Backorders & Special Orders

Inventory, manufacturer production, payment verification, holiday schedules, weather, and carrier operations can affect fulfillment. If we determine that an order cannot be shipped within the applicable communicated shipment timeframe, we will notify you and offer the shipment-delay, cancellation, and refund options required by applicable law.

We will not substitute a materially different model without your approval. For backordered or made-to-order items, we will communicate the available lead-time information before proceeding when possible.

12. Address Changes, Redelivery & Returned Shipments

Please confirm your complete shipping address, business name, suite number, ZIP code, telephone number, and any receiving restrictions at checkout. Contact us immediately if a correction is needed. Changes after dispatch may be unavailable or may incur a carrier reconsignment fee.

Returned-to-sender orders or refused deliveries may require review and additional transportation charges when the issue is caused by an incorrect address, unavailable recipient, or customer-requested change. We will explain the available options, subject to the order’s circumstances and applicable law.

13. Lost Shipments or Orders Marked Delivered

If tracking shows “Delivered” but the equipment has not arrived, contact us as soon as possible. We will review the shipment record, carrier proof of delivery, delivery address, and any signature information with the carrier or fulfillment partner.

If a shipment is confirmed lost or misdelivered, we will work toward a suitable resolution, including replacement or refund as appropriate under the order circumstances and applicable law.

14. Expedited Shipping

Expedited shipping is not currently offered as a standard checkout service. If you have an urgent project, contact us before ordering so we can check current stock and provide a realistic shipping estimate.

15. Cancellations, Refused Deliveries & Returns

For cancellations or voluntary returns, please review our Refund Policy before shipping any item back. Most eligible unused and uninstalled products may qualify for a return request within 30 days of delivery, subject to authorization and the conditions stated in that policy.

If a shipment is refused for a reason unrelated to shipping damage, an incorrect item, or our error, applicable return freight or handling charges may apply. Please contact us before refusing a shipment whenever possible.

Refund Policy: https://icemakersupply.com/policies/refund-policy

16. Warranty Replacement Shipping

Warranty replacement shipments, when approved, are coordinated in accordance with the relevant manufacturer’s or supplier’s warranty process. Supporting documents, photos, troubleshooting, serial number information, or return of the original item may be required. Replacement delivery timing will be confirmed when the claim is approved.

17. Contact Ice Maker Supply

For shipping questions, freight arrangements, order status, delivery damage, or tracking support, please contact us and include your order number if you already placed an order.

Scotsman Prodigy ELITE MC0530MAX-1 Commercial Ice Machine Head - 476 lb/Day Medium Cube, 30 Inch Air-Cooled 115V Description

Nearly 500 lb/Day of Medium Cube Ice with Connected Diagnostics

The Scotsman MC0530MAX-1 Prodigy ELITE is a head-only, air-cooled modular cuber that produces up to 476 lb of medium cube ice every 24 hours. Under the warmer 90°F air/70°F water test condition, the official rating is 370 lb per 24 hours—a more conservative number to use when sizing equipment for a hot kitchen or warm utility area. Its 30-inch-wide cabinet is intended for a compatible Scotsman storage bin or ice dispenser, allowing the production head and storage capacity to be selected around the operation's real demand instead of accepting a fixed built-in bin.

Each medium cube measures approximately 7/8 x 7/8 x 7/8 in.. This familiar, solid cube provides useful displacement and dependable chilling for soft drinks, cocktails, water service, banquet beverage stations, and back-of-house prep.

The Prodigy ELITE platform adds tools that matter after installation. The integrated ICELINQ® app connects through Bluetooth® for real-time diagnostics, settings, unit information, and guided cleaning. Upgraded ice-thickness and water sensors improve durability and cleanability, while Preservation Mode helps maximize uptime and alerts users to developing issues.

Delivery to rural, remote, construction, or limited-access locations may require extra coordination or may not be available for certain equipment. If a location cannot be serviced, we will contact you to review the options, including cancellation and refund when appropriate.

2. Free Standard Shipping & Additional Charges

Free standard shipping is available for qualifying products and eligible delivery addresses within the contiguous United States, as shown on the product page or at checkout. If a product does not qualify, the applicable shipping charge will be shown during checkout or in a written quotation before you complete the purchase.

Free standard shipping does not automatically include the services below, which may incur additional charges when requested or required:

  • Liftgate unloading when the receiving location does not have a suitable loading dock or forklift.
  • Inside delivery, room placement, unpacking, assembly, or installation.
  • Residential, remote-area, limited-access, special-appointment, or other carrier accessorial services.
  • Redelivery, storage, or address-reassignment charges caused by delivery access or receiving issues.

We will explain required additional shipping services or charges before arranging them and obtain your approval when applicable. Fees or exclusions shown in a product-specific quotation take precedence over general offers.

3. Order Processing & Estimated Delivery

Estimated standard delivery: 5–7 business days for eligible, in-stock products under normal shipping conditions.

This 5–7-business-day estimate is measured from order confirmation and successful payment verification (whichever occurs later) to expected delivery. It includes ordinary processing and transportation; processing time is not added again on top of this estimate.

Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding major U.S. holidays. Orders placed outside normal business hours may begin processing on the next business day. Shipment and arrival can vary with product availability, warehouse location, freight schedules, and destination.

The 5–7-business-day estimate does not apply to backorders, special orders, made-to-order items, products with a longer published lead time, or shipments requiring exceptional freight arrangements. Large freight shipments and remote destinations may take longer. Any different timeline shown on an individual product page or provided in writing for your order takes precedence.

Delivery dates are estimates, not guaranteed arrival dates. Please schedule equipment installers only after delivery and inspection.

4. Parcel Shipping & Freight Delivery

Smaller items may arrive by parcel carrier. Larger or heavier ice machines, bins, and commercial equipment often ship on pallets through a freight carrier.

Unless a different service is confirmed in writing, standard freight delivery is generally to an accessible truckside, curbside, or receiving/loading area. It does not include carrying equipment inside the property, placement in a kitchen or storage room, unpacking, disposal of packaging, or installation.

The receiving location must be accessible to the assigned carrier and must have an appropriate unloading plan. Let us know before shipment if you do not have a loading dock or forklift.

5. Liftgate, Residential & Limited-Access Delivery

A liftgate is a platform used to lower certain freight items from the truck to ground level. It may be necessary when the receiving location lacks a suitable loading dock or forklift. Liftgate service must be requested before dispatch and is subject to carrier availability, weight, size, and any applicable fee.

Residential addresses, schools, churches, construction sites, storage sites, and other restricted-access locations may have special freight requirements. Not all shipments can be delivered by liftgate. Contact us before ordering if your unloading conditions are uncertain.

6. Delivery Appointments & Receiving Requirements

Some freight carriers will call to schedule delivery. Please provide an accurate phone number and a receiving contact who can be available during the carrier’s delivery window.

Delivery windows depend on the carrier and are not guaranteed unless expressly confirmed. If the carrier cannot deliver because the recipient is unavailable, the location is inaccessible, or suitable unloading arrangements are missing, redelivery or storage fees may apply.

7. Shipping Confirmation & Tracking

We will provide shipping confirmation and available tracking details after the order has been handed to the shipping carrier and the information becomes available. Freight shipments may use a PRO number or other freight reference instead of a parcel tracking number.

Tracking information may take time to update after dispatch. If your shipment shows no movement for more than five business days, contact us so we can investigate with the carrier or shipping warehouse.

8. Orders Arriving in Multiple Shipments

An ice machine head, bin, dispenser, water filter, accessory, or replacement part may ship separately, especially when the products come from different facilities or suppliers. Each shipment may have its own tracking number and arrival date.

9. Inspecting Freight at Delivery

Commercial equipment should be inspected before signing the carrier’s delivery receipt whenever reasonably possible. We recommend that you:

1.  Confirm the correct number of cartons or pallets and look for missing items.

2.  Examine the packaging for tears, punctures, crushed corners, moisture, or broken pallets.

3.  Check accessible equipment surfaces for visible damage, and photograph any concerns.

4.  Write clear notes describing visible damage or shortages on the carrier’s delivery receipt before signing.

5.  Retain the receipt, photographs, and original packaging until the equipment is checked.

If there is serious visible damage, document it and contact us immediately for guidance. Do not accept a badly damaged shipment without noting the condition on the receipt. An unqualified signature may make the freight claim process more difficult, but does not override applicable legal rights.

10. Damaged, Missing, or Incorrect Products

If equipment arrives damaged, an item is missing, or a different model is delivered, contact us promptly, preferably within one business day of delivery or as soon as the issue is discovered. This is a request for fast reporting to help preserve carrier and supplier claim evidence, not a waiver of your rights.

Please send your order number, model details, photos of the product and packaging, a description of the problem, delivery receipt notes (if available), and the serial number if relevant.

Do not install or use visibly damaged equipment before contacting us. Keep the packaging. We will coordinate with the relevant shipping, warehouse, or manufacturing partner to investigate and arrange an appropriate resolution.

11. Delays, Backorders & Special Orders

Inventory, manufacturer production, payment verification, holiday schedules, weather, and carrier operations can affect fulfillment. If we determine that an order cannot be shipped within the applicable communicated shipment timeframe, we will notify you and offer the shipment-delay, cancellation, and refund options required by applicable law.

We will not substitute a materially different model without your approval. For backordered or made-to-order items, we will communicate the available lead-time information before proceeding when possible.

12. Address Changes, Redelivery & Returned Shipments

Please confirm your complete shipping address, business name, suite number, ZIP code, telephone number, and any receiving restrictions at checkout. Contact us immediately if a correction is needed. Changes after dispatch may be unavailable or may incur a carrier reconsignment fee.

Returned-to-sender orders or refused deliveries may require review and additional transportation charges when the issue is caused by an incorrect address, unavailable recipient, or customer-requested change. We will explain the available options, subject to the order’s circumstances and applicable law.

13. Lost Shipments or Orders Marked Delivered

If tracking shows “Delivered” but the equipment has not arrived, contact us as soon as possible. We will review the shipment record, carrier proof of delivery, delivery address, and any signature information with the carrier or fulfillment partner.

If a shipment is confirmed lost or misdelivered, we will work toward a suitable resolution, including replacement or refund as appropriate under the order circumstances and applicable law.

14. Expedited Shipping

Expedited shipping is not currently offered as a standard checkout service. If you have an urgent project, contact us before ordering so we can check current stock and provide a realistic shipping estimate.

15. Cancellations, Refused Deliveries & Returns

For cancellations or voluntary returns, please review our Refund Policy before shipping any item back. Most eligible unused and uninstalled products may qualify for a return request within 30 days of delivery, subject to authorization and the conditions stated in that policy.

If a shipment is refused for a reason unrelated to shipping damage, an incorrect item, or our error, applicable return freight or handling charges may apply. Please contact us before refusing a shipment whenever possible.

16. Warranty Replacement Shipping

Warranty replacement shipments, when approved, are coordinated in accordance with the relevant manufacturer’s or supplier’s warranty process. Supporting documents, photos, troubleshooting, serial number information, or return of the original item may be required. Replacement delivery timing will be confirmed when the claim is approved.
