Hoshizaki Crescent Ice Maker KMD-270ABE-R452 – Modular, Air-cooled, 275 kg/24h

The Hoshizaki KMD-270ABE-R452 is a modular air-cooled crescent ice maker producing up to 275 kg of crescent ice in 24 hours. As a modular head it has no bin of its own and sits on a separate storage bin: Hoshizaki pairs the KMD-270ABE-R452 with the B-140SB, B-210SB, B-340SB; top kits: TK-8D for B-210SB, TK-8D + TK18D for B-340SB.

Performance and connections

The KMD-270ABE-R452 measures 560 × 625 × 610 mm (W × D × H) and weighs 57 kg net. Electrical consumption is 0.98 kW and heat rejection 2.44 kW at 32 °C ambient and 21 °C water, with 0.98 m³ of water used per 24 hours. The KMD-270ABE-R452 runs on 780 g of R452A, GWP 2140. Electrically the KMD-270ABE-R452 is rated for single phase 220-240 V 50 Hz, with a voltage tolerance of ±6% and a 5 A circuit breaker.

Installing it on a vessel

Hoshizaki gives operating limits of ambient temperatures from 7 to 40 °C, water supply temperatures from 7 to 35 °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 KMD-270ABE-R452. 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 twin water filter system and its 4HC replacement cartridges. Vista Marine supplies the KMD-270ABE-R452 for galleys, bars and crew messes on ships, yachts and offshore units. The data on this page is what Hoshizaki publishes for the standard model; we check the supply voltage and frequency, the water connection and the fixing against the vessel before we quote.
