ZBE550-S280 ice machine with ice bin (standard and tropical versions)
 

The ZBE550-SG280 consists of a ZBE550 ice machine, installed on top of an S280 slope fronted ice storage bin.

Standard model guaranteed at 20°C air, 15°C water

Tropical model guaranteed at 35°C air, 25°C water

This type of flake ice is made at -0.5°C so will not freeze together, making it ideal where no refrigerated storage is available.

It is a plug in unit and requires only connection to water and mains power supply. The machine stops automatically when the bin is full of ice and re-starts automatically when ice is removed from the bin.

The hygienic sealed water system, boxed in construction and stainless steel panels makes this machine ideal for installation in factory environments where safety and hygiene are of paramount importance, especially when people may be working around the machine.

The bin has non-corroding polyethylene liner inside. Insulation is non-CFC polyurethane foam, bonded to shell and liner for added strength. Lift door has a stainless steel exterior and ABS interior, bonded together with non-CFC polyurethane foam for extra rigidity and strength. A conveniently low door sill height allows easy access to ice in the bottom of the bin. Door opening to be sealed with fully replaceable gasketing. Legs adjustable from 152mm to 191mm. Bin drain 1” FPT rigid PVC.

Available Ice Types
The ZBE550 ice machine can make any one of the ice types below, simply state on the order which type of ice you require. The ice type does not effect the price. Click on an image for details and images of each ice type.
 
micro flake ice
midi flake ice
macro flake ice
Very small flakes of ice, sometimes known as 'crushed ice'. The gentlest type of ice for packing delicate products and also where rapid cooling is required.

Medium sized flakes of ice.

Large sized flakes of ice. The large, thick pieces ensure long life in warm environments.  
 
Included with ice machine
Ziegra triple water filtration kit
ice machine water filter

The Ziegra triple helps prevent the water related problems that can impair the efficiency, reliablity and longevity of any ice machine.

Helps prevent the ingress of dirt and dissolved minerals which can coat evaporation surfaces, block lines and jam valves.

Water connection hose (part # 970221124)
ice machine water hose
Water inlet hose to connect from the outlet of the Ziegra triple water filter and the water inlet of the ice machine.
Large ice scoop
ice scoop
A large polymer ice scoop for hygienic handling of the ice.
 
 
Ice machine options
Remote weatherproof or saltwater resistant condenser
ice machine remote condenser
A standard packaged ice machine has the condenser built into it. This is fine in enviroments that are cool and well ventilated, with clean air, however for environments that get hot, dusty or do not have very good ventilation a remote condenser mounted outside the building is the solution. Remote machines must only be professionally installed by persons qualified to do so. Remote condensers come weatherproofed as standard for outside installation, however for applications close to the sea, saltwater resistant Cu/Cu condensers are recommended.
Auto drain down and flushing system
waice maker diagram
Every Ziegra ice machine has as standard a sealed water system for maximum possible water hygiene. However for applications where hygiene is a high priority, additonal systems can be fitted. Auto water drain down empties the water resovoir every time the machine is switched off, preventing water from stagnating in the tank. Auto water drain down is available separately or with an additional auto flushing system. This system can be pre-set to automatically flush through the water system with clean water at intervals pre-determined by the customer.
ice cart
109kg capacity insulated ice cart, moulded from food safe polymer for maximum hygiene. Also available a set of six totes to fit inside the cart, 11kg capacity each to make applying ice a little easier on the back.
Smartcart 125
ice cart
57kg capacity insulated ice cart, moulded from food safe polymer for maximum hygiene. With integrated hinged lid.
Upgrade to castor mounting
ice machine castors

Machine mounted on B.Z.P. corrosion resistant castors instead of legs. Two of the castors are swivel and two are braked swivel. The wheel is white nylon with a ball bearing. The machine is easily moved for cleaning purposes.
