Hoshizaki Crescent Ice Maker KM-40C-HC – Self-Contained, Air-cooled, 43 kg/24h

The Hoshizaki KM-40C-HC is a self-contained air-cooled crescent ice maker producing up to 43 kg of crescent ice in 24 hours, with a 16 kg built-in storage bin.

Technical data

The KM-40C-HC measures 452 × 610 × 838 mm (W × D × H) without legs (legs add 144-167mm) and weighs 39 kg net. Electrical consumption is 0.22 kW and heat rejection 0.58 kW at 32 °C ambient and 21 °C water, with 0.25 m³ of water used per 24 hours. The KM-40C-HC runs on 68 g of R290, GWP 3. R290 is a natural refrigerant classified A3, higher flammability, so the charge belongs in the installation specification. The published supply for the KM-40C-HC is single phase 220-240 V 50 Hz, with a voltage tolerance of ±6% and a 5 A circuit breaker. Functions listed by Hoshizaki: automated cleaning.

On board

Hoshizaki gives operating limits of ambient temperatures from 7 to 38 °C, water supply temperatures from 7 to 32 °C and water pressure from 0.7 to 8 bar, which is what the space and the vessel's fresh water system have to meet for the KM-40C-HC. Being air-cooled, it rejects its heat into the space, so the ventilation of the galley or bar has to take it. For water treatment Hoshizaki pairs it with the 4HC-H single water filter system and its 4HC replacement cartridges. On a vessel the KM-40C-HC is specified like any galley appliance: supply voltage and frequency, water inlet and drain, ventilation and fixing. This page carries Hoshizaki's published data for the standard model, and we confirm the marine installation details with the quotation.
